I was shocked at how it matched the untanned parts perfectly! The packaging is innovative - an eco-friendly paper case. The color is a natural peach tone, close to skin color. I expected a peppermint scent, but while it's not minty, it has a subtle, natural fragrance. There's no eye irritation during application or throughout wear. It feels incredibly gentle on the skin. Every year in late August/early September, my skin tone gets really weird - kind of ashy. I diligently apply sunscreen because I hate tanning, but after a whole summer of buildup and when the weather cools a bit, you might skip a day... Just one day without it, and my face looks dull and tanned. Even with sunscreen, my skin tans easily. It's like my melanin works overtime! And it's not even a nice tan - it turns into this slightly grayish, dull color. When I first got the product and tried it on my hand, I used too much. The color didn't impress me, and it seemed like it might look greasy. For my first facial application, I applied it thinly over my usual sunscreen. Surprisingly, it looked matte on my skin. Even with a hydrating sunscreen underneath, it felt a bit tight in the afternoon and after cleansing (in an air-conditioned environment). Next, I used it alone. I had to go out in a hurry and it was raining, so I applied a thin layer by itself. My face had been looking dull from slight sun exposure, but this made it look bright and back to my original skin tone. My neck looked too dark in comparison, so I applied it there too, and it matched perfectly with my untanned décolletage area, looking very natural. Later, I tried applying two layers of just this product. It looked good initially, but pilled after some time. Applying the second layer after a 10-20 minute interval reduced pilling. I found that layering matte sunscreens with a time gap also reduced pilling. It seems to be a mineral, waterproof formula. Water beads up on the surface when it gets wet. Foam cleansing wasn't enough to remove it completely, so I followed up with an oil cleanser for my second cleanse.
ConsIt pills if applied immediately over a hydrating sunscreen. It also pills if you apply two layers of this product back-to-back. The dispenser needs improvement... it gets messy, and the cap area is hard to clean with a tissue.
TipThere's no pilling when used alone (single application). Layering with sufficient time between applications reduces pilling.

I loved that this is a definite brightening moisturizer that doesn't just leave a white cast, but actually corrects your skin tone with a pink hue. While it doesn't last as long as makeup products, the initial effect was fantastic. 2. With 'peppermint' in the product name and green packaging, I expected a strong peppermint scent and cooling effect. However, the fragrance was subtle and pleasant, and I really appreciated that it didn't have that typical sunscreen smell. 3. Most importantly, the application and finish were great. It absorbs well, and although it initially felt a bit rich, it actually leaves a fresh finish.
ConsWhile it absorbs well, due to the color-changing nature of brightening products, you need to apply it evenly. If you apply it too quickly, it might look a bit layered. Take your time and pat it in gently. This is my first experience with eco-friendly packaging, and I feel a bit nervous every time I open the cap. The soft, pliable texture makes me worry it might burst when I twist it. It would be reassuring if they provided more information about the packaging.

Unlike other sunscreens, it's quite fluid, which makes it absorb really well. The best part? It provides a natural brightening effect. Usually, even when sunscreens claim to offer a natural tone-up, they can still look a bit artificial. But this product truly gives a natural-looking complexion. Plus, the herbal scent is pleasant and not off-putting at all!
ConsUp until now, the products I've won in events have either been perfect for me or at least decent enough to use. However, this one has quite a few disappointing aspects. Firstly, the packaging is different from other sunscreens, making it nearly impossible to control the amount. Before I could even squeeze some onto the back of my hand to apply, it just kept flowing out, making it impossible to measure the right amount. While this product is supposed to provide a natural brightening effect with just a small amount, due to the dispensing issue, I ended up with a ghostly white face.

Due to the heat causing my base makeup to break down and darken, I applied this instead of sunscreen! After finishing my skincare routine, I squeezed out about a pinky-finger's worth and applied it to my face. It goes on so moisturizing that you could even simplify your skincare routine. The scent is not overpowering, and the ingredients are truly top-notch! The peach tone color blends naturally into the skin without floating on top. I mixed it with foundation and it pairs so well that I'm still using it consistently. I recommend trying a 1:0.5 ratio mix with your foundation! First off, the packaging is a truly unique eco-friendly container. I love it so much. Just be careful when opening it as the product can flow out quickly.
ConsMy brother, who has oily skin, mentioned that the product becomes greasy as time passes. For those with oily skin, I recommend using it in fall and winter, or applying it after a simplified skincare routine!
TipI recommend trying a 1:0.5 ratio mix with a semi-matte foundation!

The packaging is pretty and made of paper, which I found intriguing as I'd never seen that before. Just be careful not to crumple it, as it won't unfold easily! I appreciated the tear-off line for when you're nearly finished with the product. It evens skin tone naturally and makes your complexion look great. I plan to repurchase if the sun protection proves effective after a month or two of use. Applying it with a puff gives a beautifully smooth application.
ConsWhen applied by hand, it can go on a bit patchy. Perhaps because I have darker skin, most brightening moisturizers tend to look this way on me.

