By the way, it's said to be usable for acne-prone skin as well😉
ConsThe downside is that it's quite matte, so dry-skinned folks may need to use it more like a concealer. For combination skin types, it's best to use it after providing sufficient moisture in your base routine! Also...it's not exactly cheap, haha. And the fact that it's not sold in Korea, so you have to buy it through a proxy service...

This product has amazing coverage, so I really liked it.
ConsEven though I have oily skin, when I apply this product, it gets absorbed quickly and becomes matte. I had to mix it with oil to make it work.

Out of all the foundations I've tried, this one has the best coverage. It's also relatively affordable, so I've been using it consistently for a year now. 15 is a bit light, and 25 is a bit dark, so I mix 15 and 25 to use.
ConsIf you apply it on uneven skin or a lot of acne, the product's matte finish will emphasize those imperfections. I just checked the ingredients for the first time, and there are more problematic components than I expected.

The coverage is also quite decent. The ingredients seem to be gentler compared to other foundations.
ConsThe formula is a bit matte, so it may not be ideal for dry skin types. I purchased the Opal color since that's what many people seem to buy, but the color has a strong yellow undertone and is quite dark, so it may not be suitable for those with very fair skin. It's also a shame that it's not easily available in Korea.
TipIt might be better to use this as a concealer rather than a full foundation. If using it as a foundation, I would recommend having a solid skincare routine and applying it carefully.

Of course, it does get a bit blotchy, but since my skin breaks out right away even if I just skip washing my face after an all-nighter, this is a huge improvement for me. ㅎㅎ And the coverage is really good, so it works well even when I mix it with lotion.
ConsIt's true that since this is such a matte product, even a little bit of flakiness can emphasize it. The packaging is a tube, and sometimes the cap doesn't close perfectly or gets screwed on too tightly, so the foundation can leak out in my makeup bag... ㅜㅜ
TipI started using this because of the gentle ingredients, but as someone with dry skin, it was too drying for me ㅠㅠ So I made a solid skincare base with just a moisturizer, and mixed the foundation with lotion, which really improved the spreadability and allowed me to use a generous amount! If you want more coverage, you can apply it in two thin layers. When mixing with lotion, I blend it on the back of my hand, but don't overmix - just swirl it around gently ㅎㅎ If you mix too much, the product can start to break down on your hand. For those who find the adhesion lacking after mixing with lotion, try applying it with a damp, well-wrung makeup sponge~ I'd recommend trying this method if you're looking for a gentle foundation!
