Pros
I received the gift. It seems to have fine pearls in it, and I can definitely feel the highlighter effect. The color is also nice, like a peach tone.
Cons
It's heavy, and when I apply it, it makes my skin feel dry. When I apply it under my eyes, the makeup seems to flake, and it makes my skin even drier. After a few applications, I stop using it. Especially considering the price, it's too expensive. You have to twist it to use it, but it doesn't come out at all, and when it does come out all at once, it's really frustrating.

Pros
It allows for natural-looking highlighting. I don't usually use compact highlighters because I have trouble controlling the amount, and they tend to look artificial and cyborglike. But this liquid formula is easy to use - you just sweep it on with the brush, and it gives a natural, seamless highlight. The pencil format is also convenient to carry around in a makeup bag. The rose beige shade is so natural and subtle, it's really pretty.
Cons
You twist the product and the liquid comes out through the brush, which you then apply. But I found it difficult to control the amount - even when I clicked it carefully, sometimes too much would come out, and I'd end up highlighting half my face...😂
Tip
I mainly used this under my eyes. Concealer can look a bit matte, and it tends to accentuate fine lines in the undereye area. So I'd apply a thin layer of foundation there first, and then use this product - the rose beige shade helps brighten the dark circles a bit.

Pros
The dark circles are nicely covered. It seems to make the skin texture smooth and the color is so beautiful.
Cons
There is nothing disappointing yet. The only downside is that the price is expensive.
Tip
Apply it under the eyes, on the chin, nose bridge, and forehead to get a glowing complexion.

Pros
The pigmentation is really great, and other powder-type or solid products seem to cling to the face, but this one doesn't cling at all. It seems like the best product in the world. There's also not too much shimmer, which is even better. The store employee in Japan showed it to me, and I immediately bought it, and my friend was also using it. Seeing that made me think that good products are used everywhere, no matter which country you go to. This is truly a holy grail item, so I'll buy it again when it's all used up.
Cons
If you use too much, you have to use a lot... It's really sad... It's expensive..

Pros
It's easy to apply around the undereye area or corners of the mouth, and the color matches well. There are no issues like blemishes.
Cons
After some time, the staying power is not great, and it becomes noticeable.

Pros
The color is pretty and I use it on the dark, dull areas of my forehead. It's moisturizing and easier to apply on the skin compared to other liquid highlighters. Since there's no shimmer (it might be very fine or used sparingly), it brightens my face without feeling too heavy. I was given a highlighter instead of the dark circle concealer I originally wanted, but I'm satisfied with it. It doesn't seem to fully cover the dark circles, but it doesn't make the makeup look too thick either, and naturally brightens the under-eye area, so I'm satisfied and wear my makeup like this.
Cons
1. Price - It's expensive and the quantity is too small. 2. The packaging... It's an all-in-one with a brush, but mine seems defective? Or is it intentional? The hole where the product comes out is visible, and the product is bulging out to the side. I just apply it to the eye area and then use a brush to spread it. I've gotten used to it, though.
Tip
It's good to apply in a reverse triangle shape from the under-eye to the cheekbone, and from the forehead (above the eyebrows) to the tip of the nose. Also apply to the darker areas around the mouth and on the cheeks. When covering dark circles, use it not just under the eyes, but also on the outer edges of the dark circles (farthest from the eyes) and blend it into the cheek area. Using it that way seems to work well!

Pros
I really liked that I could use one product for two purposes. Before using the foundation, I applied it under my eyes and it covered my dark circles. It also made my aegyo sal (cute eye bags) look more prominent. And then after doing my whole makeup, I used it as a highlighter. Since it doesn't have any shimmer, it gave a natural effect. And being a liquid type, it didn't look cakey. It was also easy to touch up.
Cons
At first, I was unsure how to use it, which was a bit disappointing.

Pros
The color and feel are all great. It's also convenient to carry around, and the texture is fine. It's the best for covering dark circles.
Cons
I took off one star because of the ingredients and price ㅠㅠ Did you know this would happen? Am I the only one feeling a sense of betrayal?
Tip
I use it daily to cover dark circles. The darkest areas under the eyes, as well as the crow's feet, forehead, and chin.

Pros
The color is so vibrant that it makes my face look alive. It's great for using as a highlighter or to cover up dark circles on the face! It doesn't cause any breakouts or caking. Even on dry days, it doesn't seem to cake much! Despite having sensitive skin, it didn't cause any breakouts. The price is also quite affordable.
Cons
At first, I thought it was defective because I had to turn it around a hundred times before it started to come out. The ingredients are a bit disappointing. And since it's made with a brush, it's not the most hygienic.

Pros
I only use it to cover the dark circles under my eyes, but it doesn't just cover the dark circles - it gives the impression of lighting up the entire area around the eyes, about one finger's width down from the eyes. This makes the whole face look brighter! I think the liquid highlighter gives a nice, wide-ranging tone-up effect that you can't get with other products. It's natural-looking because there's no shimmer, and I really like the tone itself. I use shade 23, but I think 21 and 23 would both work well for me. A friend who uses 21 recommended it highly and bought it for me, and I've been using it regularly. When I skip using it for a few days and then apply it again, people around me say my face looks brighter today! I really like it.
Cons
The twist-up packaging makes it a bit tricky to control the amount that comes out. Sometimes too much comes out.
Tip
After using foundation to even out my whole face, I apply a single line of the highlighter about one finger's width down from each eye, and then gently pat it in with my fingers. This gives the impression of brightening the upper cheeks. But if I do this alone, the under-eye area might look too bright in comparison, so I also lightly apply powder all over with a brush (not a puff!) to balance the tone across my whole face. This works perfectly!
