This treatment is a unique green-to-beige cream designed to visibly neutralize facial redness on contact while providing soothing care and mineral sun protection.

What It Is

This is a standout in the Korean beauty tone-up cream category, specifically formulated to address pervasive facial redness. Unlike conventional tinted moisturizers or foundations, it utilizes color theory with a green pigment that adapts to skin tone upon application, effectively canceling out pink and red hues. It offers an instant visual correction, making it a distinct alternative to products like Erborian CC Red Correct, focusing more on immediate neutralization and skin soothing rather than just light coverage.

Key Ingredients

• Centella Asiatica (Tiger Grass) Complex: A blend including Asiaticoside, Madecassoside, Asiatic Acid, and Madecassic Acid, known for calming inflammation, promoting collagen synthesis, and supporting skin barrier function.
• Zinc Oxide: A mineral UV filter that provides broad-spectrum sun protection while also offering anti-inflammatory properties.
• Titanium Dioxide: Another mineral UV filter, it contributes to sun protection and helps create the initial green tint, which then adapts.
• Niacinamide (Vitamin B3): Supports skin barrier health, reduces transepidermal water loss, and helps to minimize the appearance of redness and blotchiness over time.

This formula centers around a potent Cica complex to calm sensitive, reactive skin. The inclusion of mineral filters means it is suitable for many sensitive individuals. It avoids common irritants like artificial fragrances and essential oils, maintaining a skin-friendly pH.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this actually blend to my skin tone, or will I look green?

This treatment uses encapsulated pigments that burst upon application, releasing a beige tone designed to adapt. Most fair to medium skin tones will see it blend seamlessly, neutralizing redness. Very deep skin tones may find the beige tint too light.

Is the SPF 22 PA++ enough for daily sun protection?

For typical indoor activities with minimal incidental sun exposure, SPF 22 PA++ is generally adequate. For extended outdoor time or high UV days, it is recommended to layer a dedicated SPF 50 underneath.

Can this be worn under foundation?

Yes, it functions as an excellent color-correcting base. Apply it first, allow it to settle, then proceed with your preferred foundation or cushion for enhanced coverage and an even canvas.

Will this clog my pores or cause breakouts?

The formula is generally non-comedogenic and includes soothing ingredients like Centella asiatica. However, individual skin reactions vary, especially for acne-prone skin. It is often well-tolerated.
