Pros
It looks so natural and natural when applied correctly, and it doesn't crumble messily when it breaks down. I've been using Makeup Forever foundation all this time, but Too Faced is just as good.
Cons
The foundation color is a bit yellow and not as bright as my skin tone, so it's too natural. I think I should have chosen a brighter shade, but I made the wrong choice. It's also a bit matte, so I have to dab it on to avoid accentuating dry patches. It wears off quickly on my nose, so I'm using a primer.
Tip
I mix it with a slightly dewy cream and dab it on with a sponge.

Pros
I have acne-prone and sensitive skin, but the coverage was good and I liked it. The shade was just right at 21.
Cons
It can be a bit matte in the winter, but you can mix it with a moisturizer to use it.

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
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.
