I'll use it sparingly until spring, and when my skin starts acting up, it's definitely time for a repurchase. - Apply it to areas prone to creasing like around the eyes, mouth, and nose And voila! No more creasing, just long-lasting makeup that's totally amped up! - After using this and applying makeup, I got a 'Wow, your skin looks amazing!' compliment! (A rare occurrence for me, I must admit...)
Cons- It feels like you're coating your face in oil, which can be a bit heavy. But that sensation only lasts while applying, and once you put on foundation and such, it feels fine. - It might be too much for oily skin types. I have combination skin, so I only applied it to my T-zone, around the eyes, sides of the nose, and around the mouth! - While it helps with minor skin tightness, it doesn't do much to prevent deep dryness from winter heaters or cold winds... (And I really thought it would 😓)
TipIt works wonderfully in winter, and it's also great for this transitional season! I'm planning to use it year-round, except for summer. It's that good!

It helps makeup last longer!
ConsThe ingredients could be a bit better. The price isn't exactly low either, so I can't fully recommend it, but it's still pretty decent!

Looking at it now, the ingredients aren't bad and it absorbs well. The staying power is decent, and it gives my face a beautiful glow. Makes my skin look good. (I'm actually using this more often than the Strobe Cream) I think it's a must-have for those with dry skin. Highly recommended for extremely dry skin! It's just oily enough without looking greasy, which is perfect for this chilly weather. If you apply it partially as the last step of your skincare routine, your makeup doesn't pill and it absorbs beautifully. The amount is generous too. Some products don't have a pump, but this one does. It's great that it has an inner cap to prevent oil and moisture evaporation.
ConsIt's a bit pricey... You can't buy this online, so you have to purchase it at the offline retail price. (I just noticed it was on Tmon recently for 3,000 won less than the retail price, but with 2,500 won shipping, it's pretty much the same.) Also, MAC doesn't give any samples, which can be a bit disappointing even when you buy a lot.
TipApply it by gently rolling it on specific areas of your face as the last step of your skincare routine, then apply makeup. It won't pill and will absorb nicely. The MAC sister also told me that when touching up makeup, you can apply this stick to areas where makeup has worn off, then layer cushion or foundation on top. I tried it and it really works! The ingredients are good, and it's a useful item to have in your makeup pouch. (Its small size makes it perfect for carrying around in your bag)

My face gets dry and flaky when the weather turns cold, but since I started using this, my skin's been like honey - so smooth! I'm not sure if it's just in my head, but I feel like my makeup lasts longer too when I use this. It really works hard for your skin!
ConsI received this as a gift, and the price... ouch! But it's so good that I'll probably have to keep using it. My wallet's crying, but my skin's happy!
TipIf you've applied a heavy cream, using this on top might be too much. I'd recommend finishing with a lightweight moisturizer before layering this on. That way, you'll get the perfect balance without overdoing it.
