Even in the summer, I would put it on in the morning before going to work, and aside from a quick touch-up around my nose or a quick rinse of my mouth at lunchtime, I only needed to do a quick touch-up before leaving work. I liked the powdery finish, and even though I have dry skin, this foundation worked well for me. It provided a good base and didn't feel heavy. My skin is on the lighter side, so it was hard for me to find the right foundation shade, but the 784 shade was a perfect match. I loved it so much that I repurchased and used it for a very long time, and while using this product, I also tried and liked other Shu Uemura base and color products.
ConsIt's a bit of a shame that I had to buy a separate puff. And since it's matte, if you don't spread it evenly, there can be some leftover areas. It can look a bit stuffy if you don't apply it thinly, but given the nature of the product, I don't think you'd want to apply it too thickly.
TipI'd recommend this to people with a pink undertone who find that they look dull. I was using the 784 shade, and the staff recommended a different shade with a pink base, which I bought, but it ended up looking like I had poop on my face.

I have combination skin that is sensitive, so when I use products with pore-clogging ingredients, I immediately get breakouts. That's why I'm very careful about checking the ingredients. I used to use Estée Lauder Double Wear, but it was too matte, and if my skin condition was poor or didn't match well with my skincare, it would just not spread evenly and look terrible. But this product is less drying than Double Wear, and there's less emphasis on the uneven texture. The lasting power is also pretty good. The coverage isn't excellent, but it's medium to high. And I didn't experience any breakouts from using it! I've tried almost every foundation, and this is the one I'm most satisfied with so far. I plan to repurchase it.
ConsIt's nice that it fades beautifully while maintaining a radiant glow, but my skin itself seems to just peel off the foundation over time. It's not flaky, but even when I apply it thinly, after a few hours it looks like there's a thick layer of makeup on my face, almost as if I'm wearing a mask. I'm not sure how to describe it, but I think those with similar experiences of foundation peeling off would understand. This issue seems to be a bit more pronounced compared to other foundations. Also, since it's a bit matte, you'll need to apply it quickly. And as a pore-minimizing foundation, you'll need to be extra diligent with cleansing.
TipI'm using the 784 shade, and even though my face is on the paler side, when I apply a lot, it looks like there's a white cast all over. With this foundation, the shade may vary, but out of the ones I've tried, if I apply even a little bit more, it starts to feel too thick. I'd recommend focusing on applying a small amount to the central areas first, then using the remaining product to lightly dab the outer parts of the face.

Haha. I have oily skin with blemishes and acne scars, so I like good coverage and a smooth, velvety finish, and this seems to be the best for me.
ConsSince the coverage is so good, it's a bit matte. I think it might look a bit cakey on dry skin.
TipMy skin is quite oily, so I usually just use it as is, but when it's unusually dry, I mix it with a thinner foundation or a bit of moisturizer. That way, it doesn't look too dry and cakey.

ConsIt seems a bit drying now that it's winter... The surface looks a bit patchy, but among the liquid foundations that apply thinly, this one seems to be the least prone to patchiness. The only downside is that I wish there were a slightly lighter pink-toned shade available...
TipWhen I dab it on, it applies cleanly and doesn't get patchy! Among the products I've tried, which tend to get patchy on me, this one has been the best.

I once wore it for almost 12 hours while taking an exam, and it didn't require any touch-ups or darken. It also seems to provide a nice skin expression.
ConsThe coverage is much less than expected (using shade 764). Even after applying it a couple of times, it doesn't cover the reddish blemishes, acne scars, or anything that needs to be concealed. I used to use Hera, which has a darker 23rd shade that covers well, but even considering that, this is a disappointment... The adhesion is also not great. My skin condition is not too bad now, so I can use it without much trouble, but I don't think I'll use it again.
TipI've been breaking out, and I think it's because of the denatured alcohol in this product. When I stopped using it, the stubborn acne went away, so this foundation doesn't seem to work well for me. The sponge is said to be perfect for pore-minimizing foundations, so I've been using it with this product. The artist recommended applying it with the sponge, sweeping it across the face, and then patting it to finish.

ConsThe price is a bit high and it's quite drying. From the first application, there's a slight tightening sensation.

ConsThe darkening.. it's too much. The coverage is also not great, and when I apply it in the morning and look in the mirror for work, there's so much oil. I don't recommend it for people like me with oily skin

However...
ConsSetting aside the concealment of redness, there was a slight alcohol smell that made me feel uneasy, but as expected, it was a bit bumpy.^^...ㅜㅜㅜ Oh, and after about 5 hours, the makeup felt a bit flaky. This may have been because I have dry skin.. If you have sensitive skin, you should definitely do a patch test!

It feels like baby skin. And when it breaks down, it doesn't crumble messily, which is good.
ConsMy skin is on the lighter side, but the color tone doesn't match. It's too yellow. I bought the color the store clerk recommended, and it seemed to match when they applied it in the store, but outside it doesn't match. Over time, it gets too shiny and dewy. There's some oiliness that makes it shiny, but it also has a bit of a dewy, glassy look, so it might be good for fall or winter. But I don't think the 59,000 won foundation is worth it.

It held up relatively well even when I sweated a bit.
ConsIt had a somewhat dry feeling, and over time, it actually emphasized wrinkles and pores more than other foundations.
