The texture is not too runny but nicely creamy. The suede shade blended seamlessly into my skin tone (shade 22) and the coverage was quite minimal. However, it evened out my skin tone and gave a clean, radiant finish, making my skin look clearer. If you prioritize skin expression over coverage, and plan to use a concealer for that, I would recommend this foundation.
ConsThe longevity was a bit disappointing. It was dewy enough to have some transfer. However, it didn't get messy and just melted away cleanly. And the lack of sun protection is critical in this scorching summer. Overall, the formula might be better suited for the fall/winter season rather than the current hot summer.
TipIt worked better with a pore brush than with a puff or sponge.

The creamy texture was easy to spread evenly with the cushion puff. It applied cleanly without leaving any marks. My skin felt comfortable without any heaviness or darkening. The fragrance was barely noticeable, which I liked. A small amount provided adequate coverage. It did not get oily or sweaty, and just lightly blotting with a tissue kept it in good condition.
ConsI normally use shade 21 without issue, but this seemed a bit too dark and had some transfer, so I needed to set it with powder for the finish.

I wore it for 8 hours and had no new breakouts or worsening of existing acne (+ however, after using this product consistently for 2-3 days and going out, I developed 3 pimples...I'm not sure about the ingredients). • No darkening - Absolutely none. The color stays the same from application to when I get back home. ⭐️ For those with naturally good skin who just need lasting wear, no darkening, and no dryness, this is a must-buy! ⭐️
Cons• Coverage - It's like a chronic disease for glow products, the coverage is really lacking.. You can basically say there's almost no coverage at all.. At best, it slightly conceals dark circles, but nothing can cover blemishes, redness around the nose, pigmentation, or freckles. It just doesn't cover anything. • Transferring - Even for a glow product, this one is unusually bad. Within 10 minutes of application, just touching it with your finger will leave a mark.. Unless you meticulously apply powder all over, it transfers like a stamp. • Excessive oil - Even though it's a glow product, the formula and powder together create a synergy that makes the oil just ooze out, making the nose area completely shiny, so powder is an absolute must. • Creasing - Another chronic issue with glow products.. But the creasing on the eyelids is just way too severe. Just blinking 3 times and the eyelids have two creases.. Interestingly though, there's no creasing on the forehead or laugh lines.. It's really strange, as I'm usually someone who gets creasing with any base product on those areas, but this one doesn't crease there at all.❤️ However, even the tiniest amount on the eyelids will cause severe creasing. ⭐️ If you absolutely cannot stand products with even slightly lacking coverage, do not, under any circumstances, purchase this. ⭐️
TipDefinitely, using it together with a good coverage concealer works well! Most high-coverage products tend to be drying, but since this one is so moisturizing, the synergy when used together was great! I'd recommend using your fingers or a brush rather than a puff. When applying with a spatula and then a puff, the puff tends to absorb more product than the skin does...Personally, I found that using my fingers worked best. The 3rd photo is bare skin, the 4th is after one application, the 5th is after about 3-4 applications, and the last photo is after 8 hours of being out (using concealer and powder).
