Most of all, the price is incredibly affordable. I bought the genuine 23rd shade, so I got it in almond butter.
ConsThe darkening is a bit severe. So next time I'm going to try a 1.5 color. And I didn't know that applying sunscreen doesn't actually block UV rays.
TipInstead of applying with a brush or puff, I found that applying with my hands worked best for me!

When applied, it has a dense, sticky feel on the skin and when used as a foundation. The coverage is so-so, and since it has a serum-like finish, it has a slightly semi-matte appearance, but the natural glow develops beautifully over time. The caking around the nose area is moderate. The product also has a very convenient dispenser that allows easy control of the amount dispensed. Additionally, the color spectrum is quite wide.
ConsThe price is a bit steep, unfortunately..? As for the appearance, while it is a bit complex, it has grown on me a bit over time.
TipFor those with dry or combination skin, please establish a solid skincare routine. If applied properly, it will be fine. Hydration is the most important. For those with severe dark circles, a concealer is a must!

I have sensitive skin and if I use incompatible ingredients, my face immediately turns red and I get acne. But with this product, there was no itchiness or redness when I applied it or removed it, so I was really happy!! Even when I was sweating profusely in 33 degree heat, the coverage on my forehead didn't budge much, so the staying power was great too. I don't have a puff, so I applied it with my hands, and it blended seamlessly into my skin, which I really liked :) I usually use shade 21 in cushions, and since I have some yellow-toned acne scars, the almond butter shade looked a bit too dark for my skin tone. But it just evened out my complexion perfectly ๐ The formula is great, so I'm very satisfied ;)
ConsSince it's a serum foundation, there's a slightly dewy finish after application, so you'll need to set it with powder afterwards, which is a bit of a hassle. But it's not overly dewy, so it's still manageable. The coverage is a bit lacking, so those with blemishes will need to use a separate concealer.

Lots of pores and scars - a total disaster; Longevity ๐ค๐ค๐ค๐ค๐ค Wow, you guys, I'm amazed!! Even in the 35ยฐC heat and humid weather of summer, I don't have to retouch my makeup all day and it doesn't budge at all! No darkening or caking. And it applies lightly, so just a little concealer on the areas I want to cover gives a really natural skin finish! I tried it as a Hwahae Trial Reviewer, and I'll definitely repurchase once I finish this. Pore Coverage ๐ค๐ค๐ค๐ค๐ค My cheeks and T-zone have large pores, especially from acne scars, but it covers them lightly and naturally without emphasizing the pores. And the pores disappear all day... Matches my skin tone perfectly ๐ค๐ค๐ค๐ค๐ค I was really worried since my skin is very dark, but when I apply this, it matches my skin tone perfectly and creates a natural look. It blends seamlessly with the concealer I normally use! It's great for a quick, casual look when I just want to step out near my house, and also works well for everyday use.
ConsBut it's so good that I don't have any complaints. The opening is even small, so I really like how little product is used each time. ๐
TipI like to keep my base makeup light, and this is just the right amount! And if I add concealer on the areas I need, I can achieve a really natural-looking skin finish!

