ProsAmong all the products I've tried, this one seems to have the absolute best coverage.
ConsI couldn't really find any downsides, but for those who carry it horizontally in their bag, be aware that it might leak when opening and closing the lid. You'll need to wipe it with a tissue each time.

ProsI've been using this for years to cover my dark circles, and it works great! Not sure how long I've been using it, but recently it's been hard to find online. I'm starting to worry it might be discontinued... hopefully not! The price has gone up too. My skin is sensitive and thin, but I've never had any blemishes or redness while using this. I looked into the ingredients, and although they're not particularly gentle, it seems to suit me well. I've tried many high-end concealers, but this one works the best for me in terms of coverage. It doesn't feel like a thin layer; it's a bit thicker, sets quickly, and leaves a matte finish!
ConsThese days, it seems like it might be getting discontinued as the price keeps going up. In the past, you could easily find it online at regular price or on sale, but now it's becoming rare to find.

ProsSkin type: Dry
Coverage: Medium to high. It effectively covers areas that your base makeup couldn't. I use shade 21, and 1.25 tone is just right for me.
Adherence: For best results, apply a thin layer, let it absorb lightly, wait a bit, then reapply. This method ensures good adherence. Avoid applying multiple layers at once, as it can cause clumping and reduce adherence. Never try to absorb multiple layers immediately!
Blemishes: None so far. I've been using it without any skin issues.
ConsIt can feel a bit drying, especially when your skin isn't in its best condition. As time passes, I noticed a slight darkening effect.
TipWarning: Never apply multiple layers at once. After the initial application, lightly cover any visible edges with your usual cushion or foundation base. This technique ensures a seamless, natural-looking coverage without any noticeable lines.

ProsIt's pretty decent. For shade 21, it works well as a concealer for brightening areas.
ConsThe price is good, and everything else is fine too. I can't really think of any drawbacks. It's just a standard, reliable product.

ProsThe coverage was decent enough. The shade seemed to suit those with a 22 complexion.
ConsWhen first applied, it looks like a 20-21 shade, but after it sets, it darkens. I'd recommend this for those with a 22 complexion.

ProsIt matches my complexion well and has great coverage. It even helps conceal dark circles when set properly.
ConsIt can look a bit cakey if applied directly, so I recommend using a brush instead of your fingertips for a thin, even application. Personally, I feel it might darken the skin slightly.

ProsCovers really well and blends seamlessly with foundation, no mismatch at all!
ConsHonestly, there's nothing to complain about! Even the small size available at Daiso is great.
TipIt works best when you apply a bit of concealer with your fingers and pat it on after foundation for excellent coverage.

ProsReviewer's skin type: Combination dehydrated, prone to redness, lots of blemishes and scars, no dermatologist treatment
🔥Overall Review
Highly recommended if you're looking for a concealer with good coverage that's not extremely matte👍👍
However, if you're prone to blemishes and don't prep your skin thoroughly, it won't look as nice..!
To increase coverage, apply the concealer tip 'flat' on areas you want to cover and gently pat it in:)
(Dotting it on doesn't cover as well)
🍀Shade
I usually use shades 21-22. (21: slightly light, 22: slightly dark)
So I tried two shades from The Saem: 01 (Clear Beige) and 1.25 (Light Beige)!
>01 is light for me, so I use it for highlighting
>1.25 is perfect as a base
🍀Texture
It's moisturizing but not overly so... somewhere between matte and dewy!
For my combination dehydrated skin, how it looks depends on my skincare prep
(I sometimes use only concealer as base makeup)
🍀After thorough skincare
I have combination dehydrated skin, so I usually do light layers of skincare
On days when I've prepped well, this concealer gives a beautiful glow as a base✨
'Firm, high coverage, doesn't break down easily' - This is why I started using The Saem concealer as my base
But since I have combination dehydrated skin, powder is a must afterwards
🍀Coverage
I've never seen a non-matte concealer with this level of coverage!!
I have very dark circles and deep under-eye wrinkles, but I was very satisfied with how it covered them😊
The coverage alone makes me come back to this product after trying others
🍀Darkening
I've never felt like it darkened on me!!! However, on a day when I was out for over 15 hours without touch-ups, it did seem to darken a bit as the makeup broke down
🍀Value for money
It's often on sale and the original price is already reasonable, so I'm extremely satisfied with the value for money
🍀Scent
There's no particular scent, so I think anyone can use it without issue
Cons💦When not prepping skin thoroughly ❌
As I have combination dehydrated skin prone to deep dryness, if I don't prep well before using the concealer, it emphasizes dead skin cells
‼Especially‼ on active blemishes... It's okay on acne scars, but on active pimples or spots, it makes the surrounding dead skin cells very noticeable and doesn't cover well
So I can't use it on busy days. It's not a concealer that looks good with minimal effort😥
