I apply the Beauty of Joseon Relief Sun: Rice + Probiotics sunscreen on my entire face and once that one gets absorbed I apply this one on the nose, forehead, and chin to reduce the shine/glow on those areas but leave the glow on the cheeks.
I think this combination is gold for me, specially for summer when I want a nice glow without looking oily :)

Was promising but did not work out. Broke me out and made the skin around my nose burn at first use (from a previous dermatitis issue)
