  Pros

  I received this as a gift, and I was told it costs 82,000 won at the department store. It comes in cool-toned shades 12 and 22, and this one is shade 22. Since it's a powder type, not a foundation, even though it's a bit darker than my complexion, it doesn't feel noticeably dark, so I'm using it without exchanging. It's a pressed powder type, and while its particles aren't as fine as those two famous brands, when applied well, it has surprisingly good adherence and lasting power. What's really impressive is the subtle glow it gives - it makes your skin look naturally beautiful. There's something about its soft light reflection that brightens up your face. You know how some powders look super matte but feel extremely drying? While powders inevitably dry out the skin to some extent, this one is less drying than most. That's another thing I liked about it. Korean skincare has come a long way, and I think our base products are really good now. However, I feel like we're still slightly behind in color cosmetics. This might be more noticeable for me as I have a cool undertone. International brands seem to create richer color ranges, probably because they cater to a wider variety of skin tones. It's not just about the brand name - I'd choose this in a blind test too. It made me realize 'this is why people buy it'.

  Cons

  The price? Well... [laughs] But since it has good staying power, I end up using less of it, so I guess it balances out in a way.

  Tip

  For me, just applying 'sunscreen + primer + this compact' was enough. Even though it's a powder and doesn't provide much coverage, the glow (light reflection) helps to even things out. Also, I found that using the included puff to apply it works better than the built-in brush.
