Sometimes foundation can look matte and cakey, but mixing this product in enhances the adherence to the skin. Even with my super sensitive skin, it doesn't cause any blemishes, so I find myself using it consistently. It contains what looks like golden particles, which are visible when applied to the skin. As you blend it in, these particles become finer, creating a subtle, natural glow.
ConsIf you use too much, it can reduce the coverage of your foundation, so it's important to use just the right amount.
TipRather than applying it alone, I find that mixing it with foundation improves skin adherence and prevents the makeup from looking patchy or sitting on top of the skin.

The rich, fluid texture also helps to smooth out my skin texture.
ConsWhile the separate lid on the container is good for hygiene, I find it difficult to open and close. Also, the gold shimmer doesn't blend as well as I'd hoped, sometimes showing up unexpectedly over my foundation, which can be a bit awkward.

I bought it after a YouTube star recommended it, and I'm satisfied. When I apply foundation over it, it feels like it's clinging perfectly to my skin. I really like it.
ConsThe perfume scent is quite strong, which might be polarizing. The gold particles are a bit too large, and sometimes when rubbing it in, the particles can remain on the skin.

For those of us with oily skin, using just a small amount won't cause any blemishes. While it doesn't give an intense glow, it's perfect for creating a thin, hydrated look!
ConsWell, it's not exactly the best for achieving that dewy, glass skin effect. It's more useful for adding moisture and helping your makeup base stick better to your skin.

It seems to improve the adherence of other products. The gold shimmer melts beautifully into the skin.
ConsWell, the container was a bit heavy to carry around, probably because it's made of glass, haha!

As someone with combination dehydrated skin, my makeup used to break down and get oily quickly. But with this, even in the afternoon, there wasn't much oil breakthrough and my makeup stayed put beautifully!
ConsOn the evening of the second day of use, my skin became bumpy. After removing my makeup and washing my face, it turned red and irritated. I think this product was the culprit. Usually, while my pores are a bit large, my skin is smooth and nice. I bought this during The Face Shop sale along with the Ink Lasting Foundation, but it seems they don't agree with my skin.
TipApply a generous amount and immediately follow with foundation before it dries - not BB cream, but foundation. Blend it quickly for an incredibly long-lasting makeup look! I'm not sure how to properly test this, but in any case, it didn't work for me.

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 have combination dehydrated skin where my T-zone gets oily over time, while my butterfly zone, U-zone, and C-zone become extremely dry after applying foundation. Recently, I've been frustrated, thinking I might have to give up on sunscreen because my foundation would pill no matter which sunscreen I used. However, after applying this gold base, my foundation adheres well even over sunscreen, making my makeup routine enjoyable again. The changes I've noticed after using this base are: 1. Improved foundation adhesion. 2. No more foundation buildup or clumping around the nose. 3. Foundation breakdown looks less unsightly. (Previously, it would settle into pores, making texture more visible) 4. Less tightness even in dry spring winds. (Before, it was painfully tight, with visible fine lines around the cheekbones when smiling, like a pie crust) And more... Although it adds an extra step to my routine, I'm happy to embrace it since it reduces the need for touch-ups. I hope many people use it so it doesn't get discontinued!
Cons1. Be generous when applying the base. At first, I didn't know better and used just one pump before sunscreen and foundation, which made my foundation pill even more. I thought I'd wasted my money. But when I used 2-3 pumps for ample coverage before sunscreen and foundation, I finally understood what 'smooth as an egg' means. 2. The gold flakes... I'm not sure if they're added for a luxurious look or serve a purpose, but as a lazy beauty enthusiast, I sometimes end up walking around with gold flakes on my cheekbones because I can't be bothered to blend them in. 3. I'm unsure how well it would pair with a dewy foundation. I prefer a matte finish, so when I use this base, I lightly dust powder along the edges of my face where hair touches. The base gives such a dewy feel that you might need to test whether it creates synergy with a dewy foundation or if it becomes too much of a good thing.
TipIf you apply just a light layer of hydrating emulsion during your skincare routine before using this base, you won't experience any deep dryness from your foundation, and it will break down beautifully without darkening.

It creates a perfect base for BB cream or foundation without any pilling, and it adheres beautifully to the skin. The scent is lovely, which makes it a joy to use. While it's a bit pricey at full cost, I'd suggest grabbing it during a sale when it's half off. When used with The Face Shop BB cream, it gives your face such a beautiful glow. Highly recommend!
ConsThe price can be a bit steep, but if you catch it on sale, you can snag it without breaking the bank.

It's truly my holy grail product. I usually have dry skin, which makes my makeup prone to flaking, but this primer has amazing adherence and is the best among hydrating bases!!! I'm on my second tube now, and the price is wallet-friendly too. So happy with this purchase!
ConsAs it's a hydrating base, it's not great if you're looking for something to even out your skin tone. The packaging is also a bit heavy to carry around.
TipIt's fantastic to stock up when it goes on 50% off sales, which happen quite often!
