  Pros

  I repurchased this in the balm format since it's said to be more hydrating than BB compacts. As someone who doesn't wear heavy makeup, it's perfect for a light application.

  Cons

  There's absolutely no coverage, and it feels like it doesn't absorb into the skin. For my extremely dry skin, it's okay to use in summer, but in winter it separates and pills. As a result, it's just sitting unused.

  Tip

  It's suitable for quick outings when you want something light. I find it works best when applied by gently patting it on with a damp sponge.

  Pros

  First off, it's not heavy at all - it feels incredibly lightweight. Plus, it's moisturizing and I think the color is quite pretty.

  Cons

  The coverage is almost non-existent - it's more like evening out the complexion? Also, since I have sensitive skin, I feel like it might be causing some blemishes to appear.

  Tip

  I used it by layering a matte cushion foundation over this BB cream.

  Pros

  The texture is not at all heavy and applies lightly and thinly. You can just swipe it on and it doesn't look cakey. The color is a beautiful yellow without any redness or grayness. It has a transparent, lightweight feel that's perfect for a single application. There's also a slight luminous effect. The black case is also pretty.

  Cons

  There's no coverage. I use it by spreading concealer over a wide area rather than applying foundation on top. It's also not very affordable.

  Tip

  If you like Lancome's Teint Idole, this one will probably suit you well too! I've used both and they have a similar feel.

  This seems like a good option for a quick and light application when you're busy. It's enough to just apply this one and go.

  Cons

  The coverage is not quite as impressive as I'd like for the price.

  Pros

  As a beginner in makeup, I prioritized a natural look over heavy coverage, and I really liked how this product applied lightly and naturally on me. Since I have relatively darker skin, I often struggled to find the right foundation shade, but this one worked well for me.

  Cons

  While I don't have particularly sensitive skin and didn't experience any breakouts, I felt the coverage was quite minimal. It also felt a bit drying on my skin.

  Tip

  Many have mentioned that it can appear too light, but I found that using a damp sponge helped it apply more seamlessly.

  Pros

  It applies smoothly and lightly without feeling heavy, and it's just a pleasant application.

  Cons

  It doesn't seem to have any issues with coverage, caking, or sliding, but I ended up buying a product that matches my skin tone too closely, so there's no visible sign of me wearing it.
