It controls oil without over-drying the skin, and applies in an incredibly thin, transparent layer.
ConsThe price is quite steep. The case tends to get dirty with use. If you're looking for extreme oil control like with Mehron, this might not be enough. Not recommended for very oily skin.

There's a subtle pearlescent effect that looks even prettier in sunlight. As someone with dry skin, I can't use powders that absorb too much oil, but this compact doesn't make my skin feel overly dry, doesn't cake, and allows for a smooth complexion. Oh, and it provides medium to high coverage for pores too.
ConsI might be sensitive to phenoxyethanol because about 30 minutes after applying this, my skin started to itch gradually. By the time I left work, I had red patches in various areas. Before using this, I used MEFŌ and had the same symptoms, so I put it away and bought NARS. The common ingredient in both products is phenoxyethanol. I spent too much money just to find out my skin is sensitive to phenoxyethanol...
TipEven a quick application with the included puff creates a beautiful finish. It doesn't transfer easily, so you need to blend it well.

I usually layer on a lot of moisture, so I need a powder to set it. This one is perfect - it's so subtle you can barely tell it's there, which I love. It doesn't dry out my skin if I don't overdo it, and it applies so finely with just the right amount of hydration. It's absolutely perfect when I just touch it on my under-eyes, chin, and cheeks! This has seriously become my holy grail product!
ConsThe puff it comes with is a bit disappointing, but it doesn't really matter since I apply it with a brush anyway!
TipPro tip: After applying cushion foundation, just lightly touch this on your chin and under-eyes for a flawless finish.

It doesn't absorb oil to the point of drying out your skin or causing your makeup to crack. Instead, it controls just the right amount of oil, leaving your skin feeling soft and matte. I've gone through two containers - it lasts a long time and comes in a truly beast-sized quantity!
ConsAfter the product was reformulated, it now includes a puff that looks like a scrap of paper. I absolutely don't use it - it's really not meant to be used. Instead, I just sweep the product on with the other side of the puff after finishing my makeup. When I'm going out, I sometimes touch up using the Blotterazzi from BeautyBlender.

I always press this on after using cushion foundation. It enhances longevity and prevents hair from sticking to my face. As someone whose nose tends to get oily over time, I often pat it on my nose bridge with my fingers, even without blotting paper. Being pressed powder, it's surprisingly generous in quantity and sturdy - I've dropped it over ten times, and it's still intact! Its slim design makes it perfect for on-the-go touch-ups.
ConsWhile it's less drying compared to other powders I've tried, it can still feel dry if you haven't properly exfoliated or moisturized. There's no visible shimmer... If you're expecting a glow, look elsewhere. The matte case always looks dirty. I tossed the included puff after using it twice. Now I just use a brush to lightly apply it where needed. Being a pressed powder, oil can sometimes build up on the surface.
TipWhen the product hardens due to oil buildup and won't come off, press scotch tape firmly onto the surface and peel it off two or three times. This will make it like new again. As my skin is dry except for the T-zone, I use a brush to lightly touch and pat only where needed.

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsThe main reason I bought this was to prevent my makeup from melting off due to oily skin, and I was amazed that it kept my makeup intact for about half a day. Your makeup doesn't break down easily. If you apply too much, it might make your skin look dry, but surprisingly, it doesn't actually feel dry. It's quite fascinating!
ConsOn the third day of using this, my previously good skin became covered in tiny, millet-like blemishes. I tried applying it for a few more days just in case, but it only got worse. I'd love to use it if it didn't cause these breakouts, but I can't figure out which ingredient is making my skin react this way.
TipWhen I apply it thoroughly during my morning makeup routine, it maintains that state for about half a day.

It's the ultimate for setting makeup and controlling shine. The best part? It doesn't dry out my skin at all. And having a mirror in the compact? Absolutely brilliant!

It really makes my face look brighter! Lately, my complexion has been looking dull and my makeup hasn't been staying on well, but since I've found this gem, my face looks so radiant. I'm thrilled! It's not drying at all, and I absolutely love it.
ConsThe case gets smudged with fingerprints easily, making it look messy. It's also hard to clean. I wish they would include a small pouch like they used to.
TipWhatever you do, don't throw away the plastic film inside! The mirror looks sleek and beautiful, but without the film, it can get dirty easily.

I didn't experience any dryness throughout the day. I was worried when I saw shimmer at home, thinking I made a mistake, but it's barely noticeable when applied! I mainly bought this to prevent my bangs from getting greasy, and it keeps my forehead matte all day without drying it out. It's great for those who want to control oil naturally while combating dryness.
ConsThere's a bit of excess powder when applying. If you're looking for a product with noticeable shimmer, you might want to consider other options as the effect is minimal here. Also, the signature NARS case material... it gets dirty in no time, unfortunately.
