The main advantage I've noticed from using it daily is that the ingredients are gentle. That's about it. It's not that I never get any blemishes, but they seem to be less severe than with other foundations. To be honest, I couldn't find another gentle foundation, so I've been using this one reluctantly and repeatedly.
ConsThe lasting power and coverage are just so-so. The 21 shade is brighter than expected, and the 23 shade is just about my skin tone (I usually use 21). So I'm using the 23 now, but it's too natural-looking - I even remember buying the VDL Mebae Serenity before. Other than the ingredients, there's not much else... So on days when I can't skip makeup, I just use this foundation casually.
TipIt has a semi-matte finish, so those with dry skin might want to apply a generous amount of base products. If you find it starts to break down in the middle of the day, you can powder the T-zone area.

The color is pretty I usually use shade 23 or a slightly darker color than that. My skin has a warm undertone with a lot of yellow. The color looks just right on my skin and doesn't feel overbearing. It's bright enough without looking dull, but not so natural that it's unnoticeable. 2. It's incredibly gentle My skin is extremely sensitive, and sometimes when I even apply sunscreen, my skin gets irritated, and I have to wipe it off and apply medication. But this was almost the only base product I could use. No matter how good and suitable a base product is for me, my skin tends to get irritated and hurt if I wear it for a long time. But this one doesn't cause that problem at all - there's not even a slight stinging or irritation, even when I apply it to my irritated skin. That's why I keep using this product... It's really gentle and a lifesaver for my skin. And even though my neck is more sensitive than my face, and anything I apply causes hives, this product was still okay. Thank you, Apieu, for making this... I won't let you discontinue it. 3. Moisturizing and excellent coverage It's moisturizing, but it also has pretty good coverage. It can't cover large blemishes, but it does a good job of concealing redness around my nose and small spots. 4. Makes my skin look beautiful It doesn't make my skin look like porcelain or a peeled egg, but rather gives my skin a nice, natural glow. It expresses that my skin is naturally pretty. 5. Great for touch-ups It doesn't cake up, so give it a try. It's worth it.
ConsThe adhesion is no joke... Seriously... The spreadability is also no joke, seriously... Without powder treatment, fingerprints will definitely, absolutely remain on the skin. It's not just a matter of leaving fingerprints, but if you apply it a bit thickly, it starts acting up on the skin... It spreads thickly... At first, it's also difficult to control the amount, as too much comes out. The longevity... the darkening... the longevity is a bit lacking, and the darkening is not insignificant...
TipAlways apply a base (recommend tone-up sunscreen or cushion foundation). Lightly apply powder. Before using the puff, make sure to dab on a small amount and apply it. Use a different sponge (I use the Sponge Wedge Puff) instead of the built-in puff, lightly dab it on and apply as thinly as possible. This way, the drawbacks are mostly covered.

The ingredients seem to be gentle.
ConsThe lasting power was a bit disappointing. And the herbal-like scent might be divisive, but I'm satisfied with using it.
TipThe shade 23 is bright enough, so if you have fair skin, you should choose the 23 shade! I also saw that they sell cushion puffs in a pack of 5 at a discounted price. I recommend buying the puffs as well and changing them frequently for better hygiene.

ConsIt clung to my nose and felt uneven. The staying power was also not good.

It's so great to use from the moment my skin starts to get a little dry! It's moisturizing, radiant, has great coverage, and seems gentle even though my skin is quite sensitive!! My skin also tends to flake easily, but this foundation keeps it moisturized and well-covered, which I love so much ㅠㅠㅠ I've had times where my skin had broken capillaries around my eyes that looked unsightly, but this foundation was able to cover it well when I went out.
ConsI usually use shade 21, but I bought this in shade 23... Even 23 is quite light haha The color seems to come out really bright. It's not a big deal, but I feel like the shade doesn't quite match. Also, it was a bit too moisturizing for me to use in the summer.

ConsWhen it breaks down, the skin texture and pores become more prominent, which is quite disappointing in terms of longevity.
TipYou can build it up in thin layers while applying your makeup.

ConsEven though I have dry skin, if I don't finish with a powder, by the time school ends, my face is an oil slick ㅜㅜ. When that happens, it just wipes off when I touch it. And the puff is really not great.
TipTry using a different puff!

The scent is not too strong, it's like a forest smell? Eucalyptus scent. It's as moisturizing as if I had poured in an ampoule, not dry at all. I recommend this to people with dry, sensitive, oily, or inflammatory acne skin. My skin got even better when I used this. The coverage is so good that I don't even need a concealer.
ConsI used shade 23 before, and everything was good, but it was too bright. Shade 23 looks like 21, it's too bright for me, so I gave it to my mom whose face is very white.

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.Pros1) Good Ingredients: I had developed seborrheic dermatitis, so I bought and have been using this product to cover it up, as I only used to apply sunscreen before. It doesn't seem to be worsening or irritating my skin. 2) Coverage: I was using a Hera product before, and this one's coverage is slightly less, but not by much. I didn't have high expectations for the coverage since many said it's not great, but by carefully controlling the amount and layering it on thinly and lightly, the coverage builds up nicely. Don't try to apply it all at once in a thick layer, but rather build it up gradually in thin, multiple layers. 3) Texture: There's a slight cooling effect when applying it, probably due to the ingredients. And if you control the amount well, it applies smoothly and thinly. The more layers you build up, the higher the coverage. 4) Color: The color is between shade 21 and 23. It may seem a bit too light for some, but it's a perfect match for me. It works great as a base, and with contouring and highlighting, my face looks nicely sculpted.
Cons1) Adherence: It's a bit disappointing. The product doesn't cling tightly to the face, but rather sits on top of the skin, almost as if there's an oily layer on top. 2) Longevity: It looks great right after application, but starts to break down after about 3 hours. Others have mentioned that it accentuates pores and uneven texture, especially around the nose area. For me, since my pores are already quite large, it's about average in that regard. 3) Fading: I used to use the Sulwhasoo pore perfecting foundation, which would beautifully break down over time. This one doesn't do that dramatic fading, but it doesn't darken either. However, the oiliest areas do wear off quickly, so touch-ups are necessary after about 3 hours.
Tip+ For the areas where you want higher coverage, layer the product on with a "tapping" motion. For other areas, just lightly dab it on once. + If you have a combination skin type, make sure to balance the oil and moisture levels before applying makeup to prevent it from looking cakey. + For drier areas that feel overly dry, try lightly applying some oil on top before putting on the foundation. + I recommend using a puff to lightly layer the product - just dab a small amount onto the puff and apply in thin layers. + Right after application, it has a luminous glow. After 3 hours, it transitions to a more dewy look. After 5 hours, it can start to look a bit oily, but this can be controlled with powder or blotting papers. + It doesn't cake or flake during touch-ups, but it can accentuate dry patches slightly. + The puff quality isn't great, so I recommend purchasing a separate, higher quality puff. If you find the makeup looks too cakey, try switching to a different puff.

But this one has madecassoside, so it feels a bit more moisturizing and is less irritating to my skin. The coverage is also medium-to-high, so it covers most of my concerns.
ConsThe coverage is good and everything else is fine, but the puff doesn't seem to work well. Every time I apply it, it leaves puff marks on my face, and the longevity and wear aren't that great.
