Pros

There is nothing else that applies as smoothly.

Cons

I purchased this 4 years ago and wrote a review, but it was hidden. So I'm writing again. I still vividly remember that on the day I used this, I broke out in hives all over my face and even had trouble breathing. That incident made me start checking cosmetic ingredients carefully before buying anything.

Pros

I usually don't use it during the seasonal transition in the fall, but I use it at other times. The coverage is good, the application is smooth, and you can just draw on the desired areas as much as you want, then buff it out with a puff or air cushion, and it's really...a great product.

Cons

However, the longevity doesn't seem to last very long...^^ For those with dry skin, there may be a slight cakiness around the nose area.

Tip

I apply it generously to the areas I want to cover on my face, and use an air cushion to blend it in, and more than anything, there's no cakiness and I can do my makeup quickly!

Pros

I had been using the Benefit Stick Foundation for over a decade, but when it was discontinued, I ended up trying the Etude House one. First of all, the Bobbi Brown one was too matte for me, but this one has just the right amount of oil, so it applies moisturized. It's a great value for the price of 12,000 won.

Cons

However, it applies thicker than the Benefit Stick, so you need to swipe it on your cheeks only twice and then blend it out thinly. The coverage is also not as good as Benefit's. While it's a shame Benefit was discontinued, I'd still recommend this over the Bobbi Brown Stick.

Tip

For daily makeup, the most natural look comes from applying it with the warmth of your fingers. When you want a heavier coverage look, like for events, using a sponge to apply it will help it build up better.

Pros

It is very easy to use. Just swipe it on and buff it out with a puff, and you're done!

Cons

The coverage is weak, the lasting power is also weak, and it has a lot of oil content, so it seems like it can only be used in the middle of winter. It lifts up very easily.

Pros

Since my skin is sensitive to ingredients, I've been looking around on Hwahae and found this product. After trying it, my skin doesn't seem to be reacting negatively at all.

Cons

This amazing product turns my already oily skin even more oily... Even though I try to overlook the ingredients, the oil just keeps coming back up after just a few hours.

Pros

As someone with sensitive skin, this is the foundation that fits me the best out of all the ones I've tried! It has good coverage, so when I apply it in the morning, it lasts comfortably until the evening!! This is my 4th repurchase, and the more I use it, the more I like this product~ The ingredients are also gentle, so it's good to use with peace of mind~

Cons

Everything is really good, but the one disappointing thing is that it doesn't have any sun protection. If it had sunscreen functionality as well, it would be perfect~

Tip

It's much better to apply the sunscreen and stick foundation at a 1:1 ratio!!

Pros

The good thing is that it's not bad, and it's somewhat decent for dry skin.

Cons

It's very uncomfortable to apply, it applies thickly, and it's easy to mess up. When it breaks down, it really doesn't look nice... If you don't have a solid skincare routine, it really accentuates flakiness. And after using this, I noticed some red blemish-like breakouts on my face. Honestly, I don't recommend it.

Pros

It's very convenient to carry and apply, and the texture is wonderfully soft and mousse-like.

Cons

Even if you build a solid foundation, it accentuates the flakiness... The color also doesn't seem to be that pretty. When applied to the skin, it shouldn't feel unpleasant, but the color is unevenly distributed, as if floating on the surface... It also seriously falls apart when the makeup starts to wear off. When you sweat, it doesn't just blend in and absorb, but rather separates and breaks down messily, like pouring oil into a river. I wouldn't recommend it...

Pros

I rushed to buy the 101 stick right after it was released, but I was worried that I didn't pay close attention to the shades (No. 1, No. 2, No. 3, etc.) and that the No. 21 tone might not match. But to my surprise, it turned out to be a great match! The coverage was also excellent, and even when it started to wear off, it only showed a slight fading, which was really nice.

Cons

However, the downside is that since it's a stick, you're supposed to apply it by rubbing it on like a pencil, but that makes it too thick and prone to creasing. It's better to dab it on with your middle finger, like applying a lip concealer. I don't recommend this for dry skin types! Before using it, dry-skinned people should do intensive skincare, like using a face pack, otherwise it will crack and flake, which looks unsightly!

Tip

As I mentioned in the previous point, after applying it evenly with your middle finger, you can lightly dab it with a damp puff or a regular puff to achieve a lightweight and well-adhered makeup look.

Pros

First of all, it was really convenient and great when I needed to do it quickly! Also,

Cons

I think I had combination skin. It kept cracking and it's too bright.. Those who use 22 shades would be better off using 4 shades haha

Tip

Sunscreen for oily skin. If you apply it on top, it gets extremely dry.. It flakes off ㅠㅠ
