As someone with dry skin, moisture is crucial for me, and I don't think I've ever felt parched while using this product.
ConsThe staying power is absolutely terrible. It's so hydrating that when I take off my mask, everything transfers onto it, leaving nothing on my face. The adherence is poor. It's definitely not worth the price...

I love this type of foundation, so I'm really satisfied. What's most impressive is how it keeps my skin moisturized without any dryness. I used it during winter when my skin was extremely dry and other products weren't working, and it was amazing! I could use it without any dryness issues at all!
ConsThe coverage is a tad on the lighter side. But that's no big deal since you can always use concealer to touch up!

Dry in the winter but oily!! -When I apply a matte foundation, my face looks really dirty... ㅜㅜ It gets cakey and flaky when I touch up my makeup. -To cut to the chase, I highly recommend this!! ㅜㅜ I have an oily T-zone in the summer and dry but oily skin in the winter. Recently, as the seasons changed, my skin became very dry, so I was looking for a hydrating foundation and tried the Bobbi Brown Skin Long-Wear Weightless Foundation. -I've been using Shu Uemura foundation since I was around 20, so it was hard for me to switch, but this is a holy grail product for me ㅜㅜㅜ I'm not sure how it'll perform in the summer, but for my combination+dry skin in the winter, it's perfect!! 1. Hydration First of all, it's hydrating and when you apply it, it gives a healthy glow, not an oily one. I've read a lot of reviews on Hwahae and blogs saying the same thing. You really have to try it to understand! 2. Coverage There were a lot of comments saying the coverage is weak, but since I don't have a lot of blemishes, the coverage seems fine to me?? And I think using a concealer for the rest is enough. There's a perception that hydrating foundations have poor coverage, but this one is medium to high coverage. 3. Longevity + Wear I always buy a cushion compact to touch up when I use a foundation. Since I can't carry the foundation around for afternoon touch-ups, I was worried that it might wear off quickly due to the hydration. But it wears beautifully ㅜㅜ The longevity is just average, I'd say. It's not bad at all. Anyway, I don't really care about longevity when buying a foundation because I always need to touch up due to my oiliness ㅋㅋㅋ
ConsIt seems like there are no downsides to this foundation ㅠㅠ I really recommend this to those with combination+dry skin! The only potential drawback is that it's a bit pricey??
TipThe tool you use seems to make a difference in the longevity of this serum foundation. Here's what I've tested so far! 1. Foundation Brush (Real Techniques Brush) When I first tested it at the store, the sales associate applied it with a brush. So I tried it with my Real Techniques brush at home. It applies smoothly and gives a nice glow, but the longevity was a bit lower. And when I buffed it out with the brush, the coverage also decreased. 2. Sponge (Real Techniques Orange Sponge!) This sponge is an absolute perfect match for this serum foundation!!! I'm sure everyone knows the Real Techniques orange sponge, right?? Dampen it, squeeze out the excess water, and apply the serum foundation - it's an absolute game-changer. It not only perfects the skin finish, but also resolves the issues I had with the brush application. I highly recommend trying this sponge!

Incredibly Moisturizing Whenever the seasons change, my skin gets so dry and flaky, so I was looking for a dewy foundation and found the Bobbi Brown foundation..!! The moisturizing factor is just absolutely amazing!!! 2. Shade This is a perfect match for me, who usually wears shade 23. As soon as I apply it, a sophisticated color appears... It's mesmerizing... 3. Radiance I prefer a very dewy skin texture since I have dry skin, but when I wear this, I forget that I even have dry skin because the radiance is just so... mesmerizing..!
Cons1. Coverage You can say it barely covers anything, but I usually prefer a more natural skin-like finish... 2. Price Gouging It's in the 80,000 won range... As a student, it's a bit burdensome for me, but... I just can't give up on you, my dear foundation.... Hahahahahaha
TipIf you're willing to give up on the coverage, you can apply concealer on top of this foundation to achieve a really natural, skin-like appearance.

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.ProsI would recommend this to those of you with dry skin like me! It's also great if you want a glowy complexion! If you don't like a matte finish, this is a good foundation for you! Also, if you don't have many skin imperfections, you'll be satisfied using this product.
ConsHowever, the breakdown is just too unattractive... Nowadays, I mix it with a matte foundation, which works fine, but back when I used this alone and went to school, I was shocked when I looked in the mirror and immediately bought a mask to cover my face... For those with oily T-zones, using this product alone is not recommended... it's absolutely a no-go... Also, the price is a bit on the pricier side, which is a bit disappointing...
TipI mix the The Face Shop Ink Lasting Foundation with another foundation at a 3:1 ratio! Using it this way seems perfect! And don't forget to finish with a setting spray!

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.ProsThis is a review of my experience using the product from last winter until now. I usually have very dry skin, so I really agonized and researched a lot when buying foundation. As the name 'serum foundation' suggests, it is definitely moisturizing! And the Bobbi Brown foundation shade matched me well. My skin tone is a bit on the darker side, but if I match my makeup too closely, it can look dull, so I like to apply it a bit brighter. This shade is not too dark for me, but also not too bright, and it gives me a natural tone-up effect, which I really like^_^ The coverage is not bad either. If I apply the foundation lightly and then use concealer only on the areas that need more coverage and apply another light layer, it can cover most things. Of course, since it's moisturizing, the foundation alone may not be enough to fully cover everything ㅠㅜ
ConsFirst of all, the ingredients are too bad, which is unfortunate ㅠㅠ But since there wasn't a big problem, I'm not too worried. Still, there's something that feels a bit uncomfortable using it. And the price... it's expensive.. And since it's so moisturizing, it tends to transfer a lot ㅠㅠ But usually when I'm wearing makeup, I don't touch my face much, so it's okay.
TipBefore buying foundation, I always test it at the store! I think it works best when applied with a flat brush, so I always used a flat brush to apply it and then patted it in with a sponge ㅎㅎ

ConsThe color has a slightly yellow tone, so I'm mixing it with a lighter product.

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 skin expression becomes natural and beautiful The coverage increases the more you apply the foundation 2-3 times! There was no trouble reaction on my sensitive skin! It felt light and didn't burden my skin when applied! It wasn't too dry or too oily for my combination skin!
ConsThe coverage is not good enough with just one application ㅜ The adhesion is a bit disappointing ㅜ / It seems to be an individual difference, as my cousin sister said the adhesion was good when I recommended it to her.. It was difficult to use at first because it's a dropper type... ;; (When purchased in the store... they gave me a pumping device!) It leaks a lot ㅜ After going home, I found it had leaked a little... Since it's a dropper type, I had to be careful when using it.
TipApplying powder will increase the durability and adhesion :) Using a brush will make the skin expression thin and beautiful (be sure to use a puff to remove the brush marks / you can also tap it with your hands) Don't apply skincare too thickly... I once applied a lot and the foundation all came off..

I ended up coming back to this after using other foundations... I'm originally dry-skinned, but in the winter when I'm exposed to a lot of wind and indoor heater air, it gets even drier, so I needed a more moisturizing foundation. I repurchased the Bobbi Brown Serum Foundation! It's good for dry-skinned people!
ConsThe coverage is a bit weak, but the positive is that it doesn't cake up even when layered multiple times.

ConsAs it is a dewy type, the darkening becomes more severe in the summer or when my face gets heated up... It's perfect for the winter or cool weather days, but that's the disappointing part.. And the coverage is not as much as I expected.. Even when applied thickly, it doesn't work well.. So I just use it as a light base and cover the blemishes with a concealer.
