At first, it's hard to tell how matte it is, but as time passes, it adheres to the skin with a matte finish. I usually dislike sticky formulas and often finish with powder, but with this foundation, there's no need to 'bake' your skin with powder - it gradually becomes matte on its own. Color: Although there are only 4 shades, they have a good color balance without being too yellow or too red. Even after wearing the foundation for a while, there's no darkening, allowing you to maintain a bright complexion throughout the day. Longevity: I have oily skin that produces excess sebum on my nose and face just 30 minutes after application, and my skin underneath is dry. Usually, foundations break down quickly with my skin's oil production, but this one doesn't deteriorate as badly. If I touch up the oily areas around my nose with a bit of powder occasionally, it doesn't break down much due to oil.
ConsLight Color: The shades seem to be tailored for lighter skin tones. I usually use shade 23, and for those with slightly darker complexions like mine, the colors might appear too light. Blemishes: There are fine shimmer particles in the foundation, so you need to pay extra attention to cleansing. I'm not sure if it's because of this product, but I kept getting blemishes while using it. Since I don't get them when I'm not wearing makeup, I think it might be the cause. Those prone to blemishes should be cautious. Touch-ups: While the longevity is decent, when you touch up and apply more product, it can emphasize dead skin cells and texture. Being matte, it may cause more flaking than other foundations.

ConsIt smudges easily and comes off quickly. After using it for about a month or two, I broke out in blemishes and what seemed like hives all over my face.

There was no darkening, and it seemed to hold up well without feeling oily later on.
ConsI bought this in a rush at a nearby Olive Young and was initially satisfied when I applied it. However, after 2-3 days, it started settling into my nose creases and appeared slightly darker than my skin tone. The shimmer wasn't particularly appealing either. Now I'm regretting why I bought this - the ingredients are truly terrible! I usually have clear skin without acne, but after using this, my forehead turned into an acne party zone. Red bumps appeared on my cheeks, and even around my mouth, I got these little bumps. I'm only now checking the ingredients, and I wonder why a brand that does animal testing would include so many harmful ingredients... I've been constantly applying La Roche-Posay Cicaplast and Effaclar Duo, but instead of improving, it's getting worse.

It doesn't apply thickly, but rather looks just like my natural skin. When it fades, it doesn't break down messily - instead, the foundation seems to gently disappear.
ConsEven on my shade 23 skin, it looks too yellow. It darkens over time, making me look tanned. I developed small blemishes (not recommended for sensitive skin).
TipFor those with dry skin, using a damp sponge will help the foundation blend seamlessly without looking patchy, creating a beautiful finish.

I was worried the pearl finish might be too much, but it's actually subtle and looks great. It's perfect for summer when I sweat a lot - other foundations would melt off and transfer, but this one stays put and doesn't smudge as much. Definitely a good choice for hot weather!
ConsThe coverage is disappointing. The color is also a bit off - I usually use shade 23, but the Gold Ivory shade looks slightly too light on me. What's worse, I've been getting a lot of blemishes on my cheeks lately, and I think this foundation might be the culprit. I was concerned about the ingredients not being great, and it seems my sensitive skin is reacting badly to it. That's a major drawback for me.

When applied in thin layers with a puff, it wears beautifully. The subtle shimmer gives my skin a nice glow. I was surprised that the Gold Ivory shade, which I thought would be the darkest, was actually brighter than expected. It matched well with my reddish undertone.
ConsThe coverage isn't exceptionally high. Due to the shimmer, you'll need to pay extra attention when cleansing. The formula is quite runny, making it challenging to control the amount when pumping. Unfortunately, after only a week of use, I've experienced a significant breakout. I suspect this might be due to more potentially irritating ingredients compared to my previous foundation.
