I usually mixed this with OC-B and applied it lightly when I wanted a natural makeup look in the summer.
ConsAs expected, the longevity... It wipes off easily. That's a bit disappointing.

I really loved this product, but it has become so hard to find now. ㅠ I scoured the internet and managed to find it through direct import, but even that is now sold out. ㅜ.ㅜ
ConsIt's a shame that the product was discontinued due to a redesign. The redesigned product is not as good. ㅠ Luckily, I have some photos taken before the packaging change. I used to use this product all the time. ㅋㅋ Hing
TipPlease let me know if you know where I can find this product.

When I first bought this and went out with it on, people even asked if I had put egg on my face! It applies so beautifully to the skin and even when doing touch-up makeup, it doesn't come off! You can just layer it on top and it looks so lovely. And when it does start to fade, it fades beautifully without looking a mess - I've never been shocked looking in the mirror like I was with some other products I used before. And I love how gentle this is. I'm really sensitive to products and even stuff made for kids would break me out or make my skin go crazy, to the point where I'd have to go to the dermatologist. So I've been on a long journey trying to find really gentle, natural skincare and makeup. That's why I can't even touch my face with my hands - if I do, I'll break out in that area. But with this BB cream, I've finally found my match. Even if I forget to take off my makeup after drinking, it doesn't cause any breakouts the next day! It's just so, so gentle, but still gives great coverage. I highly recommend this to anyone with sensitive skin. It's truly amazing. In summary: - Applies beautifully to the skin - Great for touch-ups - Fades gracefully - Incredibly gentle, but could use a bit more coverage But the coverage can be built up with a concealer, so it's one of my absolute favorite base makeup products!
ConsThe only downside is that the yellow base is a bit too strong, in my opinion. I wish they had a pink-toned version as well. And as for the coverage... But I didn't really buy it for the coverage, since I always use concealer anyway. If you're looking for heavier coverage, I would caution against this. For those who need more coverage, I'd recommend getting a concealer to use alongside it. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Is it... discontinued?? 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
TipThe best way is to first apply it lightly with your fingers, and then use a puff to gently dab and blend away any fingerprint marks! I've tried applying it with my hands, just with the puff, and even with a mist-dampened puff, but the misted puff is not recommended - the puff ends up absorbing too much of the BB cream. And since this already has light coverage, when the puff soaked up so much of it, I couldn't even tell if it was applying properly or not. Applying it with your fingers first and then using a dry puff to dab and blend seems to be the best method for this BB cream. It helps avoid any visible application marks while still maintaining the coverage.

It's moisturizing and applies well, like it's part of my own skin.
ConsThe longevity is not great. It also darkens quite a bit, so I'll need to mix it with something else... When my skin is in poor condition, the uneven texture and blemishes become more pronounced.

ConsWhile I don't have problematic skin (just some blackheads), I developed pimples on my chin and nose that left scars. After using it for a week, I couldn't continue, so I gave it to my sister.

I don't like sticky skin finishes, but this one seemed to set to a powdery matte look.
ConsThe price seems a bit high for the amount, especially for a student's budget. Since I have dry skin, it seemed to cling and emphasize dryness a bit. I didn't feel the longevity was that great.
TipApplying it with a damp sponge worked well for me - it didn't cling or emphasize dryness that way.

It felt moisturizing, so it seems good for oily skin.
ConsHowever, I needed more coverage, and the coverage was lacking.
TipReducing the BB cream application by one layer and mixing it with a concealer that matches your skin tone can increase the coverage without looking cakey.

Tested directly on the back of the hand. The feel was good during the test. Compared to other BB creams, it had a smoother application, no darkening, and a suitable sun protection factor, so I was satisfied.
ConsHowever, when I applied it directly to my face, it felt sticky. Since I had been using a very soft cushion foundation, my face felt sticky when I applied this. I tried it twice and then gave it to an acquaintance. They said it seems more suitable for oily skin types.
TipEven when using the blue puff from Olive Young and wetting it, it still felt sticky.

It seems to apply thinly and lightly, which I like. It has a moisturizing feel to it. It's easy to apply to the face and blend out with a sponge, so it's good for quick, lightweight application. The coverage is decent - it doesn't completely hide very pronounced pores, but you can see a bit of them up close, and it covers blemishes well, though it doesn't fully smooth out uneven skin texture from acne scars. As for longevity, I used to have an oily complexion, but a few months ago my skin type changed and I now have less oil but more flakiness, so I'm not sure about the staying power for very oily skin. But overall, if I apply it all over and then just add a bit more coverage where needed, set it with powder, and blot excess oil throughout the day, it seems to last quite well.
ConsOf course, since it's a BB cream and a base, some darkening is unavoidable. It's not to the point where I'd say it's completely unusable, but by my standards, the darkening is about average.
TipSponge applicators work better than just using your hands or other tools. It applies nicely with a sponge.
