  Pros

  Application: It doesn't dry too quickly, so it doesn't leave marks. As a semi-matte product, the texture is thicker compared to other foundations. This makes it challenging to achieve a very thin skin-like finish, and it's noticeable that you're wearing makeup. However, it does feel like it adheres well to the face. Longevity: Thanks to its good adherence, the staying power isn't bad! But when it does break down, it's not pretty. It's a shame because Estée Lauder and Armani products break down so beautifully. Being semi-matte and thick, you can mix it with sunscreen or other foundations to suit the season, but there's not much you can do about the unattractive breakdown. However, if you touch up well during the day, the breakdown shouldn't be a big concern except in summer. Other advantages: The price is really reasonable, and with its excellent adherence, I think it's a great value-for-money product.

  Cons

  I've listed all the pros and cons in the advantages section! I just wish it could be applied a bit more thinly! While this might partly be due to my heavy-handed application, based on other reviews, it seems it genuinely doesn't apply thinly.

  Tip

  Try mixing it with different products to find the texture that works best for your skin. It's decent on its own, but isn't the fun of foundation in mixing and matching?

  Pros

  Absolutely top-notch. I've tried every high-end foundation out there, and nothing comes close to this one (if you know of any, please comment!). First off, for a complexion product, the ingredients are excellent and it adheres to the skin beautifully. Without any setting spray or powder, it lasts a solid 6 hours. It's a product I can rely on year-round, be it summer or winter. I use the shade Porcelain, which has a slight yellow undertone, but it's so light that it blends seamlessly, giving a radiant finish. My application method is just using my hands - whether I apply a generous amount all at once or build it up in thin layers, it always looks flawless. The coverage is high, and both the adherence and longevity are superb!

  Cons

  During seasonal changes, it can occasionally look a bit off, but thanks to its excellent adherence, it's hardly noticeable.

  Tip

  During seasonal changes or winter, ensure you have a solid skincare base using products that absorb quickly without pilling. Then apply this foundation. I realize this review might sound like a staff promotion, but I assure you it's not. I'm on my third bottle, purchased with my own money.
