- se************Dry SkinBrightening/Dark SpotsJul 14, 2025
The ingredients are good and the packaging is nice, but beyond that, I'm struggling to find any real positives... First off, the smell is just awful - it's like something rotten? It's hard to describe, but it's definitely an unpleasant odor. The brightening effect is barely noticeable, and it doesn't last long at all. The glow it gives is more like an oily shine, and after a while, it dries out completely. But it's not a nice matte finish - it feels like your skin is cracking. This issue persists even in summer. It's especially bad around the nose, where it really builds up. Since it's made by Difa and others seem to like it, I thought maybe I was applying it wrong. So I tried using my hands, using a puff, patting it in, smoothing it out, and even stepped up my skincare routine. But I think the problem is with the sunscreen itself. I really can't recommend this. As someone with combination dehydrated skin, I was hoping this would work for me, but it just didn't deliver. The lack of proper hydration left my skin feeling tight and uncomfortable. If you have super sensitive skin like me, you might want to patch test first, as it caused some redness and irritation on my face. The pilling around the nose is a real issue, making it difficult to layer with other products. Overall, it's not worth the hassle, especially considering there are better options available in the market that provide both sun protection and skincare benefits without these drawbacks. - so********Dehydrated SkinSebum/BlackheadsDark CirclesInner DrynessDead Skin CellsRecommendedJul 11, 2025
I've been using this product for about a year now, and I must have gone through around 12 of them. That's how much I love it! My skin is a combination of oily and dry, but leaning more towards the dry side. This cream applies smoothly without any pilling, and it seems to brighten my complexion the more I use it. The best part? It's always on a buy-one-get-one-free deal at Olive Young, which is why I keep coming back for more. I wholeheartedly recommend this product! The only slight disappointment was that the scent wasn't as pleasant as I had hoped. But it's not a deal-breaker. Make sure to follow up with powder after applying this cream. - ss****Dehydrated SkinSensitive SkinAcne SkinBrightening/Dark SpotsSebum/BlackheadsDark CirclesInner DrynessEnlarged PoresRednessDead Skin CellsRecommendedJul 9, 2025
I'm really enjoying this product because of its great ingredients. It leaves my skin feeling wonderfully hydrated when I apply it. However, if I apply too much, it can cause some pilling with the next layer of makeup I put on. To avoid pilling, try using a smaller amount and gently patting it into your skin rather than rubbing. This should help it absorb better and create a smoother base for your makeup. - su********Combination SkinAcne SkinRecommendedJul 5, 2025
I bought this brightening moisturizer with SPF because I needed one. It gives a natural, even skin tone. When applied in a thin layer, it works well as a base for makeup, allowing it to adhere nicely. Since I purchased it for its brightening effects, I'm quite satisfied. I've been using it for quite a while now, as a little goes a long way. If you apply it too thickly, it tends to pill. It starts to fade around lunchtime. - wh********Dry SkinSensitive SkinRecommendedJul 5, 2025
With the hot weather lately, applying sunscreen and then cushion foundation can feel so heavy! I searched for and tested various brightening moisturizers with SPF, and this product was the best! First off, it absorbs beautifully. It also has enough coverage to conceal blemishes and discoloration!! Even after sweating, my face didn't feel stuffy at all, which was amazing!!! There weren't any downsides at all. It even worked well when applied with fingers! The color wasn't dull either, which I really liked! It looked natural on my usual shade 21 skin tone! After spreading it with your fingers, pat it with a velvet-textured cushion puff for a flawless complexion! I highly recommend this to anyone wanting to try a foundation-free look! - ps********Dry SkinBrightening/Dark SpotsSebum/BlackheadsInner DrynessWrinkles/ElasticityEnlarged PoresDead Skin CellsRecommendedJul 2, 2025
The brightening effect is definitely noticeable! For those with skin tones around 19-20, it evens out the complexion to a beautiful ivory shade that's neither too light nor too dark. The absorption could be better. You need to apply it slowly and carefully to prevent pilling. It requires some attention during application to ensure it absorbs well. For the best application, use a brush rather than your hands or a puff. This helps spread the product evenly for a more beautiful finish. - dm********Oily SkinSebum/BlackheadsDark CirclesInner DrynessRednessDead Skin CellsRecommendedJun 28, 2025
Highly recommended for dry skin! It's definitely on the thinner side, which gives a beautiful glow. I have combination dehydrated skin, so I tend to get oily later in the day, but when I set it with powder, it creates this gorgeous, subtle radiance that I'm really happy with. It's much better at not emphasizing dead skin cells compared to other products. While it's not as matte as some alternatives, those can be harsh on the skin, so I prefer this one. Nothing particularly negative to report. It's a decent product that applies well. If you have oily skin, just make sure to use it with powder. This foundation seems to strike a good balance between providing a healthy glow and being kind to sensitive skin. It's especially suitable for those with dry or combination skin types. The fact that it doesn't accentuate flakiness or dead skin cells is a big plus. For oily skin types, it might require some additional steps like powder application to control shine throughout the day. - 10****Combination SkinSensitive SkinRecommendedJun 28, 2025
The Pure line is gentle, so even with my sensitive skin, I used it without worry. It has a moisturizing texture that absorbs well! For combination dehydrated skin, it might feel a bit rich. The brightening effect is just about one shade lighter for my #23 complexion, which I liked as it's not an overwhelming change. It seems to set quickly, so you need to blend it well to avoid patchiness. I was surprised when I went out after applying it hastily and it looked like it had clumped. You need to spread it carefully to avoid uneven application! For best results, take your time to apply this product evenly. The quick-setting formula requires thorough blending to achieve a smooth, natural finish. This extra care in application will help you avoid any patchiness or uneven spots, ensuring your complexion looks flawless throughout the day. - rj********Oily SkinSensitive SkinAcne SkinBrightening/Dark SpotsSebum/BlackheadsInner DrynessEnlarged PoresRednessDead Skin CellsRecommendedJun 26, 2025
I used to always get white blemishes whenever I used sunscreen, but that doesn't happen with this one. It also covers my pores to some extent, making it great for a natural, "no-makeup" look. When applied before makeup, it covers pores and gives a nice glow. If you have oily skin, it might feel a bit greasy in summer, but it works perfectly when used under foundation. This product seems to be a multifunctional sunscreen that not only protects from the sun but also acts as a primer, helping with pore coverage and creating a smooth base for makeup. It appears to be suitable for those with sensitive skin who typically react to sunscreens. However, people with oily skin might find it a bit heavy during warmer months, though it still performs well as a makeup base. - 4.******Combination SkinAcne SkinBrightening/Dark SpotsSebum/BlackheadsInner DrynessWrinkles/ElasticityEnlarged PoresRednessDead Skin CellsRecommendedJun 26, 2025
I'm on my second bottle, and it's a great product for a foundation-free look. Not only does it even out skin tone, but it also helps cover blemishes to some extent. I feel reassured knowing it's non-comedogenic. It tends to pill, and if you have even a little bit of dead skin cells, it doesn't make your skin look its best.
