The smooth application even when applied with my fingers without using a brush was also nice. I had previously used the Lancome Teint Miracle (since I heard it was moisturizing for dry skin), but while it was hydrating, the coverage was too sheer for me. So I tried the NARS one, which has good coverage and is still moisturizing, and I really liked the right balance of hydration and coverage. It doesn't get cakey over time either. I have a skin tone that falls between shades 21 and 23. The color matches my skin naturally without looking like I'm wearing makeup. It does give me a slightly radiant look though. I don't need to do touch-ups very often!
ConsThe only downside is that the area under my eyes and around my nose can sometimes look a bit uneven when it breaks down. But even then, it's still the best among the products I've used. I only took off one star because there might be an even better product out there!
TipFor those with dry skin, make sure to really focus on your skincare routine before applying this foundation.

I only buy color cosmetics that I can use for over 2 years from department stores, and I always buy basic skincare products that are affordable and suited to my skin type. I also use a lot of foundation each time I do my makeup because I apply it with a brush. (But on weekdays, I just go to work with a bare face, so I only do full makeup about 2 times a month as a homebody who loves makeup.) So I've always been skeptical about whether it's worth spending over 50,000 won on foundation, and what's the difference between drugstore foundations and high-end ones? I've watched a lot of beauty YouTubers' videos too. But since I sweat a lot, on the days I do full makeup, I meticulously follow the steps the beauty YouTubers recommend, including powder application. But it still ends up falling apart... Sigh Moreover, the drugstore foundation I used to use was moisturizing for winter, and even after powder application, if I press my hand on my face, it would leave a mark. But this product has incredible adhesion. Seriously, haha, I was amazed that there's no mark left even if I press my hand on my face. This is not an exaggeration. You'll probably notice in the photo that the color is quite dark. Whenever I change my drugstore foundation, even if I buy shade 23, it's always too light, and the line of demarcation on my neck looks unsightly. Since I prefer a natural-looking skin tone, I deliberately chose a more affordable product with a color similar to my bare skin tone, and I think a slightly lighter shade would have worked too, but I'm still really satisfied. And it adheres smoothly (?) in a thin layer. Seriously!! In the winter, I have dry skin, and in the summer, it becomes oily, but this product is just perfect for someone who prefers a natural skin tone.
ConsThe price and volume, though. Well, even though the price is high and the volume is small, in my case, I only do full makeup 2-3 times a month, so I think it will last me a long time.
TipI haven't tried it with a brush, but I think it wouldn't go well with this product, which hardens immediately after application, since applying with a brush involves loading a lot of product and then gently spreading it out.

Since I prefer a natural skin tone, I'm really happy with it. The coverage is also good.
ConsThe case gets quite dirty and there is a bit of accentuation of flaky skin.

It provides decent coverage and makes the skin tone look brighter, so I recommend it for people with darker skin tones.
ConsSince I used it without a foundation brush, it got all over my hands... A brush is absolutely necessary.
