The tone-up effect is definitely noticeable. And since it's a sun serum, it has a moisturizing finish.
ConsI bought it because the reviews were so good, but it was a bit disappointing. My face is a bit yellowish and my skin is uneven due to blemishes, so I was hoping for natural tone-up and tone correction. But when I apply it, my face looks really shiny. Of course, it doesn't cover, and the unevenness is still there. I would recommend it if you have clear, bright skin and want to get even whiter, but not for someone like me with uneven skin tone.
TipI would recommend the Cosrx Tone Up Base to those of you who are looking for a natural-looking tone-up and tone correction. It even has sunscreen functionality, which is great, and your skin will look absolutely amazing!!

The pump dispenser is hygienic and very convenient to use and store. ✔️As a sensitive skin user, I was able to use it without any irritation or breakouts. ✔️There is definitely an immediate brightening effect. My naturally yellow-toned skin looks a shade lighter with the purple-toned cream. The application is smooth, the brightening effect is good, and the all-in-one sun protection and serum functionality makes it very convenient to use without having to apply a separate serum.
ConsThe purple cream and oily components don't seem to mix well, so it can get clumpy. The clumpy texture makes it feel like it's not absorbing smoothly, so I need to make sure my base is well-prepped.

The brightening effect is good. 💛 Moisturizing 💛 It has a moisture serum and capsules, so it applies smoothly and moisturizes the skin. 💛 UV Protection 💛 It also provides UV protection, so it's great to just apply this lightly.
Cons💚 Application The purple capsules and moisture serum don't mix well and have a slightly peeling sensation, making it difficult to apply on the face and it feels a bit uneven. 💚 Breakouts I'm not sure if it's because of this brightening serum or because I was tired, but I got a few pimples after using it, and I haven't used it much since then. It would be better if the ingredients were gentler, the application was smoother and more even, and it didn't have that peeling sensation.

I really like it, it's become my daily essential For dry female skin, it applies so moisturizing and softly Even for ruddy and oily male skin, I was pleasantly surprised at how moisturizing it felt The tone-up is definite, and it has sunscreen too, so I want to buy this again instead of a tone-up sunscreen.

Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.Pros✅ This is an honest review based on about 10 days of use from March 8th to March 18th. 😊 ✅ Some key points about the reviewer: Dry skin, yellow-toned complexion, not sensitive to fragrance ⭐️ Brightening It brightens the skin tone very well. I highly recommend it, especially for those with yellow-toned complexions! The purple-based formula effectively neutralizes the yellow undertones, leaving the skin looking more refined. It also gives a subtle glow, making the skin appear more transparent. Please refer to the photos! (I tried to capture the actual brightening effect as closely as possible) - Fragrance It's not fragrance-free. It has a distinct cosmetic? sunscreen? scent, but it's not overpowering. In my opinion, the fragrance is not irritating! - Packaging and Container The packaging is very neat, and the container is sturdy. I especially liked that the user manual includes usage tips, and the container itself is quite pretty! - Product Features I really like how convenient the product is. As someone with a yellow-toned complexion, I usually have to apply a base after sunscreen, which can feel heavy and cakey in the summer. But with this product, the process is much simpler, and I'm very satisfied! - Moisture As a product that combines sunscreen, base, and moisture capsules, it applies smoothly and moisturizes well.
Cons- Absorption There were quite a few instances where the product would 'slide' after application, which was a bit disappointing. However, if I applied it thinly, it wasn't too much of an inconvenience. - Moisture While it feels moisturizing upon application, I didn't get a lasting sense of hydration. 🥲 But the brightening effect is so good that I'll likely use it often!
Tip- Use the right amount ‼️ If I applied too much at once, it would slide or absorb poorly. 🥲 It's important to apply it in small amounts and work it in well, especially with the capsules.

Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsMy skin: 21 -> 23 shade?, Dry, Redness, Warm Deep It seems like my skin tone has changed from 21 to 23 shade since I've been traveling a lot last summer. However, it's not a smooth 23 shade, but rather uneven, so I've been considering doing some white tone-up. Pros: - Definite tone-up This tone-up serum is amazing. As soon as I apply it, my skin looks the brightest and best among all the tone-up sunscreams I've used before. Since I'm quite tanned, the brightening effect is even more noticeable. I usually don't use cushion or foundation, just concealer for dark circles, so I'm quite obsessed with having a radiant skin tone. In conclusion, I'm absolutely in love with this product!! I'll definitely repurchase it once I finish this one. And this isn't just because I'm a Hwahae Trial Reviewer - if the product wasn't good, I would have just written a few short lines. - No eye irritation As someone who always experiences eye irritation with sunscreams that only have organic filters, finding a moisturizing yet non-irritating product has been challenging. When I first applied this, I thought it would sting my eyes since I used too much, but when I used the right amount, there was no eye irritation at all.
ConsAfter reading other reviews, they said it's really hard to apply, and when I first tried it, I did pump out more than a 500 won coin size amount, which was too much and difficult to apply. Two pumps are just right to evenly spread it on both cheeks. The texture is really unique - it feels like clumped up wet tissue paper. So it takes some time to spread it evenly.
TipUse only a small amount by pumping it a couple times and apply it gradually.