This review was written by a Hwahae Trial Reviewer who received the product for free and evaluated it with a sense of representing Hwahae. The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsThe Hwahae Trial Reviewer is a brand that produces cosmetics considering various skin tones. They have around 19 shades, so it's easy to find a color similar to my skin tone. The Hwahae Trial Reviewer is already famous for its concealer on Hwahae, so I had high expectations for its coverage. It has sold over 15 million units, and will soon be available at Olive Young as well. I'm glad I can try more products from this brand in the future. The packaging is a tube type, which is lightweight and easy to carry around and apply. The nozzle is pointed, making it easy to dispense the right amount. The body of the product also shows the color, making it convenient to choose the desired shade. As the name 'Serum Foundation' suggests, it is 83.6% serum-based. The serum contains peptides, vitamin oils, and fermented nutrients from various plants, giving it a smooth and slightly tacky application that requires careful amount control. True to its 'bespoke foundation' description, it comes in 19 shades, making it a great product for diverse skin tones. As someone with a darker skin tone, I usually have to mix multiple products, but this allows me to find the perfect match easily. The scent is a subtle plant-based fragrance with a refreshing yet slightly bitter note, which shouldn't be an issue for most people unless they are very sensitive. As a serum foundation, it has a hydrating formula. It claims to increase skin moisture by 180% upon application, making it perfect for those with dry skin. A small amount provides a radiant finish. However, due to the high serum content, it has a slightly tacky and dense texture, especially in the summer. Careful application and amount control are necessary. It absorbs well into fine lines, providing a pleasant application experience. Nowadays, natural-looking skin is popular, so the Hwahae Trial Reviewer concealer is great for covering blemishes without looking cakey. It seems the goal of this foundation was not to create a BB cream-like product that provides full coverage and radiant, even skin, but rather a serum-based foundation that enhances natural-looking skin. Overall, this is a hydrating, glowing foundation perfect for dry skin! ๐ฅฐ It evens out the skin tone and leaves a dewy, moisturized look. It's great for applying a sheer layer to achieve a natural, your-skin-but-better finish. The wide range of 19 shades and the affordable price of 14,000 won are huge advantages, lowering the entry barrier. The blendable formula also makes it easy to mix and match shades if needed. The lightweight 30g tube packaging is convenient for carrying around and touching up on the go. You can simply wipe off with a wet wipe and reapply for a refreshed, comfortable finish, like a BB cream. A small amount smoothed on with the fingers works beautifully.
ConsWhile the serum foundation alone may not provide sufficient coverage, and failing to control the amount applied can make the skin appear quite greasy and messy๐ฅฒ, the blemishes can be effectively covered with a concealer.๐ค
TipIt's great for carrying around in your bag and applying, thanks to its small size.๐ฆ It's moisturizing.๐ฅฐ

Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsSensitive/Combination Skin As summer arrived, my skin became oilier, and I felt like I needed to use less base makeup, as it didn't seem to apply as well. After receiving the Hwahae Trial Reviewer sample of the Tint Fit Foundation, I found that it applied well even with my usual light base routine, and it helped to control redness. Of course, as time passed, it seemed to get a bit oilier than other foundations/cushions, but the natural coverage was so nice that I felt like I only used this for a week. This is the first time I've tried a tube-type foundation, and I found the amount control to be very convenient. The pump packaging also means there's less risk of the foundation getting messy around the lid, which was a hygiene concern I had with other products, so I really appreciate that aspect of the tube design. Those around NC23 would likely find the W02 color to be a good match.
ConsThe dewy formula may be a bit challenging to use in the summer, but as long as you apply a light base, it shouldn't be a major issue. For those looking for full coverage, I would recommend trying a different product.
TipAs you can see in the photo, it does a great job of covering redness and some minor discoloration. The slightly caked-on area is likely due to not exfoliating enough.

Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsThe product is reasonably priced, and it is not overly drying or heavy on the skin. The coverage is not bad, and it is easy to control the amount applied. So it's a product I reach for often. For reference, I have very oily skin, so I always have to use blotting papers after lunch. Texture and Packaging The texture is not too runny, with a slightly creamy feel. Even though it's a serum foundation, it applies smoothly and doesn't cling or look cakey. The tube packaging is lightweight and portable, and the transparent bottom makes it easy to see how much product is left.The tapered applicator tip also allows for easy application and control. Application The texture is slightly thick, but it spreads out thinly when applied with a spatula. When patted on with a puff, it blends seamlessly without any visible edges. It has a dewy finish, but doesn't feel overly oily to me, even in the humid summer weather. It doesn't make my skin feel suffocated. Shade Match I have a fairly dark complexion, around shade 23, and the shade matched my skin tone very well. I found it a bit too dark, so I mixed it with a lighter shade 22, which worked nicely. When worn alone, it gives a natural, skin-like glow, so I use it on its own for a bare-faced look.
ConsAs a serum foundation, it can feel a bit oily for those with very oily skin types. It may be better to mix it with a matte foundation or use it on drier skin days.
TipI recommend mixing it with a slightly lighter foundation and setting it with powder, especially for those with oily skin.

