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.
TipI recommend doing a powder application.

I liked it the most because the fading was beautiful. Also, the nose area did not lift up and there was no accentuation of flakes! The case is also pretty, so I like it.
ConsIf you don't apply powder separately, the transfer is no joke.. As much as it's moisturizing, the transfer.. After 4 hours, the lasting power becomes unnoticeable..
TipSince it's a compact powder, not a cushion, it will come out like a crater if you press down hard. You have to press it very gently. After applying, the transfer is severe, so you must definitely set it with powder!

The coverage is high, and it's similar to Missha's Tension Pact. It has a slightly powdery and slightly luminous finish. Unlike the Missha Tension Pact, I didn't experience any breakouts, possibly due to the better ingredients. The application is smooth, and I can build up the coverage by applying it twice to the areas that need more coverage. The longevity is average.
ConsThe transfer is extremely bad. When I touch my face, it transfers everywhere. I even applied powder, but it didn't help. Despite using shade 23, it looks very ashy and makes my face look puffy. As a result, I have to apply a whitening cream on my neck. I have no intention of repurchasing this product.

Since the foundation I had been using until recently was suitable for oily skin, even though I diligently cared for my skin, the flaky skin came back quickly, so I had to change it. As I haven't used it for long, I will continue to observe the skin condition and add more if necessary. First of all, I really liked the tea tree scent. The scent is refreshing, but the cooling sensation is not that strong. This is not a bad thing, as it doesn't irritate my sensitive skin. As promised by the mild ingredients, it doesn't cause itchiness or stinging. The coverage was better than I expected, being dewy. When layered thinly, the coverage is comparable to my previous Laroche-Posay foundation, which had excellent coverage. The formula is moisturizing, so my dry cheeks don't feel tight even after applying makeup. I'm glad I switched. It will work great for me until the peak of summer. I prefer a matte skin finish, so the dewy look is not my preference, but those who like a glowy look will enjoy it. Some said it's a semi-matte finish, but I find it stays dewy throughout. As this is my first time using a dewy foundation, I may not have the best reference for dewy standards. But it's easy to touch up. I'm around 21-22 shade. I usually use 23 to match my body, and was worried it might be too bright, but it's not overly bright. However, those with very dark skin tones may end up looking ashy. It also has a slight darkening effect, so the color becomes closer to my neck over time, which I find favorable.
ConsIt feels quite sticky and transfers a lot. To the extent that when I press down with a puff, the outline of the puff is imprinted on my skin... the same happens with my fingers. It doesn't seem to adhere well. Interestingly though, while it transfers to my hands, it doesn't transfer to tissue paper. This gets better over time as the initial application wears off. Still, I have to touch it up. Around the nose area and on my pores, it tends to emphasize them by the time I need to touch it up. My pores are already quite large, so that's not a big issue, but the area around my nose definitely requires regular touch-ups when using this foundation.

I hardly need to use a concealer, and the puff is really large so it's easy to apply it broadly. As it's a tension foundation, it applies well to the puff. The ingredients are decent enough that I didn't get much trouble. As long as you take good care of your base and skincare, it should be fine.
ConsThe adhesion is really bad. If you just touch it to paper or glass, it all comes off. And if you press it even a little with your hand, it all comes off too. Also, when you press it, a lot of product comes out, so you have to be careful with the amount.
TipUsing a powder or a fixing spray would probably help improve the longevity.

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. 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 will write in a polite tone. 1. Affordable price 2. Moisturizing - Can be used comfortably even in autumn and winter. In summer, applying powder on top makes it look clean. 3. Good ingredients 4. Scent may be divisive, but I personally really liked it. 5. Can conceal some blemishes, acne, redness, and pores to a certain degree. Since I don't have severe skin issues, I don't feel it lacks coverage that much. 6. Looks beautiful and glowy when skin is in good condition. 7. Lovely design.
Cons1. Lacks adhesion, creases a bit in wrinkles, and feels slightly tacky to the touch. 2. Longevity is not that great either - it starts to break down and separate around the cheek area after about 3-4 hours. 3. As mentioned in the positives, while it doesn't lack coverage per se, it may be insufficient when the skin is in a more problematic state, like severe blemishes or large acne. These are inevitable drawbacks that come with the moisturizing nature of the product.
TipIn the summer, using powder on top is essential, and it's probably a good idea to use powder even up until autumn. I haven't tried it in the winter yet... Applying powder on top can help mitigate the three main downsides mentioned. Using this product with a very light application and a thin layer of powder can make the skin look really beautiful and also improve the longevity. When trying to cover more stubborn blemishes, applying this product, followed by a light dusting of powder, and then carefully adding another layer of the product can help boost the coverage. In conclusion, use this with powder for the best results.

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. 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.ProsIn the summer, it's 23 shades of yellow for normal-to-dry skin In the winter, it's 22 shades of yellow for normal-to-dry skin Sensitive, acne, pores, pigmentation issues Ingredients - As a product targeted for troubled skin, the ingredients are decent. Centella extract helps with skin regeneration. Color - The color is quite muted, almost matching the skin tone. It's not overly yellow, more of a neutral shade. Texture - It applies moisturizing. However, if you don't spread it quickly, it can leave some streaks. Coverage - The coverage is good. It can cover acne scars to a decent extent. Be careful not to apply it too thickly. Accessibility - Apieu stores are not as numerous as other roadshop brands, but there are still offline stores available.
ConsAdherence - It doesn't adhere well. It tends to rub off easily. Even though it applied moisturizing at first, for some reason the texture becomes uneven and it starts to peel off after about an hour. Longevity - After applying and an hour later, the coverage on my nose started to fade. Personally, every time I apply it, my face feels hot and swollen, so I had to give up using it after a few tries. At first, I thought it was because of the high oil content in the summer, but it seems there's an ingredient that doesn't agree with my skin.
TipThe built-in puff applies the product thickly, which makes it prone to peeling. I'd recommend finding a different, thinner and more adherent puff. Powder setting is a must-have.

There was less skin irritation compared to other cushions. 2. The cushion felt more moisturizing than expected, which was nice.
ConsThe disappointing aspects were: 1. The adhesion was a bit lacking - when applying the cushion and then touching a phone, about half of it seemed to transfer off. 2. The coverage could be better. 3. The color in shade 23 came out too bright, feeling more like shade 21. 4. It requires a thicker application.
TipIf minimizing skin irritation is the priority, this would be a good occasional-use product.

Cooling sensation Even though it's winter and I don't particularly need a cooling sensation, it still feels nice and refreshing. 2. Moisturizing It's really moisturizing! It's perfect to use as a winter cushion. 3. Adherence The adherence is also great..♥ 4. Cushion Color It has a yellow-based tone, and my skin tone is around #23. It's not too bright, but it's not too dark either - it's just the right #23 shade. It has a radiant look that works well for school and going out.
Cons1. Transferring Since it's so moisturizing, there's a bit of transferring, so I always have to powder the chin area and the oily zones. 2. Coverage The coverage is really non-existent. I don't usually have a lot of trouble with breakouts, so coverage isn't that important to me, but lately, I've been getting a lot of dark spots, so I have to use a separate concealer to cover them up... The coverage is really minimal.

ConsIt starts to rub off as soon as I pat it on with the puff. The caking is severe. It's not even moisturizing, and it's dry and cracked. The biggest downside is that I developed severe acne. I bought it because it was supposed to not cause acne, but I ended up getting really bad breakouts. This cushion is the worst.
