I get one big inflamed pimple about once a week. Skin type: Combination dehydrated skin - very oily, but with deep dryness that prevents me from using matte foundations. Even in summer, I can only use semi-matte at most. Trying this Giverny foundation was like discovering a whole new world. I'm meticulous with my skincare routine. In the mornings, I pat in toner and serum by hand, then apply a soothing emulsion and hydrating sunscreen with a puff. Finally, I lightly brush on the foundation and pat it in. The result? Flawless makeup that looks like it was made for my skin. It provides decent coverage for acne, though it doesn't completely conceal everything. But I prefer a more natural look, so that's fine by me. However, it doesn't cover darker spots as well. The adherence is absolutely top-notch. Even after being out all day, there's minimal flaking or separation. Sometimes, as it mixes slightly with my natural oils, it even looks more beautiful as the day goes on.
ConsDarkening... sigh. Usually, my face looks fine when I'm alone, but next to others, it appears dull and slightly yellow. My skin naturally has yellow undertones, but maybe because I apply it too thinly, after a while, the beautiful ivory tone fades and it looks a bit lackluster... Oil build-up over time... After a while, my forehead, T-zone, and sides of my nose become super shiny.
TipRecommended skin tone: 22 shade Recommended skin type: Combination dehydrated, Dry For those with dehydrated or dry skin, make sure to prep your skin well before applying! But be careful not to overdo it, as too much skincare can cause the foundation to pill. When applying skincare, use a disposable puff. For the foundation, I personally find that a brush works better than a spatula for a flawless finish. I use a MAC foundation brush, which is similar to the Giverny foundation brush!

Doesn't leave any blemishes behind.
ConsAfter a few hours, due to excess oil production, it tends to separate from the skin.

It adhered well and I didn't notice any darkening. The color is beautiful, giving a radiant look! While the coverage isn't extremely high, it can cover minor blemishes with multiple thin layers.
ConsIt tends to settle a bit around the sides of the nose. For those with oily skin, it might lead to excess oil production if used during summer.

This leads to constant reapplication, but it's worth it since Olive Young gives you a mini cushion as a gratis. After skincare, it applies so smoothly and feels incredibly moisturizing! I have quite a few freckles, but the coverage is pretty decent. Super hydrating!!! It'll be perfect for winter wear
ConsNot recommended for summer as it's extremely moisturizing and likely to melt off in the heat. Slight oiliness develops over time. While the coverage is good, it doesn't completely conceal everything
TipIt's so soft that I mix it with tint to use as a blush. The texture is truly velvety smooth!

At first, it seems to apply smoothly without clumping.
ConsRecently, my blemishes had calmed down while using a different foundation, but after just one day of using this, all my blemishes resurfaced. I didn't realize it before when I was constantly breaking out, but it must have been because of this product. As time passes, it becomes very oily and dull. It also breaks down messily, making touch-ups absolutely necessary.

ConsIt can feel a bit rich and might pill if you don't set it with powder
TipSince this product is on the richer side, setting it with powder can improve its longevity and give a cleaner finish. I recommend using powder for best results!

I like how it goes on in a thin layer.
ConsIt might be due to my skin type, but when I use this product alone, my skin tends to get oily.
TipIf you spray on a makeup fixer after application, it improves longevity and prevents oiliness.

It gives a lovely glow too, which I really like!
ConsAfter some time, it tends to get a bit oily. While it's slightly disappointing that it becomes a bit rich, it still breaks down beautifully on the skin.
TipUsing a spatula gives a gorgeous skin finish. Also, mixing it with an ampoule and applying creates an amazing Inner Glow, so good!
