It provides more coverage than regular concealer. You shouldn't use it like regular foundation. Even using half the amount of a rice grain can cover the entire face. It applies smoothly and evenly, like a poached egg. It covers blemishes well. It makes the skin look nice. It's not drying, which is good. It seems like a makeup product for special occasions. The 218 Yellow Beige color has no reddish undertone, which I like. I recommend it for skin tones between 22-23. It's good for thicker skin. If you want to cover redness with a slightly yellow tone, I recommend this. If coverage is your priority, this is a good choice. For normal skin, you can also use it as a concealer. It's waterproof and sweat-resistant, so it's good for the intended use. The amount is way too much - it'll last forever.
ConsโขIt's been a while since I bought it, but I don't reach for it often. I think it's because it's too creamy. Absolutely don't apply it thickly. It can really cling to and accentuate texture, making the makeup look theatrical. It covers my entire face tone, which I don't prefer. If you prefer a more transparent base that lets your natural skin shine through, this is not for you. โขFor those with slightly yellow-toned skin, the 218 color can look a bit too yellow and dated. โขIt has a feeling of a lot of mineral oil being applied. โขIt requires a lot of powder application.
TipControlling the amount used is key. It's perfect when used with a puff.

I used a sample to switch to another foundation, but I realized that my face was like this and came back to this foundation. This foundation is the only one that can cover my freckles with a combination of foundation and concealer. Even Double Wear needs more than foundation and concealer to cover the freckles I have. And this foundation expresses the face very smoothly and evenly. Although it's impossible to get a dewy finish, you can get a glow by patting it with a damp sponge! It even gets more beautiful when it starts to break down.
ConsIt's surprisingly weak in water! If you spray a lot of mist because it's dry, a disaster can happen where you have to remove all your makeup and redo it. You absolutely can't use it alone! When I used it alone once, I felt like I was wearing a plaster mask and my face was tight all day. You must mix it with a creamy moisturizer! Even gel-type moisturizers don't mix well with this foundation. Double cleansing is a must! If you don't double cleanse, you'll get more pimples. Cleansing oil or water seems necessary for double cleansing.
TipI like to do my makeup not too bright, and by mixing 218 and 207 in a 1:2 ratio, I can achieve a 21 shade that's not too bright. The most important thing is to use an extremely small amount! If you scoop up the solid foundation a lot, you'll end up wasting it by having leftovers after doing your makeup. Personally, mixing with the blue Nivea cream worked well for the moisturizer!
