Hello everyone!
Today's review is on TonyMoly's BCDation Water Pact!
I was actually really excited when I bought this product. I saw it online a little after it first came out on blog.naver.com. However 99% of the reviews were only on the first and lightest shade! I thought to myself, oh well now here's another reason why I should purchase it. I was a bit cautious, because it only does have 2 shades, and if you don't know already, South Korean face makeup, especially, is very light, and I have a medium/beige skin tone with yellow undertones. Considering the price is almost $20.00 USD it would've really sucked if it didn't match my skin tone. But as you can see, I bought it anyway.
Here are some pictures of the box it came in, as well as the actual packaging of the product below.
I was so excited to use this I haven't really seen any reviews on it so far, and if I did it was only on the lightest shade.
I remember seeing this when it was first up for sale on the website I buy from. I was absolutely so excited. Of course there were products like this before, but something about this one stood out to me more, I'm not exactly sure why.
I was hesitant with buying this mostly because of the usual reason I'm hesitant when buying a Korean face cosmetic. The shades are always too light, or too cool/pink toned for my skin tone. I've received samples of their BCDation All Master, in which the darkest shade was just the slightest bit too light for my liking. Especially since it had a reasonable amount of coverage, I didn't want to buy it because it looked to noticeably light on me.
However I decided to take the chance because I got this around Christmas-time, and I am so glad that I did decide to buy this.
When you first open up the packaging, it's like a usual pact/cushion. With a mirror, the puff, and the product itself. One thing I noticed right away was that the puff was waay to big for the space that you're given to dip it in. The opening is really tiny for this huge of a puff, which is kind of annoying at times, so I just use my knock off beauty blender to apply it. The puff is actually different than a cushion foundations, as this one is more smooth, it kind of feels like a thicker latex, instead of a light cushion-y air sponge. Most likely due to the pact's texture.

There is actually water inside the pact. Which is mainly the reason I bought it. Also if you couldn't tell already by my Lioele Waterdrop Sleeping Pack, I absolutely love it when products have that water droplet formation etc. I just think it's so cool. But, yes, this product is very moisturizing, so it's good for the dry winter months that were upon us. It almost melts into your skin because of how creamy the formula is.

Since this product is really moisturizing, and my skin is quite oily due to it being dried out from my acne creams which leads it to produce more oil, it does get a little slippery. So make sure to lightly set the oilier areas on your face after applying this, or remember to blot often. Another thing I noticed was that, once again, due to it's dewy-ness, it creased under my eyes, so I have to make sure to definitely set that area with a powder.

| blended out |
Here is the product blended out, since it's so watery and light it blends into my skin tone nicely. The coverage on this is light, but is slightly build able. I usually wear this when I'm just going for a lighter look. If you run out of product, simply push that button that's right under the mirror, as shown above, and push from the bottom. The old pact will pop out, which you can discard and replace with a new one!
All in all, it was a great moisturizing foundation for me in the Winter, and is currently a lovely dewy pact for me right now in the Spring. Anyways, I hope you enjoyed this review, as always if you have any questions/comments/recommendations please don't be afraid to let me know, I will answer as quick as I can!
