It brightens my complexion more than other products, even though I already have fair skin. 2. It's hydrating, which is great for deep dryness and dry skin. 3. No darkening effect. It's perfect for winter use, and I'll definitely reach for it again when the cold season comes!
ConsDue to its moisturizing properties, it can transfer onto masks, but this improves slightly over time. However, it doesn't cause makeup to break down!
TipThis is excellent for those with dry or combination dehydrated skin. For an enhanced Inner Glow effect, apply a mist to hydrate your skin before using this product. I highly recommend it, especially for those cold winter days!

Let me give you my honest thoughts on it. 😊 ✨Skin type: Combination dehydrated skin/Sensitive/Shade 22 ✨Adherence: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Pros: The Centifolia Foundation has a slightly runny texture, so I expected it to apply very thinly. True to my expectations, it adhered to my skin beautifully because of how thin the layer was! Cons: However, I deducted one star because the runny texture made it transfer easily when it touched my phone or hands, which was a bit disappointing. Even after applying 1.5 layers and setting with powder, it still transferred, which was a letdown. ✨Longevity: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Pros: I was pleasantly surprised by how long-lasting it was. Despite the transfer issues, if you look at the 3rd and 4th photos below, they were taken after 8+ hours of wear. Granted, I was mostly at home due to COVID and didn't do much physical activity, but I was still very satisfied. The way it faded was also very clean. With other foundations, my nose would often look too light, requiring touch-ups, but with this one, it just faded evenly, looking clean without any noticeable breakdown. Cons: When wearing a mask, the foundation did inevitably smudge onto it. But this is an issue with pretty much all foundations and color cosmetics, so it can't be helped! ✨Coverage: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Compared to products focused on high coverage, this foundation's thin application means it doesn't offer much coverage. The first photo shows my bare skin with some blemishes, and the second shows 1.5 layers of foundation. It doesn't magically cover everything, but it should be good for those who don't prioritize heavy coverage. I found that applying a thin layer of this foundation and then using concealer worked well! Overall, I was very satisfied with this product!
ConsThe only downside was the significant transfer issue. While it was a bit annoying, the foundation doesn't cake up when you touch it up, so it's still workable if you don't mind doing some touch-ups throughout the day.
TipI found that applying a thin layer of brightening moisturizer with a slight white cast before using this product helped maintain a radiant complexion without darkening for longer.

Except for my nose and forehead, my skin is dry, especially around my mouth and chin area which are the driest. To start, I absolutely loved the foundation's texture. It has a rich, creamy consistency that adheres amazingly well to the skin. The application is also fantastic - it works well with a brush and is easily applied with a puff too. I'd say this is probably the foundation's biggest selling point. Next, let's talk about coverage. On days when I had blemishes flaring up, this foundation provided sufficient coverage even without concealer, which was great. It felt like a semi-matte finish, but still maintained enough hydration to be suitable for anyone who doesn't have extremely dry skin. Given the current situation, it's important to consider how much it transfers onto masks. Honestly, there was some transfer, but considering the level of coverage and the rich texture of this foundation, I think it's within an acceptable range.
ConsThe most disappointing aspect is probably the limited range of shades. The shade 21 felt slightly yellow, which might be disappointing for those looking for a pink undertone. Also, the fact that there's some transfer is a bit of a letdown.

Cons- Slight darkening effect on dark circles - The foundation itself feels a bit heavy, and skin feels slightly suffocated after application - Coverage of redness around the nose is a bit lacking, but still better than other foundations - Skin felt dry after about 4 hours, and there was slight pilling - Doesn't dry down even after time passes, keeps transferring onto hands, doesn't feel powdery
Tip- If it performs this well with a cheap puff, using a good quality puff would likely improve coverage and longevity - Since it doesn't become powdery over time, definitely use a setting powder
