I loved that it didn't cause any darkening on my skin. It's great that it doesn't trigger deep dryness.
ConsLike all foundations, it can pill if you apply too much skincare underneath or if you don't let your sunscreen absorb properly.
TipIt seems to work better with a damp sponge rather than a brush. My skin tends to get warm easily, but this method prevents the foundation from looking cakey.

As you can see in the photo, it gives a beautiful natural glow! Secondly, it looks so natural, which I love since I prefer a lighter makeup look. Lastly, and this is just my personal opinion, but I really like the scent. It does smell like cosmetics, but it's not overpowering - more of a pleasant, subtle fragrance.
ConsWhile I mentioned earlier that I like how natural it looks, this can also be a drawback. On days when I have blemishes, it doesn't provide enough coverage on its own, so I need to use it with a concealer. So this aspect could be seen as both a pro and a con!
TipSince the product itself is quite moisturizing, I found that using a sponge that's not too damp works best for application on my face. A sponge with just the right amount of moisture removed seems to help the product absorb well!

Not only do I get compliments on my skin when I wear it, but I can also see a natural Inner Glow that leaves me incredibly satisfied. It's truly a game-changer for my complexion.
ConsThere were hardly any downsides, but the longevity was slightly lacking. However, even when it faded, it did so gracefully rather than patchily, which I found quite impressive!
TipAs I have dry skin, I applied it with a damp sponge, and it gave my skin an even more radiant glow! I'm not sure about its staying power, but I'd say it lasts at least halfway through the day.

The product quality speaks for itself. If you want more coverage, apply two thin layers with a dry air puff - it gives a dewy glow while providing decent coverage! For those who prefer a natural look, use a damp sponge for one layer, and you'll achieve flawless skin!
ConsThe price feels a bit higher compared to other drugstore brands. However, the product quality is absolutely top-notch! Espoir foundation is a trustworthy purchase!
TipDon't forget to shake well before use! Apply a thin layer with your fingers, then pat it in with a puff for amazing adherence to the skin.

ConsHowever, it doesn't last very long and it's not an extremely high-coverage product, so don't expect too much
TipI only use it in the winter Like Isabae, I apply it with a brush and really pat it in with a sponge to help it adhere better I also powder the outer areas of my face, but I still need to touch up occasionally However, the longevity is improved quite a bit

That's why I used it well when I wanted to express a moisturized skin look. It doesn't pull on the face and has a subtle glow.
ConsThe foundation is prone to getting oily, causing it to slide off dramatically. And the coverage is not great, so the skin's unevenness ends up accentuated by the oiliness.

First of all, this foundation is very moisturizing. When you apply it, your face will have a beautiful glow ~~ So it makes your skin look even better 💕 However, it seems more suitable for winter than summer due to its moisturizing properties. As for longevity, it's above average - I remember it lasting at least 6 hours. And I have a skin type that easily breaks out when I change skincare products, but I didn't experience any breakouts while using this foundation. In fact, people said my skin looked better after using it haha. Lastly, I really liked the shade of this foundation - it brightens up my face..??? I would repurchase this!
ConsThe adhesion could have been better ㅜㅜ It tends to rub off easily and my stray hairs would stick to it ㅜ And as a student, the price point was a bit high for me!
TipI think this would suit dry-skinned people or those with combination skin prone to dryness!! It's quite moisturizing.

While it does crumble a bit, it has a luminous finish that gives a glowing, blurred effect.
ConsThis foundation might be a bit too heavy for summer use. It can make the skin look and feel a bit congested, so I highly recommend using it in the winter.

ConsWhen I used domestic brand foundations (including department store brands), there were no issues, but when I used foundations purchased abroad, I would break out in hives or pimples after washing my face. This foundation caused the exact same reaction - pimples and hives quickly appeared. I really don't recommend this for those with sensitive skin, even if you have dry skin. It's much better to buy a different foundation at this price point.

The formula has a nice, creamy texture that spreads easily. It has a subtle glow that looks beautiful.
ConsSince it's a hydrating foundation, there is some darkening, though it's not severe. It's noticeable to some degree.
