I loved how bright the color was. When first applied, it made my skin look flawless. The coverage seems to be medium to high. It caked up a lot on my skin. I have blemish-prone skin, and it accentuated those areas even more. The transfer and breakdown were disappointing. It might be better suited for summer use. Even with my oily skin, I found it a bit drying in winter. - Hwahae UserOily SkinAcne SkinJan 24, 2022
I've been using this for 4 years now! The way it fades is so beautiful that I can't help but stick to this product. I wish the coverage was a bit better... Still, it's great value for money, and the way it wears off is so pretty. Highly recommended for students! It's a perfect match with the cushion puff! - Hwahae UserCombination SkinAcne SkinDec 18, 2021
First, let me describe my skin. It changes with the seasons and I have larger pores than most. My skin is bumpy with excessive oil production, making it incredibly difficult to apply foundation. My pre-makeup skincare routine alone takes over 40 minutes. As a makeup major who often wears heavy makeup with intense products, plus constant mask-wearing, I've developed millet-like acne and severe flaking. Add to that dark circles from college life and part-time jobs... it's been in terrible condition. I've tried countless 'hydrating' products from Olive Young, but my skin remained parched underneath while looking oily on the surface, even with matte foundations. Finding the right foundation has been a struggle for 20 years. I've tried all the highly-recommended ones, even splurging on expensive brands, but nothing lasted. I initially bought this foundation in a pink shade for makeup certification practice, not intending it for personal use. After getting certified, it sat unused for months until I ran out of my usual foundation. To my surprise, not only was it a beautiful pink tone (a refreshing change from the yellow or ivory shades I'd been forced to use), but it also gave me a decent complexion! While I still need to prep my skin thoroughly with toner for the best results, my friends keep asking what I'm using, impressed by my 'makeup major' look. No settling into nose creases or wrinkles - what are those even? Turns out, all the girls in my department with flawless skin use this too! This foundation is a game-changer. I've recommended it to everyone, and they've all switched. Trust me on this. ❤️ The mask photo was taken at 1 AM after applying makeup at 2 PM the previous day and going out drinking. Notice how there's no transfer despite wearing it all day? My skin looks perfect. I even tried rubbing it with a clean puff - no smudging, it's like it's fused to my skin. Believe me, try my tips. All photos were taken with an iPhone 13 Pro. This amazing skin was captured at 1 AM, 11 hours after application! No filters used ❤️ If you don't prep your skin properly... well, it won't look as nice. And be careful layering other products on top, as it can break down the foundation and ruin the look. Use toner to make your skin baby-soft and plump - this is crucial! The most important step is applying the foundation with a spatula (I used one from Picasso). Don't apply too much at once; thin layers are key. This is absolutely essential. Then, gently pat it in with a puff for a long time. If you do this, I promise it won't break down. Even if you put on makeup in the morning, go out drinking, and check when you get home the next day, it'll look like you just applied it... beautiful even as it wears... a lovely glow. Love you! - Hwahae UserCombination SkinSensitive SkinOct 6, 2021
This foundation is a total bargain! It wears beautifully, applies lightly, and everything about it is just fantastic! The only downside? It doesn't break down in a super luxurious way. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinMay 11, 2021
This affordable foundation offers great value for money. It doesn't break down easily and isn't too oily, making it perfect for summer use. It gives a radiant look, especially for cool-toned skin. If you don't moisturize well beforehand, it can crack and feel a bit dry. However, even when it starts to wear off, the color still looks decent. - Hwahae UserDry SkinFeb 7, 2021
I'm currently using this for my base makeup. I was hesitant to try it at first, thinking it might apply too thick like a foundation, but I was pleasantly surprised. It applies much lighter than I expected, which I really like. Perhaps because it's so moisturizing, the staying power is... a bit lacking. Even when I meticulously apply my base makeup in the morning, it starts to break down by the afternoon. To improve the longevity, I've been mixing it with BB cream. I use a ratio of about 4:2 - 4 parts of this product to 2 parts BB cream. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinSensitive SkinOct 3, 2020
For my sensitive face with acne scars, the coverage was just okay. It did manage to conceal some redness. I don't think it's particularly great for acne-prone skin. The YouTube reviews seem a bit exaggerated... The staying power isn't bad though. When I apply it before school, it holds up until lunchtime, but by 6 PM, it's noticeably worn off. Considering the very affordable price, it's not a bad product to try. The way it breaks down isn't pretty. It seems to darken the skin a bit too much. It's worth buying during sales or when they offer 5 free puffs. - Hwahae UserOily SkinAcne SkinJul 13, 2020
It's just a perfectly decent foundation that's easy to use! I'm on my third bottle now. I hadn't really noticed before, but the other day when I was about to remove my makeup, I saw that it had broken down quite messily. I think it's worse in the summer. I find it works better with a dry sponge rather than a damp one. - Hwahae UserOily SkinAcne SkinJul 12, 2020
The coverage and adherence are both excellent. It blends seamlessly with my skin, looking natural, and doesn't cause any blemishes. I'm not sure if it's because I'm not skilled at applying makeup, but when I set it with powder, sometimes it lasts a long time, while other times it breaks down quickly. If you apply a good hydrating base first, it adheres perfectly to the skin, which is fantastic. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinAcne SkinApr 20, 2020
Well, it seems like a decent drugstore product for students to use. With its diverse range of shades, it should suit many people. It covers pores well, and its blemish coverage isn't bad either. Those without much acne might not even need a separate concealer, which is great! The downside is that as time passes, it gets quite oily and tends to break down in an unflattering way. This might vary from person to person, but that was my experience with this foundation. For those who usually wear shade 21, this color might be too light - it certainly was for me.
