Pros
The coverage is great, so it would be good for those with problematic skin or areas they want to cover up. However, it needs to be applied thickly.
Cons
It doesn't seem to suit my oily and sensitive skin. Breakouts appeared right away...

Pros
It really seemed like I had found the foundation of my dreams - great adhesion, long-lasting, and it covered the texture of my skin perfectly. It adhered smoothly to my skin without any patchiness, and even as time passed, it didn't break down or get shiny. The glow it gave was just beautiful.
Cons
I was so happy when I thought I had found my holy grail foundation... but for some reason, unknown to me, after about a week of using it, my skin completely flipped. Even though I have oily skin, I rarely get blemishes or acne, but suddenly my cheeks were covered in whiteheads and cystic acne... It was so stressful and really knocked my self-esteem. I stopped using the foundation and started taking care of my skin, and it's slowly improving, but it's still a long way from getting back to my normal skin. I'm so disappointed....
Tip
Please be sure to test it out before purchasing...

Pros
The finish is natural and the skin expression is beautiful. It's not too matte and has a nice glow. Even when it breaks down, it doesn't get messy. But due to the oil, my nose and forehead area get a bit too shiny haha.
Cons
When I apply this, I get a pimple or two on my face. But that's different for everyone, so I wouldn't discourage anyone from trying it.

Pros
The 23rd shade is too dark, and the 21st shade is too bright, but the medium shade perfectly matches my skin tone.
Cons
I bought it two years ago and used it well, but when I repurchased it this time, my face broke out with terrible acne after using it for just two days.. I wonder if the formula has been changed during the renewal. It's not a cheap product, so I'm really disappointed..

The smooth skin expression and natural glow were so nice.

Pros
The YouTubers said the coverage wouldn't be good, but I was pleasantly surprised that the coverage was great. I'm satisfied with the natural skin expression. I bought the makeup*** foundation for 60,000 won, but this one seems better than that. I also tend to pay attention to the packaging design, and I like how Jeong Saem-mul pursues simple yet practical packaging designs and pouches. The design is pretty, and the contents are good.
Cons
There wasn't really anything bad. (Maybe because I didn't use the full-size product) When I used the sample, the application was good... But after a few hours, it started to tug on the dry, atopic parts of my skin, and the flakiness came up.
Tip
I mix it with a face oil before applying. Sunscreen is a must before that.

Pros
A cosmetic product that can achieve both coverage and dewy makeup in one go!
Cons
If you use this, you should be prepared for occasional breakouts or inflammatory acne... I apply it with a heavy heart on days when I have an important appointment. The coverage is so good that you'll keep using it, but when you remove your makeup, more than 90% of the time, stubborn acne and inflammatory acne will appear.

Pros
The coverage, adhesion, and longevity were all great. The 21 shade matched my skin tone well, but the medium shade was too yellow and dark for my skin tone, so it's important to carefully select the right color.
Cons
The color was nice and it worked well enough, but whenever I used it, it would cause pimples. As soon as I applied it, pimples would appear during the day, and by night there would be two or three hard pimples. That's why I ended up giving it to a friend who was considering buying it - it's a love-hate foundation.
Tip
If you just dab a small amount on your palette and apply it with a Missha (or any other brand) toothbrush brush, it really captures the skin expression. It doesn't look like you're wearing heavy makeup, but rather enhances your natural skin. If it didn't cause pimples, I would have also bought the light shade and used the medium as a contour.

Pros
The adhesion is good. It sticks to the skin with a nice feel. Using the wedge puff instead of the built-in puff works well together. After applying this, a subtle glow comes up after a while. In the summer, it might look a bit oily.
Cons
I encountered some downsides with this product. It was quite disappointing. 1. For my combination skin that gets oily in the summer, it's a bit too drying. After applying this, I can feel my face getting parched over time. 2. The color is too dark. I ordered the lightest shade (21), but it's still very dark. If you prefer a brighter look, you might not want to use this. 3. My skin has been getting worse over time. I don't usually get many pimples on my cheeks, but after switching to this, I started getting some blemishes there.
Tip
The built-in puff tends to absorb a lot of the foundation, so I'd recommend using a different puff. For dry skin types, you can mix this with a moisturizing cream from the palette for better results.

Pros
The coverage is great and the color is beautiful. I purchased the light color.
Cons
Ugh... I have combination skin, but after using this, I got pimples the next day. Just in case, I used it for 2 more days, but it left a lot of stinging pimples. I'm so annoyed that I don't use it anymore.
