Cathy Cat Lucid Pure Whitening Base SPF45 PA+++ Special Set

I pick up something from Cathy Cat nearly every time I place an order on Gmarket. Cathy Cat has become one of my very favorite brands due to their great quality (and great color choices), cute packaging and affordable prices.


Cathy Cat put out special Sets a lot so you can score nice deals most of the time.

I had the intention to buy a makeup base from Cathy Cat so when I found the Lucid Pure Whitening Base SPF45 PA+++ in a Special Set for around 18000 Won (miincos on Gmarket) I decided to give it a try.

The Lucid Pure Whitening Base comes in a pretty white pump bottle with cute snowflakes printed on packed in a pretty silver box.
I personally don't need a whitening product as I am naturally already ghostly pale but the base has a pretty brightening effect I really like.


The primer is a white smooth cream that gives a glowy highlight to my skin. It gives very light coverage evening out my skin nicely.
This base offers good sun protection, too (SPF 45 PA+++).


The kit contains the full-sized base, a sample of their Lucid Pure Whitening Foundation SPF28 PA++ in #21 (6g tube) and a foundation brush.


The Lucid Pure Whitening Foundation is very pale thus suitable for my skin. However it has very strong yellow tones that get a bit too obvious on me as I am on the pinker side. The coverage is not bad (about medium) and it feels lightweight and moisturizing.
The foundation brush looks decent enough to me, but I don't use foundation brushes. I might try this with my Cathy Cat Amazing Cream Blush though!
