Most importantly, as I have very sensitive skin and don't usually wear much makeup, this is so gentle and I really like it. Even during long outings, I've never felt my face becoming stuffy, and there's no breakdown in skin expression. I'm on my second container now and have been recommending it to those around me.
ConsSmall blemish cover and basic tone-up would be good, but if you want a stronger blemish cover or brighter tone-up, it would be better to mix with other products or apply an additional layer.

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. 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.ProsSince around 2020, I've been using it for about 5 years after learning about it through Hwahae. During the COVID-19 period, I felt my skin was getting worse from wearing masks, so I started using a Hwahae Trial Reviewer product, and I'm satisfied with the results. - The feeling of itchiness on the skin is greatly reduced when wearing the product. - There is almost no uncomfortable or stuffy feeling. - It breaks down beautifully - it's more like a floating (?) feeling than just sliding off. - After switching to a BB cream, my problematic skin has improved a lot. - There is hardly any of the typical caking of the product (although there was some caking after about 12 hours when I applied powder on top). - It covers pores and uneven texture well. - The creamy texture applies smoothly. - It has a moisturizing formula. - It looks nice on the skin even when applied with just my bare hands (which is convenient for travel, when I'm lazy, or short on time). - My base makeup rarely lifts. If it does, it's likely due to an issue with the previous skincare step or sunscreen, not the product itself. - It has a grayish tone, but when applied, the grayness disappears, and it actually brightens my skin tone (I'm in the 20-21 shade range). - While individual experiences may vary, I find that a little goes a long way - even my friends who I "sold" on the product say they don't need much. In fact, I often end up wiping off the excess with a tissue. But when mixing it with other products, a small amount can sometimes be insufficient, so a bit of leftover is unavoidable. - As it's a regenerative BB cream used in esthetics clinics, it's quite gentle (I've heard BB creams originally started as post-treatment products in dermatology clinics). When I first used the Pimonche BB cream, my blemishes and marks weren't covered well, but as I continued using it, my skin improved, and my blemishes and breakouts decreased, so I didn't need as much concealer anymore. This positive cycle has been great for me. Now, I only need to lightly cover any occasional breakouts caused by hormones, diet, or the environment.And it might just be my imagination, but I've gotten so used to the BB cream that when I occasionally try on some foundation samples, I feel like my skin looks and feels a bit heavy or cakey, not as seamlessly blended as the BB cream. I'm not sure if it's just me feeling that way, but the BB cream seems to meld with my skin better.
ConsThere's not much that I'm really dissatisfied with. If I had to pick something, it would be the coverage... The coverage is a bit light, but it's better not to have high expectations, as that's better for your mind and body. (I tend to try to achieve a thin skin expression, so I actually don't have high expectations for foundation coverage either) You can consider using a concealer if you think you need more coverage. The price is a bit of a downside, but even considering that, I'm generally satisfied. That's why I only buy it through group purchases, around 40,000 won. You can also find it cheaper at duty-free shops if you happen to go abroad. If you have the chance to go overseas, I recommend checking out the online duty-free shops. For those with extremely fair skin, it may be too dark. 19 is probably the maximum shade, and for shades beyond that, I recommend mixing it with a different corrector.
TipThe price is a bit high, so I recommend trying the best 7 sample set on the Hwahae website, which includes a BB cream, before making a purchase. For shades up to #19, it should work well, but for those with brighter skin tones, I suggest mixing in a corrector or lighter shades. Since I have a slightly yellow undertone, I often mix in about 20% of a purple-based base. For those with oily skin or who don't like a shiny finish, applying it with a puff can help reduce the oiliness a bit.

ConsThe coverage is almost non-existent, but if you apply it thinly a few times, it does cover a bit, though not as much as foundation
TipYou can mix a small amount of the Touk Watercolor Base in Lavender and Green to create a naturally radiant look from the start

It's not stuffy and the color looks natural. It's moisturizing and nice.
ConsIt doesn't seem to be focused on coverage. If you want coverage, you should use a concealer first before applying it. Depending on the tool, there may be some creasing around the nose area.
TipLayering it with a damp sponge several times works well.

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. 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✔️My skin is sensitive, but I haven't experienced any breakouts while using this product. ✔️My skin doesn't feel burdened. I dislike when my face feels stuffy, but this product makes my face feel comfortable. ✔️I trust this product since it's an aesthetic cosmetic. ✔️I've been told that my skin has improved since switching to this product. I think I've used it for about 3-4 bottles already.
Cons✖️It's a bit pricey. However, I find that I can apply it thinly and it lasts a long time. ✖️When used alone, the color can be a bit ambiguous - a grayish, dull tone. But I think it looks fine when applied to my face, though it may not suit those with brighter skin tones.
Tip➕I mix it with a green-based or white concealer, or apply it and then use a BB cream. This helps brighten the tone and make it suit my skin better. ➕I also use it as a touch-up in my portable cushion compact. ➕Since it's a bit pricey, I try to purchase it during Instagram group buys or when there are discounts on the brand's official website.

ConsOver time, the lasting power is not that good There is a bit of creasing around the wrinkles I recommend applying it thinly under the eyes and between the eyebrows! The coverage is also low It helps match the skin tone, but it doesn't make it brighter
TipIf it feels a bit dry, I recommend spraying a fixative and applying it with a sponge You can also apply it thinly with a spatula

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. 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- Coverage: It instantly conceals pores and faint blemishes! The BB cream looks dark, but when applied, it seamlessly blends into the skin, giving a tone that's half a shade brighter. - After Makeup: Natural glow, no heavy/cakey feeling, no pores or wrinkles visible. - Lasting Power: The coverage lasts an incredibly long time! - Usage Duration: I've used it for over 6 months. - Value for Money: I mix it with my makeup base, and judging by the remaining amount, I think it will last me about a year. I do my makeup 3-4 times a week.
ConsNot yet! However, since the coverage is not very high, I use a concealer for the corners of my mouth, sides of my nose, and darker spots.
TipI prefer a brighter skin look, so I use it with a green-based makeup base. And since I like a matte finish, I set it with powder, but I highly recommend it if you want a natural glow! It's great for quickly sweeping it on and heading out the door.

It's definitely less stuffy and feels more comfortable, and there's no exaggeration of flaky skin, which I liked. I'm now on my 3rd bottle...? And I'm using my 2nd cushion! My skin has turned around, but I want to put on makeup? Then I'll just go for it with this! I'm using the order of tone-up base + peach makeup + a little powder treatment!!
ConsThe two main reasons I'm now wondering whether to switch back to foundation after using up so many of these. 1️⃣ For my combination, oily skin, it feels too oily... It's really the best right after application, but without powder, it's too oily to use. 2️⃣ There's no darkening, but the tone is just one, so a makeup base is essential for fair skin!! Otherwise, it's closer to a bare makeup look than a made-up one...
TipIf you have oily skin, powder pact treatment is essential. If you have fair skin, it's recommended to use a tone-up base together!

I'm on my third bottle! I used to be a nomadic Estee Lauder user, but surprisingly, using Pimongseu was a breath of fresh air. I can really feel my skin breathing! It's so comfortable, and even when my skin is in poor condition, it doesn't accentuate the problems and still looks beautiful!!! Highly recommended!
ConsAlthough it's on the pricier side, it's worth it since it lasts a long time and I keep repurchasing it. I don't have any complaints.
