The color doesn't seem to be overly bright. I highly recommend this as a summer cushion for those who sweat a lot!
ConsThe price... I bought it on sale, but if it were full price, I probably wouldn't have purchased it.

After dabbing the puff once, distribute it on your cheeks, forehead, nose, and chin, then blend. It applies thinly with excellent coverage. Honestly, the puff does about 80% of the work. This puff enhances the coverage so much that it can easily compete with regular foundations. The cushion's texture is rich, effectively concealing pores. It's also great for touch-ups, blending seamlessly. The color is my favorite part - I usually use shades between 21-23 with yellow undertones, and the nude beige shade is perfect. The longevity is even more amazing. When I use base products, I prioritize lasting power - things like creasing around the nose, caking, or makeup fading. I especially hate messy creasing around the nose, but this never happens with this cushion. Although it's marketed as a summer cushion and feels a bit dry, I use it year-round. In summer, I apply it over light skincare for a matte, oil-free finish. In winter, I layer it over intensive skincare and even a dewy balm, and it doesn't crack or separate - it's simply my holy grail cushion. I'm currently on my 7th compact! For reference, I've tried most popular department store foundations, but I'm sticking with Pony Effect. To summarize: 1. Coverage: High 2. Longevity: Excellent 3. Color: Great 4. Scent: Moderate (not overpowering, just a typical cosmetic scent, perhaps powdery - I'm sensitive to scents, but it's not unpleasant) 5. Packaging: Very attractive
ConsWhile I don't have many complaints about this cushion, some might find the color slightly light. I've tried both shade 22 Nude Beige and 21 Natural Ivory. It's not so much that the colors are light, but because it's a high-coverage cushion, the pigmentation is intense. If you apply too much, it can look quite thick. For those who struggle with controlling the amount, I recommend choosing a shade that exactly matches your complexion. For example, if your skin is slightly yellow or dark but you prefer a brighter look and usually use shade 21, you might find Pony Effect's 21 extremely bright. Those who are skilled at applying thin layers and controlling the amount can use a lighter shade without issues. Another minor drawback is that if the puff gets slightly damp or touches water, it swells up, making it difficult to close the cushion compact (which has a magnetic closure).
TipThe cushion's texture varies depending on your skincare routine. For a matte finish, keep your skincare light - just toner and moisturizer. For a hydrated, long-lasting look, use a more intensive routine: toner, essence, serum, and a rich moisturizer or balm before applying the cushion. This approach really enhances its staying power.

For my combination skin, it controls oil excellently without being drying, maintaining just the right level of hydration. There's a pleasant cooling effect when it touches the skin, and it doesn't cake even with multiple applications. Above all, the coverage is fantastic. Usually, high coverage means a heavy texture, but this applies thinly while making my skin look naturally beautiful, as if I have great skin. The puff adheres perfectly, blending the product seamlessly. I've stocked up on several because I love it so much.
ConsIf I had to nitpick, maybe the ingredients? I checked on Hwahae out of curiosity, and there are four ingredients to be cautious about. However, the product performance is so good that I'll likely continue using it despite this.

A light dusting of powder makes it last much longer. It's not an overly dry cushion, so it was perfect for winter use. The puff is delightfully plush, which I loved. Touch-ups were mostly seamless without clumping, making it more convenient. I appreciated being able to purchase it at a reasonable price with various gratis items.
ConsInitially, controlling the amount can be a bit tricky. It needs to be applied thinly, as a thicker application can look heavy and feel like there's too much product on your face. If it's even slightly too thick, the way it breaks down can look messy. The puff tends to dispense rather than absorb product, making it somewhat challenging to control the amount.
TipLightly dab the puff and apply it to your face. Even a small amount picks up a lot of product, so it can easily become too thick. Gently pat it all over your face and then blend by tapping. It's slightly sticky, so if you don't like that feeling, a light dusting of powder is recommended.

Allows for a natural brightening effect. Coverage and application: Fantastic! Even a tiny amount on the puff provides basic coverage when applied thinly. Adherence: After proper skincare, it adheres beautifully without pilling or excess shine.
ConsEven for combination/oily skin, it may crack and pill in dry environments like air conditioning or heating. Not recommended for dry skin! The biggest issue is the puff. After using it twice post-opening, I was shocked by how much color bled when washing it (deep navy). Suggest washing the puff immediately after opening or using a different one. The foundation itself is good (which might indicate the puff isn't great), so replacing it with another brand's puff doesn't affect adherence or application.
TipBe cautious when using the puff!

The adherence is more on the matte side rather than dewy, which is great as it doesn't seem to transfer easily. The application is fantastic - the puff itself seems to distribute the product in a thin, even layer. This aspect is probably the best feature!
ConsThe coverage isn't particularly outstanding unless you keep applying multiple layers. The adherence leans more towards a matte finish rather than a moisturizing one. Perhaps due to my lack of skin hydration, I notice some slight patchiness or separation on my skin.

A little goes a long way, which is fantastic. The thick puff is really impressive - it enhances the adherence to the skin. Plus, it leaves a powdery finish without feeling too sticky.
ConsThe overall shade range tends to be on the lighter side, so I highly recommend testing before purchasing. I didn't really notice much of a cooling effect.
TipFor a flawless complexion, apply a thin layer of concealer before using this cushion foundation.

It can be a bit drying, but with proper skincare beforehand, it works well.
ConsI bought Nude Beige, but the shade was too light. Some ingredients didn't agree with my skin, causing large blemishes on my cheeks. I've temporarily stopped using it.
TipIf you spray plenty of mist on the puff, it applies smoothly and moistly without pilling when touching up your makeup.
