Dry, cakey makeup? Your skin preparation before makeup doesn’t need to be complicated. 👀

I only use 2 products for my skin prep: a hydrating toner to soften and rehydrate my skin, followed by a lightweight moisturizing cream to lock everything in.

The goal is fresh, hydrated skin that feels slightly sticky — but never greasy — before foundation. Simple, fast, and perfect for my summer makeup routine. ✨

Product used: Celimax Dual Barrier Creamy Toner and Anua PDRN Moisturizing Cream

POV: Your lip combo is also part of your outfit. 🤎✨

*PR Gifts

I used the ENTROPY Charm Tint Blurry in Peach Stone Gem as my base. The shade isn’t normally one I feel very comfortable wearing on its own, but the texture surprised me — it feels really smooth and soft on the lips without feeling dry.

Then I layered Charm Tint Glossy in Water Wood Charm on top, and this is much more me. 🤎 The deeper glossy tone makes the whole lip combo work so much better with my complexion.

But what I like most? They double as bag charms. 😂 Makeup that actually becomes part of my outfit? I’m into it. It’s such a cute little detail that upgrades the whole look.

Which way would you wear them — matte, glossy, or layered together?

Soft Glam Using Chanel Favorites

Kicking off my latest CHANEL beauty picks with two pieces I’ve been reaching for again and again. 🖤

The CHANEL LES 4 OMBRES BOUTONS Multi-Effect Quadra Eyeshadow in 219 Boutons Couture is one of those palettes that makes an everyday eye look feel instantly more polished. And the CHANEL Duo de Baumes? Such a pretty little luxury for adding that effortless touch of glow.

Do you need them? Probably not. 😆 But if you love CHANEL makeup or you’re thinking about adding a little luxury to your collection, these are definitely worth a look.

Which one would you pick—the eyeshadow or the Duo de Baumes? 👀

#ChanelMakeup #ChanelBeauty #LuxuryMakeup #ChanelEyeshadow #SoftGlam

Once these set, they’re NOT moving. 👀

PR Gift 🎁

I’ve been trying the Gen See Mixed Media Liquid Eyeshadows, and this duo is such an easy way to create a polished eye look.

🤎 05 Shroom — Matte
A rich taupe-brown that gives me instant definition.

✨ 02 First Light — Metallic
A luminous champagne that adds just the right amount of shimmer.

The color is intense, waterproof and smudge-proof—and I love how long-lasting they are. They also work especially well if you have oily eyelids.

But here’s the trick: you have to work FAST. 😆 They dry down quickly, so blend as soon as you apply. Once they set, they really SET. You won’t have much luck trying to blend them afterward.

I like using Shroom as my base, blending it out quickly, then tapping First Light on top for dimension. Simple, pretty, and it stays put. ❤️

Would you wear the matte alone or layer the metallic on top?

The cutest little fragrance duo 🌼💚

If you love Marc Jacobs Daisy—or you’ve been curious about Daisy Wild—this mini set is such a cute way to have both.

🌼 Daisy Eau de Toilette — classic, feminine and easy to wear
🌿 Daisy Wild Eau de Parfum — fresher, bolder and gives me that wildflower bouquet feeling

And can we talk about these tiny bottles? 😍 They look just like the full-size versions, which makes this set even more adorable.

Two different Daisy moods in one little box—and the mini size makes them perfect for travel too. ✈️

Which one would you pick: Daisy 🌼 or Daisy Wild 🌿?

I bought this Prada blush so you don’t have to… 💜

I bought this with my own money, so here’s my honest review of the Prada Touch Blush in P36 Wisteria Lilac.

First—the packaging. 😍 It’s beautiful. And because this is a limited-edition shade, I had to get it even though Wisteria Lilac is designed for cool tones and I’m definitely a warm-tone gal. 😂

The texture is lightweight and creamy, blends easily with my fingers, and the color is buildable. I like to tap it onto my cheeks after foundation.

But here’s what surprised me: the lilac actually turns more pinkish on my skin, which works better for my warm complexion because a true purple blush looks awful on me. 😅 If you’re looking for a real lavender blush, though, this might not give you the color you’re expecting.

