My skin is so sensitive that it turns red and breaks out in tiny blemishes at the slightest provocation. ⭐️Ingredients It definitely seems gentle. I've used it for a few days and haven't experienced any breakouts or reactions. It seems to be usable without irritating the skin. ⭐️Application When I first tried it, it was quite cold outside, so the product was almost frozen solid, making application difficult. However, after leaving it indoors for a day, its true texture came through. It applies smoothly for a stick product. It does mattify quickly though. It might be better suited for summer rather than winter use. It feels a bit drying on my skin, unfortunately. ⭐️Staying power It tends to separate easily, which is disappointing. Even though my skin is dry, it's not extremely so, yet the product still lifts easily. The poor staying power made it uncomfortable to use... I even tried applying it over a thorough skincare routine, but I don't think I'll be able to use it in winter. It might be okay for summer use. ⭐️Color The color is nice - not too light. I have fairly light skin, but I don't like products that go on too white, and shade 23 is too dark for me. I usually mix shades to match my complexion, but with this, I can achieve my desired skin tone using just this product. ⭐️Coverage The coverage seems quite low. It would be good for those with clear skin. I thought it might have more coverage being a stick foundation, but it applies quite thinly. It's not really suitable for thick application either, so you'll probably need to use a concealer with it. Overall, after trying it out, I think it would be good for those with clear skin who aren't too dry and want a light application. If you need more coverage, a separate concealer is a must. Since it dries out and separates quickly, it might be better for summer than winter use. There are also contouring shades available, which might work better for contouring purposes. However, it is quite pricey for its size.
ConsThe disappointing aspect is that it's too small. While the ingredients are good and it looks cute, the size is very small compared to the price, which is unfortunate. It seems like it won't last long. At 26,000 won, it's really mini-sized. I wish it was a bit more moisturizing. It's fine during application, but it dries out quickly, so if you have even slightly dry skin, it might not work for you.
TipYou really need to apply it very thinly over a thorough skincare routine. Especially for those with dry skin, it might be better not to use it in winter. It breaks down easily if you don't have a solid skincare base.

I love that this foundation works for both warm and cool tones. My skin is quite fair, so I usually go for the lightest shade 21, but even shade 2 in this stick foundation isn't too dark! Surprisingly, this stick foundation didn't cause any blemishes, which often happen when I switch cosmetics. That's a testament to how gentle it is, right? It does a great job covering the redness around my nose and the flushing I get in cold weather. Despite its good coverage, it doesn't feel heavy or sticky. Instead, it leaves a lightweight, matte finish.
ConsWhen you try to blend it after applying, it doesn't spread well and tends to clump and separate. It also emphasizes dead skin cells! Not recommended for dry skin - you need to apply a solid skincare base first. It's creamier than most stick foundations, which causes the product to get squished inside the tube when you apply it directly to your skin. The application isn't smooth, which is disappointing. Maybe the matte finish affects its smoothness? Also, not worth it for the price! The amount you get is very small compared to the cost. The actual product height is only about two finger-widths long.
TipTry applying the stick foundation with a cushion puff, patting it onto your skin. This prevents clumping! Make sure to apply a thorough skincare base first.
