Unlike the UV cushion shade, Reboot makes my complexion look darker. It really lacks coverage and is too watery... I ended up using only 1/3 of it before switching back to my imported cushion foundation

Being a squeeze-out product, it's more hygienic than cushion foundations

리부트 파운데이션 [R230 아이보리]

This foundation works perfectly with the Skinfood wedge puff! I dot it on with my fingers, then blend with the puff. I use any excess product left on the puff to add an extra layer just on the center of my face for that Inner Glow.

I immediately understood the reviews complaining about the strong fragrance. Did they really need to add so much scent? That's why I'm deducting one star.

I have warm undertones and use shade 23. The formula is so lightweight that it should work for both warm and cool tones. It brightens my complexion nicely and looks natural even when it oxidizes a bit.

As someone with oily skin who uses blotting papers multiple times a day, large pores, and acne-prone skin, I regret only using matte foundations until now. Unlike some high-coverage foundations that can emphasize texture, this one doesn't accentuate dead skin cells on uneven areas, making my skin look better than ever.

One layer gives a 'your skin but better' look, but amazingly, adding a second layer dramatically increases the coverage, concealing most blemishes. The pore-blurring effect is seriously impressive - I almost ran late admiring myself in the mirror!

(To be fair, this might partly be because I've only used cushion compacts for years, so using a liquid foundation again feels novel. But even accounting for that, it's still excellent.)

Fellow oily-skinned friends, don't be afraid to try this! Especially if you have a light complexion! It gives such a beautiful, clear skin look (and I have a deep undertone).

The only downside: the ingredients are not great at all... I think that's why I got some small blemishes. That's why I had to take off one star.

It's so moisturizing and makes my skin look absolutely beautiful! To be honest, I bought this to mix with my Chanel foundation because it was too matte, and I'm really satisfied. The shade is also a perfect match for my complexion!

Seems like there's no option for zero stars. After using it once, my skin completely broke out, so I've stopped using it altogether. I bought this expensive department store product, and I'm really angry about it...

It works well with tanned skin, which is why I decided to buy it. When I applied it, I found it to be similar to...

I noticed it only applies smoothly if you've done a thorough skincare routine beforehand. A good skincare prep is absolutely essential!

At first, you might be surprised by the lack of coverage, but if you keep layering it 2-3 times with a damp sponge, it builds up beautifully, providing both hydration and coverage!

These days, I'm using it with a fixer or powder to prevent it from transferring to my mask.

For summer use, it might be too runny. If you tend to sweat a lot, you'll probably need to finish with powder.

I tried this 'reviving foundation' after hearing about it, and I loved it so much I bought it! It seems to work well for dry skin, with medium-low coverage. It's moisturizing, which is great for cold weather. When I used it in summer, I wasn't impressed, but now that winter's here, I'm really satisfied.

The coverage is absolutely non-existent. Only people with perfect skin should use this.

It's so hydrating! Usually, when I use foundation, I get deep dryness, but with this, there's none of that at all.

For best results, I recommend using a sponge instead of a brush to apply and build coverage (a tip from a YouTuber). Pair it with Wake Make or Marubi concealer for spot coverage, and you'll achieve a beautiful, lightweight finish that covers well.

The only downside is that due to its thin consistency, you tend to use more product than usual.

As someone with large pores, scars, acne, and combination dehydrated skin, I've always relied on matte, heavy foundations. Switching to Reboot's lightweight, hydrating base is a game-changer! It feels so refreshing.

The coverage is definitely on the lighter side, unfortunately. While one application does make your skin look cleaner and more even, it doesn't effectively conceal blemishes or acne. Also, this might just be me, but after application, I feel like there's a slightly yellowish tint to it, which isn't ideal.

As my first foundation, I'm quite pleased with the final result! The application feels great, and it seems to adhere well to the skin. I initially applied it with a brush, but using a puff works just as effectively! The staying power isn't bad either. My main priority was finding something that looks natural - that 'no-makeup makeup' look. After exploring various brands and trying them on, this one felt the least heavy and most natural. The application experience was the best, which is why I chose it!

Applying with a brush gives a dewy finish, while using a puff creates a thin, skin-like adherence. My personal favorite combination is using it with a damp Innisfree Mochi Blender!

My skin tone is an awkward 22, so Y218 and R230 are too light, while the next shades down, Y225 and R233, are too dark. Additionally, the Y shade is too yellow and the R shade is too pink! But I can't give up on Reboot's amazing skin finish, so I bought both and mix them...

As someone with combination dehydrated skin, I've always stuck to matte foundations. But Reboot completely changed my perception of dewy foundations! I've tried almost all the high-end department store foundations in the rankings, but I can confidently say this one takes the crown for skin appearance! The formula is truly remarkable - it feels like I've only applied skincare even though I'm wearing foundation. It's incredibly lightweight on the face! Unlike matte foundations, there's no heavy, cakey feeling. Instead, it evens out my skin tone while letting a bit of my natural skin peek through, creating a subtle glow. I never thought my skin could look like this - it's a whole new world! Plus, it applies thinly and adheres well, so it doesn't transfer onto masks as much. I always thought matte was the way to go for less transfer, but I was wrong! For such a hydrating formula, the staying power is impressive - it lasts well into the evening!

I checked the ingredients on Hwahae and they don't look great. While I'm a bit more lenient with makeup than skincare, it's still something to be cautious about. I tried using the brush that came with it, but it's not particularly good - the puff is much better. The brush leaves streaks! The coverage is quite low, more like a brightening moisturizer than a foundation. You'll definitely need concealer after using this. The amount you get is small, making it seem pricey for the volume.

It's nicely hydrating. The pump dispenser works well. Compared to the same shade in the brand's HD foundation, this one gives a slightly brighter look. While the coverage is light, it's perfect for when you want a more natural, less heavy makeup look.

I was shocked to discover how poor the ingredients are. I wouldn't recommend this for those with sensitive skin or pregnant women. Moreover, the coverage is really lacking - it can conceal mild blackheads, but it doesn't do much for acne scars or blemishes. My routine involves pumping it twice and applying with a brush to even out my skin tone. Then I use a pot concealer for spots, followed by a cushion foundation to finish up. I use a puff to blend out any brush marks and smooth out uneven areas.

First off, it's great for brightening the complexion and evening out skin tone. While the scent is quite strong, I personally enjoy the powdery fragrance, so that wasn't an issue for me. I've been applying it with a Picasso pore brush (131) instead of the dedicated brush, and it does leave some brush marks. Nevertheless, I'm really impressed with how radiant it makes my skin look.
