Just gently patting it on with a cushion puff gives a beautiful finish.

Unfortunately, it transfers a lot, so I can't wear it with a mask. Due to the pandemic and mask-wearing, I've had to stop using it.

This foundation is my holy grail! It makes my skin look absolutely gorgeous. When I apply it, my complexion looks flawless - no pores visible, great coverage, and even when it starts to wear off, it does so beautifully.

블랑 드 펄 에센스 파운데이션 [SPF25/PA++] [01 Beige Pale]

For combination dehydrated skin, buying this is a pro tip!

The color comes out a bit dark. I bought the lightest shade, but it's still dark... I guess that's just my desire to look brighter?

Hydrating, great coverage, absorbs well, and smells amazing! I've received so many compliments on my skin when wearing this. Even when my skin is in terrible condition, it covers well! If you're thinking 'My skin seems dry, but it gets oily, and I have blemishes... what a nightmare!' - just buy this if you can afford it. Your oiliness will transform into a beautiful glow when it meets this foundation. Of course, it does break down over time, but in such a pretty way that you'll think 'So this is what they mean by graceful wear-off?' However, if you're an oil party celebrity, make sure to set it with powder, for goodness' sake! It mixes well with concealer - foundation plus concealer equals flawless skin! But remember, the higher the concealer ratio, the less gracefully it wears off. Buying this made me realize why people splurge on foundation... It's a personal preference, but I love it. The scent is also lovely, making me feel good every time I apply my makeup.

The only downside might be that even shade #1 is a bit dark for me? I usually prefer using a slightly lighter shade than my natural tone, but this one seems to match my complexion exactly.

As someone with dry skin, this is the only foundation that doesn't make my face feel tight. After being a foundation nomad, I've finally settled on this one for 5 years now. I must have used 5 or 6 bottles, and I truly don't regret it at all. It hasn't caused any blemishes even once, and I love how it covers naturally, just like my own skin.

It's best to use this with a good hydrating base or moisturizer. And as with all Guerlain products, I recommend purchasing from online duty-free shops for the best deals.

While the ingredients might not be ideal, those with resilient skin like mine probably won't mind much. However, you'll definitely notice some dryness as time passes after application. The biggest drawback is the limited shade range. Even though this is the lightest shade, they really need to offer even lighter options.

Among Guerlain foundations, this one offers excellent coverage. Despite its high coverage, it applies smoothly. It's also more hydrating compared to other full-coverage foundations.

If you prep your base thoroughly and apply this foundation, it's incredible. Even in the peak of summer, sweating buckets and being out for 18 hours straight, it doesn't budge an inch!

The only slight drawback might be the shade range... but that's about it!

Why on earth aren't you using this yet?! It's absolutely perfect in every way - coverage, staying power, no creasing, and flawless skin finish. I've got over ten high-end foundations from department stores, but this one takes the crown. My friend with severe redness was always on the hunt for the perfect foundation, so I recommended this. Now she swears it's her holy grail, using it every day. She says it's the only foundation that withstands her alcohol-induced flush and oiliness! This is truly perfection.

The price, oh my goodness! It's on the wickedly expensive side. I can only afford it if I buy it at duty-free shops.

The way it absorbs is fantastic. It naturally brightens my complexion and I absolutely love it.

Seems unavoidable that it makes the T-zone a bit oily. Need to finish with powder to prevent hair from sticking to face. The price is a bit steep.

Absorbs well and keeps skin hydrated (reason I'm on my 3rd bottle). Even though I rarely touch up my makeup, it doesn't break down significantly by evening.

Even though I got the light shade 21, it's way too dark. If I use it alone, I end up looking like I have a tan. I always have to mix it with a lighter foundation.

The texture is so plump and firm. I always get compliments on how good my skin looks when I use this. The glow is fantastic. Aside from the shade, it's flawless.

It's great for mixing with other foundations.

The color is too dark. Even shade 22 feels slightly dark, so I ended up buying a lighter foundation to mix with it. I don't usually use foundation because it's drying, but when mixed, this one is unbeatable. It's so moisturizing that it seems to disappear quickly. At first, the darker color doesn't make it obvious that I'm wearing makeup, but after a few hours, I look bare-faced. The price is extremely high, and I'll have to think hard about repurchasing.

It's moisturizing and applies smoothly. I never thought a foundation could blend so well. Even when applied in winter, it doesn't feel drying. While the coverage is less than medium and not completely ineffective, it's quite minimal, so you'll need to use a separate concealer for areas that require more coverage.

For a flawless finish, apply foundation first and then use a cushion puff to set it.

The only downside is the price... it's a bit expensive. Other than that, I'm a loyal user!

I've been using this for over 3 years now! It provides excellent coverage and lasts for a long time.

Sometimes it can sting a bit when applied after exfoliating and skincare. Those with super sensitive skin might need to be careful with this one!

This foundation has the best coverage I've found after Estée Lauder Double Wear! But it doesn't feel heavy at all, and I've never had my makeup separate since using this. It's a must-buy whenever I'm at duty-free shops!

However, when applied on days my skin isn't at its best, it drastically emphasizes pores on my cheeks and facial wrinkles. While it's the product that's earned me the most compliments about my skin, using it when my skin isn't in good condition makes people suggest I change my foundation. And the reason I couldn't use it much is because, for the first time among all the foundations I've tried, it caused significant itching on my face after application.

This product garnered the most compliments about my skin looking great. It applied seamlessly, with no visible line between my neck and face. It leaves a subtle glow for an elegant finish. The staying power is impressive.