The only downside for me is the longevity. 5/10. I need several layers and a light dusting of loose powder to help it last longer.

Beautiful packaging? ✔️
Easy to blend? ✔️
True lavender on my skin? Nope. 😂
Worth buying? For me, yes—but mainly because I love the color it turns into on my skin AND that limited-edition Prada packaging got me. 💜

Would you buy a blush even if the shade wasn’t designed for your skin tone?

The 5-Piece Skincare Kit I’m Packing for My Next Trip ✈️

The SKIN1004 skincare travel kit has everything I need for a simple skincare routine on the go—cleansing oil, face wash, toner, ampoule, and soothing cream.

But the Madagascar Centella Ampoule and Soothing Cream are definitely my favorites. The ampoule is lightweight, absorbs quickly without feeling sticky, and gives my skin an extra boost of hydration. The soothing cream feels lightweight and non-greasy while helping keep my skin comfortable and moisturized.

Together, they calm, rehydrate, and soothe my skin perfectly, especially when my skin feels dry or stressed from traveling. 🤍

Everything comes in travel-friendly sizes, so I can bring a complete Centella routine without packing five full-size bottles. Definitely coming with me on my next trip! ✈️

I didn’t expect this numbuzin eye cream to beat Beauty of Joseon 👀

Here’s my honest under-eye cream review for fine lines. And just so you know, I bought all three products with my own money.

I’ve been using numbuzin for almost a month, and the richer, creamier texture really won me over. It contains retinol, NAD+ and 50 peptides. My fine lines aren’t completely gone—I wish! 😅—but my under-eye area definitely looks smoother.

I still like Beauty of Joseon because it helped improve the look of my fine lines too. But during the colder months, it feels a little too light for my dry under-eyes.

When I applied them side by side, the numbuzin side looked smoother and glowier—even on my fingertip. For extra hydration, I like pairing it with Anua PDRN Cream. This little combo has become my current favorite.

Can you see the difference too? Let me know what you think!

POV: Your Dry Lips Finally Found a Lipstick 💋

Lip balm isn’t enough anymore. My lips get dry and chapped, and the lines can look obvious. I want more than hydration—I want COLOR that actually stays and looks pigmented!

So I tried the JUDYDOLL PDRN Stay Shine Lipstick. I tap it on to fill in my lip lines, swipe it on for a juicy shine, and build it up for more color.

It contains Rose PDRN Collagen Essence, plus a dual-layer film designed to lock in the color for a juicy and pigmented finish. And you know what? You can even use the pointed tip to define your lips and make them look fuller.

I tried three shades:

🤎 101 Airy Nude — a soft nude coffee with gold-purple shimmer and a mocha tone

🍑 103 Lively Nude — a clear cinnamon apricot with gold-silver shimmer

🤎 104 Calm Nude — an elegant oolong tea brown

These shades are gorgeous for fall, especially on warm skin tones. 🍂

Hydration, shine, and color that lasts? That’s exactly what my dry, chapped lips need.

The Best Long-Lasting Lipstick That Doesn’t Dry Out My Lips? 💄✨

If you’re looking for Chanel makeup product reviews, you’ve come to the right place! I have two shades of the CHANEL LE ROUGE DUO ULTRA TENUE, and I love them so much.

🤎 69 Tender Beige—a classic nude that goes with almost everything
🍑 192 Coral Pink—a fresh peachy pink that’s perfect for my daily outfits

First, I apply the liquid lip color and wait a few seconds for it to dry. Then I swipe on the clear gloss for a beautiful, mirror-like shine.

The color is long-lasting and smudge-proof, but it doesn’t leave my lips feeling dry. I can still enjoy a glossy finish without constantly worrying about touching up my lipstick!

Which shade would you wear—69 or 192?

The Cutest Peach-Toned Blush Shades 🍑

*PR Gifts

This is the ENTROPY Slide-Up Dough Cheek, a cream-to-powder blush packaged in an adorable Y2K-inspired case that looks like an iPod Nano. It comes with a built-in mirror, making it easy to apply and touch up on the go.

