My skin felt comfortable like with foundation, but it gave a blurred effect with tone correction and light coverage - I was absolutely thrilled! My skin hasn't been great lately, so I'm seriously considering switching from foundation to this CC cream.
ConsAs expected from a CC cream, the coverage isn't high. It's best not to expect more than a slight brightening moisturizer effect and some complexion evening. Also, if you don't control the amount well, you might end up looking ghostly pale. Those with skin tones darker than shade 23 should be especially careful!
TipUse a spatula to control the amount and pat it in with a puff!

When first applying, I was surprised to find capsules in a sunscreen, but they weren't noticeable as particles. As the capsules burst, they naturally brightened my complexion. Using it on my light skin (shade 21), it gave a natural brightening effect, about half a shade lighter than my skin tone. My younger brother tried it too, and while it appeared a bit brighter on his darker skin (especially when he used more), it wasn't excessive. I think it could be a great alternative to foundation or cushion for men as well. Unlike most sunscreens that come in tubes, this product has a pump dispenser, making it hygienic and convenient to use. It's definitely a product I find myself reaching for often.
ConsHowever, as this product is designed for a foundation-free look, it's best used on its own rather than as a base for makeup. When I applied makeup over it, I noticed some slight pilling of the base.

The most fascinating part was how the color adjusted to match my complexion as I rubbed it in. Once it dried, it made my skin look about half a shade brighter and cleaner, which I loved. I usually use various products like foundation, BB cream, and cushions, but honestly, while it's not quite as effective as foundation, I'm really impressed with how this sunscreen alone can even my skin tone and provide coverage! I've always been concerned about the large pores around my nose, but surprisingly, this CC cream alone filled them in. It's perfect for busy mornings when I'm rushing to work - just one pump and I can quickly spread it all over my face with my hands. It feels like a cross between sunscreen and BB cream. Even after wearing it all day indoors, it doesn't feel heavy, which makes me think this might be the true definition of a foundation-free product! Also, it seems to offer 24-hour UV protection, so I don't need to apply sunscreen separately, which is super convenient.
ConsAfter application, it leaves a slight glow, so if you prefer a matte finish, you might want to lightly dust some powder on top. For truly clean and smooth-looking skin, you need to apply it over a solid skincare base.
TipEvery morning, after my skincare routine, I just apply this. For any blemishes or spots I want to conceal, I add a touch of concealer, and voila - you get a radiant, natural look! For areas with visible pores, spread it evenly and then use your fingertips to gently pat in circular motions. This technique helps to fill in the pores completely!

At first, I was surprised by the white formula, but when I applied it to my face, it blended naturally with my complexion!!! I really loved this aspect. I've tried other sunscreens that claim to adapt to your skin tone, but they always left a white cast. This one, however, is truly natural-looking. Plus, it has a semi-glow finish that feels like it's nourishing my skin perfectly!
ConsIf you apply too much slippery product during the toner step before the sunscreen, you might see some pilling. Compared to regular foundation, it's relatively more prone to pilling!
TipI think it's best to keep the toner step as light as possible! Since this is a type that changes color naturally as you rub it in, it's difficult to pat it on with a cushion from the start. If you finish with a sticky toner or one that hasn't absorbed properly, you might see some pilling. So, try to finish with a light layer, then spread the sunscreen thinly with your hands along your skin texture, and finally pat with a cushion. This definitely improves adherence and helps it absorb into the skin better!

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.ProsUsed for about 2 weeks or more: 1. Texture: White with apricot-colored capsules that naturally blend when applied, brightening the complexion by half to one tone. It's not a fixing formula, so it transfers when touched, but it evens skin tone beautifully without being overly drying. 2. Skin type: Suitable for combination skin, but likely fine for dry skin too. Best for combination, but versatile enough for most skin types. 3. Good ingredients, doesn't cause blemishes. 4. Removes easily without residue. 5. No eye irritation. 6. Doesn't feel heavy on the skin. 7. Maintains a bright complexion (without touch-ups) from 7:30 AM to 7 PM. 8. Doesn't melt off even when sweating during exercise. 9. Great for correcting redness around the nose. 10. Nearly fragrance-free, no lingering scent. 11. Hygienic squeeze tube packaging. Best feature: Perfect for a foundation-free look! Evens out skin tone and applies smoothly with just your fingers - no tools needed.
Cons1. Don't expect high coverage: Freckles still show through, but it handles nose redness well. 2. Not a fixing formula, so it can transfer. 3. Might look a bit cakey by evening? After 7 hours without touch-ups, my sister noticed my cheeks looked a bit off when I got home. This may vary person to person (Sorry, my camera's broken so I can't show good photos).
Tip1. I applied it after letting my hydrating serum and moisturizer absorb well, but it still looked a bit cakey by evening. Recommend reapplying during the day. 2. The transfer isn't too bothersome (cushions transfer too), but if it bothers you, try a setting spray (So Natural's is good). 3. Recommended for those wanting a foundation-free product with a natural but brightened complexion. 4. Applies well with fingers, but using a puff might give slightly better coverage if desired. 5. Use concealer on areas where you want more coverage. Very satisfied overall!

