Pros
This is a fall warm-toned foundation in shade 23. The longevity is good! It doesn't make the skin feel dry and is quite satisfactory. It covers blemishes naturally well. There are no breakouts after using the product. It's great! It pairs well with a spatula. This is a versatile matte foundation that's good for everyday use. It's not too expensive compared to department store brands, and the cost-effectiveness is really good!
Cons
About 10 minutes after application, the color becomes a bit darker. It looked natural at first, but it gets darker over time. ㅠㅠ Since the product has an overall yellow base, it may appear a bit yellow on cool-toned individuals.
Tip
If NC20 is too bright for shade 23 users, I recommend buying both and mixing them to use!

Pros
I'm using the #23 shade of the Jiseung Winter Dark foundation. After searching for a long-lasting and blemish-free foundation, I decided to try the MAC one based on recommendations, and I'm really pleased with it. The coverage is good and the longevity is great.
Cons
I was quite surprised that the foundation was too yellow on my skin. My face is much darker and more pigmented than the inside of my arm, so while the tone is okay, it's too yellow, and I have to mix it with other pink-based foundations to make it look more natural and seamless. The MAC foundations in general tend to run quite yellow, and this line in particular is especially yellow-toned.
Tip
The first photo is taken with a Galaxy S22 Plus, and the second photo is taken with an iPhone 12 Mini. My face is much darker and more pigmented than the inside of my arm, so when I apply the foundation to my face, it ends up looking much brighter.

Pros
I have oily skin. These days, I also have to wear a mask, and when I put on makeup, it tends to transfer onto the mask. Other brand foundations don't seem to apply thinly, so I was looking for a foundation that applies thinly, and I found a MAC product. I heard that the MAC product applies thinly, so I purchased it and tried it out... It applies thinly and there is less transfer onto the mask, so I was really happy with it~
Cons
When you purchase a foundation, they usually provide a pump, but with the MAC product, you have to purchase the pump separately, which was a bit disappointing.
Tip
For oily skin types, I would recommend applying the Hwahae Trial Reviewer primer and then applying the foundation, which should work well.

Pros
The adhesion and spreadability are satisfactory, and it seems to be able to express a natural skin texture. You only need to pump it once moderately, as using too much can make it feel stuffy.
Cons
I wouldn't recommend it if you're looking for high coverage. It seems to have the advantage of a natural application, but if you don't set it with powder, it can transfer easily.

Pros
I purchased the NC25 shade and it's truly... the best! I was looking for a foundation that would suit my olive-toned skin, and I heard great things about MAC foundations, so I chose it - and it's absolutely amazing. It creates a smooth, clean-looking complexion with a velvety, matte finish that feels like a second skin. The lasting power is incredible, as it hardly fades even after 12 hours, and it beautifully blends into the skin when it slightly melts from sweat. It's truly perfect in every way. The coverage is amazing, and it barely transfers onto the inside of my mask. And most importantly, the color match is spot on. If you have an olive skin tone, I highly recommend the NC line. Even if you don't, you should try the SFF - it's incredible...
Cons
I couldn't find any flaws or downsides to speak of.
Tip
In my experience, the Ruby Cell Air Puff works best with the SFF foundation, rather than a brush or sponge. Just dispense 0.2 pumps onto the back of your hand, feed it into the air puff, and gently dab it onto your face for a poreless, airbrushed finish.

Pros
I've tried all kinds of other products, but I haven't found a friend with the same great coverage and lasting power as this one.. I'm going back to my trusted road shop.
Cons
The container is a bit difficult to use up completely... haha The fact that you have to give up on some of it

Pros
It's smooth when applied. The coverage is not bad either.
Cons
There is a strange smell. Factory smell? It seems to dissipate over time, but it's not great anyway.
Tip
No pump. The color appears a little darker than the Lauramerce Macadamia shade I used before, but there's not much difference when applied.

Pros
The biggest advantage is that it provides high coverage and makes my skin look naturally good!! The wide range of color options allows me to choose the perfect shade for myself💖
Cons
It dries quickly, so I have to apply it quickly, but other than that, I'm satisfied,!
Tip
The recently hot🔥 #24-hour Fix Makeup This is the MAC Studio Fix Fluid Foundation〰️ It has been released in a total of 24 shades, with 15 new colors added for Asian women✨ It's somewhere between semi-matte and fully matte,! I recommend it to those who like a powdery foundation, and it pairs better with a pore brush than a flat brush~!

Pros
It's lightweight and glides on smoothly. The skin condition doesn't get easily irritated, and it applies well even with a heavy hand. It comes in various shades. They recently released the NC27 shade, and I plan to transition to that one. Good coverage and lasting power.
Cons
As everyone has mentioned, the scent and the pump dispenser need to be purchased separately (I use a 30ml pump dispenser from Daiso that costs around 1,000 won).

Pros
The makeup is as soft and sticky as glutinous rice cakes, and the coverage is also very good.💕
Cons
Recently, I've started getting some flakes on my nose. The flakes and whiteheads are really visible, and it's been stressing me out.ㅠㅜ
