What it is
It blurs pores with pinpoint precision, and has the double effect of smoothing the skin as if it were covered with frosted glass, covering unevenness and blackheads. By smoothing the skin, foundation applied on top will also have a beautiful finish without any unevenness. The base spreads smoothly and fits the skin after application, changing into a smooth texture. The sebum-absorbing powder suppresses excess sebum, maintaining smooth skin that is less prone to shininess.

It does get shiny, but if you wipe it off with tissue it goes back to normal. I wonder if it will last through the summer...
I was looking for a primer to combat pores on the sides of my nose, so I bought this. Until now, I'd been using a pore base from another brand. I've only just started using this, but it seems good! Since I only use it on the sides of my nose, it lasts a long time, so I'm glad that a small amount is enough. It's smooth and makes my open nostrils less noticeable, so I'll try using up the whole bottle first.
I use it on uneven areas, mainly my nose. It makes my skin smooth and even, making it easier to apply foundation. It can also be used to touch up makeup. I carry it with me during the day.
If you add it on top of the oily part, it will return to its original smooth texture, and if you add it at the beginning, it won't be as oily.
I just started using it, but my pores are no longer a concern.
