ConsPerhaps because I have dry skin, even after moisturizing thoroughly, it tends to separate over time. This might be better suited for those with oily skin.

After some time, it brightens the complexion. Experience: Despite having acne-prone skin, it didn't cause any blemishes. When applied to the neck, arms, and legs, it absorbs within 5-10 minutes, leaving a natural skin-like finish. There's no sticky feeling after application, so you don't feel like there's a layer sitting on your skin! Unlike other brightening moisturizers that fade over time, V10 had longer-lasting effects (maintaining a similar tone until the end of the workday). However, you might need to reapply due to pore-clogging and oiliness.
ConsInitially, it felt like it was just sitting on top of the skin, making it look unnaturally white. You need to apply and blend in small amounts for proper absorption! It's disappointing that it doesn't provide sun protection.
TipFor those with dry skin, make sure to apply a thorough skincare routine before using this product! This is a go-to for people who find foundation, BB cream, or heavy makeup burdensome, but want to naturally enhance their skin tone by one shade.

During the height of COVID when we were all wearing masks and didn't need heavy makeup, I mainly used brightening moisturizers instead of foundation or BB cream. It definitely felt lighter than 'full makeup' and I found myself reaching for it often. Now, after giving birth, I don't go out much, but when I do pop to the shops, I always apply either a brightening moisturizer or BB cream - I can't bear to go out bare-faced! This Derma brightening moisturizer is a dual-functional cosmetic for whitening and anti-wrinkle, and it's even passed skin irritation tests, so it should be suitable for sensitive skin. The application feels a bit like applying sunscreen. Of course, it makes your skin look much brighter right away! My husband, who has a slightly darker complexion than me, tried it too. He said that as a tone-up product, it definitely evens skin tone well and adheres to the skin nicely without feeling like it's sitting on top. Looking at him, I thought the brightening effect was quite strong for his skin tone, so he'd need to apply it down to his neck for a natural look. Even for me with my fair skin, I had to apply it to my neck for an even complexion (it does make you look quite fair). While it doesn't completely cover blemishes, freckles, or dark spots, it does even out the overall complexion, making those imperfections less noticeable. Since it's passed skin irritation tests, I felt comfortable wearing it all day - from morning until evening without washing my face, and I didn't experience any blemishes. There was some slight pilling in my pores though.
ConsAs mentioned above, after some time, you can see some pilling in the pores. As natural oils come through, it creates a white residue in the pores. This is more noticeable on darker skin tones like my husband's... It seems unavoidable.
TipThere's not much else to add, just apply it with your hands like you would sunscreen! And don't forget to apply it to your neck too!

The texture was similar to an emulsion. The scent wasn't overpowering or irritating, making it easy to use. The best part was how it naturally evened out my complexion!
ConsSince it doesn't have sun protection, I applied it after my sunscreen. Perhaps because of this, it didn't feel like it adhered well to my face, and I was disappointed that it settled into the fine lines on my hands.
TipDue to the lack of sun protection, I tried using it on my neck after makeup to even out the skin tone there, rather than on my face. I'm happy to report that it doesn't transfer onto clothes, and most importantly, it brightens and evens out my complexion naturally without settling into neck lines. I've been applying it to my neck after makeup ever since!

It spreads quite easily. The fragrance is absolutely delightful and really lifts my mood. Since it contains Vitamin C, I think it could be great for skin brightening too.
ConsThe most challenging aspect was that this product alone tends to accentuate dead skin cells. Exfoliation is absolutely necessary when using this. It also tends to clog pores, and when I'm out during the day, I noticed my makeup floating and clumping in various spots. Even when applied on its own, its staying power is rather poor. I think it would be even better if it had sun protection.
TipExfoliation seems essential when using this product. Also, mixing it with a hydrating cream makes it spread more smoothly and helps with controlling the amount used.

It felt gentle on my skin, and I loved the refreshing lemon scent!
ConsUnlike whitening creams that you apply before bed, this needs to be used with sunscreen in the morning, which can be a bit of a hassle. Maybe it's because it didn't pair well with my sunscreen, but after applying this brightening moisturizer and then sunscreen on top, I felt the tone-evening effect wasn't as noticeable as I'd hoped. This layering also seemed to make the product sit on my skin rather than absorb.
TipWhen used alone without sunscreen, I found that if you spread the brightening moisturizer well with your fingers, then follow up by gently patting on a foundation with SPF using a puff, it doesn't sit on the skin!

This is the first time I've encountered a product like this in years of being part of The Hwahae Testers. At least for my skin. The scent is inoffensive and fairly neutral.
ConsIt doesn't apply thinly and has poor adherence. As a result, it doesn't stick well and leaves a white cast, making me reluctant to use it. Moreover, the lack of sun protection is truly disappointing.
TipUsing a damp sponge makes it somewhat better. Tools like brushes are essential for application.