I tried three shades:

🍑 Call Peach—a light peach shade that helps blur the appearance of texture on my skin
🧡 Touch Coral—a true peachy coral that gives my complexion a soft, lively flush
✨ Hug Flash—a glossy, warm golden brown that creates a naturally healthy-looking glow

I layered Call Peach and Touch Coral for a soft, natural peachy cheek look. I also wore Hug Flash alone as both a highlighter and a warm golden blush.

The doughy cream-to-powder texture blends smoothly and helps soften the appearance of my textured skin. You can wear each shade alone or mix and layer them to create different colors and finishes.

To be honest, I’m not crazy about the pigmentation. The shades are quite soft and need to be built up, but the packaging is absolutely adorable! Would you buy it for the colors or the Y2K packaging? 😆

The Chanel Eyeshadow Palette I Didn’t Expect to Love This Much 🤎✨

This is the CHANEL LES 4 OMBRES BOUTONS Multi-Effect Quadra Eyeshadow in 219 Boutons Couture.

It may not be Chanel’s latest 9-shadow palette, but I can already see this becoming one of my makeup staples.

The powder feels fine and soft, yet the pigmentation is surprisingly rich. Every shade is easy to apply and blend, so I can create a polished eye look without much effort. I especially love these warm, elegant tones for a winter makeup look, and the deep brown works beautifully as a softer alternative to black eyeliner.

And can we talk about the embossed button patterns? They look so stunning and elegant that I almost didn’t want to touch them! 😆

It may not be the newest Chanel release, but for me, a beautiful palette that I’ll actually use is always worth more than following the latest trend.

The Best Affordable Korean Highlighter? 🍑✨

I bought the 2aN Pure Glash Highlighter in OR01 Peach Beam, and I’ve been experimenting with different ways to apply it.

When I tap it on with my fingers, it melts nicely into my foundation and gives me a soft, lit-from-within glow. It looks subtle and natural—perfect when I don’t want my highlighter to be too obvious.

But when I use a dense contour brush, I get a completely different result! The peach pigment becomes more noticeable, and the glow looks much more intense.

The cream-to-powder texture also works well over my liquid, cream, and powder foundations without disturbing my base.

Is it a dupe for a high-end highlighter? I wouldn’t say so. But the peachy pigment is pretty, the packaging is adorable, and it’s a great affordable choice if you don’t want to spend too much on a highlighter.

I regret not trying this Heart Percent lip and cheek pot sooner 😅

Heart Percent is famous for its lip liners and tints, but this product, Heart Percent Dote On Mood
Custom Lip & Cheek, really surprised me.

I chose shade 7 Geek and Plum—a beautiful deep red that’s perfect for sun-kissed makeup.

I tap the pudding-like matte shade onto my cheeks for a naturally flushed look. It blends easily, and I can build up the color without making it look too heavy.

Then I use the shiny balm on my lips for a juicy finish. You can also mix the two textures to create intense colors and finishes.

It’s compact, versatile, and surprisingly useful. Would you try this sun-kissed look?

The Best Muted Blush for Warm Skin Tone? 🤎🍑

Looking for Brown and Muted Color Inspiration? I tested 3 Korean-style muted blush shades on my warm skin tone — and they definitely don’t look the same on me!

🤎 Peripera Light Peach — My favorite! The smooth, oil-based formula gives me a beautiful glowy finish, and the peachy beige shade doesn’t disappear on my skin.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 4/5

🩶 Freshian Milky Mocha — Sadly, not for me. The gray-pink undertone looks too muted against my warm skin and almost disappears.
⭐️ 1/5

🌸 AZTK Fig Coffee — A buildable pink-beige blush that gives me a healthy flush. Not my #1, but the price is incredible!
⭐️⭐️⭐️ 3/5

The Best Water-Proof Eyeshadow Stick for Summer? 👀✨

The Excel from Japan Gleam On Fit Shadow glides smoothly across the eyelids, giving them a beautiful shimmer without tugging. But the best part is its waterproof and smudge-proof formula—once it sets, it doesn’t easily rub off or crease.

