ABOUT_TONE Skin Layer Fit Foundation 30ml (Set/Single) (8 Shades)

The Gist

The ABOUT_TONE Skin Layer Fit Foundation 30ml (Set/Single) (8 Shades) is a fluid gel foundation designed to provide comprehensive coverage. The brand markets its “3 Layer Fitting System” which uses spherical powder to blur textures, quadruple film formers for a smooth layer, and lightweight oil for a flat, light application. It is also infused with 66% skincare ingredients, including Avena Sativa (Oat) Protein Extract, Ceramide, and low molecular Hyaluronic Acid, aiming for a feather-light blend.

What Korean reviewers say

Olive Young Global shoppers rate this foundation highly at 4.7/5 across 493 reviews. Korean consumers frequently report exceptional coverage, effectively concealing blemishes, redness, and pores for a refined look. Its strong adherence and excellent staying power, often noted to last up to 9 hours, make it a popular choice for long wear and summer, particularly for its semi-matte finish on oily skin. However, many users caution that it can feel quite dry, especially for flakier skin, suggesting it might be mixed with hydrating products. Application requires quick, thin blending, often with a spatula or brush, due to its dense texture and strong fixing power. Users also find the shades tend to run brighter, advising a shade adjustment. Despite these points, its performance-to-price ratio is often highlighted as a significant advantage.

Bottom line

At $25.92, this foundation appears to be a good value for its reported performance. It is a suitable option for those with oily skin seeking powerful coverage and long-lasting wear with a semi-matte finish, provided one considers its potential for dryness and specific application needs.
