Usually, when I apply sunscreen, there's a bit of pilling when I put on makeup, but not with this one! Love that the scent isn't overpowering! The lightweight texture absorbs well! The price is reasonable! Personally, I find that my makeup looks better when I use this as a base! It doesn't make my skin look matte when I apply makeup, which suits me well. I think it gives a nice dewy finish!
ConsIf you're looking for coverage, you might be disappointed! I think it might not be suitable for those with oily skin!

Although it's a tone-up product, it gives a natural-looking glow as it evens out your complexion.
ConsAfter using it for a while, air gets trapped and blocks the opening, so the product won't come out. You can shake it to unblock the hole before using it. If you don't close the lid tightly, the cream can leak into the cap.

It has good spreadability and applies nicely. As someone with dry skin, I like to use this as a base and then apply foundation on top - it creates a beautiful, seamless finish.
ConsAfter using it for about two months, the plastic part on the lid broke off and fell into the product. Now it keeps clogging the opening. I also occasionally felt some irritation while using it.

ConsI kept getting breakouts and my pores were clogged, so I checked the ingredients and found that it contained pore-clogging components.. Thanks to the Hwahae app, I now always check the ingredients before purchasing and avoid products with stearic acid that can block pores.

The radiance is incredible. It's perfect for foundation application.
ConsThe radiance is too intense. It's too oily for my oily skin. As an oily-skinned person, I have to use blotting paper or powder with this... I'm currently using the free sample, and I'm undecided whether I should sell or keep the main product.
TipOily-skinned people, think it through once more. It's a bit on the oily side. It got bumpy after a day of use. 😢

The formula itself is a hybrid, so it applies very lightly and smoothly. Among the sunscreens I've used recently, this has the best application feel 👍🏻👍🏻 I trusted it even more because Depa recommended it recently 🥰 Just one layer gives a natural finish to the skin 👶🏻👶🏻 This is a sunscreen that looks beautiful when applied before any foundation! + The packaging with a lid is great for clean application!
ConsIt's on the moist side, so those with oily skin or in the height of summer may need to use it carefully 🥹 Other than that, I'm overall very satisfied ☺️
TipSince I have combination skin, I just lightly swept some mattifying powder on the T-zone where it's more oily, and it finished nicely without getting shiny over time 🩵

It's good for providing an overall even tone, making it suitable as a base.
Cons• Fragrance It has an indescribable but slightly sour and unpleasant smell, so I had to hold my breath when applying it. I don't think I'll reach for this often, and if I do use it, I'll likely use it to match my neck tone rather than my face. • Usage It barely covers any blemishes, and it doesn't conceal the redness around my nose. It only covers about 20% of the imperfections. While it's quite moisturizing, it accentuates flaky skin, which was surprising. I didn't even realize I had that much flaky skin! It's more suitable for a quick errand than a formal event or gathering.

The color seems to be really well-matched! My skin has some redness and unevenness, but it helps to even out the overall tone with a beautiful ivory shade. I heard it has good coverage, but since the formula is so thin, it's almost like there's no coverage at all😂 And I usually don't like mineral sunscreens because they can feel hot and sting my eyes, but this one is a hybrid so it's fine! The thin, moisturizing formula applies smoothly without clumping, and after application, there's a lovely glow, but it doesn't feel oily - more like an essence glow. My skin looks great. I also really liked that it doesn't feel stuffy.👍🏻 However, since I have dry skin, the glow doesn't last very long.🥲 Also, the mineral sunscreen is drying (it feels like it's sucking the moisture out of my skin) and I can't use it, and even though this is a hybrid with organic sunscreen, there must still be some mineral components because my skin does feel a bit tight... It's not severe, but since my skin flushes easily even with a little dryness, it was a bit problematic for me.ㅠㅠ The surface looks incredibly dewy, but the inner layers feel a bit tight... But compared to similar products, this is probably one of the less drying ones. The dewy finish works really well for applying a matte foundation or concealer on top, but it did seem to slip a bit, maybe because I applied a bit too much cream. Even so, the coverage was pretty good and the tone looked pretty even despite the peeling.😀 Occasionally, when my skin's exfoliation isn't great, I can feel it catching a bit in the dry patches, but you'd have to look really closely to see it, and there's absolutely no clogging of the pores. I've never found a powder-type tone-up product that I really liked, but the formula and color of this one are nice, and I think it would be a great daily option for someone who just wants to use a bit of concealer for their makeup. I'm currently using a pure mineral sunscreen, and I'm using it well without any irritation, so if it works for me like that, I think this tone-up product would also work well for you.😘
ConsThe surface looks dewy, but there's a bit of inner dryness!!ㅜㅜ

The natural, glowing finish is lovely! +Great for dry skin with its moisturizing and smooth application +The natural luminous finish makes you look radiant, even without makeup
ConsThe natural coverage was lacking, so it didn't cover blemishes and pores very well.
TipI recommend this as a daily sunscreen when you don't feel like putting on a full face of makeup but want to look fresh-faced and healthy.

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsIt seems to be a decent tinted sunscreen. It applies smoothly and softly. The formula is a bit unusual - when you squeeze it out, it's skin-colored like a BB cream, but when you gently spread it with your hands, it becomes transparent and your skin shows through. Since it's skin-colored, it doesn't leave a whitish cast and doesn't completely cover your natural skin tone, which I thought was a good thing. After applying, it doesn't feel sticky at all and is moisturizing, but visually there is a slight oily-looking sheen.
ConsIt applies well, but sometimes it clumps or streaks. If you rub it in more, it evens out, but it's more noticeable if you haven't prepared the skin properly. The formula is nicely transparent and hydrating, but when actually applied to the face, the transparency means it doesn't spread evenly and leaves an uneven, splotchy look. As a tinted sunscreen, you have to apply a good amount to get adequate sun protection, but that can make your face look overly whitened. It doesn't just leave a white cast, but really brightens the skin tone, so there's a noticeable difference between your face and neck. And it stings the eyes a bit! For oily skin types, the longevity might also be a bit lacking. I'm on the oilier side, and by the evening, my forehead had gotten a bit shiny when I only applied it in the morning without touching up. The cleansing also feels a bit incomplete with just one wash, so double cleansing is recommended.
TipIt's not exactly oily, but there's a bit of a shiny, glowy look, so powder touch-ups are a must.