The slim stick makes application quick and brush-free, while ceramide and squalane help keep the eye area feeling comfortable. Perfect for hot, humid days or whenever you need your eye makeup to last. 💦

Sweet Like Chocolate 🍫🤎 Brown Lips That Flatter Everyone

Brown lips can be soft, glossy and surprisingly cute. 🤎 And brown lip liner shades are perfect for adding definition without making the look feel too heavy.

Inspired by @ninapark’s makeup on Mia for The Odyssey, I created my own version of those beautiful brown, mirror-like lips using a matte lipstick + juicy lip oil.

🍫 JOOCYEE Brown Shade Velvet Rouge #1990 Vintage Brown
A velvety matte brown that gives me the rich chocolate base. Dab it on to fill in the lip lines, then swipe for more color intensity.

✨ rom&nd Juicy Flash Lip Oil #07 Coco Bomb
A nourishing lip oil with a crystal-clear oil base that creates ultra-reflective, sugar-coated shine while smoothing the look of fine lip lines.

The lightweight formula contains Juicy Hyaluronic Acid Complex to keep dry lips hydrated, smooth and plump-looking.

My little trick: instead of using a separate brown lip liner shade, I use the tip of the lip oil applicator along the lip line for extra definition. 🍫✨

Matte brown + juicy shine = my kind of chocolate lips. 🤎

CHANEL DUO DE BAUMES Review ✨ Worth the Hype?

I completely understand why this sold out.

I picked up the CHANEL Duo de Baumes in Korea, and it quickly became one of my favorite limited-edition CHANEL makeup products.

The blush has a gorgeous, intense color payoff, but it’s surprisingly buildable and easy to blend, so you can go from a soft daytime flush to a bolder evening look without any patchiness.

The gold highlighter is equally beautiful. It adds a soft, luminous glow to the cheekbones, nose, and even the lips without looking glittery. I love wearing it on its own during the day or layering it over the blush for a more radiant evening makeup look.

Another feature I love is how versatile it is. You can use the blush on both your cheeks and lips, then finish with the highlighter for that effortless CHANEL glow.

It’s such a clever two-in-one product, and I’m so glad I managed to find one before it went out of stock.

Would you like CHANEL to bring this limited edition back? 💕

Easy Winged Eyeliner for Hooded Eyes ✨

If you’ve been struggling with winged eyeliner, this simple trick might help!

I lift my upper eyelid with the end of a makeup brush, line my lashes, flick the liner upward, and fill in the gaps between my lashes. It only takes a few simple steps.

I’m using the Canmake Creamy Touch Liner in 01 Black on my upper eyelids and 15 on my lower lash line. The ultra-fine tip makes it easy to control, so it’s great for beginners. Plus, it’s creamy, waterproof, and smudge-proof, making it one of my favorite makeup eyeliners for everyday wear.

Have you tried the Canmake Creamy Touch Liner? Which shade is your favorite? 💕

One of the Best Velvet Matte Lipsticks I’ve Ever Tried! 💄

This lipstick has been all over my FYP, so I finally gave it a try!

The Joocyee Velvet Rouge in 1990 Vintage Brown has one of the softest velvet matte textures I’ve tried. It glides on effortlessly, gives my lips a naturally blurred finish, and feels surprisingly comfortable.

The best part? It stayed transfer-proof during my tissue test and even held up after the water test. 👀

Would I repurchase it? Absolutely! ❤️

✨ This Dior Highlighter Looks Even Better in Person

I don’t think the camera can fully capture how beautiful the Dior Backstage Highlighter Balm in Glazed Mint really is.

The balm is infused with delicate pink, blue, and lilac shimmer that catches the light beautifully, creating a soft, luminous glow instead of an overly glittery finish.

I like tapping it onto my skin with my fingers or applying it directly from the stick for the best payoff. One tip—I don’t recommend using a brush because it doesn’t pick up enough product.