Eco-friendly packaging with a paper tube. Provides a natural pink-tinted brightening effect. Absorbs well with a smooth application. Features a tear line for complete product usage.
ConsThe paper packaging might tear. May not be ideal for oily skin types as it could cause pilling. The complexion may appear slightly dull after some time. Challenging to control the amount dispensed.
TipSeems more suitable for use in spring and fall rather than summer.

Sunscreen content makes it great for creating a dewy, glowing complexion More natural redness coverage than brightening moisturizer and lasts as long as BB cream!! No side effects even on super sensitive skin ***Vegan cosmetic!!!!! I'm so thrilled to have found an effective vegan product!! Highly recommended!! ***Environmentally conscious packaging!! - Package printed with forest-friendly paper and soy ink & product container made of paper for forest conservation ***A portion of sales is donated to animal protection organizations!!!
ConsPowder finish necessary if you want a matte look. Coverage isn't extremely high, so mixing with other base products is recommended for blemish-prone skin The thin essence texture can easily make the container opening messy
TipPerfect for a no-makeup makeup look!! Even a light application makes your skin look much better than bare! Just add a touch of foundation on specific blemishes for flawless results.

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.Pros(This is a review from The Hwahae Testers.) 1. Texture: As you can see in the photo, it's quite runny. So if you squeeze with the cap facing down, a lot comes out. You need to control the pressure well and apply it bit by bit! It applies smoothly and feels moisturizing. Not thick or sticky at all! 2. Scent: It has that typical mineral sunscreen smell. It's not unpleasant, just like most sunscreens out there! 3. Brightening effect: It definitely has one. I was worried because I have redness and it's said to have a pink base, but it doesn't make my skin look redder. Instead, it gives a natural brightening effect! While it doesn't completely cover blemishes or dark spots, it does blur them a bit. Since it only provides a subtle brightening effect, you might look like you have beautiful bare skin! 4. Sun protection: Summer's over and it's been raining this week, so I can't say for sure, but given the high SPF, I think it should work well.
ConsThe texture is a bit too runny, so even a gentle squeeze can cause it to pour out, which is slightly inconvenient. If you open it with the cap facing down, a lot of product gets stuck in the cap. I've found it's much better to store it lying down!
TipAs shown in the photo, you can cut open the tube when it's almost empty to use up every last bit. This attention to detail really impressed me. I'm the type who cuts open tubes to use everything, so I recommend this to others who do the same!

The vegan certification sticker meticulously attached added to its credibility. Upon opening, I was delighted to find the container made of my favorite paper tube material! It clearly showcased the brand's commitment to sustainability. Scent Rather than a distinct fragrance, it had that characteristic mineral sunscreen scent, which wasn't unpleasant but rather refreshing. There was also a hint of invigorating aroma, possibly due to the peppermint. Application When dispensed onto the back of my hand, it had a slightly thicker consistency compared to the trendy lightweight sunscreens. I was surprised to see a beige tint instead of white, despite being labeled as a tone-up sunscreen. This actually made it more versatile, potentially doubling as a foundation replacement. The absorbs well is excellent for a mineral sunscreen. Unlike some that feel gritty during application, this one glided on smoothly. It evens skin tone and provides light coverage, making it sufficient for those with good skin when running quick errands. Initially, it feels a bit rich, but I'm unsure if it's due to hydration or oil. However, it gives an instant glow! It sets gradually, resulting in a natural tone-up effect with minimal color difference between face and neck. Best of all, it doesn't transfer to masks, making it a perfect foundation-free option. As you can see in the photos, my blemishes and dark circles tend to be more noticeable when I'm tired. But on a less fatigued day, this sunscreen did a great job concealing my skin imperfections!
ConsThe only downside was the initial rich feeling upon application. However, it didn't cause any blemishes. The slight stickiness was just enough for hair to occasionally stick to it.
TipAs autumn approaches, a slightly rich formula might be welcome. However, in the current humid weather, I found that applying the Chorok Chorong sunscreen, followed by a touch of concealer for my dark circles, and finishing with a light dusting of powder resulted in a more matte and comfortable finish!

It's more like BB cream color haha Texture: The texture seems similar to BB cream - it's rich yet fluid. Applying it feels like putting on BB cream, which was surprising Scent: There's a subtle herbal scent that's not overpowering. To me, it's almost unscented, which makes it comfortable to apply Brightening effect: It doesn't whiten with a chalky effect, but naturally evens skin tone!! However, since my skin is already very fair (porcelain), I didn't notice a dramatic effect. When applied alone and after some time, there was a slight darkening. But this might be because my complexion is really fair. If you have very light skin, you might want to consider this
ConsPackaging: The texture is fluid, but the paper packaging makes it flimsy. When squeezing, the product tends to flow out on its own, which is an issue. This makes the opening always messy and it's difficult to control the amount
