I feel like I'll be using this forever! My mom started using it before applying her cushion foundation, and she says it's amazing - it really improves the longevity of her makeup. I bought it for her after hearing that! As for me, I don't use foundation, but I apply this product and then use concealer where needed. It's my holy grail - I can't do my makeup without it!
Cons
There are no downsides! The color is beautiful, the staying power is perfect, and I think this product and I will be together for life.

This is perfect for when you want to really brighten up your complexion! I mix it with my BB cream for my base makeup. It adheres well to the skin, and when set with powder, the staying power seems to last quite long.
Cons
It's quite drying when used alone, unfortunately. I definitely recommend mixing it with other products!

It does an amazing job at neutralizing even the slightest yellow undertones on my face. Plus, it beautifully brightens and evens out my complexion. I'm really impressed!
Cons
The staying power is a bit disappointing, and I think there might be some slight darkening of the skin over time.

It really helps neutralize yellow undertones and creates a truly flawless complexion.
Cons
It's quite drying. When I applied it with a puff, it clumped up due to how dry it is. Such a shame!

This product truly lives up to its 'Pale' name, effectively serving as a color-correcting base. It definitively evens out the complexion in ways that foundation alone can't manage, making your skin look naturally bright as if you were born with a radiant complexion! By beautifully evening the skin tone, it makes any color cosmetics applied on top look stunning. For two years now, it's become my pre-makeup essential. I apply it with a spatula, and even when I layer foundation over it, there's no pilling - instead, it helps the foundation adhere better! Starting with this base elevates the overall finish of my makeup. It's also perfect (times 100!) for a foundation-free look. You can even mix it with darker foundations you might have lying around unused at home, giving new life to those neglected products. It's a true savior for those buried-in-the-drawer foundations! Even when applied by gently patting with your fingers, it absorbs beautifully into the skin. I was so satisfied with my first purchase that I bought another one. Just looking at it in my collection makes me feel accomplished! - Pale Blue Lavender shade: I use this for cool-toned makeup looks or when my skin appears a bit tanned. It neutralizes any yellowness in the skin, making it perfect for layering cool-toned color cosmetics. The unique blue + lavender color creates an enchanting effect on the skin.
Cons
Unfortunately, the SPF is quite low, so you'll need to apply a separate sunscreen. Also, the price point is a bit steep.

The color was pretty, but the drawbacks were so significant that I returned it. I appreciate that Olive Young promptly accepts returns if any skin issues arise.
Cons
1. Skin redness and irritation 2. Despite having dry skin and thoroughly hydrating with a solid skincare routine, it still flaked off like dead skin cells

As someone with cool undertones and yellowish skin, I found this brightening moisturizer really effective at evening out my complexion. The texture was smooth and not at all dry, applying nicely without any patchiness. I was pleased that it didn't leave my skin feeling dehydrated after use.
Cons
I'd seen many reviews mentioning blemishes and small bumps, but I thought, 'Surely it won't happen to me?' Well, I was in for a rude awakening. Using this product alone led to an all-out war on my face - blemishes and tiny bumps everywhere! What ingredient could be causing this? It was so stressful that I stopped using it for a while, and thankfully my skin cleared up.

I've been using this holy grail product for over a year now!! I'm already on my third bottle. The pros and cons are so distinct that it might be a love-it-or-hate-it situation for some. The biggest advantage is that it truly brightens your complexion! It also has decent staying power, and you can mix it with other foundations for a natural brightening effect.
Cons
The most significant drawbacks are its drying effect and thick consistency. If you don't prep your skin thoroughly, your makeup can look patchy. You need to be careful to apply only a small amount and blend well to avoid clumping.
Tip
This product can be tricky - it can look patchy whether you skimp on skincare or mix it with too much. I recommend letting your skincare absorb fully, then applying a tiny amount with your fingers and blending with a puff. If you master the technique, it's irreplaceable. It's truly amazing when used correctly.

The yellow undertone is well covered and the spreadability is not bad. Alone, it's honestly a bit iffy (I don't really like such a matte finish, even though it's long-lasting). I bought the Peach & Lily Glow Bubble Tint because people said it's a holy grail product, and using it together is better. But when mixed, it's not as good...
Cons
The issue is that using this causes my skin to become red and irritated. I get breakouts...
Tip
I'd only recommend it for mixing purposes.. Sensitive types don't really need it. Just mix it with your foundation.

Makeup enthusiasts who use a makeup base as an essential product have tried this and found it to be good, with a lovely color.
Cons
If you don't control the fermentation properly, it will turn pale and dry. For oily skin, it will finish with a smooth and soft texture, so it will look pretty.
Tip
You can mix it into your foundation as well.
