  Pros

  First of all, the case is so much my style and the color matches so well. Whenever I apply foundation or BB cream, it usually matches well at first, but over time it always feels like it gets darker than my original skin tone. Moreover, I've been using pink beige all this time, but this time I tried switching to a more yellow-toned one, and I'm much more satisfied with how natural and bright the color is. The texture is so smooth and adheres well to the skin, so I can spread a small amount across my entire face. It also gives a very seamless, skin-like finish.

  Cons

  For facial contouring, I intentionally apply less foundation or skip it altogether on areas like the hairline and jawline. So I didn't feel any discomfort when doing the outer contouring. However, when doing nose contouring, even the slightest brush stroke leaves visible brush marks on the foundation, and that area gets completely wiped off. So using this foundation makes it quite difficult for me to do powder contouring. Also, the longevity seems quite lacking. When I check the mirror after school, the 'Perfect Cover' claim is nowhere to be seen, as the unevenness is very apparent. But I'm hesitant to do touch-ups, as the foundation doesn't seem to have much moisture, so it might look cakey. The area around my cheekbones especially appears very stark and white. Additionally, foundations that come in a mesh dispenser tend to get used up quite quickly. Since the puff frequently touches the central part, by around 3 weeks of use, most of the foundation has shifted to the sides, making it very difficult to apply. In summary, while this foundation is truly perfect in the initial application and for a few hours, over time it loses all of its functionality. First of all, the case is so much my style and the color matches so well. Whenever I apply foundation or BB cream, it usually matches well at first, but over time it always feels like it gets darker than my original skin tone.

  Tip

  When I want to make it more hydrating, I'll spritz on my existing essence or facial mist, gently pat it in with my fingertips to help it seep through the mesh dispenser, and then pick it up with the puff to apply. Or I'll dot on the foundation first, then spritz the mist over it, almost stamping it onto my face. The application tool really makes a big difference in how smoothly it applies. So instead of just washing an old puff, it's better to get a new one, as that will help it apply more seamlessly. If you like the water-drop puffs, dampening it or using basic techniques can make it apply really well - the Daiso water-drop puff in particular has a great size match with the foundation's mesh.
