The 50ml size is quite generous compared to other department store makeup bases.
ConsI had high expectations since it's such a popular product, but ultimately it didn't suit my skin. I developed blemishes, so I stopped after trying it a couple of times. If it hadn't caused breakouts, I would have continued using it. It's a shame.

The pearl effect isn't overwhelming, and every time I turn my head, there's a subtle glow. It also provides hydration, making it really fantastic as a base product.
ConsI really want to use this, but every time I do, my skin freaks out! I had an important appointment yesterday, so I applied it... Ugh. Right after putting it on, I felt itchy and a burning sensation, but I ignored it and went out. Later, my face turned red and I got these gross little blemishes all over. This doesn't happen with other cosmetics, just this one...
TipIf only it suited my skin, this would have been a holy grail product I'd never let go of... I love it so much. When you use it as a base, apply foundation, then add a touch more to your cheekbones, brow bones, and the bridge of your nose without setting powder, your complexion looks absolutely incredible.

The application is great, it absorbs well. The promised glow really delivers as expected.
ConsMaybe because I used it in winter, but after application, I noticed dead skin cells and it was extremely matte. Even with a solid skincare routine and using a moisturizing foundation, the dryness was unavoidable. The ingredients might not have agreed with my skin, as I developed small bumps on my forehead and around my nose. I stopped using it after that.

ConsI rarely get blemishes, but this caused some small bumps to appear...

ConsThe main reason I don't recommend this is that, more than its functionality, the smell is so strong that I can't use it. When I apply just this, it makes me feel nauseous and dizzy. Also, it seems to actually emphasize my pores.

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.ProsWhen I apply this, my skin feels hydrated and my complexion looks brighter. I usually use a yellow-toned foundation, and this product neutralizes the yellow undertones so well. I really want to keep using it!
ConsHowever, as someone with an oil allergy, I suspect it's the jojoba oil in this product that causes a reaction. Every time I use it, by the time I remove my makeup, I get some kind of breakout... It's truly heartbreaking to have to give up on this product.
TipFor those who might have similar issues, I recommend buying the travel-sized version from the official website. That way, if it doesn't work for you, you'll feel less disappointed about the purchase.

ConsI was oblivious at first, but small bumps started appearing only on the areas where I applied it. After 6 months, it got worse, and I had to see a doctor for medication. Thinking it might be due to something else, I tested it again, and it turned out to be Mac Strobe Cream. Yesterday, when I applied Mac Strobe Cream, my T-zone, nose bridge, cheeks, and chin became red and irritated. It's so stressful! People say it gives a glow, but now that I can't use it anymore, I'm wondering what to buy instead...

It makes my skin look so much better, and I love how it gives a shimmering effect as soon as I put it on.
ConsWhile I loved the glowing skin effect, it unfortunately caused blemishes. I couldn't give up, thinking 'surely not', so I used it for a few more days, but my skin went haywire. When I applied this before my cushion, my skin looked great, but the moment I washed my face, I could feel how much worse my skin had become.

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.ProsIt looks dewy when applied and gives a nice glow. However, I can't really tell the difference whether I've applied it or not once I put my cushion foundation on top.
ConsThis product doesn't show up when you apply makeup over it. After application, my face feels stuffy, and as time passes, I experience deep dryness and tightness. To make matters worse, I get blemishes and tiny bumps. I bought this along with the Guerlain base at duty-free, but the Guerlain one is a million times better. Even when I mix it with sunscreen or BB cream, I still get those tiny bumps. Ugh! While I'm using up my Guerlain products, this one is just rotting away in a drawer corner. It'll be heading to the trash soon.
TipJust use a highlighter instead. This absolutely doesn't work for those with dehydrated skin. Even with a solid skincare routine, you'll still feel tightness. After finishing both Guerlain products and searching for a new base, I bought the Etude base, which I'm enjoying because it's nicely hydrating.

ConsAs time passes, my face tends to get oily, which unfortunately leads to recurring blemishes.
