Reddit take

AI summary of the Reddit excerpts below — not a quote

Tirtir is a polarizing K-beauty brand known primarily for its high-coverage cushion foundations and skincare. While some users consider their products "holy grail" items for their longevity and adherence, the brand faces significant criticism on Reddit for its aggressive influencer marketing and product performance issues, specifically regarding oxidation and texture on dry skin.

Pros

  • High coverage that can function similarly to a concealer.
  • Excellent adherence and longevity, even in hot and humid weather.
  • Effective skincare products, including toners, ampoules, and azelaic acid treatments.
  • Sunscreen powders are well-regarded for touch-ups on oily skin.

Cons

  • Frequent reports of significant oxidation, causing shades to turn orange or peach after application.
  • Can feel heavy, cakey, or "mask-like" due to the intense coverage level.
  • May emphasize dry patches or feel overly drying for those with non-oily skin types.
  • Limited undertone range, specifically lacking options for pale cool olive skin tones.

Caveats

  • The cushion sponge is reported to absorb a lot of product, which may cause the compact to dry out faster than expected.
  • Aggressive marketing tactics and high-end influencer gifting have led to skepticism regarding the authenticity of some viral reviews.

Best for

  • Users seeking maximum coverage and long-wear performance.
  • Individuals working long shifts or living in hot climates where makeup adherence is a priority.
  • Oily skin types looking for high-adherence base products.

Avoid if

  • You have very dry skin or struggle with foundation clinging to dry patches.
  • You are sensitive to foundation oxidation or have cool olive undertones.
  • You prefer a natural, sheer, or 'no-makeup' look.

My current routine right now is kbeauty though 😅 VT (reedle shot, masks) and TIRTIR (toner, ampoule, moisturiser) are working well for me.

Parent context: I used the Tirtir red cushion and the coverage was so intense, I felt like I was wearing a mask! Reply: Totally! The oxidation on the Tirtir is so bad… plus I feel like the sponge cushion absorbs too much product and it ends up drying faster than I had anticipated.

since tirtir is reputed to oxidize I would hesitate to get the 13C and 15C for you because they already look a little orangish on the second pic
