The shade itself is on the darker side, perfect for most men's skin tones!! It's not too light or muddy-looking! This foundation disappears from your skin over time without darkening, so you won't look like you're wearing a mask, and if you skip touch-ups, it fades naturally. The built-in concealer is convenient to use. The included cushion applicator is decent. I'm completely satisfied with it! The application is okay. Coverage is medium to high. The best part is that it matches my complexion perfectly without any darkening.
ConsPersonally, I'm not a fan of the small built-in concealer brush... I prefer applying with my fingers, and the brush quality isn't particularly great. I can't even find where I put it, haha. Anyway, while using it, I thought they might as well remove it and lower the price by a few dollars instead. If you apply too much skincare underneath, it can pill up like dead skin cells.
TipIf you keep your skincare routine relatively simple before applying, you can achieve a flawless complexion. All hail Sam Kim..

I used both a damp beauty blender and a Real Techniques sponge, and I was satisfied with both application methods.
ConsI'm not sure if the concealer that comes with it is all that great. It seems to make the base makeup pill rather than blend smoothly.

I was pleased that this product concealed them quite well. I was especially satisfied when I mixed it with the concealer on the side - it covered almost everything, making the marks nearly invisible. Adherence: - I was also satisfied with how well it adhered to my skin. It didn't slide off or look patchy, instead it clung well to my skin, making it look much better. Plus, depending on how you apply it, it even covered pores, which was an extra bonus. Application: - It felt nice on the skin and applied smoothly. Some reviews mentioned it being too yellow, but when I applied it, it wasn't as yellow or dark as I expected. It blended naturally with my skin tone, which I really liked. (I usually use shades 21-23. My skin is on the fair side, but it's more of a yellow-toned fair rather than pink-toned.) Sensitivity (my skin is acne-prone and sensitive): - Apart from breakouts due to my menstrual cycle or disrupted daily routine, I didn't experience any acne caused by this foundation. While I have dry skin, I prefer foundations that are slightly matte on the surface without causing deep dryness. In this aspect, this Jung Saem Mool foundation hit the spot! The reason I haven't repurchased yet is that I wanted to try other foundations. However, if I don't find another foundation that suits my skin, I'm considering going back to Jung Saem Mool.
ConsI was disappointed that the handle of the built-in puff broke too quickly. I switched to an Aritaum puff midway, and honestly, I was more satisfied with the Aritaum puff. Occasionally, when my skin condition was really poor, it would slightly pill. Especially when I had acne, it would sometimes flake off in those areas. (But I think this might happen with any cosmetic product, unfortunately.) No matter how good the adherence and coverage are, it's crucial to exfoliate regularly for even better results. Also, I found it a bit disappointing that it felt slightly heavy when layered multiple times. (However, this drawback was somewhat compensated by the fact that even a thin layer provided sufficient coverage.) Lastly, I was very disappointed with the small amount of concealer provided. Since they sell the concealer separately, I'm considering buying just the concealer again.

While it's not the absolute best, it covers acne scars well with an extra layer. It's a thicker foundation compared to others, so if you apply it with a good base, it can even cover uneven skin texture! I actually apply it without sunscreen underneath. I'm not sure if it causes blemishes to appear though.
ConsIn winter, it can be drying and cause some dead skin cells to appear, but not so much in summer. Strangely, when I apply sunscreen before this foundation, it breaks down quickly. And there's talk about it causing blemishes... I've tried it with various sunscreens, but the result is always the same! It's quite odd.
TipI never use the included puff. I use a beauty blender instead, which I find works much better.

It didn't cause any patchiness or flaking, which was fantastic!
ConsThere seems to be a slight issue with it breaking down throughout the day. It varies depending on my skin condition, but when I'm sleep-deprived or my skin isn't at its best, it tends to wear off a bit more easily.
TipFor those with very dry skin, try applying this after a hydrating moisturizer for that perfect, glowing complexion.

It has great coverage and makes your complexion look naturally flawless.
ConsAbsolutely not recommended for dry skin. As someone with very dry cheeks, I noticed it started to separate and caused deep dryness over time. After removing the makeup, my face became red, itchy, and I even developed some blemishes.

It's a real time-saver during busy mornings, reducing makeup application time significantly. With just a few touches, it evens out light freckles and complexion. For a foundation with such great coverage, it's surprisingly hydrating.
ConsUnfortunately, it tends to separate as time passes. It accentuates pores and settles into fine lines. By lunchtime at work (about 4-5 hours after application), you can notice emphasized pores and product settling into wrinkles. Even on days when I set it with powder, gently pressing with my fingers doesn't smooth out the creasing.
TipI found a solution: after applying the product, lightly set it with powder, then touch up using the same foundation. This technique helps minimize the appearance of pores and prevents settling into fine lines.

When you apply concealer first and then layer the foundation on top, those pesky blemishes disappear like magic. The staying power is also quite impressive! The puff applicator is fantastic - it's so soft and pleasant to use. And let's not forget about the case - it's got some serious style points!
ConsIt's extremely thick and difficult to spread. The concealer is a balm type, so it tends to collect dust as you use it. The foundation formula is also quite stiff. Plus, it's hard to control how much foundation comes out - a large amount dispenses at once, so you need to be very careful when pressing the pump. You have to apply significant pressure to the button to get the foundation out. The medium shade is much darker compared to other brands, even darker than their shade 23, and it has a reddish undertone. The packaging is quite bulky.
TipIf you have dry skin, you might want to give this one a pass.
