It doesn't cause any darkening and the shade 1.5 makes the complexion look bright and natural, making me reach for it often. However, when I need a more polished makeup look, I use a foundation.
ConsYou should apply sunscreen. Using it without sunscreen may make the expression look prettier.
TipThe standout feature of this product is that it applies well even with a casual application!

You'll understand then. Yes, I've only used cheap foundations so far, but I finally gathered the courage to buy an expensive one, and it's not just an expensive product for no reason. Ah, I'm going to stick with it. Thank you, Jomen🙏🏻 ✔️It applies thinly ✔️It has good coverage, but those with a lot of trouble spots will need a concealer ✔️It has a semi-matte formula ✔️It looks pretty when applied with the hands, but the combination with a sponge is great ✔️It has a slightly yellow tone, so please keep that in mind ✔️If you usually use shade 21, shade 1.5 will likely suit you well ✔️It has good staying power ✔️Even when wearing a mask, only the areas that touch the mask peel off, and the rest stays well
ConsThere isn't any yet. If any issues come up while using it, I'll come back and write about them.
TipIt's so much better when applied with a sponge than with the hands. That thin, smooth application feeling is just so good ㅠㅠ I love it.

It's just barely there, not fully applied. The color is also not very bright. There's almost no tone-up effect, just a bit of skin texture improvement. Compared to other foundation shades, it doesn't seem too dark, but the thin application means the tone-up effect isn't strong. For those with just redness and no major blemishes, this could work well naturally. As someone with a lot of blemishes, I ended up applying another foundation or cushion on top. There was a bit of a yellow tone to it, and while it had a dewy, water droplet look when first applied, it became more powdery overall when spread out. I bought this based on a YouTuber's recommendation, but it doesn't seem to have much benefit for me. Even with thin application, having to layer it makes it problematic. And without any UV protection, there's really no point in using it.
ConsLacks coverage... Only recommended for those who really want an extremely natural look or have great skin already. It's the kind of foundation you'd wear when visiting your parents, haha.

It's moist and absorbing, and the coverage isn't extremely thick, but I'm okay with it.
ConsThere's nothing disappointing, but if I had to say one thing, it would be that you gave me a slightly brighter color.. You'll be releasing a 0 for #13 and a 1 for #21 as well, right..?
TipIt blends in well even when patting it on with my hands.

It applies quite smoothly and thinly. It's somewhere between a foundation and a BB cream. Since I have dry, very thin skin with a lot of fine lines, it felt like it filled in the fine lines well after applying it. There's no dryness either. I debated between shades 1.5 and 3, and I think I made a good choice. I have around 19 shade skin with redness, so I usually avoid pink-toned shades, but I chose 1.5 as it's a bit brighter. In reality, 1.5 is close to a neutral tone. It's an ivory color leaning towards yellow, which I actually like.
ConsIt's not as moisturizing as I expected. After applying it, it finishes with a powdery feel (applied by hand). It's not dry or anything, but it might be difficult to expect a glowy or that kind of finish.

I'm in shade 19. • Usage: I want to achieve a natural, understated look without looking overly made up. • Color: The most natural-looking shade. The advantage is that when applied lightly, it looks just like my own skin. • Texture: A soft, powdery texture.
ConsThe powdery texture requires more careful application, so it's a bit of a hassle.
TipI think I'll use this when I want a 'summer + very natural-looking' look. Compared to the Amuse cushion, the powdery texture is better suited for achieving an understated look on hot days.

I had previously used foundations from Dior and Saint Laurent, but this was the best foundation in terms of skin expression. It doesn't have great coverage, but it looks natural and makes my skin texture look beautiful. It's a shame that I can't use it regularly because my skin reacts badly to it.
ConsI really, really love the product!!!!!! I normally don't get acne, but when I use this, my whole face breaks out in little bumps, almost like a case of folliculitis. In the end, I can't use it because it doesn't agree with my skin. I'm so frustrated with how it reacts to my skin ㅠㅠㅠㅠ

It's not a high-coverage product, but I don't mind since I'm not looking for heavy coverage either. I have skin that often breaks out, but this product doesn't completely hide blemishes, which makes my skin look lighter and healthier instead. It doesn't give an overly made-up look, so it looks more natural and cool. It's also very easy to apply and wear throughout the day.
ConsThe lack of UV protection is the biggest downside. In the winter when it's windy, my old blemish marks tend to show through, making my skin look more uneven and messy, which is disappointing.

Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsThe base that usually comes out the brightest is used. It appears pale next to a yellow-toned skin and slightly yellowish on a reddish skin, with a slightly olive-toned complexion. Although I didn't use foundation much due to lack of skills, this foundation is easy to use even without special application skills. Despite the low coverage, it fills in the pores quite well and doesn't get messy in the pores over time. It applies thinly and lightly, with no uneven texture. It's not very darkening and has good lasting power. If you wear a mask for a long time, it does fade a bit, but it doesn't break down messily and just seems to disappear slightly. The mask transfer is also less than other products. I bought both shade 3 and 1.5, and 3 is great for those who like a natural look (22 skin tone), while 1.5 is recommended for those who like a bright, radiant look (21 skin tone). I prefer the radiant look, so I use 1.5. The clear, luminous shade doesn't interfere with the color of the color cosmetics, so the makeup looks nice on top. When squeezed onto the hand, it has a yellow tone and looks the lightest, but on the face, it's different. (Close to dry combination skin) The semi-matte formula doesn't feel drying. Most importantly, it doesn't cause any breakouts, so I'm using it really well. I hope the product doesn't get discontinued or reformulated, as it's exactly what I wanted.
ConsIt doesn't contain any UV protection ingredients, so you need to apply sunscreen properly.
TipI'm using it with the Fillimilli wedge sponge sold at Olive Young, and I feel they work well together. I apply it thinly first, then just dab on a bit more in areas that need more coverage. If the makeup seems to fade a little after wearing a mask for a long time, just gently pat it and it's fine.

The store recommended shades 1.5 and 2, and I chose the yellow-based 1.5 shade. When I swatched it on the back of my hand, it looked quite dark, and I thought 'Oh no, did I buy the wrong one?'. But when I blended it out, it became much lighter - a clear ivory shade. The texture is quite fluid, like a cream. My skin wasn't in the best condition, but it applied nicely. Even though I wore a mask all day, laughed, talked, and sweated a bit, my skin still looked good! I'm not sure if it wears down beautifully or just wears off nicely... I tried applying it with my fingers too, and it went on very smoothly and thinly everywhere except around my nose. The store staff told me to apply it like a cream, and it really does work that way! Compared to how moisturizing it feels, it's not overly oily.
ConsThe coverage is really quite poor. If you want to cover a lot, this won't work. I wore sunscreen, foundation, and powder, and it still transferred quite a bit onto my mask. But considering how much I was laughing and talking, I guess that's still pretty decent. Compared to the matte, long-wearing foundations, this does have more transfer. The darkening isn't too bad, though. It's only 35ml, not 50ml, and it's in a tube, so the packaging cost is probably less. But 58,000 won? Really?!
