Pros
It seems to apply thinly and lightly. It mixes well with other products without any issues, and the color is pretty (it's a cool-toned pink base that works well for me). The ingredients also don't seem too bad.
Cons
- I'm not sure if it's because of this product or just fatigue, but I developed some inflammation after using it (will update later). - There's a bit of whiteheads/pore emphasis 😢 Even when mixing it with a BB cream, the area around my nose gets a bit white. - Leaves fingerprints easily, the fixing is fast but the marks also show up easily 😢 I usually use the Dr.Jart BB cream, but I switched to this foundation as it looked light and had good ingredients. I'm still on the fence about it.
Tip
For those with dry skin, it's best to have a good skincare routine or just skip this.

Pros
The cover effect was better than expected, and the tone-up resulted in a natural-looking bright complexion, which I liked.
Cons
There seemed to be a slight pore visibility around the nose area.

Pros
I purchased this foundation after hearing that the ingredients were good. The light freckles are covered to a certain degree. It was good that there was little darkening and breakdown. There are also many color options to choose from.
Cons
The semi-matte finish tends to look cakey the more you apply it. There is a feeling of it being pushed around when applied, and fuzz is accentuated. The matte feeling also leads to a slight tightness over time.

Pros
You can apply it with your hands, and your skin will look better right after application. However,
Cons
as time passes, it accentuates pores and flaky skin... There are acne scars near my nose, but my cheeks have relatively small pores and little flaky skin, yet when I apply this product, suddenly visible pores and flakiness appear on my cheeks. The name may say 'glow,' but for me, it's a dry and really expensive piece of junk... And the caking effect is no joke. Whenever it starts to clump up or cake, I just wipe it off with my fingers while looking in the mirror, and my skin actually looks cleaner that way (haha). What's even funnier is that my skin looks better when I remove the makeup (though it's not exactly great skin, to begin with...)

Pros
When first applied, it looks beautiful. It has a semi-matte finish, so it feels moisturizing, but it doesn't leave fingerprints or excessive transfer when touched. The ingredients are good, and it doesn't cause any breakouts. The cheek area without pores is expressed as soft and smooth~ At first, for about a month, the pores were emphasized, and I thought it was not worth the price, but after using it for a long time, it got better. I didn't have any breakouts either. The longevity is good, and as time passes, it gets slightly dewy in the afternoon, which is fine for me (it looked better in the winter for my combination skin). However, I felt that the sunscreen and base makeup compatibility is very important, so if you initially thought it was not great, try changing your sunscreen and base. I started with 2 stars, but as time went on, the rating went up to 4 stars. However, there are still some downsides. It's semi-matte, so it can be used comfortably throughout the seasons, but it looks more like a made-up look rather than a natural one. And there are quite a few times when the pores on my nose stand out, but that's probably due to my large pores. I used to like thin coverage, so I was at a maximum of 3.5 stars, but because of the good longevity and the way it applies like a made-up look, I'm giving it 4 stars. It seems my preferences have changed while using it.
Cons
The reddening is quite extreme... I think I'll have to switch to the Glow Bias or Siberia foundation from NARS, or try a different foundation with an ivory tone instead... ㅠㅠ ☆I'm currently using the Glow Bias, and it seems to not quite suit my cool-toned makeup, and it's a bit too yellow, but it's still better than Monblanc. It's better in terms of covering the redness that flares up on my face in the summer and the darkening. I'm using it somewhat satisfactorily, but the NARS shades seem a bit ambiguous to me. I want to try a clearer ivory tone, so I'm planning to switch to a different one next time. I'll have to look for one that doesn't cause any breakouts....
Tip
It pairs well with a dewy sunscreen. When used with a sunscreen with more oil, it emphasizes the pores. ++ Using a pore brush also improves pore coverage and longevity. Compared to a brush, a damp sponge allows for faster application, and using an unwatered sponge helps maintain the semi-matte finish and longevity. When it gets hotter, applying powder on the T-zone prevents it from breaking down almost entirely. In the winter, applying it with the Picasso Radiant Brush gives a glowy finish.

Pros
The color is vibrant and beautiful. I'm a 13-21 shade. The skin expression (on a good skin day) is also pretty.
Cons
The exaggeration of the flaky skin is severe and unattractive. It seems the longevity would not be good for oily skin types, unfortunately.

Pros
The spreadability is good, the color is nice, and there is no darkening. My original complexion is slightly on the fair side with a few freckles and blemishes, and I dislike heavy makeup that covers everything. This product covers naturally while applying smoothly and softly.
Cons
The price is definitely the most burdensome part. The next disappointing thing is that when applied on dry skin, it emphasizes flakiness. In the winter, my cheeks get so dry that they feel tight, and applying the product in that state doesn't seem to work well.
Tip
It's best to apply it with your hands. The spreadability is good, so when you spread it with your hands, it just glides across the face nicely. And be sure to shake it well before use. I forgot to shake it for about a week, and it settled, so the spreadability changed. It also seemed to cause some blemishes on my face.
