The second number represents coverage, increasing as the number goes up. Unlike other foundations, I appreciate the wide range of shades available, allowing you to find one that truly matches your skin tone. While I prefer a more hydrating feel over matte, my skin tends to get oily in the afternoon. So, I opted for the semi-matte finish with coverage level 3 for a natural look. It works well for my oily skin in summer, but I might need a different option for winter when my skin becomes dry. The coverage was surprisingly good, enough to conceal minor blemishes. The semi-matte finish strikes a perfect balance - neither too dewy nor too matte - which I'm really enjoying! In terms of longevity, it's not extremely long-lasting. On my skin, it stays put for about 5-6 hours before gradually fading. I suspect the wear time might be shorter in summer due to excess oil and sweat. When I saw it in-store, it looked lighter than the usual shade 23, which worried me a bit. However, once applied, it blends naturally into my skin. It's a great match for those with shade 23 skin tones!
ConsIt's really challenging to control the amount that comes out. I squeezed a bit harder because only a small amount was coming out at first, but then a huge glob came out. I ended up wiping off more product on the back of my hand than I actually used on my face!
TipFor those who want improved longevity, try setting the foundation with a powder after application. This should help it last longer.

What I love most is the color - it's absolutely beautiful! It's not too dull or yellow, nor is it carrot-toned. It's just the perfect shade 23. The coverage is good, and its matte finish makes it great for summer wear.
ConsThe amount of product seems a bit small, and the opening tends to get dirty easily. As time passes, it can get a bit oily.
TipIf you use a makeup fixer, the staying power becomes incredibly good. When it feels a bit dry, try applying it with a puff that's been lightly spritzed with face mist.

The adherence varied depending on skin condition but was generally appropriate. However, exfoliation is definitely necessary. Being semi-matte, I felt it might be challenging to apply on days with severe dead skin cells. Right after application, it had a very subtle glow finish, and Innisfree's typical darkening effect wasn't severe. Rather than having strong longevity, it seemed to wear off gracefully. Most importantly, considering how Amore Pacific's road shop foundations usually run light, I think this foundation's shade 23 was well-matched to its intended color.
ConsThe longevity seemed somewhat weak for a product labeled as semi-matte. As time passed, it felt like the oil layer was separating and coming to the surface. About 4 hours after application, it looked more like I had applied a glowy foundation rather than a semi-matte one.
TipFor those with dry skin desiring stronger staying power, it might be beneficial to finish the T-zone with a no-sebum powder after applying this semi-matte foundation.
