The skin finish is absolutely gorgeous too! While I don't have many blemishes, I do have a few small spots that bother me, so I tend to use foundation. Other foundations often apply thickly and get oily quickly, but this product is so light that I can barely tell if I'm wearing it or not! Also, I have naturally fair skin, so finding the right shade has always been a challenge - yellowy tones or shade 21 make me look darker. But Siberia matches my skin tone perfectly!!! This is my holy grail foundation! The only reason I don't recommend it universally is because it can vary greatly depending on skin type.
ConsWhen I first used it, I regretted my purchase so much that I considered throwing it away. But it was too expensive to waste, so I decided to change my skincare routine instead. The foundation is so lightweight that it seems to dry and stick to the skin immediately after application. This means if you have any dead skin cells, it shows up right away. I absolutely wouldn't recommend this for dry skin types. Even people around me who tried it asked why I was using it. I'd say this product really depends on the individual...
TipI tried using toner packs and morning masks before application, but they were all useless. Applying oil at night before bed works much better. Switching to a deeply hydrating emulsion or cream instead of a light soothing formula made a huge difference - it adheres perfectly! Also, regular exfoliation and texture refinement make a big improvement!

While the staying power was just okay, it didn't cause as much darkening as expected.
ConsAlthough it's bright, it leans yellow. The longevity and absorption weren't great, and surprisingly, it tended to emphasize dead skin cells and clog pores. I unknowingly made a big purchase at the department store, buying this along with the lightest shade of NARS concealer.

Definitely, expensive foundations seem to feel less heavy. I have combination dehydrated skin with oily tendencies, and the staying power was pretty decent. Maybe because it's winter and I don't get as oily as in summer, but I remember it holding up well for about 8 hours, except for some touch-ups I did around the nose area.
ConsI have a fair complexion with cool undertones and a slight redness, but I was shocked when my face turned yellow upon application. While it's good at covering redness completely, the yellow base is too strong. When I applied it, my face literally looked yellow. It doesn't match my skin tone, so I can't use it. I'm planning to mix it with a foundation that has a stronger pink base. Also, if you have a lot of dead skin cells, this foundation is terrible. It finds and highlights even the tiniest flakes, so you need to exfoliate thoroughly and apply quickly. It adheres instantly like ink, making it hard to blend. If you don't blend fast, it leaves visible marks.
TipThorough exfoliation is a must, and those with cool undertones should definitely test it first.

A small amount from one pump is enough to cover the entire face, so it lasts a long time considering the price and quantity! It adheres lightly to the skin, and despite the light coverage, it still provides decent coverage for blemishes (though I'm not particularly prone to them). You need to shake it before use, and when you pump it out, it looks super hydrating. Interestingly, while it applies moistly, the finish is surprisingly matte. Those with dry skin might find the finish a bit too matte. The staying power is quite good!
ConsIf you apply it over a light skincare base, it can become extremely matte. I'd recommend creating a thorough, solid skincare base before using this. When you dispense the product on the back of your hand, which is common practice, it's best to use it quickly. If you leave it there, you'll notice it seems to lose all moisture, feeling very matte. So, it's better to apply it quickly after dispensing. I'd suggest using a tool rather than your fingers for application - it applies better that way. When using fingers, you might feel some friction due to the matte finish. I usually dab it on with my fingers and then blend it out with a sponge.
TipI prefer a dewy makeup look, but I've found that if I start with a very hydrating base, the longevity suffers. So, my strategy is to create a semi-matte base first, then add glow using highlighters or face mists. This approach seems to help the foundation last longer without breaking down.

When applied with fingers, it spreads thinly and evenly, so I've used it for quite a while. It's perfect for a light, sheer application in summer.
ConsIt's quite matte, which makes it seem like a foundation that's not suitable for winter use.

It's great at covering up blemishes and redness from acne. One pump is enough to cover the entire face. It doesn't break down even in the afternoon. Some say it's drying, but if you apply a hydrating base, it's not an issue at all.
ConsIf there's one drawback, it might be that it's a bit drying? But as I mentioned, if you prep your skin well, it's not really a problem...
TipYou could probably use this through winter if you mix it with a hydrating foundation or BB cream. Since I got the lightest shade, I can mix it with other foundation shades to adjust the tone based on my skin condition.

Just a small application brightens up your complexion. On days when your skin is in good condition, it applies beautifully.
ConsThe coverage is weak and it doesn't feel like it adheres well to the skin. It gets shiny and the oil is completely uncontrolled. On particularly bad days, when I use finishing powder, it tends to clump up in a very unpleasant way.
