Absorbs: Personally, I love how it applies like paint, adhering perfectly to the skin. That's why I'm a fan of this foundation.
ConsColor payoff: The shade seems more yellow than I expected. I've used it before. Matte finish: It's extremely matte. Difficult to use in winter... I think I used it well without pilling about 3 years ago, but now it seems my skin lacks oil, so it pills too much.
TipIf you apply it after thorough skincare, it's the best foundation out there.

The reason I keep repurchasing? The unbelievable staying power... While I didn't notice it much when I had oily skin, I think this product really shines for combination skin types. I used to use the Cool Vanilla shade, but wanting to save some money, I looked for an unopened new product on a secondhand market. They didn't have Cool Vanilla, so I went with Fawn as a quick fix. Surprisingly, it wasn't too dark and matched perfectly. I think it would work well for anyone who uses shade 21. Staying power: This product is an absolute champion in longevity. It simply doesn't break down. Even after 24 hours, it's no joke - it seems to blend with your natural oils, creating a beautiful glow. To be honest, I started my foundation journey with Estée Lauder Double Wear, so I haven't tried many other liquid foundations besides cushions. Coverage: I actually apply it very thinly with a spatula, so I don't build up heavy coverage. But thinking back to when I didn't have a spatula, the coverage is truly superior. It covers most blemishes well, though it can be challenging to conceal acne scars and textured areas.
ConsIt's quite matte. You need to prep your skin carefully, but piling on too much skincare can lead to pilling. It might be too much for dry skin types, and even in this cold weather, you need a solid skincare base. Apply thinly with a spatula, and it can work for combination-dehydrated skin. The downside is that it can be tiring and time-consuming to apply multiple thin layers with a spatula, so unless I have something important, I tend not to use this product much in winter.
TipRather than applying it haphazardly, it's best to use a spatula and apply multiple thin layers. People use various methods - some prefer puffs, others brushes. The brush type that was really popular before, like The Cool Lab brush, works amazingly well with this foundation. It fills in all the pores and makes application super easy. Unfortunately, I've lost that brush and can't use it at the moment.

While it might be a bit drying if used alone and could make makeup look patchy, when paired with an organic UV protection sunscreen (since this has a low SPF), it makes your skin look amazing! After about 7-8 hours, you might notice some oil coming through, but there's no breakdown or clumping of the product. The oil just gives a subtle glow-like effect. I'm not sure about the coverage though!
ConsIt has a matte finish, so you need to blend it quickly on your face. The color is a bit yellowish.

I've used over three bottles myself! The coverage and staying power are so good that if you're looking for flawless makeup, you'll be hooked. 1. Coverage: It's like a thin layer of paint - the coverage is unbeatable. You'll understand why so many can't give up on this foundation despite its challenges. It covers everything like a concealer with just one swipe. 2. Longevity: The staying power is top-notch. It's impossible for this formula to break down. It fixes quickly to your skin, feeling like it's adhered to your face! 3. Texture: No matter how well you prep your skin, it's hard to handle the matte, tightly-fixed feeling. I always mix it with a small amount of a more hydrating foundation. It's great for summer use on its own, but I haven't found my perfect shade in Double Wear yet, so I mix it with another product for the right color match. 4. Tool recommendation: I've tried brushes, sponges, and fingers, but personally, I find using a spatula gives the thinnest, best application.
ConsIt sets too quickly and has a matte formula, so if you don't prep your skin properly, it can look cakey and patchy.
TipThis shade has strong yellow undertones, so mixing with a small amount of a pink-toned foundation makes the color more flattering. Mixing with a pink and hydrating foundation helps balance the matte finish and creates a brighter complexion.

While suitable for all skin types, it's particularly satisfying for those who prefer foundations that aren't overly rich. The texture is so matte that it might feel a bit stiff when first applied. This allows it to adhere instantly to the skin, preventing any patchiness. Another plus is its nearly fragrance-free formula. Since artificial scents are inevitable in cosmetics - it's impossible to use only natural fragrances - this product is practically unscented unless you're extremely sensitive to smells. I was pleased with this, as it suggests fewer artificial preservatives. While many brands have their signature scents, which may smell nice during application, you're essentially applying fragrance preservatives to your face. As someone who prefers unscented products, I found this aspect particularly appealing.
ConsAs mentioned earlier, the texture is quite matte. This might be uncomfortable for those who prefer smoother formulations. Also, compared to softer textures, this product may accentuate pores slightly. I have large pores, so I do notice some emphasis on them. However, it's not to the extent of being overly noticeable, so even those concerned about pores can still use this product.
TipIf you apply this product after generously moisturizing or using a hydrating sunscreen, it feels more smooth than matte. If you find the matte texture uncomfortable after trying it, using it this way should eliminate any discomfort.
