The formula is very fluid and lightweight, with minimal pore clogging. It maintains a seamless, non-greasy finish for an extended period without breaking down. It provides a matte, skin-like appearance, not a glossy look.
ConsSince my skin is currently in a state of dermatitis, using this foundation for two consecutive days (due to ingredients like PEG, etc.) has caused my skin to become more irritated. When I stopped wearing makeup for a few days, my skin recovered significantly, but it has started itching again... Review after dermatitis is fully healed: ---------------- After completely cutting out skincare and makeup for over a month until my dermatitis fully healed and my skin stabilized, the urge to start wearing makeup again has resurfaced (damn it). Ultimately, using this foundation for two consecutive days has caused my dermatitis to flare up again. The reaction was immediate, and the affected area is the same as before - my cheeks. The maddening itch is not as severe as before, but if I continue to slather on makeup products, it will only get worse. I will not be wearing makeup again for the time being unless I can find a foundation that does not contain the ingredients that aggravate my dermatitis. Finding such a product would require trial and error, testing each one meticulously. Otherwise, I'll be trapped in this vicious cycle, and my skin will only deteriorate further. When I do manage to identify the culprit ingredients, I'll need to thoroughly purge my vanity of all offending products. In any case, I've learned that the Missha Glow Foundation contains ingredients that exacerbate my dermatitis.
TipI also believe that the tools I used contributed to the dermatitis flare-up. I had been using a large, rounded brush, applying the foundation by sweeping it on vertically with the bristle tips, which ended up poking my skin. I belatedly realized this and stopped using the brush, but in my hypersensitive state, it was likely still an irritant. If I do use a brush again, I should opt for a flat one to avoid this issue.

It applies lightly like skincare and absorbs quickly, adhering thinly without feeling heavy or causing any blemishes, so it's great for everyday makeup without any burden. As a dewy foundation, it adheres thinly while giving a subtle glow. The subtle glow is like the level after completing skincare, not overbearing, and it evens out the skin tone well, making the skin look great, which I really like. The fragrance is subtle and not burdensome, which is good. The longevity is good, and even after several hours, there's no darkening, it matches my skin tone perfectly, and the neckline doesn't stand out, so it looks very natural. I have sensitive skin, but I've been using it daily for over a week, and there have been no breakouts at all. It creates a transparent and clear skin expression, so it blends well with any skin type. The thin and lightweight yet moisturizing formula with a subtle glow makes the skin look naturally healthy when applied. Summary: The thin and lightweight formula applies smoothly, brightens dull skin tones while not looking overly made up, and finishes with a dewy yet semi-matte look, making the skin appear healthier.
ConsThere were no disappointing aspects. The coverage is light, but that's why it looks natural and makes the skin look good.
TipThe formula is very thin and moisturizing, so you can quickly complete your makeup by sweeping it on with your hands and then lightly tapping it with a foundation brush. It creates a transparent, skin-like finish, so if you want to cover any dark spots or blemishes, you can layer it 2-3 times or use a concealer on top. I apply it in the order of skincare -> primer -> concealer -> glow foundation -> cushion -> powder.

I used to use the Innisfree foundation, but it was very cracked and flaky. I didn't realize that was because it was applied too thickly. But after using this product, the formula and adhesion are significantly different. I received a trial size through the Hwahae Trial Reviewer program and have been using it very well, and I plan to purchase the full-size product once I finish this one. If it wasn't for the event, I wouldn't have even considered using this product!
ConsThe downside is that the coverage is a bit weak. Personally, I don't place much importance on coverage, so it's not a big issue for me. But for those who value coverage highly, you may need to use a concealer well. Also, the longevity on the forehead area is a bit lacking. I'm not sure why, but it seems to wear off more easily on the forehead.
TipIf you apply the foundation with a foundation brush or a damp sponge, and then use a concealer to cover certain areas and brighten, you can achieve a very natural and smooth skin expression! Oh, and I have large pores on my nose, so when it adheres too thinly, the pores stand out more. Using a primer would be much better. Also, I found that mixing it with a Missha Signature Essence Cushion BB helped improve the longevity.

First advantage, adhesion 🌟🌟🌟🌟(excellent) Second advantage, longevity 🌟🌟🌟🌟(excellent) Third advantage, thin formula 🌟🌟🌟🌟(excellent) 👉 This drugstore foundation gives a dewy and glowy finish. Foundations that make the skin look glowy often sacrifice adhesion, and to increase adhesion, you have to give up the glow when patting with a puff or sponge. When I first squeezed the foundation on the back of my hand, it seemed very watery, so I thought the adhesion would be poor, but when I applied it to my face, it went on thinly and adhered well immediately. I think this is thanks to the thin formula.
ConsDisappointing aspects: First, the shade range Second, fading & darkening Third, dryness
Tip✔The performance of this product can vary greatly depending on how you do your skincare before applying the foundation, what base products you use, and what tools you use to apply it. I'll add one by one the results of the various combinations I've tried over the past 2 weeks.

