OSAJI Individual Skin Foundation Refill (02)

It's a natural semi-matte finish. It doesn't feel thick, which is nice. The puff is certainly hard, but you don't use it by sliding it around, you apply it by tapping the sponge side on. It's a powder, but it sticks to your skin like a cushion. It's easier to apply if it's dry. The brushed side is convenient for touch-ups. I used Osaji BB as a base, but I'd like to try different products. It doesn't crumble in any weird way, so I might buy it again. Both the puff and the powder are unique to Osaji.

When it was first released, I bought the case and two puffs, but the puffs were too harsh and didn't stick well, causing some stinging, so I didn't use it much. However, when I tried using it again with a softer puff, it was a very smooth, semi-matte finish, and once it blended in, it gave my cheeks a radiant glow. I liked the texture, so I started using it again, and now that I've finally run out, I've decided to buy it again! I love it!

I'm raising my rating. From 3 to 6 stars. Changing my application method resulted in a beautiful finish. The key is using face powder after primer (which I skipped last time). Keeping my skin smooth with this, the Face Duo applied evenly and provided decent coverage—a bit of a culture (makeup) shock (lol)! It's also natural-looking, yet still looks beautiful. It's not powdery at all. It's more on the semi-matte side, which I like, but because it feels natural, it's not overly formal and I think most people will be satisfied. It lasts well and the color doesn't sink in. That disappointment from last time is long gone. Sorry for jumping to conclusions, Osaji! I've come to realize that Osaji is great in every way. If it's this beautiful, I think it could stand up to being used alone. See my first review here: Osaji's appeal lies in its nuanced color payoff. This foundation is also quite sheer. I'm not good at applying makeup with a sponge, so I use Shiseido's Face Duo to layer it over my liquid foundation. It creates a nice, foggy look. However, when I applied this foundation alone, it was thin and a little uneven. Perhaps because the powder contains oil, it clumps easily. I gave up using a brush and used the Rosie Rosa Multi-Foundation Puff several times before I could finally notice that I was wearing foundation. I could have used the included sponge, but perhaps my inability to properly use the different textures on each side was the problem. The particles aren't particularly fine, and while it looks good from a distance, it feels a little lacking in smoothness up close. The color also seems to fade somewhat over time. This foundation seems to be suitable for those with very fair skin who prefer to wear a foundation. While I have almost no skin problems, I also like full coverage, so it would probably be better to use it as a face powder instead. It's a shame, as it's designed for sensitive skin, doesn't irritate my skin, and is comfortable to use. I love Osaji, but I don't think I'll be repurchasing this one.

This foundation creates an exquisitely sheer, porcelain-like complexion. Although it's called a foundation, it doesn't provide coverage with color, but rather creates texture. If you're looking for full coverage, I wouldn't recommend it. Its functionality lies somewhere between powder and foundation. It's perfect for natural makeup. Its beautiful, natural texture, reminiscent of Shiseido's "No Color Foundation" from long ago, is addictive. The included sponge is firm but not irritating. This sponge works incredibly well. It's perfect when you want to control your texture. I love how it's easy to apply to even skin, perfect for cotton, wool, and cashmere tops. It has a unique texture that no other brand can match. Concealer is essential, and it's a foundation that requires careful touch-ups. Still, it has a special texture that makes it a daily favorite, surpassing the many high-coverage foundations available. It's gentle on the skin, so I recommend it for those who struggle with foundation or those who don't like foundation and rely on a primer and powder for their base makeup.
