The green tint works to visibly neutralize redness, and gurus especially recommend it for those with rosacea or redness-prone skin as a primer or standalone treatment. The texture is thick and slightly grippy, so anyone with dry patches may want to prep well with extra hydration and a richer moisturizer beforehand; those with oily skin tend to find it works better. One consideration: the formula contains natural fragrance that lingers noticeably on the skin, which may not suit everyone.

"I love this Dr. Jart+. I've now got I think four friends that use this stuff. Feels very nice, nice light combo of ingredients and products. The one thing I will say, I hate the packaging of it. It's a hard plastic bottle, so you can't just squeeze to get the rest left. And it's a little bit on the pricey side."
I've Tried Dozens of Foundations - Here are the Only Ones I'd Recommend - Foundations & BB Creams
"My favorite is the Dr. Jart+ Cicapair Tiger Grass Color Correcting Treatment, probably my most repurchased foundation. It took me a couple years after Dr. Jart+ reformulated to find my next foundation that I liked, and it just happened to be this."
"I'm putting my makeup on like normal, the Dr. Jart+ Cicapair Tiger Grass Color Correcting Treatment. Just reordered a tube of it the other day. This has become my new favorite since they cancelled their other one."
December Skincare & Beauty Product Empties - Massive Amount of Finished Products!
"The Dr. Jart+ Cicapair Tiger Grass Color Correcting Treatment was also discontinued, but I love this, so I picked up three backups of it before it was totally gone. I think it's totally gone now. I picked up backups on the Cosmetic Company store, which owns Dr. Jart+, which is owned by Estee Lauder. I've still got, I think, three more backups left, and then I'll find something else. I mean, I've got other foundations I like, but that one from Dr. Jart+ is just so fuss free, I don't have to mess with it a ton, and it's got some sunscreen in it, which is nice."

It's just like the spatula and it's so simple, but I literally got like three more days out of my Dr. Jart+ Cicapair Tiger Grass Color Correcting Treatment out of it because of this little spatula, so this might be something to think about. Not necessarily super expensive, and that might be something you'll replace."

"Okay, foundation, I'm going with the Dr. Jart+ Cicapair Tiger Grass Color Correcting Treatment, and it's almost empty, so I'm just going to put it on my little palette here. The packaging of this makes it very hard to get the last week or two of uses out of it, but I can't let it go to waste."
Empties - August Skincare & Beauty Products I've Finished This Month
"Dr. Jart+ Cicapair Tiger Grass Color Correcting Treatment, I really enjoy this stuff. This is the fair light shade. I was doing some spray tanning this summer, and when I was spray tanning I was using the light medium shade. So this one's finished, I repurchased in this shade and I really enjoy it."
Sephora 20% Off For Everyone Sale - New Skincare & Beauty Picks
"I love this BB cream from Dr. Jart. They sell versions similar to this everywhere, however I have found the formula is not identical, so I really like the specific formula at Sephora. It's got a little bit of zinc oxide, titanium dioxide, a couple chemical filters in it. I really like the shade light, medium, or fair to light depending on my spray tan situation, it just depends on the day. I love this, no scent. It has fragrance in it, but it has no scent. I think the fragrance in there covers up the sunscreen kind of smell that you could get. But I love this foundation. I've been using it since it was in the previous packaging and I still love it. And they sell this similar at Yes Style, but I bought it from Yes Style and it's definitely not the same formula."

"I finished the Dr. Jart+ Cicapair Tiger Grass Color Correcting Treatment. This stuff was okay. I finished it, which was nice. I wouldn't repurchase it because of the price, but overall it was a nice product, and if price isn't a big deal, it was pretty nice. No fragrance or anything like that."
Morning Skincare & Makeup Routine for Summer - Dry and Sensitive Skin
"For my sun makeup, BB cream, Dr. Jart+, I really like this. It's just easy, it's no fuss. Although I might need to repurchase it because these go fast, this bottle will last me maybe 10 weeks. I really like this, but it's more full coverage than I like on a daily basis, so unless I've got something big going on, I don't feel the need for super heavy coverage."

"I'm still loving this Dr. Jart+ Cicapair Tiger Grass Color Correcting Treatment. I have one more left. For summer I think I like the Dr. Jart+ one a little bit more because it also has sunscreen. All my hyperpigmentation and melasma are mostly covered, not always totally covered, but they go away a lot better."

"I think I prefer the tint in this one a little bit more, but this one has four different shades, so it's a little bit easier for everyone to find an option, and it's pretty translucent, but you can make it work. I just put on the moisturizer with bronzer on underneath and it works. I have loved this one, I've been using it for so many years and now it's time we part. I feel bad because I turned so many of my friends onto this one as well, and now they're in the same boat."

