ConsIt pills when applied with the hands While it is a hydrating product, it doesn't have great lasting power, so it's difficult to use it as a primer There is some fading and transfer My sensitive skin reacted with breakouts It has a very noticeable white cast
TipIt pairs amazingly well with dry foundations! I strongly recommend using a sponge instead of your fingers I'm so disappointed that this product was reformulated... Please bring back the original version...

I'm surprised the rating is not higher, as I highly recommend this product. Due to the base's characteristics, it may not have the best coverage or longevity, but it allows for an incredibly natural, bright skin expression without accentuating pores or feeling heavy. Purple and pink shades are useless - the green one is the best, folks. The toothpaste-like packaging makes it convenient to carry around. I often hear compliments on my skin and get asked about the skincare products I use.
ConsThe downsides are: low coverage, low longevity, and poor mask-wearing durability.
TipAfter applying this, you can use a more coverage-focused concealer or foundation in targeted areas, and finish with a brightening powder serum to minimize pores. It only takes a little time for the base to blend in and create a naturally radiant complexion.

Existing blemishes don't get worse, and for someone as sensitive to breakouts as me, that alone makes it usable. These days when I don't want to use cushion or foundation, this helps brighten my complexion just enough to make my face look radiant. It's also good that it doesn't rub off on my mask.
ConsWhile it does brighten my skin tone, the effect fades by lunchtime, and my original skin color returns. After work when I take off my mask, my face is quite oily, so the lasting power is quite disappointing.

ConsThe staying power is also not great, and the makeup doesn't look nice when it breaks down. But that's not the real issue. The skin gradually deteriorates. Redness and pimples appear here and there, like an allergic reaction, and the overall skin condition worsens. At least with products that react all at once, you can tell there's a problem, but with these, it's hard to even figure out what's wrong, which is even more frustrating.

The whitening effect also happens naturally, which is good.
ConsThere's not really any downside, but since it's a base, it does wear off quickly, so the staying power is a bit weak.

I've been using it for three bottles now, and it's also convenient to use as a substitute for sunscreen occasionally. In the photo, only the right side was applied, but it clearly shows a hydrated, creamy, and luminous skin expression.
ConsThe longevity is not easy to expect... since it gets absorbed, the bright skin tone doesn't last more than an hour... as it's a makeup base...
TipApplying it in the order of basic hydration > makeup base > sunscreen > concealer > foundation seemed to provide quite good longevity.

Personally, I think this product does a good job of correcting color compared to other color correcting products.
ConsI'm not sure if it's because I'm not used to it, but I don't think the adhesion is that great. In fact, when I apply foundation on top, it feels like it's sliding off. It also seems to reduce pore visibility and longevity. No matter what foundation I use (even Estée Lauder), it can't cover it up. The best thing is to not use this at all. Maybe because my skin is oily and has a lot of sebum, but I used it about 2 times and then gave up and just left it alone, and recently I just threw it away.

It has a lotion-like feel...? If you apply the right amount, it becomes natural-looking without making you look too pale.
ConsThe longevity is around 3 hours. It can also leave some stains, and if you don't apply it properly, it can look cakey. There's an unpleasant sticky feeling left on the hands after application.

The bright color of Vanilla Green provides good coverage for the redness, and I am satisfied with the tone-up effect. A small amount is sufficient, and I don't need to apply it multiple times.
ConsThere is noticeable exfoliation. The formula is similar to regular sunscreens, so when applied with the hands, the exfoliation is pushed out. When applied with a sponge, the exfoliation remains visible. The lasting power as a makeup base does not seem to be very long. I also felt a similar sensation of my face cracking when I used the Innisfree sunscreen, and this product gives a similar feeling. (The base line works well for me.)
TipIf you are concerned about exfoliation, it might be better to look for a different product.
