Hwahae UserOily SkinSensitive SkinAcne SkinFeb 24, 2019This moisturizing foundation applies smoothly without any tightness or patchiness, making it perfect for winter use. Its hydrating formula works well with both sponges and flat brushes, so it's versatile enough for any tool. This makes it a great option for beginners who can easily achieve a flawless application. The shade is too light and floaty, making my face look puffy. While the hydrating formula is a plus, it's also a drawback. Without powder, it sticks to hair and breaks down quickly. With powder, the foundation transfers onto brushes and puffs, causing the makeup to come off. Also, it has almost no coverage, so it's only suitable for those with already good skin. A concealer is absolutely essential with this! - Hwahae UserCombination SkinSensitive SkinAug 11, 2017Reviewed by The Hwahae Testers

The positive aspects were: 1. There was no stickiness when applying it to the skin. 2. The fragrance was also lovely! 1. However, it tends to make hair stick to it easily. It would be nice if there was a cooling sensation, but there isn't any. After using foundation and applying a cover cushion, it tends to sit on top of the skin rather than blending in. Since it's a matte product, it might work well mixed with a hydrating moisturizer or oil-based product when applying. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinSensitive SkinAcne SkinAug 5, 2017Reviewed by The Hwahae Testers

First off, the initial application felt amazing - it adhered to my face beautifully. The scent was also more pleasant compared to other foundations. I have combination dehydrated skin that gets oily in summer, so I applied it with a damp beauty sponge. The finish wasn't too matte or too dewy, which I loved. Despite my super sensitive skin, I didn't experience any irritation or allergic reactions. The coverage isn't particularly impressive. If you have blemishes, I'd recommend using a concealer alongside it. Of course, if you're going for a casual summer look, it's not a big deal - makeup is all about personal satisfaction, right? The real disappointment comes when it starts to break down. It deteriorates in an unsightly manner, clumping around each pore. Unless you have flawless skin or can avoid sweating entirely (maybe by having a chauffeur with air conditioning on full blast), I wouldn't recommend it. The adherence and absorption are good, but the coverage and wear time are subpar. It might actually perform better in winter. Be sure to test the shade before purchasing. I usually wear shade 21, but due to my summer tan, I opted for C02. However, it turned out too red and slightly darker than expected. It might work well for those with a more bronzed complexion. For me, it was too red to use alone, so I mixed it with my usual foundation (Missha Radiance in 21), which worked perfectly. This combination improved both the wear and the color match. In conclusion, while it has good adherence and absorbs well, it's challenging to use on its own. It could be useful for shade adjustments when mixing foundations. However, at 16,000 won, it might not be worth the investment for summer use. You might be better off sticking with a foundation that already works for you and treating yourself to a delicious meal instead!

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.I loved that it comes in cool and warm tones, so I could choose one that matches my complexion! I was in a dilemma because shade 21 was too light and 23 too dark, but 22 was just right for my skin tone. Above all, the staying power was fantastic! It gives a natural finish with light application, but you can build up the coverage by layering. For my oily skin, it provided a shine-free, matte finish with great longevity and a perfect color match! There weren't many downsides, but since I've been using the Hwahae app to choose cosmetics, I've become more ingredient-conscious. I'm a bit worried because it contains some ingredients that aren't great for oily skin. I don't have any special tricks, but I found that using a mist pack before foundation to boost hydration, followed by a pore-minimizing primer, really helped my makeup last longer! - uq*****Dry SkinSensitive SkinAcne SkinBrightening/Dark SpotsSebum/BlackheadsDark CirclesAug 2, 2017Reviewed by The Hwahae Testers

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.First off, I love that this foundation comes in various shades, allowing me to find one that perfectly matches my skin tone. As someone with a tricky 22 shade, I was thrilled to discover that the Cool 02 gave me such a natural-looking complexion! What's more, it applies so thinly! As someone who prefers a natural skin look, this was absolutely perfect for me. The formula is wonderfully hydrating, yet it sets to a beautifully matte finish, which really helps with its staying power. I wore this to a festival and was amazed that it didn't budge at all! Even after getting splashed with water guns, my skin still looked flawless for hours! I'm really puzzled as to why there's shimmer in this foundation. It's such a disappointment. Even after removing my makeup, I still find little sparkles on my face. That's definitely a drawback for me. My application method: After using a sheet mask, I dot the foundation lightly on my face and then blend it out using a damp air puff. This technique helps it apply evenly and thinly! - un*****Dry SkinJul 30, 2017Reviewed by The Hwahae Testers

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.First off, I loved how lightweight it feels! It's perfect for a natural, no-makeup makeup look. It applies smoothly like an emulsion and leaves the skin feeling hydrated. This product seems ideal for those with clear skin. I didn't notice any issues with it breaking down or oxidizing, but I used it as a base and applied only a small amount. Results might differ if you use more! I usually wear shade 23, and C02 was slightly lighter on me. I'd recommend this for anyone looking for a moisturizing product for summer! The downside is that the coverage is quite sheer, so it might not be enough for those with blemishes or imperfections. It really gives that 'your skin but better' look - almost like you're not wearing anything at all. While it's hydrating, it's more suited for summer use. I suspect it might feel a bit dry in winter. Unfortunately, it didn't work for me, so I'll have to pass on this one! - Hwahae UserDry SkinJul 28, 2017Reviewed by The Hwahae Testers

It naturally covers redness and flushed skin. I have a slightly tanned complexion, so I used C02, and it matches perfectly! Personally, I'm a bit disappointed with the packaging. I think it would have been better if it had a transparent case so we could see how much product is left. As it is, it's impossible to tell how much is inside. Apply it over your primer, and it's perfect for this sweltering summer weather when you want to avoid feeling sticky!

The scent is quite noticeable, but I was okay with it. Those who dislike fragrances might not appreciate it though. I love matte finishes, and this one has a nice glow without being excessive - it leaves a pleasantly smooth feel. For a Korean drugstore brand, the shade range is impressively diverse. As someone who usually wears shades 22-23, I found the color match to be spot-on! There's shimmer in it... Thankfully, the shimmer particles are on the smaller side. But seriously, why add shimmer to a foundation? Why??? I'm genuinely curious!!!!! It's just okay... Those who enjoy a bit of shimmer might find this to be a good budget-friendly option.
