The 10-second verdict: A hydrating SPF50+ that protects and instantly brightens with a soft pink tone-up. Lovely as a dewy, glowy base under makeup. The tone-up tint and dewy finish are not for everyone, especially on deeper skin tones or oily skin.

What it is

A hydrating facial sunscreen with strong SPF50+ PA++++ protection and a pink-correcting tone-up that instantly brightens and evens the look of skin. The watery, essence-like texture leaves a dewy, bouncy, luminous finish and doubles as a light makeup base. It suits normal, combination and dry skin that want glow along with protection.

What reviewers say

Reviewers like the instant brightening, hydrating feel and how well it works as a glowy base under makeup, and note that with the right amount the pink tint looks natural rather than obvious. The honest notes: it is a tone-up, so there is a slight brightening cast that can show more on deeper skin tones, the finish is dewy rather than matte so oily skin may want powder, and it needs a generous layer to actually reach its protection.

What reviewers love

Watch-outs

FAQ

What does tone-up mean?

It adds a soft pink brightening tint that makes skin look instantly more radiant and even, a bit like a light primer.

Will it leave a cast?

There is a subtle brightening tint by design. With the right amount it looks natural, but it can show more on deeper skin tones.

Is the finish matte or dewy?

Dewy and luminous. Oily skin may want to set it with powder.

The bottom line

A hydrating tone-up SPF50+ that protects and instantly brightens as a glowy base. Lovely if you like a dewy, radiant finish, less ideal if you want zero cast or a matte look.
