The longevity is not bad either, and I didn't get a single blemish on my face.
ConsThe container is so unsanitary and smells terrible ㅠㅠ And the product has hardened, making it difficult to close the lid later.
TipI think it would be better to buy a pump and use it.

It also helped control the oily shine to some extent, which I liked. The coverage also felt adequate for me. I perform frequently, and it doesn't come off even under strong stage lighting, so I've been using it well. Most importantly, the price is extremely, extremely reasonable^^ It has the best cost-effectiveness, so I've been using it for 2 years (I may not have found my holy grail yet~).
ConsBut if you want a glowy or radiant makeup look, this is not recommended. When you first use it, there is a 'cement?' smell; I also couldn't get used to it at first, but now the smell has become somewhat familiar, so I just accept it. It dries up right after application; you have to spread it as quickly as possible. It requires a certain technique and practice^^;
TipWhen you want to achieve a glowy look, I recommend thoroughly moisturizing the base and using a highlighter-like pearl powder at the foundation stage, then applying the foundation. Or you can mix it with oil and apply it to get a bit of a shiny effect.

The color tone is a medium shade that suits the face well.
ConsAfter using it, it has a somewhat dry texture. In the winter, it dries up quickly even in the air.

Since it's out of stock, I'm leaving a review here. 🌸 Semi-matte It seems to be good for using in the summer. Oily-skinned people can use it year-round, and if you feel it's too oily, you can use a more matte one in the summer. It's not too drying, but it's also not overly dewy, and it doesn't really transfer much once it settles on the skin. 🌸 Minimal irritation I've never had my skin get irritated or flare up from using this. 🌸 Spatula in the lid I'm not sure if this is a pro or a con, but it can be convenient depending on how you use it!
Cons🌸 Rose Ivory shade It's more pink-toned than it appears in the photos. It has a slight salmon undertone. I couldn't capture it properly in the photos. While it does make my skin look brighter when I apply it, over time (?) it becomes a bit ambiguous. It's not exactly a beautiful shade. That's why I used to mix it with a cleaner, brighter ivory foundation. (But that was too much of a hassle, so I ended up just using it on its own - not a big problem though) 🌸 Slightly drying and itchy Even when using it in the summer, right after application my nose area would feel dry and one part of my face would feel itchy, making me want to touch it. But it didn't cause any major breakouts or anything. I'm not sure if the minor blemishes were due to this product, so I'll just pass on that.
TipIt works best if you dispense it onto the back of your hand, spread it evenly, and then pick it up with a puff (any kind will do). The texture is quite thin, not thick and creamy, so using a puff makes it easier to apply evenly. You can also use your fingers, but it doesn't spread as nicely that way, and the mixed foundation shades can look a bit uneven. It dries fairly quickly, so using the puff to dab it on works well - just do a quick 'dab dab dab' motion. Oh, and if you have a cushion that's a bit too dark or the tone doesn't quite match, you can mix a bit of this in to adjust the color. It worked well for me!

I'll give you a bow first ㅋㅋ I lost my AirPods today and ran all over the neighborhood, sweating profusely, but it didn't budge at all. I tried to do my makeup, and I was shocked. Even if I drool in school and sleep, it doesn't budge. It just doesn't budge. The lasting power is insane, and the skin expression is great!!! By the way, I've tried all the Clio cushion series and the drug store cushions, and even the department store foundations that are said to have good lasting power, but they all made me break out or didn't last more than 3 hours. But I bought this 12,000 won foundation and heard compliments on my skin for the first time. Those of you who are hesitating, just run to Lohbs and buy it. Use the money you would have spent on department store foundations to buy chicken. And some say the smell is bad, but I don't find it bothersome at all. By the way, I can smell chicken from a hundred meters away, so I have a really good nose.
ConsThe lid is dirty ㅠㅠ Please change the container.. And it hardens too quickly, so as soon as you apply it to your face, it makes a 'slush' sound and you have to spread it around.
TipThat Etude Glow On or whatever, when you apply it, the inside is moisturized and the outside is fluffy - it's perfect~

ConsDries out. Dries quickly, so it's hard to apply evenly if not applied immediately. Emphasizes flaky skin.