If you love a natural, healthy-looking glow, this Dior makeup product is definitely worth checking out. It’s subtle, elegant, and gives the skin that effortless lit-from-within finish.

Everyone's talking about Zendaya's makeup... and you don't need to be a makeup artist to recreate it.

Her makeup is all about sun-kissed blush, a glowy finish, and the no-mascara trend. Here's my take.

Since my skin can look dull with too much bronzer and dark blush, I use a contour stick and a plum blush instead.

First, apply a glowy foundation. Then use a contour stick on the top of the forehead, the sides of the cheeks, the chin, and the nose.

Tap the blush onto the cheeks and across the nose to create a sun-kissed look.

Lightly tap loose powder over areas with visible pores, but avoid the cheeks to keep the glow.

Zendaya's lips have more of a semi-matte finish, but I prefer a glossy finish for my dry lips. After applying a matte lipstick, I top it with a lip oil. The tip of the applicator also works beautifully as a lip liner.

For my eyes, I keep everything natural—a beige shade in the crease, then blend the beige and shimmer across the lids. Apply a medium brown to the outer corners and softly smudge it toward the inner corners.

Add a dark brown close to the lash line and under the eyes for a softer, more dimensional look.

No eyeliner, but I did use a little mascara for my straight eyelashes.

To finish, I tap a little highlighter on my nose, cheeks, and chin for extra glow.

This is my version of Zendaya's makeup, and you don't need to be a makeup artist to recreate it.

✨ Glossy or Matte Lips? Why Not Both?

*Self Purchased Item

Looking for a lip gloss that does more than just add shine?

The Heart Percent Dote on Mood Custom Lip & Cheek combines a glossy lip balm and a matte lip & cheek color in one compact, so you don't have to choose between glossy or matte lips.

💕 What I love: • 2 textures in one case – glowy balm + matte fog pot • Use it on your lips, cheeks, eyes, or even your collarbones • Blend, layer, or wear each shade on its own for a customized look • Smooth, seamless application with buildable pigmentation

My experience? The packaging is so clever, making it easy to carry and touch up throughout the day. The pigmentation is just right—not too sheer and not too intense—so it's perfect for everyday makeup. I love using each side on its own or layering them together for a more dimensional look.

And the price? Honestly, it's hard to beat.

BeautyKat Verdict: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (Holy Grail)
 Will I repurchase it? Definitely! 💕

✨ Don't Buy rom&nd Lippies Until You Watch This! 💋

I've been testing two of the newest rom&nd lippies, and here's my honest verdict! 👇

💧 rom&nd Juicy Flash Lip Oil – (4.5⭐/5)

If you have dry or chapped lips, this lip oil is definitely worth trying. The oil-based formula feels lightweight while keeping my lips soft and hydrated all day. 💖

✨ What I love:
• Super moisturizing
• No bleeding
• Smooth, glossy finish
• Perfect for layering over lipsticks or lip tints

The only thing I wish? I wish it had stronger pigmentation or a sparkly version so I wouldn't need to pair it with another lip product. But overall, it's a great everyday lip oil for dry lips!

🌸 rom&nd Glasting Color Gloss S01 Peach Sparkle – (4.8⭐/5)

I'm completely obsessed with this one! 🤩 The tiny sparkles are so pretty and mesmerizing, and they instantly make my lips look fuller—even without a plumping lip gloss (which I avoid because I hate the stinging sensation 😅).

✨ Why I love it:
💖 Gorgeous high-shine finish
✨ Beautiful shimmer
💋 Fuller-looking lips
🌿 Moisturizing botanical oils
🙌 Non-sticky formula

My only complaint? I wish rom&nd released more shades and made them easier to find in the US. So far, I've only spotted them in Japan and on YesStyle.

Makeup Men Won’t Notice (But You’ll Look So Much Better ✨)

Sometimes the best makeup isn’t the makeup everyone notices—it’s the kind that simply makes you look fresh, polished, and effortlessly put together.