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.Pros🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟Hwahae Trial Reviewer Review🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 1. Texture and Application As it's a 3-in-1 formula (Skin+Foundation+Sunscreen), the texture is like a runny sunscreen. The thin, fluid texture glides on smoothly and the adhesion is incredibly impressive. This is revolutionary! It's perfect for my style!! Hallelujah😘 It's great for quick morning makeup routines^^ Oh, it's so good😇 It's not overly dewy, but has a lightweight, seamless finish on the skin. 2. Skin Expression The formula absorbs lightly into the skin, leaving a slightly powdery, yet hydrated finish. It's not a radiant glow, but a natural, transparent skin-like effect. It's not like the foundation ads with celebrities, but more like the natural, innocent & daily makeup tutorials on YouTube. That's the kind of skin expression it provides!!!^^ If you prefer a natural, innocent-looking makeup, this is perfect for you!!😍 While those focused on coverage may not love it, I really appreciate the natural skin finish, so I gave it 5 stars. 3. Longevity It lasted half a day, which is pretty decent👍 4. Personal Impression It feels more like a runny tone-correcting sunscreen than a foundation. In short: 1. Lightweight coverage 2. Exceptional application (quick makeup ok) 3. Incredible adhesion!
ConsIt does provide some coverage, but it may not perfectly conceal pores or blemishes. If you apply it in thin layers with a brush, the coverage can be built up. Or you can use this product and then apply foundation or powder for extra coverage. (Tip: Don't expect full coverage in one application - take it step-by-step.)
TipIf you want a super glowy makeup look, you can apply a dewy primer like the Missha Glow Skin Balm before using this product, and you'll achieve a radiant, luminous complexion.^^😚

Although it feels quite moisturizing, it actually sets to a semi-matte finish. So I think this would be great for those who like a semi-matte look. It feels very similar to the Missha All Around Safe Block - the watery texture is especially comparable.
ConsI normally use the Clio Nudism Cover XP cushion in 04 Ginger, but this Missha Glow Skin Foundation in 23 was much darker than that. While the Clio cushion brightens my skin by about half a to one full shade, the Missha foundation matched my skin tone exactly. If you value high coverage, this may not be the best option for you, as the coverage is only medium-to-high. Even with my severe redness, it only covered about half of it.
TipHighly recommend this when you're feeling really lazy!!

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.Pros#Hwahae Trial Reviewer Winner #One-week Review As I have an extremely sensitive skin and my combination skin tends to get very dehydrated during seasonal changes, along with a lot of flakiness, I always pay close attention to coverage, dryness, flakiness, and longevity when using base makeup products. This product has a very fluid, runny formula. Due to the formula, the coverage is not that great, but I really liked how it adheres lightly yet evenly on the skin. And as the name 'Glow Skin-dation' suggests, it gives a subtle glow, making the skin look healthier. I have a combination skin type, and my T-zone area is quite dry, so flakiness often appears over time, causing the base makeup to break down. But this product really supported my dry T-zone well and didn't cause any flakiness, so I was completely satisfied with it in terms of the flakiness issue!🙊🤭
ConsWhile I was satisfied with this product in terms of dryness and flakiness, which are important factors for me when using base makeup, I was quite disappointed with its performance in terms of controlling blemishes and longevity. 😢My combination T-zone is extremely oily, and this product just broke down too easily on my oily areas. After about 2 hours of wearing it, my nose area was completely covered in oil, so I had to re-touch my makeup. And I also developed a few large, painful blemishes on my forehead and cheeks, which didn't just look like small bumps. So I think sensitive skin types should definitely do a patch test before using this product, as there seem to be quite a few ingredients that may not be suitable for sensitive skin.🤔
TipIf you use a sponge to apply this product, the sponge will likely absorb most of the base, leaving very little for your actual face. 😂 I think this product works best when applied with a foundation brush. The brush with a flat, porous head works particularly well with this product.😊 Since this is a very lightweight and thin formula, you should also apply your skincare and primer products in thin layers before using this, so that it doesn't slip or move around too much and you can achieve a glowing, seamless look.👍

The formula has a runny, soft texture that applies smoothly. When using a puff, the application was light and thin, creating a natural-looking skin finish. When applied with my fingers, the coverage increased and the product adhered well. Using the puff gave a dewy, hydrated skin look, while using my fingers resulted in a slightly more matte, velvety finish. This is a good product to use for a quick errand or short outing.
ConsThe coverage was a bit disappointing. It's a bit better when applied with fingers, but the coverage is lacking compared to other products. It also feels slightly drying. A few hours later, I could feel some tightness on my face. And the product also tends to break down and cake up... I had to use my usual cushion to fix my makeup right away, which I don't normally do.
TipIt's great for a quick outing as it gives a natural-looking finish.

Moisturizing As someone with extremely dry skin, even after applying a rich moisturizer, my makeup would still feel a bit dry and accentuate flakiness. But this product doesn't cling or emphasize flakiness at all! 2. Application The watery formula initially surprised me when I squeezed it out, but being thinner in consistency, it applies smoothly and evenly. 3. Adherence I was worried the 'Glow' in the name might mean it would be a bit tacky, but it adheres nicely to the skin without feeling heavy or transferring easily. There's also no visible patchiness or fingerprints left behind. 4. Longevity Given the lightweight application, I was concerned it might break down quickly, but I was pleasantly surprised by its impressive wear time. In my experience, it lasted around 7-8 hours before needing any touch-ups.
ConsIt's really great in every other way, but the coverage is a bit lacking ㅠㅠ It doesn't conceal redness or blemishes well, so a concealer is a must!
