When I first applied it, the texture had a slightly runny lotion-like feel. So when I applied it, it spread smoothly and evenly across a wide area, leaving my skin feeling moisturized and soft. But once I had fully absorbed it, the finish became matte and velvety. It was quite impressive. The tone-up effect is also quite good. As the formula sinks into the skin, it brightens my complexion just like a white-tinted tone-up cream would. The amount is also generous, so I can generously apply it all over my body without feeling like I'm wasting any!

The issue is that it doesn't provide any sun protection. So I'd have to apply a separate sunscreen on top, which makes the whole process quite cumbersome. In that case, I might as well just use a body tone-up cream that already has built-in sun protection. And it also leaves marks on black clothing...
