What it is
#1 "Classic" comes with a dedicated brush. This shading boasts an overwhelming market share in Korea, and is known as the "national shading." It is popular as a small-face shading that creates natural shadows that suit your skin. Its unique feature is that it mixes three colors to create a delicate, natural gradation effect. It is also a multi-shading that can be used not only on the face, but also on the nose, eyebrows, and under-eye bags. Byrodan Shading #1 "Classic" is a shading recommended for those with healthy, warm-toned skin tones, and is effective for natural colors with less redness and delicate contouring. *As of September 2024

I bought Modern as a shadow color. I don't need the brush that comes with it, so I think it would sell better if it was a little cheaper. It's a three-color gradient, but looking at the palette, the middle color seems too reddish for a natural gradient. It's not that noticeable when you apply it, so it's fine. It's neither good nor bad, so I was able to use it safely.
The natural shadow color is just right. It's a little sensitive to rubbing from the mask. I appreciated that it came with a small shading brush.
I'm new to shading. I use it on my face line. The color is natural and easy to adjust, even for someone like me who isn't very good at shading. It's easy to use. I have warm skin tones, and the color matches perfectly, so I like it. It wears off slowly, so it's good value for money.
It blends well with my warm skin tone and is easy to use! I like how it comes with a brush, which is a great value and easy to use. It's convenient because you can mix multiple colors and use different colors. I'll definitely buy it again.
It's so easy to use on the face line and nose bridge that I keep buying it again and again.