I strongly recommend it to those with dry skin. However, the coverage is much less than foundation. ๐ข I'm usually a 23 shade and the side with the glow looks like the correct one, but it's almost undetectable! It has a tinted cream-like feel. It's great for those who do light makeup! Just for a quick outing! It's good for those who like the feeling of having makeup on but not being able to tell.
ConsFor oily skin like mine, it's too moisturizing and disappointing! In the summer, it gets way too slippery. But it'll probably be just right in the winter. It's inexpensive, and the amount is a bit small, but the price is appropriate.
TipI was using a Hera product before, but this was too difficult to apply (it hardens immediately after application) so I mixed it with another moisturizing product. But when I mixed and applied this, it was perfect. Oily skin will have a hard time using it alone, so mix it 2:1 with a thicker foundation formula. It's great!

I applied it with a spatula and it had that signature creamy, gliding texture of skincare products! It was amazing. I was worried that it would apply too thinly and have poor coverage, but that wasn't the case at all. The coverage isn't as full as the Jungsaem Water Cushion, but it still provides decent coverage. It also feels very lightweight. The tube packaging is clean and nice.
ConsThe pore coverage could be a bit better, and there's a slight cakiness and transfer... But the incredibly smooth application overpowers those minor issues.
TipUsing the small Filimilli pore brush for a second layer of coverage helps with the pore coverage. But the more you build up the coverage, the more the dewy finish gets muted and it starts to feel a bit cakey, so you'll need to be careful with the application amount.

I also have combination skin with dryness and oily outbreaks, so it's really difficult to find the right skincare products. โ๏ธWhen I apply cushion or BB creams, my skin gets oily, but it also feels tight and the makeup ends up breaking down after a short while, so I often just don't wear anything at all. As my freckles and dark spots got worse, I started looking for cushions or foundations that could help even out my skin tone for when I go out, and that's when I was lucky enough to be selected for the Hwahae Trial Reviewer program and got to try this product. โ๏ธFirst of all, the surface of the skin feels matte and supple, helping to control the dryness. I only used a small amount, dotting it all over my face and gently patting it in with a puff to apply it very thinly, but even with just a small amount, it was able to evenly cover my freckles, dark spots, and dullness, which I really liked. After applying it and doing some chores on a hot day, I checked the mirror and was surprised to see that the foundation hadn't broken down or separated, even with the thin application. :) (Ah, I've found a winner!) The biggest concern I had was that when I wear cushions or foundations, my skin often feels tight and uncomfortable throughout the day (and mists don't seem to help), but I didn't really experience that issue with this foundation. โ๏ธThe most impressive part was the shade match - with my yellow-toned skin and freckles/dark spots, the almond butter shade worked perfectly. The goal wasn't to brighten my skin, but to lightly conceal the imperfections and even out my skin tone, and the slightly deeper shade helped with that. โ๏ธFor those who don't usually wear a lot of makeup, this foundation can be used like a light BB cream. When I apply it thinly as my everyday base, it helps to refine my skin tone and cover the discoloration nicely. Since it's a bit darker than my natural skin tone, it does a great job of concealing the blemishes. โ๏ธThe tube opening is small, so it's really easy to dispense just the right amount. The tube design is excellent for controlling the amount. โ๏ธIt has a bubblegum-like fragrance... but it's not unpleasant.
ConsI'd like to criticize, but there's nothing to complain about. I'm very satisfied :)
TipFor those who don't usually do much skin makeup but need a light daily makeup to slightly cover freckles and blemishes, and for those who have been reluctant to purchase foundation due to the obsession with using a convenient cushion, try applying this foundation thinly, like a BB cream. It provides a seamless, supple finish without caking. Highly satisfied :)
