Pros
It glided on smoothly, the scent was not too strong, which I liked. It was less drying than other products.
Cons
When I apply foundation on top, it gets cakey and messy. It dries out my skin quickly, and if I use it for several days in a row, my skin gets too dry.
Tip
Build a solid skincare base, and dab it on with your fingertips, pressing gently into the pores for a more stable application.

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
- This is the best at blurring pores. I've also used the Maybelline one, but this is better. After using it, my skin looks like someone else's skin. Even in the middle of Dongdaemun Market, the pores that were visible are barely noticeable when I apply foundation on top of this. - The longevity is insane. Even after several hours, the makeup hardly budges. I'm the type of person whose skin is like petroleum engineering, where blotting papers get used up in no time and makeup flies off after just a couple of hours, but the areas where I use this primer barely need blotting papers and minimal touch-ups.
Cons
- It can easily cause makeup to slip and slide. The claim that it 'blocks pores well' means the formula is extremely thick. If you apply makeup even slightly wrong or touch your face a bit too firmly, it's like an oil-blotting grandma has been by. When I first bought it, I regretted wasting my money on this and had it stashed away for a while. But then I remembered it, tried using it with a different technique, and discovered a whole new world. - I usually apply foundation and do touch-ups with powder, but since this primer is stark white in color, that doesn't work. If it were transparent, I could have layered it on more.
Tip
If you follow these steps, you'll see a revolutionary change in your skin. - Apply a small amount only to the problematic pore areas, and if it seems like too much, gently blot with a tissue (I patted it on to remove the excess). Wait 1-2 minutes before applying foundation. - When applying foundation on top, lightly dab it on instead of rubbing. Rubbing even a little bit can cause the makeup to slip. - It's better to use a lighter foundation formula rather than a super matte one. - When touching up with powder, try to avoid rubbing your face too much (if you do, go as gently as possible). Just lightly dab it on. You don't need to do a lot of touch-ups anyway since this primer has amazing longevity. - As with any primer, be sure to do a thorough cleansing after use.

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
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
If you enjoy the smooth, pore-covering feel, I would recommend it.
Cons
Even after sufficiently absorbing the base, it was washed away like dirt, causing a panic attack. ㅡㅡ;;; I tried my friend's product to attempt a primer, and experienced a dry skin exfoliation session. Thanks to that, I settled on a different type of primer that I had been considering.
Tip
I don't recommend this product for those who don't suit the smooth, slippery type. I have a combination of dry and oily skin, and this type is just not for me.
