ConsTypical pilling issue of brightening moisturizers Risk of ghostly appearance if too much is applied Inconvenience of needing to apply sunscreen separately or mix it in due to lack of UV protection Contains potential allergens May accentuate pores Tends to dry out over time Contains pore-clogging ingredients
TipApply to your neck as well to avoid a floating face effect Less likely to stain collars compared to foundation Layer over a moisturizing mineral sunscreen for hydration inside and a velvety finish outside, reducing dryness over time Recommended for oily/combination skin types, especially in summer, and for those with darker neck than face Great for those prone to darkening - use before makeup for better results

The packaging was decent, and I was satisfied with the generous amount of product. While the staying power isn't exceptionally long-lasting, it's still pretty good. There's a slight issue with pilling, but I think that's because it reacts a bit with my skincare routine.
ConsThe only downside was the slight pilling, but that's really the only issue I had.

I pay extra attention to skin hydration, especially deep moisture, even in hot weather like now. ● Texture and Application: I used to think tone-up creams were thick and just made skin look unnaturally white. However, this Dermahan brightening moisturizer applies like a regular mineral sunscreen. It provides a subtle half-tone brightening effect that matches my natural complexion well. Although it doesn't have UV protection, it layers well over sunscreen without pilling. Just be careful with the amount - applying too much at once can make it clump and difficult to spread evenly. I recommend applying small amounts with your fingers rather than using tools like sponges or brushes. It doesn't transfer much after application and doesn't dry out the skin even after wearing it for a long time, which I appreciate. ● Texture: The texture feels similar to a typical mineral sunscreen. While it's not super smooth to spread, you can easily apply it by gently patting it with your fingers without needing any special technique. ● Scent: It's practically unscented - I could barely detect any fragrance while using it. ● Why I Recommend It: I often use mineral sunscreens, but sometimes their tone-up effect isn't quite enough. When foundation or cushion compacts feel too heavy for evening out my skin tone, this product is perfect. I personally love using it for a no-foundation makeup look.
Cons● Room for Improvement: 1. You need to be careful with the amount. Applying too much can lead to uneven application, pilling, and clumping. 2. It doesn't cover redness or flushing very well. It only provides minimal coverage for these issues. 3. If your skin lacks hydration or isn't well-exfoliated, it might emphasize dead skin cells.
TipMy favorite foundations and cushion compacts are usually a shade lighter than my skin tone, which can create a noticeable difference between my face and neck. I like to apply this product on my neck to minimize that tone difference when doing my makeup.

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.

The texture is rich, but it doesn't feel heavy or suffocating on the skin, which is great. Unlike some brightening moisturizers that can be too oily, this one isn't greasy at all. It's also non-irritating and fragrance-free, making it ideal for those looking for a gentle brightening moisturizer.
ConsThe one downside is that the texture is quite thick. If not spread evenly or if too much is applied, it can pill or clump, which is quite disappointing.
TipIt seems you need to make sure to apply the product evenly for the best results.
