To be honest, I was hoping to get a mineral sunscreen or one without white cast that doesn't show even when applied heavily, rather than a tone-up one. Here is my review after using it for a week. The color has a slight purple tint and the texture is moisturizing. It's not a runny formula, so there's no concern about it dripping when applied. It's fragrance-free, so there's no irritating scent. The application is smooth and easy to spread, thanks to the moisturizing texture. It doesn't leave a greasy finish, but rather a slightly powdery one. I liked that it doesn't stick to the hair much. Reapplying throughout the day wasn't an issue. Clearly, tone-up sunscreens tend to be noticeable, whether applied heavily or reapplied. If not applied properly, the tone-up effect can look unnatural. Make sure to pat it in well for better absorption. While it does a good job at tone-up, it's not sufficient in covering redness like flushing. The purple-tinted formula effectively neutralizes any yellowness, resulting in a natural tone-up effect. It may be suitable for sensitive skin. However, I can't give a definitive answer, as even though it worked fine for me, it may not suit everyone or could potentially cause irritation for others with sensitive skin.
ConsIt seems there is a lack of coverage for flushing or redness.

My skin is dry and prone to wrinkles. When I apply makeup, I first put on sunscreen, then concealer on any blemishes, and finally foundation. This sunscreen in particular has caught my attention as it claims to protect against fine dust, which is an improvement over my previous product. As for the fragrance, there is none. The lack of artificial scent makes it suitable for anyone to use. The formula is not runny - it stays in place when applied to the face or hands, making it easy to apply. If I warm the product up a bit with my hands, it applies more smoothly. After spreading it out, gently patting it a few times helps it absorb really well. After it's fully absorbed, it effectively neutralizes the yellow tones in my skin. When my skincare products haven't been fully absorbed, I've felt a bit sticky, but applying this sunscreen after my skincare routine helps eliminate that tackiness. It doesn't have a shiny finish, so I can just wear this sunscreen alone when exercising. Lately, I've been worried about fine dust, so I'm quite satisfied that this product claims to provide that protection. Spending time outdoors has been making my throat feel scratchy and my eyes sore, so I'm glad to have a product that can at least shield my skin.
Cons- The finish may lack a bit of a powdery feel. If you prefer a more velvety look, you may need to apply a matte foundation or powder at the end. - Compared to what you've been using, the coverage is lacking. It does a good job of neutralizing the yellow tones, but it doesn't make you look significantly brighter overall. (The image shows Dr. G on the left and Uique on the right.)
TipI highly recommend using this as a primer substitute. It seems to help balance the tone and somewhat fill in pores.

Among the tone-up sunscreens, some can make the applied areas look patchy and uneven by becoming too white, but this one doesn't turn overly white and the tone-up effect is natural! It's perfect to wear when going out without makeup. It's not at all greasy. Even though I have oily skin, it doesn't feel greasy at all. It has a powdery finish. If you want to wear a sunscreen before makeup, I'd recommend a more moisturizing type than this one. The sunscreen applies lightly and feels good to use.👍 Recommended for: Those who want their skin to look a bit better on days without makeup!! People looking for a natural-looking tone-up sunscreen!!
ConsRainy weather After applying sunscreen, a few acne bumps appeared. Not recommended for: Those looking for a sunscreen that helps unclog pores! This is not a sunscreen that helps unclog pores or anything like that~

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 the translation of the given Korean text into English: The color swatch (based on 21 skin tone, no redness) As this is a purple-toned sunscreen, the color was satisfactory for me, a cool-toned 21 skin tone who wants to brighten my complexion! However, I would recommend the newly launched Pit Green to those with reddish skin tones. With my 21 skin tone that tans to around 21.5 in the summer, the product nicely brightened my complexion! Particularly, it elevated my natural skin tone by half to a full tone, rather than making it look unnaturally pale, which I really liked. Texture and application The texture is not too thin or thick, and when applied, it feels watery and moisturizing. But once settled on the skin, there is no shiny or greasy feeling, which I really appreciated. And despite the moisturizing feel, it doesn't cause any tightness or discomfort on my dry skin. I'm very satisfied with the texture and application - it doesn't apply unevenly. Can it be used as a makeup base? I've tried using it with Hera Black Cushion, Fude Suede Cushion, and Chanel Healthy Glow Moisturizing Foundation, and all three worked well without any issues with adherence. It also seemed to prevent darkening, thanks to the tone-up function of the sunscreen. Longevity and sweat-resistance Given my job, I sweat a lot throughout the day, but I didn't experience any whitening or running, even when sweating profusely in dry indoor environments. While some transfer did occur when I wiped with a towel, it didn't look messy or cause the formula to run. And since it blends in so naturally, even when it wore off, it didn't look patchy. So I'm particularly pleased that it's sweat-resistant, yet still easy to remove.
ConsWhile there are not many downsides, if I had to point one out, it is the fact that this is a tone-up cream, so the coverage is limited. Therefore, for areas with significant skin tone differences or blemishes, you would need to use a concealer as well. It is understandable that this may not be considered a major drawback, as this is primarily a sunscreen product, not one focused on coverage. However, for those who prioritize coverage and pore refinement, it may be better to look for a more coverage-focused sun cushion. Additionally, I would suggest that it would be great if this tone-up sunscreen came in additional color options, such as a pink and an ivory shade. Alternatively, a dual-color cushion or a mini set with multiple color options would also be a welcome addition.
TipWhen using it, I found that patting with a soft and moist puff results in a more even application compared to applying it with my hands. However, it also applies well when simply swiping it on with your hands, so you don't need to worry. It can be used for the face as well as for brightening the neck area.🫧

Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsThis is a warm-toned skin with acne scars. 1. Usage experience As it is a combination sunscreen, the application was smooth and absorbed into the skin without any stickiness, just like applying an essence. After applying only the sunscreen over my skincare, I did not experience any tightness or pilling. 2. Texture The texture is like an essence - thinner than expected, but spreads widely with a small amount. Even when applying more, there was no clumping, and it absorbed into the skin like a regular skincare product. I tried applying a generous amount to achieve a more noticeable tone correction, and it still blended in well. 3. Color payoff Due to the thin texture, the color payoff is a bit subtle. Lately, I've just been wearing this sunscreen, and it does seem to even out my skin tone, but the effect is quite natural, almost like I'm not wearing anything. It might be due to the unevenness of my skin tone. I wish it could make my skin look a bit brighter. This very hydrating formula would be great for dry, dehydrated skin types.
ConsI wish the tone-up effect and coverage were just a little bit more.

The T-zone has a lot of sebum, and other areas are extremely dry and sensitive, but it doesn't feel dry or tight, which I'm glad about!
ConsHowever, since my skin is extremely dry, other than T-zone, it is not oily, but it is not really moisturized either. And since it is a sunscreen, the coverage is completely non-existent, and the longevity is also lacking.

Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsNatural tone-up: Among the tone-up sunscreens, there are some that claim to be tone-up, but this one is not like that, which is good. It shows a natural tone-up of about half a tone. Spreadability: It spreads smoothly and absorbs quickly, so it's convenient to apply quickly in the morning rush and go. All-in-one: This product has three functions - sunscreen, corrector, and base - so you can cover all three with just one product, which is a great advantage of this product.
Cons1. PRESENCE OF EXFOLIATED SKIN: When the skin has excessive dead skin cells, if the basic moisturizing is not done well, there will be PRESENCE OF EXFOLIATED SKIN, and it will appear whitish. 2. DRYNESS: My skin is combination, but it is affected by the seasons. In winter, it feels DRY, and as time passes, the DRYNESS of the skin becomes noticeable. 3. REDNESS NOT COVERED: There is severe REDNESS on the cheeks, but since the natural tone-up uses a purple-based foundation, the REDNESS was not significantly COVERED.

The tone-up sun cream doesn't have the typical thick, heavy feel, and it applies smoothly without any skin irritation!
ConsThe coverage is a bit light... But it makes the skin feel comfortable and helps control overall yellowness, so the skin looks great!!! Highly recommended for office workers who just apply sunscreen and go to work.
TipI quickly apply it before going to work. Even though it's a tone-up sun cream, it has good spreadability and doesn't clump, so it applies well!

However, sun products with a lot of oil can cause makeup to slide and make it inconvenient to use as a base. But I like products that are not excessively oily over time, are not drying for dry skin, have a moisturizing and smooth application, and provide good coverage.
ConsYou need to spread it out thinly by controlling the amount well. I applied a little too much and it ended up looking too white and cakey. Since it's for base use, it has no coverage to conceal blemishes.

I recently tried their new purple tone-up sunscreen. The texture is watery but not too runny when squeezed onto the back of my hand. It has a moisturizing and dewy feel. The application is smooth and it absorbs well. The moisture is sufficient, so my makeup on top does not become dry. The light purple color brightens my complexion and evens out my skin tone nicely. It's perfect for a quick errand run from home. It works as a makeup base, and I think even men could use it to naturally even out their skin tone. The tone-up effect is not overpowering, so it looks natural.
ConsThe coverage is not good enough to be used as a foundation, but it is faithful to the purpose of tone-up.
