ProsThe ingredients were great and I loved it so much. It's such a shame it's been discontinued.
ConsThe color options didn't seem very versatile. There's a drastic difference between the shades.

It didn't cause any small bumps or blemishes. 2. It provided a moisturizing feeling, preventing dryness. ConsRecommended1. It's thick... You can feel the foundation on your face until you remove it. 2. The color wasn't a good match... I'm a 21 cool tone, but it somehow looked off on my skin. 3. The staying power was weak. - as**********Apr 3, 2021 (UTC)Oily SkinAcne Skin

I have oily and acne-prone skin, and I couldn't take good care of my acne and various skin issues, so I have sensitive skin. The ingredients have never caused my skin to flare up or anything like that (I've been using it for about 2 years). The coverage isn't extremely heavy, but it's pretty good. ConsRecommendedBut even though it's shade 23, it seems a bit pale to me (if you apply too much, it looks more like a plain white color rather than a healthy white skin tone?), so it would be better if there were more color options. - yo********Mar 4, 2021 (UTC)Combination SkinSensitive SkinAcne Skin

The scent has the signature scent of madecassoside, and when applied with the puff, it has a cooling sensation and feels much more moisturizing than powdery. At first application, it gives a subtle, beautiful glow. And if you layer it thinly, the coverage gradually builds up. When I bought this product, it was on a huge sale online for around $30, and there were only 23 shades left, but the 21st shade matches me perfectly! The shade looks a bit bright. ConsThe longevity is not as long as claimed. It doesn't seem to apply transparently. When applied, it looks a bit uneven and bumpy... And even after powder application, it transfers onto the mask. Touch-ups will be necessary. The included puff is really not great. The caking is quite severe, so you'll need to replace the puff with a different one. TipRecommendedI recommend doing a powder application. - zo*****Jan 16, 2021 (UTC)Normal SkinSensitive SkinAcne Skin

It should not be too moist, 3. but have a decent amount of coverage 4. and a natural tone (Warm Ivory from Bobbi Brown is my tone). It must absolutely not be discontinued... I write this with that sentiment in mind. I am someone who started with contact dermatitis and ended up with acne-prone skin in my early twenties. During my long nomadic lifestyle, I happened to find a cushion sold at an esthetic shop that worked for me, and used that for several years. But it was recently discontinued. While searching around, I saw YouTube recommendations for a Givenchy cushion and tried it, but within a few hours, I started getting milia again. I was devastated. Again in the midst of my nomadic lifestyle, I've found a godsend - the Apieu product. This is my first time using it, and it seems really good. The coverage is decent (it's thick) and the color has a natural tone (the bright 21 doesn't look like I'm wearing a mask). It's perfect for someone like me who likes it. The 23 isn't too dark either, maybe around a 22 would be more accurate (-> After using it more, it's not actually a beige, ivory tone, but has a pinkish undertone). And it doesn't cause any breakouts. For that alone, I'm grateful. ConsAs I continued using it, I realized the color is not quite a perfect beige tone for me, but has a slightly reddish feel... I wonder what I had it applied with initially. And the thick application feel is a bit disappointing. I'll have to start my nomadic journey again to find an even better color match. There is some pore clogging, but it's much more manageable compared to Nars or Givenchy (->Still, it's bothersome). Since I don't use oils due to my acne-prone skin, the lack of a dewy base is a bit of a downside, but the fact that it doesn't cause breakouts is a bigger plus for me. I'd recommend this to those with similar acne-prone skin (though the type of acne may vary ㅠㅠ I don't do well with oils, shea butter, so can't use Physiogel either, and overly nourishing products also cause milia, like Estée Lauder Double Wear, the brown bottle one). Personally, Missha's red-toned BB cream, Estée Lauder Double Wear, Nars Radiant Foundation, and the Givenchy cushion all caused milia for me. The Bobbi Brown Skin Foundation has good ingredients, but when I wear it out, it looks like I have no makeup on at all. TipRecommendedI applied the Avène mist, followed by the Cha&Park ampoule, then the Zeroid soothing lotion, and finally the Dewytree sun cream. This combination doesn't cause any breakouts for me... I really don't have much choice. ㅎㅎ - Hwahae UserNov 12, 2020 (UTC)Dry SkinSensitive SkinAcne SkinAtopic Skin

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsI've been using this foundation daily for over 3 years now... The main advantage I've noticed from using it daily is that the ingredients are gentle. That's about it. It's not that I never get any blemishes, but they seem to be less severe than with other foundations. To be honest, I couldn't find another gentle foundation, so I've been using this one reluctantly and repeatedly. ConsThe lasting power and coverage are just so-so. The 21 shade is brighter than expected, and the 23 shade is just about my skin tone (I usually use 21). So I'm using the 23 now, but it's too natural-looking - I even remember buying the VDL Mebae Serenity before. Other than the ingredients, there's not much else... So on days when I can't skip makeup, I just use this foundation casually. TipRecommendedIt has a semi-matte finish, so those with dry skin might want to apply a generous amount of base products. If you find it starts to break down in the middle of the day, you can powder the T-zone area. - sa**********Nov 6, 2020 (UTC)Oily SkinSensitive SkinAcne Skin

Fragrance - It is fragrance-free. Coverage - The coverage is really good. I heard on YouTube that the coverage is good, so I bought and tried it, and it's even better than I expected. ConsRecommendedBreakouts - Perhaps because my skin is sensitive, when I use this product and cleanse, small breakouts appear on my face. There's nothing else particularly bad about it. - su*******Sep 21, 2020 (UTC)Oily SkinSensitive SkinAcne Skin

This is the only product I can use comfortably without aggravating my acne! 🌻Color - Although I'm a 23, I also use 21-22 well. 21 is too light, so I continue using 23. 🌻Longevity - The ingredients are gentle, so the longevity isn't incredibly long, but it definitely doesn't break down messily. It fades away naturally, so I just need to dab on a little touch-up in the afternoon when I've worn it since morning. 🌻Coverage - This is why I use it despite having a lot of acne and scars. The coverage is high. Is it extremely high? Hmm, I'd say it's just about right. The slightly yellow tone helps conceal redness well! If the coverage is lacking, I just dab it on a bit more. It covers pretty well overall! 🌻Oil control - Interestingly, it's not as oily as you'd think. The T-zone does break down (I have an oily complexion), but in the summer it definitely wears off, so I lightly powder it. It still wears off, but it's manageable. ConsThe longevity isn't as good as regular foundations. But it fades away subtly, so touch-ups are easy. The built-in puff isn't great, but people who use it well seem to like it. I absolutely don't use it and use the Missha Air Puff instead. TipRecommendedI recommend stocking up when there are big discounts! - Hwahae UserSep 3, 2020 (UTC)Oily SkinSensitive SkinAcne Skin

The coverage is not great, but it's decent. The fragrance is refreshing and I like it. Haha It's a moisturizing type. ConsRecommendedThe longevity is poor and it gets dark... It's not pretty when it breaks down. ㅠㅠ The color also has a slightly grayish tone. - sa********Aug 21, 2020 (UTC)Combination SkinSebum/BlackheadsDark CirclesWrinkles/Elasticity

You can achieve a dewy and glowing skin expression without having to be too meticulous with your basic skincare routine. And there's a slight cooling sensation when applied! I'm in shade 23, but personally felt the color was a bit too light, and 22 matched my skin better. It also seems to have a pink-based undertone! The coverage is decent as well. And the case looks neat and cute haha. ConsThere's a slight oily breakdown, so it's better to set it with powder :) TipRecommendedI mainly use it for touch-ups, and I think this cushion is suitable for that purpose!
