  Pros

  There was absolutely no darkening. It stayed bright and radiant all day long.

  Cons

  There's really nothing disappointing about it. I'm using it quite satisfactorily.

  Tip

  By layering it thinly with a spatula, it became nicely set despite being a moisturizing foundation!

  Pros

  The biggest advantage is that it excludes harmful ingredients and has a gentle base with safe ingredients. It also caught my attention because it is certified as having no animal testing and no animal-derived ingredients. I signed up and received a sample kit, but the sample colors didn't suit me. The C0 was too pale for me and the N1 was too yellow, so I ended up purchasing the N0 which seemed to be in the middle. The color suits me well. It's not the best, but it looks natural! It has a slightly hazy, luminous ivory tone, and when applied, it looks natural. The texture is not very thick, and the glow is not as intense as I expected. It's not exactly moisturizing, but it's not dry either. The adhesion and fixing power are decent, but not extremely strong. It doesn't completely cover, but it evens out the skin tone a bit, like a tone-up cream. Once it's all applied, it just looks like my own skin, like right after washing my face with just sunscreen on. I think this would be satisfying for someone who wants a comfortable, burden-free daily base rather than a perfectly covering, long-lasting foundation. As someone who values comfort and safety, I'm satisfied! I usually just wear sunscreen when going out, and only occasionally feel like putting on cushion foundation, but then I feel like my face looks strange, so I quickly wash it off and just apply a tone-up cream again. If you're like me, this might be a good option for you!

  Cons

  I think it would be easier to compare and choose if you could select the 6 sample kit colors yourself. I inferred that the N0 would be a good match for me since I'm neither C0 nor N1, but I wasn't completely confident about it until I actually unboxed it. If you apply the foundation unevenly, it can sometimes create a powdery, cakey appearance. If while using this product, you find yourself thinking "I want to layer it more, I want to use layering techniques to increase the coverage," then it might be better to choose a different product with higher coverage.

  Tip

  Although I wrote a somewhat critical review, this is actually the best foundation I've ever used (and I've only bought a few in my lifetime). I didn't expect it to perform this well, given that it's free of harmful ingredients, animal testing, and animal-derived materials. I often have the preconception that products with a strong "vegan" marketing focus tend to lack in actual product quality. But this brand has managed to break through that bias I had - they've truly delivered.