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.ProsThe color is just perfect for shade 21! But even though I'm shade 22, it didn't look weird or patchy when I used it. There's no darkening, and as time passes, it looks like my original skin is peeking through, just like after applying makeup. It doesn't get weird. The coverage is just average, but the tone evens out nicely. When I first apply it, it goes on a bit oily, but then it dries down to a matte finish. This might be a love-it-or-hate-it thing... I'd recommend it for normal skin types! And after fully applying it, there's not much transfer. The matte finish seems to help with that. Since I have quite a bit of peach fuzz, this level of adhesion is satisfactory for me! However, as time goes on and the oils come through, it does start to show a bit around the nose area... (But that's kind of unavoidable. The only solution is to really pack on the primer.) As for longevity, I'm satisfied! Foundations usually don't last well on me, but this one stayed put for about 6 hours! And the price! It's really affordable... I got it for 5,900 won!
ConsWhile using this product, I didn't really notice any issues with my skin, but there were some aspects of the product itself that I found a bit disappointing. The scent and the quick drying time, as well as the lack of a pump, were a bit of a letdown. The scent was really hard for me to get used to at first. It wasn't an overpowering stench or anything, but since it's something you're applying to your face, the faint smell lingered for a while after application. It's a hard scent to describe, since it's something I've rarely encountered before... but it did become more tolerable after about a month, or even as quickly as 2 weeks. And the quick drying time! I tend to apply foundation in small amounts all over my face, rather than just on the back of my hand. So when I'd go to apply it to my cheeks or forehead after doing my T-zone, it would already be starting to set and feel a bit tacky. By the time I got to my chin, it was quite dry! But that's manageable since I can just work in sections. Lastly, the packaging is glass and has a spatula-style applicator attached to the lid, rather than a pump or tube. This feels a bit unhygienic to me, since the spatula is constantly touching my face and going back into the jar. So I ended up transferring it to a Daiso empty container to use instead.
TipYou're absolutely right, transferring it to a Daiso container makes it so much more convenient to use! And among the options, I'd highly recommend the 15ml vacuum pump bottle. It's the perfect size to hold comfortably in your hand, and since the full size is 30ml, you can split it into two 15ml bottles - one for at home, and one for touch-ups on the go. The small size is so easy to work with, it's lightweight, there's no risk of leakage, and the lid stays securely closed. It's just an all-around great solution! Definitely recommend going that route.

I would recommend this to someone who likes a matte finish.
ConsThe skin expression doesn't seem to be expressed very prettily. Also, if you don't apply it quickly and spread it out, it hardens up fast.

The coverage was not completely absent, but since I prefer products with higher coverage due to some pigmentation on my face, I was not fully satisfied. Adherence: 8 out of 10 points. The adherence is quite good. With other foundations, when I make a call, the phone screen gets covered, but this one hardly leaves any traces. Spreadability: It dries very quickly, so if you leave it on your face for a long time, it becomes difficult to spread evenly and can create blotches. The formula is very thin. Overall, the coverage is medium, but the adherence is good. It's a very drying type, so if the base is not properly prepared, there can be some pore emphasis, but the finish is nice.
ConsFirst of all, the smell... It has a paint-like odor. And it dries very quickly, and it's in a spatula form without a pump. The spatula doesn't seem very hygienic. Due to the quick drying, even though I kept the lid on tight, it got a bit clumped up. It's on the drier side, so it might be difficult to use in the winter (but good for summer).
TipI've been using it for about 6 months now, and my skin is oily, so it wasn't particularly drying for me. But for dry skin types, I would highly not recommend it (even my oily skin sometimes shows some flakiness). The brush is a very big no-no when applying. It leaves streaks and is difficult to spread evenly due to the quick drying. Using a damp sponge definitely reduces the pore emphasis, but it feels like it wears off faster and has less coverage (and less adherence). I always use an undampened sponge, and it lasts longer and has better adherence. The coverage is also better than the damp sponge, but it's a bit more difficult to apply. With some powder on top, this could be a good product for oily skin types in the summer.
