Waterfull Tone-Up Sunscreen Serum BROAD SPECTRUM SPF 50 + Korean Sunscreen for Face, All Skin Tones (1.69 fl.oz.)

This has a really great non drying formula that spreads easily. When you first put it on, it will look a little greasy just like a normal sunscreen, but it does settle down after about 10 minutes. I like to put a bit of pressed powder on top if I’m wearing this alone. That being said, as far as the coloring: WOW. For reference, I’m very pale and cool toned with pink in my natural skintone. I never thought I’d ever find a product that’s too white for me, but this is it. Seriously OMG. If you’re someone that has a darker skintone, it might not look right on you, you’ll have to make sure you bring it all the way down to your neck. The formula is very nice, though, and it pairs very well with other products. I’ve tried it on its own, with blush on top, and I’ve tried it underneath foundation. I’ve experienced no separation or patchiness at all. I also think this would be a great thing to use for color correction if you have a foundation that isn’t your correct skintone.

This d'Alba Tone-Up Sunscreen has completely changed my skincare routine. It is so much more than just a sunscreen; it feels like a luxury serum that gives me an instant, healthy glow. The pink-tinted formula is brilliant because it naturally brightens my complexion and corrects any dullness without leaving a heavy white cast. I love that it doubles as a primer—my makeup sits perfectly on top of it, but on most days, I just wear it alone because it makes my skin look so radiant and even. Gives that perfect "dewy" look without being greasy or oily.

At first it looked a little too white on my skin, but after a while it toned down and blended well with my skin tone. I have neutral Asian skin and slightly dry skin, and this sunscreen is actually pretty moisturizing. I also use a serum before applying it, so overall my skin stayed comfortable throughout the day without much oxidation or darkening. It didn’t dry out my skin and didn’t sting my eyes either.

I’ve been testing the d’Alba UV Essence Waterfull+ Tone-Up Sunscreen SPF 50+, and overall I think it’s a good daily sunscreen. On my skin, it leaves a slightly white cast, but honestly I think that’s pretty common with many Korean sunscreens. I’ve tried several that had a similar effect. On the positive side, it gives the skin a beautiful glow, which I really liked. The scent reminds me a little of baby powder, but it’s not irritating or overpowering. Overall, I think the d’Alba is a good sunscreen for everyday use, especially for people looking for sun protection with a more cosmetic, glowy finish. However, I would not personally recommend it for prolonged sun exposure or intense outdoor activities.

This is the most perfect sunscreen ever. It gives a nice glow and smells citrusy. It's very moisturizing and gives a little bit of light coverage. My husband has repeat purchased this on his own!

I used the old version of both Mild and Tone Up sunscreens, the ones that are made for Korean market. Now that they are reformulated for US markets, I'm super disappointed. I'm going to break down for each sunscreen. Also, both old versions were called Sun Cream, and the new ones have Sunscreen on the tube, If you need to see the difference visually just by looking at the packaging. MILD MINERAL VERSION: The old version had only titanium dioxide, and was very hydrating and left my skin glowing for the whole day. And I have dry skin, so I enjoyed having that healthy hydrated look. The new formula has changed, and it has 19% of zinc oxide now. I was hoping it still had the same glow but with different sunscreen filters, but I was very wrong. The sunscreen became just one of many similar Korean sunscreens that is thicker than it used to be, though it goes on easily, but takes some time to absorb. If you have fair skin like me, it won't leave any obvious white cast. If you have darker skin, I think it might leave some white cast because it has so much zinc oxide now. Initially it leaves your skin with a satin look, definitely not glowing. I was hoping the satin look will stay for the rest of the day, but it only lasted for an hour or so. And now my skin looks matte. It doesn't look dry in an unhealthy way at first, but by the evening my skin starts drying out and flaking more than usual. I think there are other Korean products for dry skin that contain zinc oxide but still give you a healthy glow, though nothing gave me that glow that I had with the older version. TONE UP HYBRID VERSION: I'm bummed that they changed it. The older one was also a hybrid like the new one, but it applied like a dream, didn't leave any white cast, just added some pink look for a while until it absorbed, and then it just looked normal. It also kept my skin hydrated and glowing for the whole day. I got so scared that the mild version has been reformulated, that I went ahead and ordered a few tubes of the pink one. Well, you know what? They changed it too!!! Now they changed all Korean filters to American ones, and the sunscreens are totally ruined. The pink one goes on like a white paste, it leaves my skin white, my dry skin looks terrible with super large flakes coming off if I didn’t prep with lots of moisturizer and facial oil. The old version acted like a moisturizer in itself. The new one gives some glow but not comparable to the previous version. The white cast is serious with this one. If you get it close to your hairline, the white will not go away. With time the whiteness will absorb somewhat, but I still look pale. I’m not sure what the point of this tone up effect is now that it just makes me look whiter than I am. And forget about trying to reapply during the day. I looked like a clown with white paint on my face. And I have fair skin, too. If you're coming from some horrible American sunscreen to this, you still might be impressed, but if you're comparing the old version with this one, that's not the same product. MY VERDICT ON BOTH VERSIONS: Can’t use them and had to order from Korea directly to get the original version. Thankfully, it’s still available there. Just make sure you’re buying from Korea, I made a mistake and ordered from Yesstyle, and didn’t realize they were in China. They sent me this American version instead of what I paid for, which was the Korean formula shown in their photos. Still fighting to get my money back, but they are refusing and claim it’s the exact same product but in a different packaging. Horrible experience. I got spoiled with the original formulas, and these ones are very mediocre and just like other American sunscreens minus the bad SPF smell, these still smell citrusy. If I wanted an American sunscreen, I’d buy one, but I want true Korean ones, which these ones are not anymore. I understand they had to comply with the outdated US sunscreen regulations (that haven’t been updated in decades) to be able to sell officially in US markets, but there’s a reason why Korean formulas are superior to everything else. Now they are not.

Amazing I hope they never stop making it, protects you from sun, evens out your skin tone and leaves your face feeling hydrated

I work in a beach-area hotel, so I’m constantly exposed to the sun. I was looking for a sunscreen that not only protects but also helps even out my skin tone—and this one truly exceeded my expectations. From the first use, I loved it. At first, it looked like it might leave a white cast, but once blended, it absorbs beautifully and matches my skin tone perfectly. It gives a subtle pink tone-up effect, leaving my skin looking even, hydrated, and naturally radiant without feeling greasy. But what really impressed me was this: I was at the beach from around 8 AM until 7 PM, fully exposed to the sun. I applied this sunscreen to my face and neck at about 8 AM. After getting home and showering, my face looked completely intact—no redness, no sunburn, no visible damage. I even uploaded a video showing the results. What shocked me even more is that I used a regular sunscreen on my back, and that area did get noticeably sunburned. The difference was very clear and honestly impressive. After about a week of using it, I can confidently say this is one of the best sunscreens I’ve ever tried. It feels amazing on the skin, works great under makeup, and I will definitely keep using it daily. ✔ Pros: * Strong protection even with long sun exposure * Long-lasting hydration without greasiness * Natural tone-up effect * Fast absorption * No white cast after blending * Great for daily use and under makeup ❌ Cons: * Slight white cast at first, but blends in quickly Honestly, this is hands down one of the best sunscreens I’ve ever tried. I wouldn’t think twice about buying it again.

This product is sooo good and gave soft buttery skin

I liked it his cream