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.Pros💙Moisture - As you can see in the image, the sunscreen and the hydrating serum are separated and come out in a fluffy, whipped texture. It is very moisturizing when applied, so there is no emphasis on flaky skin for dry skin types. 💙Fragrance - A faint, sweet grape-like fragrance is present. 💙Tone-up - The color is definitely purple-toned, so it effectively neutralizes yellow tones and brightens the skin with a pink-toned glow. 💙Anti-wrinkle - Compared to the tone-up effect, there is no noticeable wrinkle emphasis, so the finish looks natural. 💙Finish - After some time, it dries down to a comfortable, soft and powdery texture.
Cons🤍Spreadability - The serum and sunscreen appear to be of a texture that does not mix well, so as expected, they do not blend easily, and you need to rub it in extensively to spread it evenly on the face without any patchiness. 🤍Pilling - Due to the poor blendability mentioned earlier, it also does not mix well with other base products, and the rubbing process creates a white, powdery pilling effect, which does not look very appealing. (Can be somewhat removed by brushing it off) 🤍Irritation - While the product itself does not seem irritating, for sensitive skin types, the act of rubbing it on the skin can be irritating, causing redness and a burning sensation. 🤍Oiliness - After application, it leaves an overly shiny, oily finish. While the shine and oiliness do subside to some extent over time, there is still a noticeable greasy feel that would require the use of a separate powder to control.
Tip💛Dry Skin & Pilling - As this is a highly moisturizing product, it could work well as a tone-up sunscreen for those with extremely dry skin. To minimize the pilling issue, it would be best to apply a hydrating toner or serum first, and then use a very small amount of this product, followed by a light layer of cream if needed.

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsHere is a Hwahae Trial Reviewer's review. 💜 I tried out Editbe, the sister brand of Piia, with great expectations~ 1. Tone-up Effect The tone-up effect appears very naturally. Unlike regular mineral sunscreens, there is no excessive whitening, and it brightens the skin evenly as shown in the photo. The skin texture is greatly improved. This would be a good choice for those who want a natural skin expression. 2. Texture Since the formula contains 54% hydrating serum, it applies smoothly and moisturizes well. Most importantly, despite having capsules, it doesn't feel too thick when spread out. If you're looking for a skincare-like feel, this product would be a good fit. 3. Usage Experience As mentioned in the texture description, you need to gently rub the capsules with your fingers to spread it evenly. Despite having sensitive skin, I didn't experience any breakouts during use. The purple color base and the inclusion of skincare ingredients help provide a natural glow without darkening.
Cons1. Fragrance The downside is that the fragrance may be polarizing. My first impression was that it smells a bit like grape jelly... It's a scent that can be found in old sunscreens, so those who dislike it may not enjoy it. I'm also not a big fan of the fragrance. 2. Control For beginners, this formula might be quite difficult to use... There's no accompanying tool, so you have to apply it with your hands. When rubbing the granules, they can sometimes get pushed away or clump up. It seems to work best when the skincare base is properly prepared.
TipIt seems to apply best when the skincare base is not too heavy, maintaining the right oil-water balance. It may be more suitable for dry skin types, so you'll need to adjust your skincare routine accordingly. As mentioned, the focus should be on spreading it evenly with your hands. Also, make sure to give it enough time to fully absorb!

My skin type varies a lot with the seasons, but currently it is combination skin. 1. Definite Tone-Up Effect The tone-up effect is really noticeable and great! Among the tone-up creams I've used so far, this one makes my skin noticeably whiter, to the point where it's one of the best. 2. Multifunctional It's moisturizing enough for dry skin to use, without any flaking or dullness. And among tone-up creams, this one has a strong sun protection function, which is really nice! I honestly couldn't feel the primer effect, but it seems to work well as a makeup base. When I apply foundation after using this product, it definitely applies more evenly and doesn't look as patchy.
Cons1. Fragrance The fragrance is too artificial, and I felt averse to applying it because of the smell. If they could just change the fragrance, this product would be great. 2. Clumping Because of the purple particles in the product, I had to rub it in multiple times, and it would end up clumping. This caused skin irritation and a rise in skin temperature.

I'm so happy about it! But I had to go to Jeju Island suddenly, and since the delivery had already started, I couldn't change the address, so I had a hard time receiving the product. ㅠㅠ Since it was a hard-to-get product, I had higher expectations. 🩷Pros🩷 - There is a definite tone-up effect. As the granules burst, the whitening cream is formed, so natural tone-up is possible. - The ingredients are gentle. Looking at the Hwahae ingredients, it's a good product that even sensitive skin can use. - You can do UV protection and tone-up at the same time. It's a sunscreen and tone-up cream in one, which is great for those who find it troublesome to do both makeup and sun care. - The texture is unique but moisturizing when spread out! Dry skin types will probably like it more. - The packaging is good. It's a pump type, so it's hygienic.
ConsHmm... Did I expect too much? After using it for 3 days, my face flipped over, so I rushed to the dermatologist. I'm originally quite sensitive and reactive, but it could be because the environment changed suddenly, but when I stopped using this sunscreen and took medication, my skin went back to normal... ㅜㅜㅜ 👎Cons - I'm not sure if it's oily or watery, but it's too shiny, so powder treatment is a must.... So even if I'm just out for a little while, my face starts to feel itchy, and when I come home, my skin is flipped... 🥲 I was really upset. - (In my case) I broke out. I thought since it's gentle, I won't get any breakouts! But even though I took medication and applied ointment, it came back quickly. - The scent is disliked. It's kind of like an old sunscreen scent, I guess? The scent was not great for me. - When applied, there's a sticky, tacky feeling, and it leaves a residue on the hands, so you have to wipe your hands.
TipBut I still want to use it on my neck because it's a waste! I think using this product to match the tone would be better than having a yellow neck after doing my makeup! If others don't get any breakouts, they can probably use it well!🥲
