Key Ingredients
FAQ
What's the difference between the blue and pink versions?
The blue version (Snow White Blue) neutralizes redness and brightens cool skin tones with sheer blue pearl pigments. The pink version brightens for a lively, blood-like flush. Choose blue if you have redness or prefer a cool, transparent finish. Choose pink if you want warmth and a healthy glow.
Does this leave a white cast?
No white cast. The blue tint is sheer and designed to correct tone, not sit visibly on skin. It uses chemical filters only. The Snow Clear pearls add brightness through light reflection, not opacity.
Can I use this as a makeup base?
Yes. The tone-up effect works well as a primer, especially if you want to neutralize redness before foundation. The formula contains 70% skin-nourishing ingredients including hyaluronic acid and jojoba oil, so it won't dry out under makeup.
