d'alba Piedmont Waterfull Tone-Up Sunscreen Serum BROAD SPECTRUM SPF 50 + Korean Sunscreen for Face, All Skin Tones, Sweat Proof Formula (1.69 fl.oz.)

This has become my go-to sunscreen! It has a beautiful texture that blends effortlessly, gives a subtle brightening effect, and doesn’t leave a white cast. My skin feels moisturized all day, and it doesn’t pill under foundation. The scent is soft and pleasant too. I’ll definitely repurchase!

The d’Alba Piedmont Tone‑Up Sunscreen stands out as a stylish, skincare-forward SPF product with high protection, a fresh glow, and a luxe feel especially ideal for fair to light-medium skin tones. Just love this product!

This is a very nice UV protection cream. It has a medium weight to it smells like the softest orange for a short time. Just enough pink tone to help even and blur skin while providing moisture and sun protection. Alone it gives a soft mineral “sheen” that looks like a porcelain complexion. Can be used under foundation or worn alone. I highly recommend this easy to use UV protection. Has no unpleasant sunscreen smell, doesn’t burn my sensitive eyes.

Texture & Feel:It has a hydrating and smooth application, and absorbs very quickly. Because of that, those with dry skin might feel it’s a bit lacking in moisture. It’s not extremely drying, but it does feel a little short on oil content. That said, it should work well for combination skin with a dehydrated tendency. For oily skin, depending on the person or the base skincare layer, it could feel slightly heavy or oily.It gives a very natural glow—just a subtle sheen—and can look beautifully radiant. However, from certain angles, it might appear a bit greasy. Overall, if you like a dewy, glowy finish, you’ll probably enjoy this tone-up cream.Overall: It’s a decent all-around tone-up cream that’s easy to use daily without much fuss.

This d'Alba sunscreen is amazing ! It gives my skin such a beautiful, radiant glow—it’s like a primer and sunscreen in one. The tone-up effect is perfect for brightening my complexion without leaving a white cast.I’m also impressed with how quickly it absorbs into the skin. There’s no greasy or sticky feeling, just a lightweight, hydrated finish. Plus, the SPF 50+ protection is a must-have for daily wear.

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.

My favorite Korean sunscreen so far. There is one that I like almost equally. That is like a thick milky serum. But it is quite difficult to find, I have to get it from Korea and it isn’t always in stock.Anyway this cream is thick but spreads like a nicely churned butter. I have extremely sensitive skin, it will clog if I blink, and I can put this on 100 times on top of the first application and it keeps my face in tact and healthy, it doesn’t go out of balance. Very very good sunscreen

I wear sunscreen every single day — even on rainy days. I got tired of the one I had been using for years, so I decided to try this product, and I’m so glad I did.I have extremely dry skin, but this sunscreen applies smoothly and doesn’t make my skin feel tight or dehydrated at all. It leaves a nice glow — not greasy or oily — just a healthy, radiant look.After I started using this at work, several coworkers told me my skin looked better, which made me feel even more confident recommending it to them. The bottle is small, but it lasts longer than I expected.When I find a product I love, I stick with it for years — and this sunscreen is definitely one I’ll be using long-term. Highly recommend!
