I'm not one for full-face makeup often, more of a casual makeup user. As someone who doesn't use much foundation, I've been using this for quite a while now. The quantity is generous, and it's not bad at all. I've tried applying it with a wedge puff, brush, and beauty blender, but none worked well. So I just use my fingers to apply very small amounts multiple times. Absolutely don't apply too much! Just a tiny bit! My nose pores are quite large, so I use this to cover them. I like that it's lighter than concealer but works better than liquid foundation. I dab a tiny amount on my fingertip, about as much as I'd use for cream blush, and gently press it into my pores with circular motions. This can make you think, 'Were my pores always this small?' Apply with moderate pressure to avoid leaving white residue in the pores. If you press too hard, it might just end up sitting inside the pores. It covers old acne scars the best!
Cons- I'm not sure about its staying power. I don't notice much dead skin cell emphasis, but as my skin gets oily, it seems to absorb the foundation, making it disappear (though it seems to hold up well without touch-ups). - The foundation color doesn't match me well. I think there might be some darkening? - For me, the quantity is too much - a bit of a downside. I don't think I'll be able to use it all before it expires. - Oh! The container is too heavy to carry around! This is a real drawback! But when I try to put a small amount in a portable container, it seems to dry out.
TipIf you use a more hydrating sunscreen, it absorbs well and creates a good base. Use a sunscreen that's good for layering. I'm currently using Dr. Jart+. Applying with fingers works best. When covering nose pores, you really need to apply a tiny amount. Start with an extremely small amount, and if it's not enough, add another tiny bit.

I have oily skin and usually prefer very matte foundations, but the previous version would make my face crack when the weather got a bit dry. This one is more hydrating - even my friend with dry skin says it's usable except in the dead of winter.
ConsWhile it's more hydrating, it's lost a lot in other areas. First off, the staying power and coverage have really decreased. The original Catrice Matt Mousse was unbeatable in terms of longevity and coverage, but since the renewal, it's only slightly better than a cushion foundation. So I won't be repurchasing. Also, the color coding isn't the system commonly used in Korea, which makes choosing the right shade inconvenient.
