The moisturizing effect was not as intense as expected.
The color is a pinkish base with a greyish tone, so it is not a very natural color.
The pump requires a lot of force, but the contents spurt out each time, which is disappointing.

✔️Moisturizing
Closer to a dewy foundation between semi-matte and semi-glow

✔️Coverage
Medium to high coverage

✔️Longevity
Maintains a clean, seamless look without any flaking

라이트 리플렉팅 파운데이션 [오슬로]

There's nothing regrettable.
There really isn't anything.

The liquid formulation is not at all irritating to the face and feels incredibly soothing.
It was truly wonderful.

For me, who is rather superficial, the skin expression becomes too dry and unconditionally flushed... So my hands hardly go to it, and I've left almost half of the foundation..

The skin tone itself became brighter, which was good as it allowed for a clear-toned makeup application.

It's so disappointing that portion control is difficult. I wish I could use just a little, but it always ends up being a lot.

I've been using it for about three months.
While it's hard to tell from the photos, the foundation has a pinkish hue.
The application is so-so, and it's not quite the perfect match for my dry skin, which is a bit disappointing.. However, it has good coverage and longevity, so I'm still using it well!!

It seems like we should focus on the basics. There weren't any particular issues with the trouble, and it's actually a bit matte than I expected.

I bought it at the duty-free shop, but it turned out to be more effective than I expected, and my pores are well-defined. Since it's a water-based product, it's more difficult than I thought to match it with my skincare or sunscreen. I've tried applying it with a puff, and I've also used a spatula, but the spatula application is recommended.

This foundation seems to require some Hwahae. And the coverage is not extremely good!!

It was so nice that there was not even a single elephant. If I just control the amount, I don't think there will be a foundation that fits me as well as this one.
I only use this foundation!!

The coverage for blemishes is weak, so I must use a concealer. It is also on the pricier side.

I really like how thinly adhered and softly luminous it is. The variety of colors is also great. 💕

Applying it together with Hwahae makes it more moisturizing.

The color came out a bit brighter than Oslo, which would be preferable.

The usage period is from December 2024 to January 2025.
The usage frequency is around 14 times.
The reasons for purchase are:
- The formula is not too dewy nor too matte.
- Most existing foundations have a yellow undertone, but a pink-based one is needed.
- The coverage is just right.
The review after use is as follows:
- The coverage is adequate.
- It is between dewy and semi-matte.
- It does not leave blemishes or acne.
- It does not apply too thickly.
- The longevity is good. It does not break down easily over time.
- The color 'Oslo' was thought to be very bright, but it is not that bright. It is less white than other foundation shades.
In conclusion, I am considering repurchasing this product. If not, I think this product is still quite good. I recommend it.

The Hwahae Trial Reviewer makes the glow foundation look messy due to the T-zone and butterfly zone sebum, and when I dislike the primer being pushed, I use the Primavista makeup base for oily skin (black bottle). Personally, I feel that this works better at controlling sebum, lasting longer, and being more effective than the Sephora blue-based primer, and it also has less conflict with skincare. (It rarely gets pushed) It doesn't cover unevenness like silicone primers that fill in pores, but it organizes the sebum and texturizes the skin, significantly reducing the prominence of pores. The formula is very thin and doesn't apply excessively, so the failure rate is lower when applying it in a hurry. The light-reflecting properties also work very well with this combination. I went to a concert in the summer with this combination (+Canmake Secret Beauty Powder 01 Medicinal) and it was fine without any touch-ups!

And the puff... the Espoir Velvety Puff applies the best, so I always use this when in a hurry. For a more precise application, I use the pink sponges (?) that come in a large bag from Daiso, cut into smaller pieces. Dampened, this method applies even more thinly, which is perfect for layering with other concealers. The longevity (which is good for all) and the improved facial expression over time are definite advantages!

This foundation is not recommended for those who do not like a full pink base. It is also not recommended for those who want an extremely glowy foundation. It does not provide a radiant glow. As the name suggests, it is perfect for light reflecting, giving a smooth, luminous finish. Therefore, I recommend this to those with oily or combination skin who want to use a glowy foundation.

The left image is right after going out (8:30 AM) and the right image is after returning home (11:30 PM). I usually don't do much makeup, just using a light powder to control the oil, and the Glowfit Foundation had the best lasting power on my skin. It applies thinly, doesn't cling to skin conditions, has a radiant finish, and minimal darkening. I use a primer and it covers pores well while feeling moisturizing like skincare. The application is smooth, not a fully dewy foundation, but a semi-matte finish that looks seamlessly blended. I highly recommend it for those with dry skin. The coverage is quite high, but may not work as well for those with a lot of blemishes. Paired with powder, it lasts nicely in a light semi-matte look. It has become my holy grail foundation!
I usually use shades 17-19 and the Oslo shade matched me perfectly. Those using 21 should also be able to wear it brightly. Even with my oily skin, it doesn't get messy or break down, though without primer and powder it can fade a bit. With just primer, it maintains a glowy skin finish, and with powder, it develops a natural luminous glow by the end of the day.

I wish the pink base color was a bit brighter.

The Nars Foundation is my first time trying it, and I like it. The 13-17 summer cool light shade is a bit too dark for my skin tone, but it's not bad. It's not a clear pink base, but has a slight yellow undertone. It's a moisturizing foundation, but the lasting power is good.

Using it with the Nars primer or Mac primer is good, and layering the base thinly and pressing it well, then applying it thinly with a spatula, can make the expression look clean and natural like your own skin.

There is a slight issue with the dispenser. They didn't do an exchange, so I had to use it with some anxiety each time, but it turned out okay sometimes.

The Montblanc product seems a bit dark for some, but those who use it are very satisfied. The color is just so beautiful, and the skin expression is smooth and nice after application.

The photo was taken about 6 hours later. What's going on with the lack of darkening...

Not yet..?
In my eyes, it's better than other brands in terms of skin expression and color, but why did the makeup artist say the other brand's foundation is better (asked blindly)

I'll try it once more and of course, when compared to the Futurist, the skin texture looks relatively worse

Test Review
1. The glow is like this! The glow is so pretty ㅠㅠ It makes my skin look smoother.
2. The color suits me well. Redness + yellow undertone skin
