I've been using the Estée Lauder Double Wear all this time, but switching to this, it definitely feels thinner and more hydrating. I think I'm going to switch to this holy grail foundation.
ConsCompared to Estée Lauder, the staying power is a bit lacking, and I do notice some breakdown (I've been using the Urban Decay Setting Spray and Laura Mercier Loose Powder with it too, and when I used the Double Wear, with those, I didn't need to touch up at all for 12 hours).

While searching frantically, I found this foundation. Among foundations, this one is relatively good in terms of ingredients, so I bought it with confidence. It was less stuffy than Double Wear and had a better application. If your skin condition is not good, Double Wear can sometimes look cakey, but this one adheres naturally to the skin. It covers small blemishes, acne scars, and pores evenly without making them noticeable. As time passes, a slight oiliness appears, but the makeup does not come off or look unnatural; instead, it gives a healthy glow to the skin. Even for my oily skin with a lot to cover, there were no issues using Double Wear. Double Wear is the best, but if you want natural coverage without getting troubled or stuffy like with Double Wear, this one seems to be a good option.
ConsIt's inconvenient that I couldn't test the color before ordering it directly. After receiving it a week later, the color is really... off. I carefully researched blogs and YouTube videos to choose the pearl shade, but even the 21 shade is too dark for my skin tone. I mixed the foundation with the Revlon Whipped Cream foundation in Ivory, and it's the second lightest shade, but it still looks too yellow. As time passes, it seems to darken and make my skin look dull and sickly. I'm not sure if it's my skin tone or the foundation that's the problem. I'll have to either mix it with a lighter foundation or purchase an additional snow shade.
TipThere's no particular tip, but after scouring YouTube videos, it seems using a sponge applicator rather than a brush provides better adherence and coverage. I applied the Innisfree green tea skin, Laneige water bank essence, and Sidmool moisture cream, and only used the Benefit pore primer on my nose before applying the foundation. After 5 hours, I don't feel stuffy or dry. In the photo, the left side is the Cushion Wear Pearl and the right is the Double Wear Nude. The Cushion Wear appears more reddish in reality than in the photo, but once applied, it ends up looking more yellow than the Double Wear Nude. This may vary by individual skin, but it's worth noting. Thorough cleansing is also important. Even with diligent cleansing, it was difficult to remove the highly adherent Double Wear, which led to skin irritation and breakouts. This foundation also has good adherence, so careful cleansing is necessary.

ConsWhile the color range is diverse, there is no color that matches my skin tone of 21. Snow is too white, and the next color, Pearl, has a pinkish tone despite being too pale for me, causing me to often hear comments about looking sallow. - Although the blog reviews say it applies beautifully, as a person with combination skin that is oily around the T-zone and cheeks, I didn't like how it breaks down. - If the color doesn't match, I recommend mixing it with another foundation or using it as a base under contouring or baking makeup.
TipAfter applying it all over the face, using a brightening concealer on the apples of the cheeks and T-zone can create a dimensional look and help avoid a sallow complexion.
