Most articles on Nave* claiming parabens are harmful are actually promotional pieces for natural cosmetics #Staying Power - Not bad (decent enough)
Cons#Messy Breakdown - Especially around the sides of the nose, it breaks down in a really unattractive way #Doesn't Cover Pores #Shade 15 is too light and 25 is too dark
TipHaving struggled a lot with acne, I bought this product solely based on its ingredients. If you're looking for a gentle foundation, I recommend this.

There's a reason it's called the affordable Double Wear. Doesn't cause blemishes - I have acne-prone and sensitive skin, but it doesn't break me out. However, as time passes, oil builds up and can lead to blemishes. To prevent this, use blotting papers and finish with a setting powder.
ConsThe shade Opal, which is supposed to be the lightest, is still too dark for me. This might be why I thought it covered acne scars better. I have very oily skin, and while it claims to be matte, it's not really matte? It feels like applying oil, and though the finish is matte, something feels off. It applies thickly and emphasizes texture terribly. Pore coverage is non-existent. It washes off with just water and simply runs down your face. The staying power is awful. Maybe because I'm super oily, but it doesn't last long. When it breaks down, it's not pretty. The only reason I didn't toss it was its high coverage and that it didn't initially cause breakouts. But without blotting papers, the excess oil led to blemishes.
TipRemember to shake well before use.

The coverage is excellent, and most importantly, even though I have very sensitive skin, I didn't experience any breakouts, and the ingredients are great, so I can use it with confidence!
ConsIt doesn't seem to last more than 12 hours. It lasts around 7 hours, and the way it breaks down isn't that pretty. Also, the color is too bright, so I've been mixing it with a nude shade 25 as well.
TipIf you usually use shades 21 or 23, I'd recommend buying a nude shade and mixing it in as well!

Non-irritating for even extremely problematic skin. Can be worn all day without causing any breakouts. I've even slept with it on a few times without developing any blemishes afterwards. This foundation seems ideal for those with skin in the transitional stage of gradually clearing up from numerous breakouts, using it as a base to aid in complete recovery and skin improvement. 2. In terms of coverage, it's quite good. It's said to have coverage comparable to Estée Lauder Double Wear, though I can't personally attest to that. It covers reddish-brown acne marks (just evens out the color!). 3. A small amount can lightly cover the entire face. 4. If using it as a full foundation feels too heavy, you can use a tiny amount as a concealer instead. 5. As it has a matte finish, it's great for those with oily skin or for use in the summer when oil production is high.
Cons1. Difficult to obtain in Korea, requiring overseas shipping. Also quite expensive. 2. The longevity is poor, fading significantly. After applying it in the morning, eating breakfast, and brushing my teeth, when I look in the mirror, only the area around my mouth where water touched has been wiped away. When it comes into contact with water, it just starts dripping off in a yellowish runny mess. It also doesn't last all day, so I have to reapply, and over time it starts to look patchy. 3. It may just be my product, but even without applying much pressure, as soon as I open the lid, the foundation just starts oozing out over the top of the container, so even though I haven't used it much, the amount has decreased rapidly. 4. Severe blemishes that have come to the surface, like cystic acne with a hard core, are only covered in terms of color, but the bumpy texture is not concealed. 5. If you have significant skin unevenness from acne scarring, it cannot cover the textural irregularities. Pores are also still visible. 6. While the shades are meant to cater to foreign skin tones, it still doesn't match me well. Even the lightest shade has a yellowish tone.
TipBe careful not to apply it too thickly, as that can cause the skin to look patchy and make pores and blemishes more pronounced. I recommend building up the coverage in thin layers instead. Also, if you're looking for a foundation product that can help slow down or prevent new breakouts from surfacing, and you need to wear makeup regularly, I highly recommend this as a base.

Even when applying foundation, it feels light and does not particularly cause any breakouts.
ConsThe color doesn't quite match, so I have to mix 15 and 25. It clumps a bit. When it breaks down, it doesn't look very nice.
TipThe key is to use an inexpensive puff, soak it in water, and then apply a small amount evenly.
