  Pros

  ✔ Prettier than expected ✔ Decent lasting power ✔ More convenient hygiene management ✔ Easy to cleanse Hated the oily look + liquid foundation brush hygiene management was too troublesome + hassle to remove = led me to purchase powder foundation... Even though summer has passed, my face still keeps producing oil as I age, even in the fall... I tested it at the department store and bought it, but my skin was quite tanned in the summer, and when I said I prefer a natural look, they recommended Y225. Normally, I use Double Wear Warm Vanilla in the summer, Espoir Petal Y in the transitional seasons, and mix Double Wear Porcelain and Coolvain in the winter... I actually like to mix and match different products, so I can't really say exactly what shade I am, but I'd say I'm around a 23 and prefer a natural makeup look. I use it for my overall face makeup, and it seems to pair well with the watery foundation as well.

  Cons

  ✖ Disappointed by the pore breakdown ✖ Dryness This may not apply to many, but my pores are really large and oily... So this part of the breakdown was not great for me. I'll need to remove and correct this. While this doesn't apply to me, those with dry skin may find it quite drying if you don't have a good skincare routine ㅠㅠ I also make sure to have a solid skincare routine on the days I use this.

  Tip

  The puff applies the coverage quite thickly, so it's best to do the overall makeup with a dense brush and just dab the puff on areas that need more coverage.

  Pros

  Wow, it's amazing, isn't it? I thought the powder would really show my pores, but it covers them better than I expected!! Of course, it can't completely fill in my deeper acne scars - for that I need a primer, which is the same for liquid foundation too. It's easy to just swipe it on and go, which is convenient. The dermatologist recommended powder foundation, so I tried it out and it seems pretty good. The ingredients definitely feel more simple and lightweight.

  Cons

  The price is a bit high - the refill alone is around 35,000 to 40,000 won, and the initial case is 46,000 won. When I applied the powder with the sponge, it did seem to emphasize flaky skin a bit, so it's best to moisturize well beforehand and not rub too hard. It does feel a bit drying, but I'll have to see how it wears. And it doesn't completely blur my large pores like magic - it might work better for those with smaller pores. The sponge that comes with it is overpriced and double-sided, without a handle, so it could get dirty easily. The color also looks a bit powdery and can look whitish if you apply too much. I might have been better off getting a slightly darker shade. The coverage isn't as amazing as my previous foundation, but I'll have to test the longevity more.
