Applied after skincare and organic physical sunscreen. It spreads incredibly thinly, feels super hydrating, and the glow is no joke (powder needed). Covers blackheads and small red blemishes. No darkening. Super easy to apply with fingers. The color is a natural, bright ivory that looks fresh. The thin texture contributes to its natural look. Even with my dry skin routine (toner, ampoule, cream, and organic physical sunscreen), there's no pilling. No lifting, caking, or cracking even at night, and it controls oil well. Pairs nicely with glow blush. The 40ml size lasts surprisingly long. I use about two pea-sized amounts of this smooth, spreadable formula. I've tried It's Skin foundation-free, Dr.G tone-up, Numbuzin Porcelain, and this is top-tier along with It's Skin.
ConsIf I had to point out downsides, the coverage is a bit low and I wish it evened out the skin tone more. Concealer is needed for dark circles and lip discoloration. But these drawbacks come from its thin application, which is actually a plus, so it's manageable.
TipSince it applies thinly for a sunscreen, I recommend using your hands rather than a puff. Use the wide part of your fingers to pat it onto your face, then gently tap all over. You'll end up with a thin, adhered glowy complexion! Applying with hands seems to enhance the glow even more.

It was truly disappointing. The only positive was that it felt moisturizing, I guess?
ConsIt makes skin look oily, wears off quickly, and has poor coverage... When removing it, it comes off in a messy way too.

I love how it evens out my skin tone.
ConsIt doesn't provide dramatic coverage. The thin consistency might make those with oily skin feel a bit greasy.
TipI layer this over another sunscreen. For areas needing more coverage, I use a liquid concealer for spot treatment. Finishing with a powder to control oil, it's surprisingly long-lasting and lightweight even in midsummer.

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. 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.Pros1. Gentle, mild ingredients - It is mineral-based, so it can be used without burden even on sensitive skin. It is gentle as it contains no fragrance, alcohol, or pigments. 2. Natural tone-up effect - It evens out the skin tone naturally without making the skin look overly bright. It applies well on bare skin. 3. Moisturizing finish - It does not dry out or feel heavy, and the deep hydration is maintained, making it suitable for dry skin as well. 4. Optimal for touch-ups - It blends in seamlessly without caking or creasing, so it can be reapplied over makeup easily. 5. Convenient portable size - The slim tube type fits easily into a bag, allowing for convenient touch-ups anytime, anywhere.
Cons1. May appear slightly shiny on oily skin - the moisturizing formula can feel greasy over time. 2. Not full coverage - it evens out the skin tone but has difficulty covering blemishes. It only refines the skin texture. 3. Average wear time - for extended outdoor activities, it needs to be reapplied multiple times to maintain the effect.
Tip✨ Usage Tips ✔ Use for touch-ups - Layering thinly over makeup can create a radiant skin expression. ✔ If oil control is needed - For oily skin, lightly dusting with powder at the end can make it look more polished. ✔ Layer thinly multiple times - Applying too much at once can cause clumping, so it's better to layer thinly multiple times. ✔ Overall Evaluation Highly recommended for sensitive & dry skin due to the mild ingredients and natural tone-up effect! However, for oily skin, it may feel a bit greasy, so it's best to use it with powder. This product is perfect for use as a touch-up sunscreen!

It applied well like a serum and the fixing was really great. The tone-up also worked well, and the cap seals the opening well so it doesn't dry out.
ConsThere is no coverage at all, so bare-faced makeup is totally possible. It may have a bit of oiliness for oily skin types, but it's fine with powder.

ConsI couldn't really tell if it brightened my skin tone The coverage also felt almost non-existent? It emphasized flaky skin a lot, and after just a short while, it felt very oily and greasy, which was uncomfortable In many ways, this product just didn't work for me, so I don't use it anymore...

So I chose this tinted sunscreen among the color-cosmetic sunscreens! First, the ingredients are good ◡̈ It's a good hybrid sunscreen that doesn't burden the skin I usually only use mineral sunscreens, but this one doesn't sting my eyes and feels gentle It's also quite moisturizing This could be a downside in the summer, but it was great on windy days Since it's said to maintain long-lasting sun protection, I feel reassured using it on days with a lot of outdoor activities ◡̈
ConsIt's quite runny I usually try to apply the right amount of sunscreen, but this one just sits on top of my skin.. So even when I reduce the amount and apply it in two layers, the second layer absorbs much more slowly and the skin finish isn't as pretty because it doesn't blend in well I bought this specifically to use alone without other makeup, you see. I didn't have high expectations for the coverage, so it's just so-so, but I wish the application was more seamless.
TipGently pat it in to help it absorb Applying too much will make it look like a fried egg!
