Many magazines hailed it as one of the few affordable foundations with department store quality. Its standout features are its incredibly thin, lightweight, and semi-matte finish. Despite this, it offers remarkable coverage. True to American products, it comes in an extensive range of shades, so you're guaranteed to find your perfect match. Often dubbed as the budget-friendly version of Dior's Forever Foundation, it's truly a high-quality product that could easily pass for a luxury brand foundation.
ConsThere are absolutely no drawbacks. Even the price is great. I've used so many bottles, I've lost count!

For a foundation, it's light enough to wear on its own.
ConsFeels drier on the face than it looks. In winter, you need to apply a good base moisturizer.

I used shade 23 and it matched my skin tone perfectly (832)!!!!
ConsI can't think of any downsides... Maybe it darkens a tiny bit over time?

I have seriously blemish-prone skin and I'm a lazy girl who never touches up my makeup, no matter what happens. Oh, and I've never seen anyone with oilier skin than mine - I have extremely oily skin. But this is truly a holy grail foundation! If you have a similar skin type to mine and believe that coverage and longevity are the most important factors, you absolutely won't regret trying this!
ConsThe biggest downside is this: there's no way to buy it except through international shipping. Apparently, in the US it's considered an incredibly affordable drugstore foundation (around $10). But when you order it internationally, you end up paying about $30!
TipSince it's an American product, there's a wide range of shades, but the labeling system is different from Korean products. I recommend researching carefully before making a purchase! For reference, I have a yellow undertone and typically use shade 23 in Korean brands. This foundation tends to oxidize a bit, so shade 810 worked perfectly for me!

ConsUnfortunately, the staying power and coverage leave something to be desired. By nighttime, there's hardly any makeup left on my face.

The coverage is also quite decent.
ConsIt's even more matte than Revlon Colorstay, so you absolutely need to use a damp sponge for a beautiful application.

Among all the foundations and BB creams I've tried, this one has the least tendency to break down throughout the day! I'll definitely repurchase.
ConsThere's a slight darkening effect, and it's really challenging to choose the right shade without seeing it in person.

ConsThe scent is a bit strong and artificial... But aside from that, I'm completely satisfied!

Despite having sensitive skin, no blemishes occurred. The coverage is excellent. Barely any fading throughout the day.
ConsFinding the right shade can be a bit challenging. Might be slightly difficult to use for extremely dry skin types.
TipWorks wonders when applied with a beauty blender for maximum hydration

It has good adherence, is matte, and doesn't emphasize flaky skin much, and it also doesn't crumble too much and breaks down quite nicely. Among the foundations I've tried so far, this seems to have the best cost-effectiveness!!
ConsThe downside is that I ordered it online based on word-of-mouth since I live in Korea, and choosing the color was really agonizing. So I thought if I got the wrong color, I'd mix it with another foundation, and 305 seemed too bright and like something Caucasians would use, so I ordered 310, and it actually matched me pretty well! If people say my skin is a bit pale, 310 seems to be the right one for me. I'm 21 shades. But it is a bit darker than my actual skin tone.. When I apply it fully, it doesn't show that much, but it is noticeably darker than my neck area. I need to find a foundation that's one tone lighter than my skin and mix it in.
TipThe adherence is good, but it's better to pat it on. I use the Skinfood wedge puff and it applies well. Aside from the color selection, I think this is a great product!
