Pros
It looks so natural, just like my own skin. No oiliness, great staying power, and it even breaks down beautifully. The coverage is also really good!
Cons
It might be too drying for those with dry skin types.
Tip
I think it looks the best when you dab it on with a damp sponge.

Pros
It works incredibly well even in winter (Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream) It looks like my skin is naturally good (but it's definitely not because my skin is originally good) Medium-to-high coverage of pores Medium-to-high coverage of pores Medium-to-high longevity Medium-to-high resistance to breakdown The ingredients are also good, and this foundation (along with the Dior Forever Ink) didn't cause my skin to peel or break out I have a very, very, very strong intention to repurchase, I've almost used it all up
Cons
It's more on the matte side than dewy It's hard to apply thinly with a sponge (in my case, I use a brush to spread it thinly and then use a sponge to press it in) The pearl color has a slightly orange base? So in winter it becomes naturally radiant, but in summer when I get a bit yellow, my face looks a bit uneven... The problem that arises when a yellow-toned person uses a pink-based foundation...
Tip
The foundation itself is for combination and oily skin types I bought it in Singapore when it was hot, and when I brought it back to Korea without mixing it, it caused some flaking, so mixing it with a cream made it better The foundation itself is really nice, so I wish dry-skinned people could use it this way too ㅠㅠ And if you're not the type to layer and layer makeup and use a brighter concealer to add dimension, then I think it's better for those with 22nd shade or lighter - the ones with less yellow tones are Snow (lighter than 20th), Pearl (21st, 22nd)

Pros
This is a troublesome oily skin type, but it's quite usable. The adhesion and lasting power are good, and the color is also pretty. By the way, if you're not using shade 23, those who usually use shades 21 or 22 will find the pearl color to be excellent. The other shades are either too bright or too yellow. I also tend to use around shade 22, and I was worried the pearl might be too bright, but it's just right.
Cons
If you're looking for an extremely high coverage, it's better to choose a double-wear foundation instead.
Tip
The combination with a beauty blender is just perfect.

Pros
For me, who couldn't settle on foundation or cushion and wandered around, I finally have a holy grail product. I used to just buy and try anything that had cheap or affordable ads claiming to suit my oily and troubled skin, only to be disappointed and throw them away. But with this product, there are so many good things that I don't know where to start. 1. Longevity: Of course, it's not that it doesn't budge at all. But it breaks down more naturally compared to any other foundations I've tried. When I add a setting powder, it lasts about 6 hours comfortably. I really love a flawless skin look, so on special occasions, I would carry the foundation with me and touch up after 6 hours - it would go back to its original state. 2. Coverage: I used to need a concealer to cover my blemishes, but I don't use it anymore since using this. True to its claim as a foundation for oily and troubled skin, it covers my acne scars perfectly. Just apply a thin layer and add another layer only to the areas that need more coverage. 3. Skin Finish: It's the best... There was a day when I had to work and only sleep 2 hours a night for 3 days, but no one could tell I was tired when I wore this foundation. A YouTuber said this foundation makes your skin look good on both good and bad skin days, and it's really true. 4. Ingredients: A YouTuber who analyzes ingredients said this is a good matte foundation, and for me who just used to use anything without caring about the ingredients, this foundation made me realize why ingredients are important. No matter what I used, I always felt my skin was stuffy, my pores were clogged, and I kept getting breakouts. But since using this, I haven't had a single breakout. My skin even seems to be getting smoother. I highly recommend this!
Cons
There are really no major downsides, but if I had to point out a couple: 1. It might be too matte for those with dry skin. 2. Even for those with oily or troubled skin, it's important to provide sufficient hydration in the skincare routine. I also make sure to do a thorough and ample skincare routine, even if not as extensive as the 7-skin method, before using this matte foundation. But this is something that anyone using a matte foundation should be doing, so it's not really a significant downside.
Tip
1. Application method: I've seen some foreign YouTubers using brushes or sponges to apply foundation, but I find all that too much of a hassle. Instead, I've stocked up on several cushion air puffs and just lightly apply the foundation with my hands first, then use the puff to spread it out evenly. In my experience, this is the most time-saving and effective way to get an even application. 2. Complementary setting powder: The Make Up For Ever UHD Pressed Powder! This foundation is already amazing on its own, but paired with this powder, the skin finish is unbeatable. Just be careful not to use too much - a light sweep with a brush is all you need, and it makes the look absolutely flawless.

Pros
I purchased it directly from Sephora in the US, including tax, for around $43, which is about 45,000 won. Adhesion: It's the best. There's no accentuation of flakiness and it doesn't peel off. The biggest advantage is that it looks just like my own skin!! Color: I purchased the pearl version. When you buy it in the US, the color selection is diverse, so you can find the perfect shade. I bought a slightly lighter tone. Coverage: To be honest, coverage is not that important to me, so I didn't have high expectations. But the coverage is good. There was a slight redness on my face, but it disappeared, and even some acne scars were gone. Longevity: I think longevity is the most important factor in a foundation. After using it for about 10 days, it didn't budge even in 42-degree weather... It's amazing. It starts to break down after about 12 hours, but the breakdown is soft and pretty, not an oily mess. This is the first time I've seen a foundation break down beautifully. Texture: I was using the Bourjois Serum Mix Foundation before, and I bought this one to get better longevity. The Bourjois is definitely more hydrating and glides on better. This one feels a bit thicker, but it's not a watery texture. It adheres to the face quickly! Packaging: The packaging is pretty. The pump part is plastic, but it's not really an issue. Conclusion: I wish Two Faced would be available in Korea.
Cons
The lid is plastic, and if I put it in the pouch, the lid sometimes opens. Then I get anxious that it might pump out, but that only happened a few times and hasn't happened since.
Tip
I've been using it for about a month now. Originally, it felt a bit thick, so I mixed it with the Bourjois to make it more hydrating. But in my hurry, I just quickly dotted on the Too Faced and went. My boyfriend noticed and said my skin looked beautifully pale, not cakey. Since then, I've only been using this.
