It absorbs so well that it feels like you're applying a hydrating moisturizer.
ConsAs time passes, it seems to cause a bit of shine and deep dryness.

It seems challenging to find brightening moisturizers with good ingredients, so I've mainly used sunscreens with a white cast. As someone who's used Cell Fusion C Laser Sunscreen 100 for over a decade, going through dozens of tubes, I had faith and expectations for the brand. Before applying for the Hwahae Testers, I researched the ingredients and was completely impressed! Here's my review after two weeks of use: (Among brightening moisturizers) The ingredients are excellent. No blemishes. No eye irritation. Cleanses well (using cleansing water). Brightens complexion wonderfully. (Considering I just returned from a month in a hot country with very tanned skin, my face became noticeably brighter) No pilling or uneven application on the skin.
ConsRecommended for dry, normal, and combination skin, but not for oily skin types. My T-zone is combination to oily, and it started to shine after just an hour. My forehead was so glossy that when I used blotting paper, it only removed product from the T-zone... Anyway, that's how it went...
TipIt has a somewhat rich texture, and since it doesn't emphasize dead skin cells, it's better to keep your skincare routine light (just toner and emulsion) to maintain the brightening effect longer. Blotting paper comparison: Left: Water-Fit Tone-Up Sun Base, Right: Laser Sunscreen 100 The Water-Fit Tone-Up Sun Base felt more hydrating. The Laser Sunscreen 100 was richer in oils.

Unlike typical sunscreens that leave a white cast, this one gives a beautiful pink-beige tint that's perfect for a foundation-free look! I love how it applies smoothly with a super hydrating and glossy finish. What's even better is that it doesn't leave my skin feeling dry or tight as time passes.
ConsWhile I appreciated its moisturizing properties, it felt a bit too rich for my combination dehydrated skin, making the glow slightly overwhelming when used alone. I'd recommend this for dry skin types when used by itself, but it might not be ideal for those with oily skin!
TipI found a great solution though! Mixing it with a slightly drier sunscreen and adding a touch of concealer/corrector creates a more natural and beautiful skin finish than foundation alone. I highly recommend trying this method! When I wore it like this, someone even complimented me on my skin's amazing glow, asking what I had applied. Here's my perfect glowing skin recipe: 1 part Cell Fusion C tone-up base, 0.5 part of a drier sunscreen I wasn't using, and 0.5 part concealer/corrector. It's truly a honey-like glow combination that works hard for your complexion!

I've tried both regular and brightening moisturizer sunscreens from Cell Fusion C, which are quite popular, but I wasn't particularly impressed with how they felt on my skin. However, this new brightening moisturizer sunbase is a game-changer! It applies as smoothly and lightly as a basic emulsion or hydrating cream. What's more, it doesn't dry out or cake up over time, but naturally brightens your complexion. It makes your skin look clean and beautiful. With high SPF and PA ratings, you don't have to worry about sun damage. I think this might be the best sunscreen and base I've ever used. It's definitely worth spending your own money on!
ConsIf your main goal is to dramatically brighten your skin tone, you might find this product slightly disappointing. The brightening effect is subtle and natural rather than giving you that stark, porcelain-like finish. So if you're after a more dramatic effect, you might want to look elsewhere. Also, it seems to develop a slight oiliness as time passes. The scent... well, it smells a bit like dish soap. However, the fragrance isn't overpowering, so it shouldn't be a major issue during use.
TipIf you already have good skin, this product alone should be enough to give you that coveted 'honey skin' look. Alternatively, you could apply this sunbase and then lightly dab concealer or cushion foundation only on areas that need extra coverage, like blemishes or pores. This approach will make your skin look amazing!

