The gold has good spreadability and a natural finish, so I use it a lot on a daily basis, but since the shade 17 is a bit toned down for me, I bought it to express a brighter look, and I'm using it well for that purpose.
ConsThe gold-colored Descartes has an overwhelming advantage of being very moisturizing and applying naturally, but this one has a somewhat ambiguous positioning. When the base is not well-prepared, it applies dryly, and on days when I put in the effort to do my makeup, it doesn't express itself as prettily. But I still end up buying it every year, haha.
TipIt's a bit brighter than the gold color, less moisturizing, and I mainly use it in the summer because of the higher SPF.

I didn't have high expectations, but when I applied it, it turned out to be fantastic! My skin tone is a bit on the darker side, and I usually have to use 23 shades of cushion foundation to make it look lighter, but this BB cream in shade 21 is a perfect match for me. It's been a while since I've used a BB cream, and this one is just so beautiful. It makes my skin look naturally a little brighter, without being too much. When I apply it, the formula starts out matte, but as I spread it out, it blends in smoothly and applies thinly. There's minimal caking, and I really like it! It lasts for half a day before gradually fading, but it fades nicely. I think I can easily touch up with additional product on top. As a combination skin type, I don't get any breakouts, and it doesn't emphasize any dry patches, which is great!
ConsSince I've only used it for a few days, I haven't really found any downsides yet. If I had to nitpick, the coverage isn't extremely heavy-duty - it just covers minor blemishes, freckles, and small pimples. Luckily, I don't have any major breakouts or acne scars, so it works fine for me. But for those who need more coverage, you might want to use a concealer along with this BB cream.
TipI find that applying this with a sponge or puff gives an even thinner and more seamless application, and it really helps the product adhere to the skin nicely.

Even though my skin is dry, it applies moisturizing and smoothly. I don't like products that make my already fair skin look overly pale, but this one has a very natural color tone - maybe because there's only one shade. There's no dark or grayish cast, it's just perfect~~
ConsThe only downside is that while it's just right for me, it might be a bit too dark for those who prefer a paler look than their natural skin tone. It seems to be a little or about the same depth as the common 21 shade.
TipI found that applying it lightly with a damp sponge puff works well!

It's great for using a concealer to cover up areas you want to hide. The application is smooth - this BB cream is quite moisturizing, so when applied, it leaves a subtle glow that makes the skin look healthy. The price is also quite affordable, and it matches your skin tone naturally for a natural look.
ConsThe downside is that the coverage is not very strong, so it is not very effective at covering up freckles, spots, and other areas you want to conceal.

The CEO was very kind and generously took care of various things, but my 20,000 won was already gone. Compared to Descartes and Bibi, the color is whiter and brighter. I'm using shade 21, and it brightened up naturally with a neutral color! The adhesion was excellent.
ConsAh.. It's a failure. There's a bit of eye irritation, and when it breaks down, the pores become quite prominent. Depending on the lighting, after applying it and looking in the mirror, it accentuated the oily spots on my nose and forehead, so I thought I had come out without doing a pore pack and sebum removal. Shock.. No repurchase. Use it if you don't have uneven texture. It's also not recommended for dry skin.. The adhesion is very high, but I couldn't feel any moisturizing effect. I wonder where the snail went...? I usually have severe eye irritation when using organic sunscreens, but this is the first time I've experienced eye irritation with a base product that blocks UV rays. It seems the UV protection is really effective^^haha.. The eye irritation was disappointing, but the color also had a slightly grayish tone. After applying it to the back of my hand and walking around for about an hour, I noticed the grayish tone, so I had somewhat expected it. Compared to other BB creams, the grayish tone is almost non-existent, but after using only foundation for a while, I've been in a BB cream mood lately, so I'll try a few more The Saem products, and if it's still not right, I'll go back to wandering with foundation. Compared to BB creams, this one had less of a grayish tone.
TipSob.. Use it if you don't have uneven texture.. I often have severe eye irritation with products containing ethylhexyl methoxycinnamate, so I always make sure to test it on my eyes before buying. ☆☆☆☆☆=Holy Grail/Potential Holy Grail, Buy it!! ☆☆☆☆=Good! You won't regret buying it ☆☆☆=Usable if you have it. No need to buy it specifically ☆☆=Won't use it even if you have it ☆=Will throw it away within a few days

The adhesion is top-notch. Applying it as a BB cream and finishing with powder is perfect. It covers blemishes and blackheads well. For fair skin, it blends in naturally, and for darker skin, it brightens the complexion naturally (without looking ashy).
ConsWhen I only apply the BB cream, the longevity is too short. On hot or oily days, the pores can look visible.
TipApplying the BB cream and finishing with powder can increase the longevity. Using a puff to apply it provides much better coverage than using your fingers.

It also gives a natural-looking glow.
ConsAfter using it for a while, I noticed it starts to look a bit greyish. And in the summer, it can look a bit shiny, so it's not the best to use then. When used with sunscreen, it gets extremely shiny. I think I'll need a mattifying balm or blotting papers to control the oiliness.

And even when it wears off, it still looks pretty... It makes my oily skin look radiant.
ConsIt only comes in one color... And the matte side isn't really matte, so it's not great for summer use... The oily skin version might not be the best choice either...

It looks natural. I used the It's Skin Glemderkarko(?) BB cream for over 2 years, and both that and this one are moisturizing and nice. It applies well and brightens the complexion.
ConsThose who prioritize coverage may not be satisfied. The longevity is satisfactory for me, but it may not last long for those with oily skin.
TipJust apply it and you're good to go.
