Pros

It seems I have a darker skin tone than I expected. It blends in very naturally and seamlessly. You said it doesn't have much coverage, but if I don't have high expectations, it does provide a somewhat smooth appearance. It's not matte, but looks dewy.

Cons

If you look at it the wrong way, it may appear sickly, and you'd have to separately apply highlighter, which could be inconvenient. My face may look slightly discolored, and it has a slightly rancid smell.

Pros

The coverage is great in shade 23. It gives a natural and healthy skin tone feel. It applies evenly without any creases or pores.

Cons

Compared to the foundation I usually use, I felt it went on a bit thicker and my skin felt stuffy. After using it for about 3 days, I developed breakouts on my chin and cheeks, so I stopped using it.

Pros

✴️To be honest, I would give it 4.5 points. Giving it just 4 points feels a bit too stingy, but 5 points also seems a bit excessive. (For an objective review...) ✴️As I do a lot of outdoor activities in the summer, I tend to get tanned easily. This is a product I bought a couple of years ago in preparation for that. ✴️I used it well this summer too, and I occasionally take it out to use. The color is a bit dark for me, but without even using a concealer, the color itself is dark enough to cover blemishes and redness (Other people say it has no coverage at all). Compared to foundation shades in Korea, this one has a bit more of an orange undertone, but when applied to my face, it blends well with my skin tone. ✴️The great thing about this foundation is that it's incredibly lightweight, yet it doesn't lose its moisturizing properties. The longevity is not bad either, though there is a slight tendency for it to crease around the nose area. ✴️Most importantly, the dewy finish of the foundation doesn't make my skin look cakey, and I sometimes take it out to use. ✴️I plan to repurchase it, and next time I'll try a 2-3 shades lighter.

Cons

The cap is made of rubber, and after using it for a while, it gets really dirty and grimy. Having to wipe it clean every time is such a hassle.

Pros

The color is really calm, so it's easy to apply naturally. The product itself doesn't have high coverage, so it helps express the skin in a bright and natural way, so I recommend it as a light foundation.

Cons

The MAC foundation itself comes out too dark, so it's good to test it and choose the color carefully.

Pros

It applies smoothly and lightly, and a small amount is sufficient to cover.

Cons

The coverage doesn't seem to be very good. You'll probably need a concealer to cover blemishes.

Pros

The texture is smooth and it has a nice matte finish, with decent staying power as well.

Cons

It's inconvenient that the pump dispenser is sold separately and needs to be purchased additionally.

Pros

Those with good skin will have beautiful skin expression! There's no need to worry about it fading.

Cons

Hmm... Even as time passes, there's hardly any breakdown, just a slight darkening?? But honestly, I didn't really care and didn't feel any discomfort. It does rub off easily though, so be careful with white clothes! I'd always lean on my boyfriend's shoulder, and it would turn his shoulder peach-colored ㅠ And the coverage isn't that great either. Since I have relatively good skin, even a couple of small spots are hardly noticeable😭

Pros

I'm using Mac foundation as well. It doesn't have any redness and major blemishes, so I think the coverage is quite good~ There are many foundation shades, so if you ask the staff for a recommendation, they'll help you well^_^

Cons

I asked the staff for a recommendation, but ended up buying a color that was too dark... Now I'm using it mixed with another foundation. And I wouldn't recommend it to those who need a lot of coverage! The coverage is only about 20-30% in my opinion.

Pros

A small amount was sufficient to cover the entire face. It has a good spreadability and is known for its wide range of colors.

Cons

Since it was just a sample, I didn't have much choice, but the color was disappointing. I usually use shade 21, so it felt too dark. But even setting that aside, as someone who likes yellow-based shades, it felt too yellow. I don't think I could even use it for contouring. The fragrance reminds me of foundation without any additives - a bit stuffy, so I don't think I could use it for everyday natural looks.
