  Pros

  This product seems to be more suitable for those with large pores than concealer. While the formula glides on smoothly, it doesn't feel overly fixed in place, which I found to be just okay. However, when used like a foundation, it does an excellent job of filling in and covering pores. As someone with larger pores, especially on my nose, regular foundations often fail to conceal them completely. But this product, while not able to perfectly hide my large pores, does make them appear as smooth as possible. And unlike a typical concealer, it doesn't crease or cake up around the sides of my nose. I used to have issues with primers separating or clumping in that area, but this product solves that problem.

  Cons

  The formula of this product comes in two shades, Vanilla and Chantilly, and the two formulas are quite different. I sampled them before purchasing, but the final product was different from the samples - Vanilla is a bit more runny, while Chantilly is drier and applies more thickly. I ended up mainly using the Vanilla shade and barely touched the Chantilly. However, as summer came around, the Chantilly shade started applying more similarly to the initial sample, so I've been using it again. I can't quite figure out what changed, but in any case, the formulas are not as consistent as I'd hoped (the Vanilla remains similar to the initial sample). This inconsistency is why I'm deducting a star.

  Tip

  For those with large pores, especially on the nose area where primers tend to separate, I'd highly recommend trying this product as an alternative to primer.

  Pros

  This foundation has incredible spreadability and pore coverage. Since my previous foundation ran out, I've been using this one by applying it lightly and spreading it out widely, and it glides on smoothly, filling in pores like a plastering job. My mom is also a pore-prone person, and we both exclaimed in admiration after she started using this product. The concealers I used to use would actually accentuate my pores, which was frustrating, but this one covers them up nicely. The coverage is about medium, which is good for a concealer. Since this product contains a lot of silicone, the application is just like that - smooth and silky. It works great on the central parts of the face, like under the eyes, cheeks, forehead, and nose. I use the Benefit Porefessional and L'Oreal Lumi primers, and this foundation seems even better than those two. Especially for covering large pores on the nose, this makes them look seamless.

  Cons

  I usually wear a bright ivory base, but the vanilla shade has a pinkish undertone with a hint of grayness, giving it a dull feeling. It doesn't have the radiant pink tone of a makeup base. The brightness itself matches my skin, but it just lacks any kind of vibrancy. It would be nice if there was a yellow-based shade in this range, as the options are either too bright or too dark. Also, this type tends to not adhere as well when applied over a dewy base, so it might be better to use it with a lighter skincare routine, especially in the summer. It applies in a matte finish, which is good for pores, but doesn't play well with uneven texture on the skin. It's not extremely accentuating, but I think those with a lot of skin texture may not find this to be a good match.

  Pros

  Even though the concealer is said to be so famous...I haven't tried the liquid version. I went to the store, tested it, and bought it based on the recommendation that it's a new release... I don't have extremely dark circles, so the coverage was quite good. I applied it under my eyes before putting on foundation in the morning... It has a good glide and looks smooth right after application. It seems matte, but the finish was decent enough.

  Cons

  I don't use it anymore;; In the afternoon, I noticed it had all come off and even started creasing ㅡㅡ I've never had my makeup wear off like this before, but it looked like grime on my face. What's this, I thought, and it turned out to be this product. It's incredibly dull and emphasizes wrinkles...ugh;;; I only wiped the eye area in the evening, and you can guess what happened~~ It was just the eye area that was ruined...really... No, this is the worst product for me... I'm not extremely dry or oily, but still...
