The downside is that the coverage is a bit lacking ㅠㅠㅠㅠ

It really shines just like its name and the skin expression is so beautifully done, I was amazed..!!

아쿠아 글로우 세럼 파운데이션 [페어라이트]

There seems to be a bit of darkening, but it's still fine since it's moisturizing.

The color was also to my liking, and it was truly moisturizing. I've never seen anything like it before... It had a slight pink-based tone, which made it even better.

The dropper bottle makes it a bit inconvenient to control the amount at first.

I bought the foundation because it was advertised as a brand that doesn't conduct animal testing, and I was happy with how thinly it applied and how nicely it expressed my skin.

 Using a dense foundation brush and quickly stippling and blending the product, then lightly tapping the edges with a damp sponge or fingertips, helps achieve a natural, non-cakey finish.
Since everyone's skin tone isn't uniform, I like to use a brighter concealer in the central areas of my face. (The light shade matches my neck so well that applying it all over can make me look too one-dimensional.)

 I heard this product has been discontinued, so I stocked up on two bottles when they went on sale at Hoot Look for around 50,000 won.
As a foundation nomad, I'll probably use up those two bottles and then try out a different foundation.
The dropper type packaging makes it a bit tricky to control the amount, and when I apply it with my fingers, the areas I don't blend well tend to oxidize.
It also clings to dry patches and emphasizes flakiness a bit, though less so compared to other foundations I've tried.

 [The product I'm using is not a fair light, but a light one] I usually go between MAC NC20 and NC25.
The attached photo is of the product after I applied it and finished with Mehron HD Powder. There is no clogging of the pores and the acne scars are barely visible.

I usually prefer a slightly brighter tone than my natural complexion, so I used to use the yellow-based shade 23. But when I use the pink-based shades, I find them too pink-toned, so I don't really prefer most Korean cosmetic products with a lot of pink undertones anymore.
This product also has a slight pink tone, and I was disappointed when I swatched it on my hand. But when I applied it to my face with my fingers, the color matched my neck perfectly without any difference.
The creamy, fluid-like texture spreads smoothly on the skin.
Plus, the packaging is really pretty. It's a dropper type that looks quite luxurious, and the golden bottle adds to the premium feel.
Even on days when I haven't properly prepped my skin, this foundation makes my complexion look relatively smooth without a primer.

If you have dry skin, I recommend it.
After your basic skincare routine and sunscreen, use this, and then your hair will dry.
After that, when you do your makeup, the makeup will absorb well, and it will be perfect for color makeup.

You have to wait a while after applying this foundation before you can do eyeliner or eyeshadow and other color makeup. In other words, it stays moisturized for a while, so you can't do color makeup right away. This is why I deducted 1 point.

It was moisturizing, covered well with a small amount, and most importantly, it suited my dry skin perfectly. If you have dry skin, I recommend it!

When mixed with a concealer, it's really amazing and it's perfect for a natural makeup look when applied on its own. And since it has a semi-matte finish, it does tend to transfer a bit..Powder application is a must as it does break down easily, so you'll need to carry the cushion with you.

Hmm...the coverage is lacking and it doesn't cover pores well..

It doesn't cling at all and it's really great. It has super buildable coverage and doesn't lift off at all..Highly recommended and the semi-matte finish is just gorgeous..Definitely not for summer cushion, it's perfect for fall.

I tried applying it with my hands, wetting them first and pressing it in with the puff-like applicator from the Daiso
Applying it with my hands works better
Using the puff dulls the glow, which is a shame
Use a glow-enhancing tool
And since the glow is a key feature, be sure to really make it shine ☺

I applied the Fairlight, but it's too dark
I normally use shades 13-19, but there's an earthy tone
Although I'm a huge cosmetics enthusiast,
I've recently become aware of the boycott movement against certain companies
(I've become more conscious of corporate ethics)
And I've come to think that Stila is one of the better companies,
So I had high expectations for this foundation
The ingredients, the philosophy, the formula - everything seems great
And even considering it's a department store brand, the price is quite reasonable

My face has a rather strong earthy tone,
So it has a Korean-American makeup look...
The fairest shade seems to be the one I need to go find at the department store

It's not at all drying
The skin feels comfortable
The application is really smooth
Just glide it on

I apply this foundation on drier areas, and then use the Estée Lauder one on the areas I want to look more matte. That works perfectly for me! Bb, if you have issues with your makeup lifting in certain spots, give this a try! The Estée Lauder one seems to apply really nicely all over, in my experience. ♡

Since I have combination skin, when I use this alone, it can make my nose area look oily. ㅠㅠ

This foundation won't look cakey on areas where your makeup tends to lift. It applies very lightly yet has great coverage. ♡

There are not many stores, so testing is a bit difficult..?
The pump packaging makes it a little hard to use.

The ingredients arrived in a moisturizing and unexceptional manner!
While there is a slippery feeling, it seems better than the Barbie serum.

The dropper is inconvenient... It's a bit of a hassle to open with slippery hands after skincare... I keep forgetting to shake it...

This is the most moisturizing foundation I've tried. The name is quite fitting, as it gives a serum-like or oil-like feel when applied. Despite being so moisturizing, the longevity is quite good, with minimal darkening by the evening. There's no in-between shade for 21 and 23, so the color range is quite extreme, but it blends well with the skin tone if applied properly. Overall, it's a great product that has well-balanced the conflicting properties of longevity and moisturization. And the Stila packaging is so pretty, isn't it?

When used together with the puff, it adheres well and expresses the glow nicely. It seems to work quite well.

The color seems to have more of a pink base than I expected. Even though it's described as having a pink base, it has a slightly yellow undertone and doesn't have that super bright, radiant feel.

It's really moisturizing
I'm not sure if it was the lighting when I tested it in the store, but there was a glossy sheen on the back of my hand. It applies smoothly and has a creamy, fluid texture - the application is top-notch.