For this natural everyday look, I used the techniques I learned in Korea together with some of my favorite K-beauty products:

🤎 Jung Saem Mool Artist Eye Palette – Orange Brown for soft, natural definition
✨ JUNG SAEM MOOL Essential Mool Micro Fitting Mist to help keep my makeup looking fresh
🖌️ Jung Saem Mool Makeup Brushes for a seamless blend
🖤 CANMAKE Creamy Touch Liner (Black) to subtly define the eyes without looking harsh
👀 Maybelline Sky High Mascara (Asia Version) for long, fluttery lashes

The goal isn’t to look like you’re wearing more makeup—it’s to look like the best version of yourself. I love this look because it’s effortless, elegant, and perfect for everyday wear, especially if you prefer natural makeup.

Would you wear this makeup look, or do you prefer something more glam?

Best Lip Oil? I Didn’t Expect rom&nd to Be This Good! 💖

If you have dry lips like I do, these rom&nd lip oils have quickly become some of my favorites.

✨ rom&nd Juicy Flash Lip Oil
💜 06 Grape Fig
🌸 F03 Soy Peony

The formula feels lightweight but deeply nourishing, giving my lips a beautiful glass-like shine without feeling sticky. It smooths the look of lip lines while the Juicy Hyaluronic Acid Complex helps keep my lips hydrated and comfortable throughout the day.

I love wearing them on their own for naturally glossy lips, but they’re also perfect layered over lipstick or lip tint to prevent dryness and cracking.

And can we talk about the last shade in this video? 😍

✨ rom&nd Glasting Color Gloss S01 Peach Sparkle

It’s the prettiest peachy-pink gloss with delicate sparkles that makes my lips look fuller, plumper, and incredibly glowy. I am absolutely obsessed!

If you’re looking for the best lip oil for dry lips or a glossy lip product that gives you hydrated, juicy-looking lips, these are definitely worth checking out.

YSL TOUCHE ÉCLAT GLOW-PACT CUSHION in B20 (available in Asia)
⭐ BeautyKat Rating: 4.5/5 (Highly Recommend)
✨ Medium to full coverage
🌞 SPF50
💧 Buildable formula

CLIO Kill Cover Mesh Glow Cushion in 24W Sand
⭐ BeautyKat Rating: 4.3/5 (Worth Trying)

✨ My Verdict

🥇 JUNG SAEM MOOL – My top pick! It offers the best balance of natural finish, buildable medium-to-full coverage, SPF50 protection, great shade match, and excellent value for money.

🥈 YSL – Delivers the most luxurious healthy glow and beautifully smooths the look of fine lines. I rated it 4.5/5 because it’s more expensive, only available in Asia, and comes in a limited shade range.

If you’re in the U.S. or looking for more shade options, the new YSL Skin Affair Soft Glow Cushion Foundation may be a better alternative.

🥉 CLIO – A great budget-friendly mesh cushion with a beautiful glowy finish. It’s perfect for dehydrated skin and makeup beginners who prefer light-to-medium coverage.

If you’re looking for a luxury foundation alternative or wondering what foundation to use, I hope this honest comparison helps!

My Favorite Summer Makeup Products for a Natural Glow ☀️✨

PR and Self Purchased Items

Looking for an effortless summer glow? These are the summer makeup products I've been reaching for lately to create a fresh, radiant look that's perfect for warm weather.

✨ Yves Saint Laurent Touche Éclat Glow-Pact Cushion SPF50+/PA++++ (B20 Ivory) – Medium to high coverage with SPF50 protection. It gives my skin a beautiful glow without emphasizing my fine lines or large pores, making it a great option for mature skin.

🌸 Basma The Cream Blush (Mauve) – A natural, lit-from-within cream blush that's perfect for an everyday makeup look.

✨ Excel Loose Powder (Japan) – One of my favorite Japanese drugstore makeup products. The powder is incredibly fine, and I only wish it were easier to find in the U.S.

🍑 Dior Backstage Rosy Glow Blush (106 Pomelo) – Adds a beautiful glowy finish and is perfect for layering. The only downside is that the pigmentation is a little too subtle for my preference.

🌟 Dior Backstage Glow Maximizer Palette (001 Universal Glow) – The gel-to-powder texture brightens my complexion and gives my skin a healthy, radiant glow. I absolutely love it!

