Pros
The product was beautiful even when it broke down There was no accentuation of flaky skin It's moisturizing, making it great for use in the winter It looks natural You can apply it in multiple layers
Cons
Dust and other impurities tend to stick to it (this is probably unavoidable since it's a cream) The darkening happened faster compared to other products I felt the coverage was lacking
Tip
Mixing it with a makeup oil will make it even more moisturizing If you want to apply it thinly, I recommend using a brush

Pros
The original foundation applies well, but this product is a bit less so. Overall, it applies smoothly and moisturizes well.
Cons
Over time, it becomes oily and has a slight darkening effect.

Pros
My skin was dry, so I was glad that it felt very moisturizing. It also matched my skin tone well, making my complexion look bright and radiant.
Cons
The darkening effect was quite severe, and the product didn't seem to have very good longevity. The coverage also didn't seem particularly high.

Pros
Hmm... there was nothing good about this product at all.. Ah, the case was somewhat decent, at least.
Cons
The spreadability, longevity, and coverage were all really bad.. I used the sponge that came with it, but every time I used it, it would lift up and the spreadability was poor, and it would cake and clump.. ㅜ For the first few times I used it, I thought I was applying it wrong, so I tried different methods like using my fingers, a foundation brush, etc. and used it for about 3 weeks, but... this is just... I really can't use it ㅠ My face feels itchy and like there's something on it, it feels stuffy. I even started getting pimples ㅠㅠ...... I even had to wash my face and redo my makeup because I was about to be late for an appointment. As soon as an hour or two passes after applying, it starts to break down and look messy. The darkening is severe and the pink tone doesn't suit East Asian skin tones, so it looks unnatural when applied.. It settles into the fine lines under my eyes and accentuates the pores on my chin;; When I pat my cheeks, it transfers. Dust and fuzz get in it easily and it's hard to keep it looking clean. Phew.. This product is really just a failure, I think. I hastily picked it up at the duty-free store, and it seemed okay when I swatched it on the back of my hand, but I really regret buying it. So my conclusion is that I really don't recommend this product.
Tip
I'll try to use it to cover up some bruised areas on my legs... ㅜ Since I can't just throw it away, I'll try to use it up somehow.. ㅋㅋㅋ

Pros
Applying it with a brush makes it feel moist and thin, so it's not stuffy~It's good for touch-up makeup.
Cons
There is a bit of darkening, so you'll need to do some touch-up makeup.
Tip
If you peel off the paper between the puffs, it will dry out and harden.

Pros
It has a creamy texture without being heavy, and it's moisturizing. The application is smooth, and it doesn't clump up when applied with your fingers. It immediately smooths out the skin after application, leaving a refined finish. The color payoff is great, making the complexion look radiant without appearing cakey. It blends seamlessly into a natural, luminous finish.
Cons
As it's a cream-type product, there is some darkening. The immediate smoothing effect doesn't last very long, maybe an hour? The inner packaging is paper-like, but the case has good fingerprint recognition. The puff applicator becomes less useful over time, so it's better to apply it with your fingers.
Tip
For the Dior Addict Fluid Stick 575, I like to dab a small amount on the back of my hand and blend it out to use as a blush. It looks natural and beautiful.
