A Little Goes a Long Way

Doesn't Cause Breakouts

If you've applied a hydrating skincare routine, one pump is enough to evenly spread over your entire face after morning cleansing and before makeup. If you're targeting specific areas (mainly T-zone and chin), regardless of your skincare routine, it's recommended to apply it after ensuring your skin surface is free of excess moisture. (Why? To avoid that frustrating pilling disaster!)

Those who use Clinique for their skincare routine know this: no matter which product you use, if you don't precisely control the amount of cream in the final step, even slightly, it can lead to a disaster during the primer or foundation stage! There's no other way to fix it when that happens. You'll have to wipe it off with a cotton pad soaked in toner, then reapply your skincare and start over.

A must-have for oily skin types! Just remember to control the amount you use. Once you buy it, it can last up to a year depending on usage, especially now with less going out due to COVID. It's worth trying. No blemishes or discomfort to speak of. If the price is a concern, you could compare ingredients on Hwahae and opt for a slightly more affordable alternative that works just as hard!

Even though I bought it in Canada for slightly cheaper than in Korea, it's still not exactly budget-friendly. Unfortunately, when I applied makeup over it, I experienced some pilling. Because of this makeup pilling issue, I ended up only using it in the evenings.

I purchased this along with the correcting serum from the same line. When applied, it gave a nice pore-filling effect that I really liked. Although it's an emulsion, it immediately provides a matte finish! The amount is quite generous compared to how much you use per application.

The price is quite steep... That's really the only downside I can think of.

As someone with oily skin, I bought this after it was recommended as a primer. It feels wonderfully soft and powdery when applied. I'm satisfied because it reduces oil production even after makeup application and minimizes the appearance of pores.

Sometimes it can leave a slight white cast. I've found that squeezing a small amount onto the back of my hand and spreading it gradually helps reduce this issue.

When I apply makeup after using this, my pores are noticeably less visible! It also helps control oil production. I received it as a gift and now I can't imagine not using it. Although it's pricey, I'm considering repurchasing.