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.ProsFirst off, I was lucky enough to be selected as one of The Hwahae Testers to try this product. I generally prefer moisturizing skincare products, and my skin type is combination dehydrated. Since I've been using a hydrating sunscreen, I wanted something to cover minor blemishes on days when I didn't feel like wearing makeup. That's how I naturally started using brightening moisturizers too (I noticed that a brighter complexion made imperfections less noticeable). While I got used to this routine, honestly, there were times when even that felt like too much effort. That's when this product really shined - it was so convenient to just apply this one thing! The photos don't do it justice, but once you apply it, you get this beautiful hydrated glow! Not greasy, just moisturized! And with SPF50+ PA++++, it's got sun protection covered too. The texture is somewhat like an emulsion, and it evens out your skin tone naturally. While it's not heavy-duty coverage, it does provide a natural-looking cover as it evens out your complexion. If I had to nitpick, I prefer a slightly more translucent feel, so while it's sufficiently hydrating and I'm very satisfied overall, I wish it was a bit more moisturizing (like a serum). This is just my personal preference for a more fluid, hydrating application, but I think most people will be perfectly happy with it! I love the glow after application, but the texture itself isn't my ideal... That's why I took off one star, but it's still really good! The fact that I used it daily despite it not being my preferred texture says it all. It's great for those times when you're not quite ready to show your bare face to your boyfriend. It would also be perfect for those who go for light runs and want to look a bit more put-together than completely bare-faced! My photo skills don't do it justice, but it really does give you a glow in real life. I like it!
ConsI wish the texture was a bit more hydrating when applying. It feels moisturizing once it's on, but during application, it's hard to tell. If you're someone who prefers very hydrating formulas, you might find this slightly lacking.

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- Application: It applies very smoothly and feels incredibly moisturizing. The absorbs well is quite good. I think it feels even better because the brightening moisturizers I've used before didn't have great application. - Longevity: It lasts about half a day? Since it's a sunscreen, when used alone, I needed to reapply in the afternoon. It's a bit rich, so it tends to leave marks if you touch your face. - Brightening effect: It naturally brightens the complexion by about half a shade. It doesn't dramatically lighten your skin. - Blemishes and irritation: I'm prone to occasional blemishes, but using this didn't cause any additional breakouts or irritation. - Overall: I recommend this to those who want a natural, slight brightening effect. It's on the richer side, so those with oily skin will definitely need to use powder. It does transfer and leave marks a bit.
ConsThe packaging could be better. The puff dispenses very little product. You have to press it several times to get enough out. The puff and lid are quite bulky.
TipI have combination dehydrated skin prone to deep dryness, so when I applied this alone, I felt it was a bit rich and had to set it with powder.

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.ProsUsage period: About 2 weeks Texture: Initially feels like an emulsion, but becomes slightly more firm as you apply it Scent: Not too strong, slightly fresh and powdery Packaging: Tube with pump Effectiveness: The brightening effect is definitely good. As you can see in the attached photo, it somewhat neutralizes redness and brightens the complexion without being overwhelming. It's perfect for days when you want a lighter makeup look.
ConsPersonally, I found there were more disappointing aspects than positive ones in this trial. First, I should mention that I have oily skin, so even a slight increase in oil makes my skin look shiny immediately! Oil content: While it feels like the texture becomes more powdery as you apply it, once it's on the skin, there's a noticeable shine. Especially around the philtrum, sides of the nose, and inner corners of the eyes, the shine becomes quite intense, necessitating powder application. Pore-clogging & makeup separation: One day I used it as a makeup base, and after applying cushion foundation over it, I noticed significantly more visible pores compared to using cushion alone. Also, as the day went on, my skin felt dry and the cushion foundation started to separate badly. I wouldn't recommend this product as a base - it's probably best used on its own! Texture becomes firmer as you apply: If this product had a better balance of moisture to match its oil content, I would have been less disappointed. Despite the shininess, it wasn't as hydrating as expected and felt quite dry, which was unfortunate. This made it somewhat difficult to apply evenly, requiring a bit of technique! So at first, I ended up with a slightly patchy application... haha.
TipIMPORTANT: Apply a generous layer of hydrating skincare before using this! Also, don't apply it immediately after your skincare routine, but wait until your skin feels slightly dry to touch to avoid pilling. I tried applying it both with hands and a puff, but I think gently patting it on with your hands works better than using a cushion puff. If you do use a puff, a silicone one might work better! For those with oily skin like mine, I recommend using this in combination with powder!

Smooth application - Applies softly like a cream and adheres naturally to the skin Natural brightening - Evens out skin tone without white cast, giving a lively appearance Suitable for sensitive skin - Maintains comfort all day without redness or blemishes Sunscreen + base function - Allows for skin perfection without additional foundation
ConsSlight richness - As others have mentioned, it may cause a bit of shine in the T-zone for oily skin types. Touch up with a puff if needed!
TipLayer small amounts multiple times - Rather than applying a lot at once, layering thinly 2-3 times improves adherence and longevity Use as a base substitute - In a rush, you can complete your makeup by applying just this sunscreen and adding color cosmetics

It really elevates my complexion as if I'm wearing makeup, creating a beautiful skin appearance that's perfect for daily use without feeling heavy.
ConsAs someone with naturally oily skin, I'm a bit disappointed that some shine starts to come through in the afternoon.
TipBefore applying this sunscreen, make sure to thoroughly absorb your toner and other skincare products into your skin. This way, it won't float on top, pill, or slide around - it works great!
