- Hwahae UserOily SkinFeb 20, 2025
It seems slightly lighter than shade 23, maybe half a shade? It would look too bright for those who usually use 23, but it's a natural shade for those who typically use 21. It has a strong yellow undertone. The adherence is quite good. Even with a quick application, it sticks well to the skin without looking thick, creating a thin, well-adhered layer. The formula allows for buildable coverage, and it doesn't clump or separate when layered. The coverage is impressive. One thin layer covers most blemishes, and with two layers, you might not even need concealer. The staying power is excellent. Even on oily skin, it lasts a solid 7-8 hours without noticeable breakdown. It maintains the initial makeup look throughout wear. Over time, oil may surface around the nose area, but it only creates a slight shine without clumping or deteriorating. In terms of longevity, this product is among the best. I bought this after being tempted by Instagram ads, but it didn't live up to my expectations. I tested it multiple times thinking I might be using it wrong, but the conclusion remained the same. Firstly, it's drying. Even with oily skin, I felt tightness during this dry winter. Compared to other matte foundations, this one uniquely caused severe deep dryness. It doesn't make the skin look beautiful or luxurious. The ads showed it applying beautifully regardless of skin condition, but that wasn't the case. It applies like an ordinary foundation, doesn't enhance skin texture or appearance, and actually looked somewhat dull. Even on good skin days and with makeup base, it appeared heavy. The skin finish is quite disappointing. It accentuates pores, texture, and dead skin cells. This is why the skin doesn't look pretty. Even with good moisturizing and exfoliation, imperfections are too visible. Using a primer doesn't help either. Compared to other foundations, it emphasizes texture significantly more. This is only suitable for those with extremely smooth skin texture.
