Pros
I've been using this primer for 5 years after accidentally discovering it in Japan. My skin has been prone to frequent breakouts, with severe T-zone and pores, so I couldn't do without this primer. It completely covers my oily skin and enlarged pores, making a significant difference in how my skin looks when I use it as a base. If you know of any places offering discounts, please let me know. I'd love to stock up!
Cons
It's so good, but there's one fatal flaw... Please, could you change the packaging to a tube type? It's so inconvenient to carry around. I only do my makeup about twice a week, so I'm not sure if that's the reason, but every time I use it, I have to discard the hardened product at the opening. It's such a waste and a hassle. If you just change the packaging, I'd be loyal to this product forever, for real.

Pros
Even though I have relatively large pores, the primer doesn't completely cover them. However, it does reduce the appearance of my pores more than not using it at all. I also like that the product applies smoothly and lightly. It doesn't make my skin look oily, and the longevity is good as it doesn't break down easily.
Cons
The primer I bought to cover my pores feels a bit lacking in that regard. While the reviews were good, it doesn't seem to perform as well as I had hoped. Additionally, the opening of the product tends to dry out and harden quite a bit. When I go to use it again the next morning, the dried-up primer comes out, which is quite frustrating. The product also tends to wear off easily, and if I don't apply my base products meticulously, it can leave a white, cakey appearance.
Tip
When using a primer, it's important to apply it in a very thin layer only to the areas that need it. Applying it too thickly can lead to the product moving around and becoming patchy. Gently patting the foundation on top of the primed areas can help minimize the appearance of pores even further.

Pros
- Has a smooth, lotion-like texture that is easy to apply - The transparent bottle makes it easy to check the remaining amount - Applies evenly and leaves a silky finish after use, with decent control over the amount applied - Effectively covers small pores
Cons
- The opening easily gets dirty and develops hardened residue, requiring frequent cleaning - Becomes oily and ineffective by the afternoon or evening - The lid is too loose, sometimes coming off when carried around - Does not cover large pores and emphasizes oil and flaky skin
Tip
It is recommended to apply a small amount, let it dry a bit, and then add the base makeup on top

Pros
It filled in my pores well and the BB cream on top didn't slide off.
Cons
The cosmetics at the entrance are always hardened.. So when I squeeze them out, about half of it gets wasted.

Pros
The texture is like a lotion, but when applied, the skin surface becomes smooth and soft. It is not irritating, which is good.
Cons
When reused, the end is always dry. Wrinkles are still wrinkles, and the wrinkles around the eyes and the 8-shaped wrinkles are unavoidable. There is a slipping phenomenon, so it needs to be applied thinly.

Pros
It was so nice to apply it to areas with a lot of creases like the corners of the eyes, sides of the nose, or crow's feet! It's a pump type, so it was great to adjust the amount. In the summer when my makeup tends to break down, using a primer and then applying foundation or BB cream on top makes it last much longer!☺
Cons
Once you pump it out, the primer in the middle seems to harden a bit. But if you clean the opening well before using, it should be fine! And if they could lower the price a little bit, that would be great ㅜㅜ It was okay when I bought it on sale, but the regular price seems a bit high, so I'm a bit hesitant to repurchase.
Tip
It's best to pump out a small amount, pat it on at first, and then gently rub it in~

Pros
I didn't manage my skin and my pores got bigger... My nose and the inner cheeks have gaping pores ㅠㅠ I used to use the Laneige primer before, and it was fine in the past, but as my pores got bigger, it didn't work as well anymore ㅠㅠ I happened to browse the Revlon corner at Olive Young and tested it on the back of my hand, and with some skepticism, I bought it and applied it to my cheeks and nose. The pores didn't disappear completely, but they looked significantly improved. It also controls the oil well during the summer. The amount is generous, so I can use it for a long time. I can use one bottle for over a year.
Cons
If you apply too much, it cakes and emphasizes the flakiness, so you need to exfoliate well and apply it. You also need a good skincare routine. And I really don't like the pump part of the packaging. The hole gets clogged, and when you pump several times, hardened primer and clumps come out, which gets mixed with the product, which is annoying. It's a great product, but it's tricky to use, and the packaging really tests your patience.
Tip
I apply a base, then a moisturizing sunscreen (Missha All Around Safe Block Green), then a little bit of the Chanel Peach Mist, and then just a tiny bit on the areas with a lot of pores on my nose and cheeks. I massage it in with my fingers to fill and cover the pores. Then I apply a dewy foundation (Bobbi Brown Serum Foundation). That covers most of the visible pores. Sometimes I finish with a light dusting of powder with a powder brush, but powder can look cakey if not done right on top of this primer... I still haven't fully mastered this product ㅠㅠ One thing for sure is that it doesn't pair well with matte foundations.

Pros
This is a silky primer. It may be too much for those with dry skin. I first used L'Oreal and then tried this, and it's alright, but L'Oreal seems to suit me better. It's just generally easy to use. There's a big difference between applying and not applying it before foundation, so I always make sure to apply it.
Cons
It has a strong rubber smell. I don't mind it personally, but those who dislike it will likely find it unpleasant. After using it for a while, the cap tends to become a bit loose. Also, when using it the next day, the dried product comes out with the new application, which is a bit disappointing.
Tip
If you apply too much or don't let the base absorb properly, it can become cakey or flaky. Use a light hand.

Pros
The texture is not as thick as a typical primer, but rather a watery, lotion-like consistency. At first, I was unsure if it would actually work as a primer... But to my surprise, it's the best primer I've used so far. It absorbs seamlessly without any heaviness, and it covers my pores well. The lasting power is also great - there's no clogging of pores in the afternoon!
Cons
Even after cleaning the container opening thoroughly, there's always a bit of product that dries up and sticks to it. The pore coverage is not bad, but unfortunately, it doesn't control oil as well as I'd like.
Tip
When applied moderately, it doesn't feel heavy or tacky.

Pros
The texture was more silky than powdery, and my skin definitely looked smoother! It covered my pores quite well, and when I applied it to fill in my larger pores, it gave a seamless look. The scent was only unpleasant at first, but I got used to it and it didn't bother me at all! I also didn't have any breakouts.
Cons
When I used it in the morning, the opening was hardened, so it was a bit inconvenient to have to peel it off every time. The cap also doesn't close tightly. And I bought it to use with the Revlon ColorStay for Combination/Oily skin, but the combination didn't work well...
Tip
For large pores, you can roll an appropriate amount into the pores, and it will sink in nicely to cover them well! Make sure to cleanse thoroughly~