Packaging Great that it doesn't leak and pumps out just the right amount 2. Texture Light consistency that applies like a hydrating moisturizer 3. Hydration Noticeably more hydrating than other brightening moisturizers, but the moistness doesn't linger after makeup application 4. Brightening effect For fair skin, it subtly brightens the complexion 5. Scent Has a typical brightening sunscreen fragrance, but it's not overpowering when applied
ConsExperienced a slight tingling sensation when applied to blemish-prone areas Lacks coverage for use as a foundation-free product, and doesn't leave a pretty glow on the skin (appears slightly shiny, but not actually greasy)

This sunscreen base product gives a natural glow and brightens the complexion. I dislike overly shimmery brightening bases, but this one gives just enough glow to make your skin look healthy - like you've applied a subtle highlighter! Despite having sensitive skin, I didn't experience any blemishes after using this product. It has that distinctive vitamin scent typical of skincare products containing vitamins. While some products can look too white and sit on the skin, this one absorbs well, feels moisturizing, and naturally brightens the complexion by about half a shade.
ConsAfter wearing it for a while, the U-zone and T-zone become quite oily. I'd recommend this more for those with dry skin rather than oily skin types. Don't expect too much in terms of brightening effects. It's best for those who want a moisturizing sunscreen alternative that provides a subtle, natural half-shade brightening effect.
TipPro tip: For a naturally glowy skin look, you can use this as a highlighter alternative. Apply it to the bridge of your nose, center of your forehead, and cheek areas where you'd normally apply blush, either before or after foundation.

Cons* Texture: For those with very oily skin, it becomes greasy... and quite quickly too. Not sure how it would work for dry skin types * Blemishes: After just 2 tests, my face had a small bump party... Even though I cleansed really thoroughly * Color: It claims to brighten, but for someone with already fair cool-toned skin, it only slightly brightens? Please check the swatch photo on the back of my hand
TipThose with oily skin types should use this product with caution

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.ProsAs a beauty novice, I suspect I have sensitive combination dehydrated skin. Before trying this product, I used Cellfusion C's sunscreen, which was popular but didn't suit me, causing small bumps on my skin. However, I've been using Cellfusion C's Anti-bac Cleansing Gel successfully, so I was excited to try this sunscreen as a Hwahae Tester, hoping to find my holy grail sunscreen! The emulsion-like texture absorbs well! After application, it feels slightly powdery after a few minutes, allowing other makeup to be applied without pilling. Unlike other products that can clump or separate when mixed with sunscreen, this truly acts like a base product! I don't usually wear much makeup due to laziness, but this product brightens my skin, making it perfect for light outings! I'm very satisfied with the high SPF - gotta protect my precious skin!
ConsWhen I first used it on a cooler day, perhaps due to my foundation, I didn't notice much oiliness. However, on a recent hot day when I only applied this product, my face was extremely shiny when I returned home. I'd like to try the purple product in this line, which is said to have a matte finish, for the hot summer months. Initially, I didn't experience any blemishes or burning sensation, but with continued use, my skin became bumpy, similar to when I used the Cellfusion C sunscreen. I'm currently not using it to determine if it's due to this product or my skin condition, as I haven't changed any other skincare products. While these drawbacks may vary depending on individual skin types, based on my personal experience and satisfaction, I've deducted one star due to the blemishes.
TipIt's more of a subtle brightening effect rather than a full tone-up, which might be hit or miss depending on the person. As I was hoping for more of a tone-up effect, I wasn't satisfied with just one layer, but applying two layers did noticeably brighten my complexion.

While it's called 'Water Fit', it seems more like that due to its clear color rather than its hydration (it's actually more rich than hydrating). Among the brightening moisturizer sunscreens I've tried, this is the first one that doesn't cause deep dryness. I'm using it comfortably, almost like applying a CC cream.
ConsIt's on the richer side, so powder on the T-zone is a must, and you'll need to use blotting paper on the U-zone periodically. However, I found the richness beneficial as it prevented my skin from feeling dry. The product packaging looks a bit outdated.
TipThese days, I finish my base makeup by applying a layer all over, then an extra layer on my cheeks, spot-concealing where needed, and setting my T-zone with powder. It applies well with a puff, but it's just as easy to apply with your fingers!

The glow-type formula has a nice absorbs. It's not watery thin, but applies smoothly. 2. It has a slight brightening moisturizer effect. Especially when used alone, it subtly evens skin tone. Personally, I found the complexion looks better and more satisfying when used alone rather than as a base under foundation.
Cons1. For my T-zone that tends to get oily after makeup, this product causes more oil production compared to other sunscreens. Despite being marketed as water-based, it feels richer than expected when applying. It might work well for those with super sensitive skin. 2. It's not a sunscreen substitute, but rather seems to function as a sun base and makeup base. Applying this over sunscreen might make your skin feel heavy.
