Don't set your expectations too high, but it does provide some light coverage! It gives a slight grayish-yellow tint - think of it as a 'bare skin' cushion. * Application It applies with a moisturizing feel initially. You might experience a slight cooling effect when patting it in with the puff, which can be refreshing for those with redness or warmth in their cheeks. * Staying Power It lasts about 2-3 hours before needing a touch-up. * Performance It feels incredibly gentle, unlikely to cause any blemishes. For best results, make sure to load up the cushion puff well before applying. * Overall Impression There's a subtle cool mint scent mixed with other pleasant fragrances. It has a natural look to it. The coverage is similar to Biotherm's Aquasource cushion - not heavy, but enough to give your face a natural, fresh look. Perfect for students who want to wear makeup without getting caught! If you're looking for a 'bare skin' cushion, this is it. * Design The lightweight, mint-colored case is aesthetically pleasing, though the plastic material might be prone to cracking. It's simple and sleek. While it would be nice to have a sturdier case like YSL, Fomood, or Lara Besse cushions, expecting that at this price point would be a bit unreasonable.
Cons* Coverage (again) The main drawback is the lack of strong coverage. If Etude could develop a functional cushion that prevents blemishes, doesn't cause acne, and provides good coverage, it would be a massive hit. That's the main area for improvement. * Cushion Puff The puff tends to absorb quite a bit of the product, so it's best to really saturate the puff before applying.
Tip* Pro Tip: You can snag this cushion for just 10,000 won during sales or special Etude House events! (I got mine for 10,000 won during a sale period) * Insider Advice: Sign up for membership at all the road shop brands. They often add you to their KakaoTalk friends and send notifications about sales and 1+1 offers. You never know when you might want to buy from a particular brand!

Maybe it's because I found a base that matches my complexion, but the coverage is pretty good too. Its grayish tint, which could be seen as both a pro and a con, does an excellent job at neutralizing redness. I apply it with a wedge puff, and even without sunscreen or powder, just this over my skincare, it holds up quite well through my school day. By around 4 PM, there's some inevitable wear, but it's still in decent shape! The soothing feeling when applied makes me reach for it often. Plus, the slim case makes it super convenient to carry around.
ConsFirst off, the Honey Beige shade leans quite gray for a 23 shade and is a bit light. The brightness difference between 21, 22, and 23 isn't significant, with 21 being on the darker side, so I'm considering repurchasing in 22. The case is extremely flimsy - it felt a bit loose even when brand new. The included puff is just average quality, so I use a separate puff for application.
TipUse a wedge puff!!! Seriously, applying with a wedge puff is a game-changer. Also, the grayish tint is quite noticeable (especially in Honey Beige, it seems). After testing, I found little difference between 22 and 23, so if you were planning to get 23, I'd recommend going for 22 instead.
