Pros
My love, my L'Oreal, please don't discontinue and let's be together for a long, long time.. It has good spreadability and helps with pore coverage to some extent. There's not much difference. If I just gloss over that and go out that day, I'll end up regretting it and hitting the ground in despair.
Cons
The packaging is a bit heavy. This is so heavy that putting it in my pouch changes the weight of the bag in a strange way.. If I apply the foundation without drying it enough, it peels off like it's been wiped off. Ugh.. Let's get up earlier.

Pros
While I'm fine elsewhere, the pores on my nose are a bit too much 😢 I've loved squeezing blackheads since I was young, and now as an adult, my nose has become like an orange peel... When I apply foundation, it always clings horribly to the pores, causing me stress. After searching online, I discovered this product... Wow, I can't believe I just found this gem... It's really amazing!! If my pore size was a 10, just a few taps with this primer can reduce it to around a 2... And the foundation no longer clings either~ I think I'll be using this for the rest of my life!! It's truly magical...
Cons
There's no downside to it~ You just need to apply a very small amount and gently tap it on, because if you rub it in, something like eraser dust might come out, so you have to be careful when using it.
Tip
Compared to applying sunscreen first and then this magical primer and foundation, applying the magical primer first, then sunscreen and foundation works much better - the pores look smaller and there's less oil. There's also no foundation cling in the pores. Just take a tiny bit on your hand, warm it up a bit by rubbing, then gently tap it onto the larger pore areas.

Pros
I used this in late summer and fall. It did not cause any breakouts and the matte finish was nice. Even from summer to fall, it not only covered pores and wrinkles well, but also did a great job as a primer, without emphasizing flaky skin or causing the foundation to look uneven on blemished areas. The foundation also didn't tend to look cakey.
Cons
As winter came, the skin expression started to look very uneven and it would often cake up. The jar-type packaging doesn't seem very hygienic...
Tip
Don't roll it on, spread it out evenly by pressing it into the skin.

Sweeeet!

Pros
This primer is moisturizing yet stays true to its function. I wanted to use a primer because of my enlarged pores, but as I have dry skin, applying a heavy primer would make my skin feel cracked. This primer worked well for me. It covers the pores nicely, and when I use this primer and then apply blush, my skin looks smooth. The ingredients are also gentle, so I could use it comfortably without any burden.
Cons
During seasonal changes when my pores are very visible, I sometimes feel the pore-covering function of this primer is slightly lacking. It also doesn't pair well with products like a moisture flash balm - it can get pushed away. If you have dry skin like me, it's better to use a solid skincare base and then apply the primer, rather than using a product like a flash balm.

Pros
The primer function of filling in pores was great!!
Cons
If you apply it even a little wrong, it peels off and falls off like dirt, so you really have to apply it carefully. It's a good item to just skip when you're busy.

Pros
It's close to Olive Young and the reviews are good, so I tried it and it's nice.
Cons
It's too smooth... it feels like it's shaving the skin... I'll only consider repurchasing it if I can't find another product.

Pros
When applied properly with good control, it covers the pores well and feels great. It has a somewhat moist, oily-like texture that doesn't spread out on the hands.
Cons
If the application is not controlled well, it can look cakey and flaky. And I wouldn't recommend it for those with dry skin.

Pros
It doesn't quite fill in skin unevenness and large pores as well, but it does a good job of covering pores and the difference in longevity between days when I wear it and don't wear it is astounding.
Cons
If you apply too much base, it can get cakey and slide off. You need to pat it on well for the base to go on smoothly.
Tip
For dry-skinned folks who apply a lot of base, I recommend letting it absorb fully until you're not shiny anymore before applying. And you have to use it according to the directions here - since it's a cream formula, you need to scoop out a small amount and really work it into the skin with your fingers before applying, so it doesn't cake up or slide off like foundation.

Pros
While using a cushion foundation, I was looking for a primer to solve the caking issue, and I purchased this product as it had decent reviews and was affordable! When applied in a very thin layer, it covers the skin's unevenness and pores to the point where it looks like you have nothing on your skin. Patting foundation on top of it definitely results in a smoother skin appearance compared to before using it~
Cons
The fact that it slides off so much is just too much... I've tried everything, from patting to spreading, but 6-7 times out of 10, it slides off ㅠㅠ I don't know if it's my skin's fault... Moreover, when I applied it on top of sunscreen, oh my goodness... it came off on my hands like dirt stains ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ Even though I have a solid skincare routine and use a primer, I still experience this sliding off issue... And even though I do a triple cleanse routine (cleansing water - foam cleanser - acne-prone oil-free cleanser, with exfoliation every 3 days), I still get stubborn yellow pimples on my nose...ㅠㅠㅠㅠ
Tip
For skin types like mine that are prone to dryness, acne, and sensitivity, makeup often ends up looking cakey or emphasizing flakiness. In such cases, it's really important to have a gentle, hydrating skincare routine and make sure your skin is thoroughly moisturized and absorbed before applying a very small amount of product in a thin layer. If the primer and sunscreen combination still causes excessive sliding, you may want to try using one or the other. And be sure to cleanse your skin thoroughly but gently!
