We've all wondered how and what Momoland's Nancy did to achieve poreless, glass skin. First step: Primer! This is the secret, ladies. Prime your face before applying anything else. It protects and blurs your pores and blemishes, which turns your face into a smooth canvas. BANILA CO's Prime Primer comes in three different versions that are perfect for various skin types.
After priming your face, you can then apply the foundation of your choice. However, Koreans prefer using BB cream over foundation. Laneige's BB Cushion Pore Control is not just an ordinary BB cream product, and it comes with a cushion application that ensures full coverage and a pore-perfecting formula that will guarantee that glass skin you've been aiming for!
If you've got some nasty pimples or dark shadows that are ruining your look, just pat a small amount of Kill Cover Airy Fit Concealer by CLIO and voilà! You're ready for the next step!
