Gel Foundation S [SPF25/PA++] [101]

Doesn't Sit on Skin

Feels Comfortable

Absorbs Well

Hydrating

 The expensive price is concerning, as the puff may need to be replaced after just a few uses. I'm also slightly worried that a regular puff may not fit as well.

 The gel foundation was quite curious to me, but since the formula is contained in a mesh net, it was easy to use with a similar feel to a cushion compact. Instead of a cushion puff, it has an NBR sponge-like puff that fits better.

Pressing firmly with the puff and applying it to the face feels incredibly moisturizing. It's like applying a moisture essence. So it blends in thinly and evenly without sitting on top of the skin. 

I intentionally took the skin photos using the basic camera on the Galaxy S23 without any editing apps... As you can see, my pores are quite large, and I have a lot of redness around my nose and cheeks. But this foundation covers those areas quite naturally! It doesn't provide the same flawless coverage as a full-coverage foundation, but for a lightweight product, the coverage is quite good. (There are many moisturizing cushions with little coverage, but this has much better coverage than those.) The fine, smooth texture applies delicately without caking or creasing.

After applying all over, it leaves a natural, dewy glow. It doesn't feel like a full-coverage makeup look, but rather like my skin but better - like I have naturally good skin. Those with a lot of discoloration or spots that need heavy coverage may want to use a concealer as well. For light outings, this natural yet somewhat covering skin look is just right for me, better than just wearing a tinted moisturizer.

I thought the dewy formula might not have great longevity compared to matte formulas, but after 5-6 hours, only the T-zone area starts to wear off a bit. But overall, it doesn't break down messily. Just a quick touch-up in the T-zone is enough, and it layers well without getting cakey.

The packaging is long horizontally but thin, so it fits well even in a narrow mini bag. Reapplying also feels slightly cooling and moisturizing, which is nice.
In the summer, I'll use this as a lightweight, single-layer foundation...
In the fall and winter, Using this foundation together with a concealer would provide even better coverage, while still allowing you to enjoy the moisturizing finish.

The downside is... it's thin but spreads wide.ㅋ It would be nice if there was a puff refill.

I remember the sk2 essence cushion.
It doesn't apply thickly at all, but spreads thinly. It has good adhesion to the skin and there is no clogging of pores around the nose.
There's no heavy, sticky feeling.
When I apply the 21 shade, many people say my face looks bright and glowing. This foundation matches my skin tone around 21-22 perfectly, so people may say 'Weren't you blessed with great skin?'
Wearing it makes my skin feel comfortable and good.
