The smooth application and great adherence mean it goes on thinly, and I didn't need to retouch my makeup even after 6 hours at school! Plus, the color is really pretty, and it gives a beautiful, glowing finish to the skin.
ConsThe price is a bit high, and the packaging looks a bit toothpaste-like, if I had to describe it... I wish they had paid a bit more attention to the case design.
TipUsing a damp Dupe Puff to apply it really makes the skin look amazing.

As I have a combination of dry and oily skin, I liked that it wasn't too drying since it had a bit of oil. I switched to the Giorgio Armani foundation in the summer, but came back to this one - personally, I find this foundation suits me better than the Armani one. And since a bottle lasts a long time, I don't think it's too expensive either.
ConsThe texture is a bit heavy? I was a bit worried about the pore-filling claim, but other than that, there weren't really any downsides!

The coverage is very good and the longevity is also good, but I have since stopped using the product due to skin issues.
ConsWhen I started wearing makeup, I bought this foundation without realizing it didn't suit my skin. I used up two bottles of it. During the time I was using the product, my skin had some small pimples, but I really liked how the coverage was so full. However, over time, the small pimples just spread more, and now I just have a pimply complexion. I felt sorry for my skin, and that's when I stopped using this product.
TipIf you have oily skin with small pimples or no other acne, you can see an amazing coverage and longevity with this. It wears down as usual, but it wears down in a glowy way. However, you need to be very careful with cleansing. If you're not careful, you might end up with skin like mine.

There are some blemish marks here and there, and since I prefer a clean skin expression, I purchased a foundation with good coverage. Except for the newly formed blemish marks, the coverage is satisfactory enough that I don't feel the need to use a concealer. The longevity was good even after 12 hours of wear. Some people say there is darkening, but I was fine with it. The color is on the yellow side, but I like to match my makeup to my natural skin tone, so it was okay for me. It's not a bright, pink-toned look.
ConsThere were no breakouts after use, the longevity is good, the coverage is good, and there is no darkening, but there is dryness and creasing around the under-eye area and the sides of the nose. Even though I applied enough eye cream and layered the foundation, and even mixed Vaseline with a wrinkle-improving serum and applied it, I couldn't solve this creasing issue... I just gave up, and it's comfortable now. Strangely, there was also some creasing-like texture on the chin area, which I think might be because the chin is used for expression and speech like the eye or laugh lines. This part can be fixed, so it's not too much of a hassle.
TipIf you apply it with a damp sponge, it will result in a more hydrated makeup look, but the coverage will be slightly reduced. If you use the Skinfood wedge puff, it will finish with a fluffy, powdery look, and I prefer the latter. The puff seems to pick up less of the foundation.

I used it daily and it lasted a really long time. It's not super hydrating, but I wanted something with good longevity and coverage, so it's a bit matte but not bad. It works great if you have a solid skincare routine and apply it on top. The tube format is convenient to use and carry around for touch-ups.
ConsAs this product has good longevity and coverage, it might be difficult for those with very dry skin to use. It has a matte and slightly thick application.

It has good spreadability and adherence. When applied thinly with a brush, it spreads smoothly with just a small amount. If you apply it broadly and thinly, and then pat it down with the brush, it will stay on all day. After doing this and going out, I often heard people say my skin looked great. It was a product that gave a lot of satisfaction when applied to others as well. 2. The amount is generous. If used alone, it could last for more than a year. 3. The color is yellow. This is a matter of personal preference, but I prefer the yellow-based NC series as it blended naturally with my skin tone. Personally, I dislike the NW series as it has a somewhat reddish feel to me. It's not pink, but rather red. 4. I like the finish. It has a somewhat matte feel, and although I have dry skin, I prefer this texture, so I've used a few bottles of it.
Cons1. The lid is slightly rounded, and the body is thin and long, so it's very difficult to stand it up. You have to stick it somewhere, which is not ideal. 2. The price has been gradually increasing. I don't think it was 45,000 won before, but now the first digit has changed, which is disappointing. 3. The color range. The Studio Fix line has the NC18 shade for Asian skin tones, but the Sculpt line doesn't have that, which is a frustration for me. 15 is too light, and 20 is too warm and golden, so I had to mix the two, which was a hassle. It's a shame there's no suitable color match without having to mix.

I bought it after seeing a blog post by a makeup artist who uses it on models who want high coverage, and the coverage is really good. It covers redness and blemishes well. You don't even need a concealer. The shade range is very diverse. It's not particularly moisturizing, but surprisingly, it doesn't cling to dry areas. There's no darkening. The longevity is also good, to the point where you don't need to touch up. After applying, there's no transfer onto your hands or phone when they touch your face.
ConsThe formula is thick. (That's why it's recommended to mix it with a strobing cream, but the MAC one is too expensive, so I'm using a cheaper Missha strobing cream instead) It's kind of drying, but not really...? At first, it has a drying finish, but over time it becomes reasonably moisturized... I'm not sure if it's because of the oil from my own face, though. However, it may be too drying for those with extremely dry skin. And the shade range is too diverse, so it's hard to find the right color that matches your skin tone (I also bought the wrong shade for my skin tone).
