Even without a separate skincare routine, it provides good coverage when applied directly after.
ConsAfter applying sunscreen, my makeup seems to break down faster over time ㅠㅠ But then again, if I don't apply anything, I keep getting those pesky pimples ㅠㅠ

The amount is generous, which is great. After applying the foundation, it finishes with a matte look, making it suitable for summer use.
ConsIf your skin is dry or you have blemishes, using this product can accentuate those problem areas. Additionally, it can break down unevenly, which may not look flattering on oily skin types, so you'll need to touch it up throughout the day.

The variety of colors...?
ConsI have dry skin, and there's a feeling of the product sitting on top of my skin. There's a lot of creasing and cracking around the sides of my nose and under my eyes. The worst part is that when it breaks down, it really doesn't look good.. It lifts and cracks, if you will. Trying to touch it up just makes it worse and there's no solution.. It's thick and heavy, the kind of foundation that American YouTubers would use. It didn't match my preference for a transparent, skin-like finish!!ㅠㅠ

ConsThe matte finish was good, but in terms of longevity, it seemed to break down faster compared to some other Nars products.

Later, it became a bit matte, which I liked as it gave me the feeling I wanted.
ConsThere is absolutely no coverage. It starts to crumble from the nose. It just becomes a bright bare face.
TipMix and apply.

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsIt has a nice matte finish as the name suggests, and it's lightweight and easy to apply in a thin layer. The coverage isn't completely non-existent, but it's not heavy coverage either, so using it with a concealer would be a good idea.
ConsI have combination skin with dry areas, and the coverage breaks down around my nose area in the afternoon, while the rest stays the same. So I use it with a finishing powder. There are various shades available, but they tend to lean yellow overall, so the shade 23 doesn't quite match me. :( Even using shade 1 Greenland doesn't seem to work.
TipSince the pore coverage is relatively weak, those with large pores might want to use a pore primer before applying this. But if you have a solid skincare routine, the dry areas shouldn't be an issue. And if you dislike pink-toned bases, you can use this natural-looking yellow-based one.

Bali feels good (just the feeling). There was no oiliness when I used it in the summer. It can be applied thinly.
ConsIt's the worst foundation I've ever used. It's too yellow and the coverage is poor. It's just that the quantity is a lot. The Innisfree Ink Foundation, which I used to use a lot, was amazing, but this one is too dry. I'm almost done using it, but my skin is reaching its limit. The adhesion is poor and it wipes off and crumbles very easily.
TipI don't know. I've tried applying it with a moisture puff and all sorts of things, but it's no use. I'm just going to throw it away. If I had to give a tip, it would be to make the base extremely dewy, spray mist, let it absorb, apply the foundation thinly, spray mist again, apply thinly again, and then fix it with a mist or fixer. You have to apply it super thinly.

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsThe fact that it can be easily spread with your hands without any burden is a good point. The adhesion is also not bad, and it finishes slightly fluffy, but it is not completely matte, so there is no lift or accentuation of flakiness. The coverage is moderate. I tested it at the department store and was told that applying it thinly in multiple layers is better, so I apply it in about two thin layers. I don't usually use products with high coverage, but this one has a moderately good coverage.
ConsThe durability and transfer are quite disappointing. I heard good things about Nars foundation and bought this product, but as the name 'skin tint' suggests, the durability is poor. When first applied, it looks bright, fluffy, and moisturized, but that state doesn't last very long. By the time I get to work, it already feels like it's faded. That's why I wonder if the concealer they recommended to me at the test was a good idea, and my sister who bought it with me also says this is the most disappointing aspect. It's light and has decent coverage, but the poor durability and heavy transfer are the most disappointing points.
TipThe durability has improved somewhat since I started using the Maepo Fixer together recently.

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsSince I have normal to dry skin, I don't really like foundation that feels sticky, but I liked the fresh and powdery finish of this one! As the name suggests, it applies thinly, which I find to be a good thing.
ConsIt doesn't crumble or break down beautifully. When it does start to wear off, it tends to cling around the nose area. The store employee told me at the time of purchase that this is an all-in-one product, so I wouldn't need a separate powder, but given my skin type, I felt the need to set it with a powder to help it stay in place. Due to the powdery nature of this foundation, if the base isn't perfectly smooth or if my skin condition is not optimal, it can emphasize some dryness or flakiness, especially if I apply more than one layer!
TipDon't apply it straight from the bottle - instead, dispense some onto the back of your hand and use your finger's body heat to warm it up a bit before applying. A brush works better than a puff to prevent emphasizing any dry patches. In my case, I like to mix this foundation with the Giorgio Armani Lasting Silk foundation, or apply a very thin layer of the Giorgio first, then add a light layer of this on top. This combination lasts much better than using this foundation alone. The slightly dewy yet thin coverage is a great combo - it doesn't break down, even when I've gone out drinking! Just use a bit of powder to mattify the shine, and you're good to go! This foundation can work well if you know how to work with it.

The nice texture creates a radiant, pore-free, and blemish-free complexion that looks just right.
ConsThere are too many strange things. While large pimples don't appear, there are many small granular acne spots. It has a high chance of being applied too thickly. It's difficult to find a good match with other brushes or sponges. It's prone to caking and crumbling. It's best to use it on its own (not compatible with concealer).
TipApply with your hands and finish by patting with a dry sponge!
