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 used it for almost 2 years. But the store closed, so I'm currently using Mac products now. People have told me that my skin looks more supple and healthy than when I was using the expensive Mac products!
ConsThere wasn't really any downside that I can think of! But I guess I'll have to buy another one once I finish the Mac one.

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.

It's a BB cream that is moisturizing and has a natural-looking coverage. It has a similar feel to the BB creams used in dermatological treatments.^^
ConsI don't recommend this for people with a yellowish skin tone. Even a slight yellow undertone can give a slightly uneven look. The coverage is somewhat low, so I don't recommend this for oily skin types.
TipConsider this as a base and layer a cushion or foundation on top for better coverage and tone correction.^^

There weren't many troubles either, and even though it's just a basic BB cream, it provides a solid skincare routine, so it's not drying and I liked it. It covers redness well, and it's generally okay to use as a regular BB cream...?
ConsThe ingredients ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ It's the same as Descartes, but this one has 6 sensitive ingredients, so it's really ㅎㄷㄷ... I didn't get any breakouts, but depending on the person, you might get troubles, so look closely before purchasing. And I felt like it didn't pair well with the cushion puff. I don't have a brush, so I just used the puff to apply, and it was a bit... Yes, that's how it is. It might be better if you use a different tool to apply it ㅠ

ConsWhen applied with a puff, it doesn't seem to adhere well, which is disappointing. There don't seem to be any other downsides.
TipI recommend the following order: Skin Toner > Lotion (Generously) > Moisturizing Cream > Sunscreen > BB Cream.

The ingredients were good, and it was runny so it applied well.
ConsIt didn't seem to suit my skin, as I developed a few pimples, and for those with a lot of flaky skin, it may show up too much, so I don't recommend it.

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.