🤎 CLIO Pro Eye Palette Air II (Shopping Cheese) – Soft, natural pigmentation that's typical of K-beauty. It's easy to layer, the shimmer shades are beautiful, and the packaging is absolutely adorable.

🖤 Canmake Creamy Touch Liner (01 Black) – Long-lasting, waterproof, smudge-proof, and incredibly easy to apply. My only complaint? Once you twist it up, it can't be twisted back down, and I go through one in about a month because I use it every day!

👁️ Maybelline Lash Sensational Sky High Mascara (Asian Version) – My go-to mascara for long, lifted lashes that stay curled all day.

These are some of my favorite summer makeup tricks for achieving a fresh, natural glow without feeling heavy.

✨ Trying a High-End Cushion Foundation… Is It Worth It? ✨

Self Purchased

I’ve been trying the YSL Touche Éclat Glow-Pact Cushion, YSL’s first mesh cushion foundation from the iconic cushion family focused on creating that natural, healthy glow.

This cushion delivers high coverage with all-day comfort, while making the skin look instantly lit-up, even-toned, and radiant. It also offers 24-hour hydration and comes in six glowing shades uniquely chosen to suit Asian skin tones.

I have to admit… I used way too much in this video! 😅 I had to use a clean puff to tap off the excess, but once I did, my skin looked radiant without exaggerating my pores.

Would I recommend it? Yes—especially if you have combination to dry skin and love a glowy, healthy-looking finish. It’s not a long-lasting, oil-control foundation, but I enjoy using it because it keeps my skin looking dewy without emphasizing my fine lines or pores.

Compared to other Western high-end cushion foundations, I also think it’s reasonably priced. I bought mine in Japan, and the product is made in Korea, which makes me wonder… could there be one of the best cushion foundations from K-Beauty that’s a perfect dupe? Stay tuned! 💕

Have you tried this one, or do you have a favorite mesh cushion foundation?

No one is talking about these Jung Saem Mool K-Beauty palettes, but they’re so good!

I didn’t realize that until I attended a makeup class in Korea.

I’m already a big fan of their cushion foundation, but I never expected their eyeshadow and shading palettes to become my everyday makeup staples.

The powder is finely milled, the shimmer is subtle and elegant, and the pigmentation is just right. You can easily build up the color for a more glamorous look or keep it soft for a natural no-makeup makeup look—all without paying a premium price.

10/10. I highly recommend them!

Armani Luminous Silk vs Dior Forever: Which Is Better?

Today, I’m comparing Armani Luminous Silk and Dior Forever Skin Glow to see which foundation actually survived the heat.

Let’s start with Dior Forever Skin Glow.

This foundation blends beautifully into the skin and gives that effortless “my skin but better” finish.

However, during hot and humid weather, my combination skin becomes oilier throughout the day, and I noticed that the foundation oxidized more easily. It made me wonder if there was another foundation that would perform better in the summer.

That’s when I decided to revisit Armani Luminous Silk.

I loved the original formula, but this new version completely won me over.

I’m wearing shade 5, which is described as a light neutral pink shade. But instead of looking pink on my skin, it brightens my slightly dull, yellow-toned complexion and gives me a natural, skin-like finish. It’s luminous, but not overly glowy.

The coverage is also better than Dior’s. Most importantly, it stays on my skin longer and lasts better than Dior in humid weather.

Looking at both foundations side by side, you can see that they share a similar luminous finish.

Both shades lean slightly pink, but Armani appears more neutral on my skin, while Dior looks a little rosier.

Dior gives me a glowing complexion.

Armani delivers a smoother, more refined finish that feels better for summer.

So, which one would I choose for summer? Definitely Armani.

The coverage is higher, the wear time is better, and it stays comfortable without looking dry or heavy.

That said, I still love Dior. When my skin looks more tired and dry, Dior gives me a soft, radiant, and hydrated finish.

Both foundations are suitable for combination to dry skin. However, keep in mind that neither is designed for oil control or a matte finish.