"A good chemical sunscreen and then fifteen or twenty minutes later a good mineral sunscreen or foundation with mineral filters, even if it's not a high SPF like the Dr. Jart+ Cicapair Color Correcting Treatment, I think it's forty. I'm sure how I apply it I'm not getting anywhere near forty because I'm not applying it thickly like you would a sunscreen, but over my other sunscreen I'm just looking for a little bit of mineral filters to help protect against the sun making the melasma worse."

Beauty of Joseon New! Dayscreen Lightweight Tinted SPF 30 Mineral Sunscreen First Impressions Review
"What I really love is their Cicapair Tiger Grass Color Correcting Treatment because it is green tinted, helps to neutralize redness. It contains actives like Centella and niacinamide, and also there is an option with mineral SPF that kind of offers some protection at the same time. So if you're prone to redness, have rosacea skin, want a sunscreen, a color correcting product that you can use as a sunscreen and potentially moisturizer, this is almost like that one stop shop that is great to wear alone as well as under makeup."

Dermatologist shares favorite Korean skincare ingredients | Dr. Jenny Liu
"For those with rosacea, or who just struggle with baseline rosiness of the cheeks and are looking for something soothing and calming that also offers some protective properties but most importantly masks that redness, I really recommend the Cicapair line from Dr. Jart+. It comes in a few different products. I have it in the dropper serum, but it also comes in a jar that's a green tinted moisturizer, and this one actually contains a mineral based sunscreen, zinc oxide and titanium dioxide, SPF 35, and again contains centella. What I really like about this is the green tint that often can help to mask or at least reduce the redness. The trick to using it is you don't want to use it alone as your sunscreen because it's just too much, it's too rich. So you'd apply your sunscreen first, and then drop one to two drops on areas of concern after your sunscreen has been absorbed, and apply it on those areas, and once you massage it in, the green really helps to offset the redness. Really great for individuals who are more rosacea prone."
"If your skin is burnt and you need to help it get back to where it was, I really do love this. I've used it on my kids especially with windburn, sunburns. It's great to help reduce any sort of inflammation and calm your skin. It is arnica based."
"It has a beige tint to it that kind of blends into skin and neutralizes that redness, great for rosacea and acne scarring. I think it's zinc, so if you can't wear a mineral sunscreen without it going white on you, you might want to patch test this before you use it. It doesn't match your skin tone like TikTokers say it does, it just goes like a natural skin color. It's thick, so it's not for everyone, and it's a little bit grippy as well. If I want to use this because it does look nice on the skin, my issue is I use it on my cheeks where I am dry and my forehead as well, so I have to prep my skin very differently. I have to hydrate well, I usually have to do like a sheet mask or toner pads on my cheeks for extra hydration, and make sure I use a slightly thicker moisturizer just on my cheeks. There is a lot of prep, but it's a nice product. If you're oily, I think you'll love this."

Reflecting On The Korean Sunscreen Scandal. What Actually Happened & Whats Changed?
"A lot of people will argue that the launch of the BB cream by Dr. Jart+ marked the beginning of K Beauty's rising popularity in the West. It was like a skincare hybrid, makeup, foundation, and sunscreen that no one had ever really seen before, meeting a moisturizer. It was this kind of innovation that really propelled Korean sunscreen to the top. This melange of products really hadn't been seen before, and it managed to transform something that was nasty for people to use into something lightweight, cosmetically elegant, effective, and pleasant to use on a daily basis."

"This is designed to be a calming and soothing cream that, when you put it on the skin, has a slight greeny tinge to it that will cancel out any redness. For people that know their color wheel, their color theory, green cancels out red, so anyone that has a very redness prone skin type using something that just has a hint of green to it will kind of help color correct some of that. This is a firm favorite for so many people. I think it's great if you've got very redness prone skin and you want something to take it down, to use as a primer before makeup. When it comes to the ingredients list, it's fine, it's got a lot of nice calming and soothing ingredients, but for me it does also have quite a lot of fragrance to it. Now all that fragrance is natural, but it's present, and once you put this on the skin I find that the fragrance does linger a little bit longer than I ideally would like. This is one I actually bought for my mom. My mom has rosacea, she swears by this to take the redness down, she absolutely loves it. I personally won't use it, I haven't opened it because I've used it in the past and it's not for me, but she absolutely loves it. So I think if you've got very redness prone skin, got rosacea, and you want something to just really take that down, this could be a great option."
"It has this green tone to it and it has SPF, and we can never get too much SPF. I put it around my nose where I naturally get redness, and it tones that down, that color changes, and then you put your makeup on top of it and you end up looking so much better, it's really nice. I got the treatment done about a week and a half ago, and I still have some redness that's finally starting to go away, but my melasma and hyperpigmentation is starting to look more like freckles, so it's starting to break up. I have a feeling I'm going to have to do another treatment."
