The case of Xiaomei is by no means an isolated one. In this era of pursuing efficiency and sophistication, "creating the perfect foundation quickly" has become a common demand for modern urban women. With the development of social media, the standard of "good skin" is getting higher and higher. Who doesn't want to have a makeup that looks as if they were born with good skin and is flawless?
Fast-paced life, environmental pollution, stress and other factors make our skin condition more and more unstable. Dryness, oil, enlarged pores, dull complexion ......
