My hair doesn't get crazily stuck to it, and it applies thinly yet adheres well, so there's less transfer. Coverage isn't the most important factor for me, but I'd say it's above average.^^
ConsThe most disappointing aspect was the base color. I have a bright, cool-toned complexion and usually wear shades like 21 or 13.17, which are brighter than the standard 21. But this cushion's color seemed a bit too yellow on me. In the evenings, my face looked even more yellow... 😞 Even when I first applied it, I didn't get that "brightening" effect. Instead, the tone felt more muted and settled. However, since the cushion is so moisturizing and luminous, my skin still looked healthy overall~
TipIt's not exactly a "pro tip," but for those with laugh lines, I'd recommend applying the product thinly around the mouth area. On the first day, I applied a bit more coverage than usual, and by the evening, I had creasing around my laugh lines. The next day, I applied it more thinly around my mouth, and it was much better. I'd like to define the Corte cushion as a moisturizing, radiant cushion that can be used even in the summer. This was my first time trying Corte, and I feel like I've found a new holy grail product! It's quite dewy, so I probably wouldn't recommend it for oily skin types, but I strongly suggest it for dry skin that loves a glowy look.^^

I will write it as detailed and truthfully as possible! I work at a place where I have to stand in front of a grill, so my pores easily open, my skin temperature is high, and if I apply a product with oil, my skin breaks down within 3 hours. I have about 6-7 cushions, but I've actually tried more than 10 cushion brands so far. Compared to the worst cushion I've used, 1. There is less stickiness after application! I prefer matte finish cushions because cushions with a powdery finish usually make my pores look clogged or my skin flaky. This cushion has moisture in it, but the finish is not sticky. I always do my makeup in front of a fan after showering to lower my skin temperature, and apart from a few strands of hair sticking to my face in the strong wind, there was no noticeable stickiness, so it was easy to use. 2. The 21 shade is really natural. I generally prefer a bright, glowing complexion and choose lighter shades, as I was previously using 11 or 13 shades. 21 sometimes looked ashy or too pink when I first applied it, but over time it blended seamlessly with my skin tone. I personally thought the color was a bit dark, but it's such a natural color that if you're looking for a slight tone-up and coverage, you'll be satisfied with it.
Cons1. The color... It seemed to have a slightly yellowish tone on me. I can't elaborate on this too much since it's a personal opinion, but if you generally prefer a bright, glowing complexion, you may be a bit dissatisfied. 2. Breakdown and longevity ...Ah, this is really... ㅜ Normally, I apply a long-lasting tone-up sunscreen and then layer a BB cushion on top, and it lasts at least 5 hours. With the 11 shade cushion I mentioned earlier, even as time passed, I never thought "Wow, my face is in such a state, why didn't anyone tell me to touch up my makeup!" But this product is quite moisturizing, so even with sunscreen on top, it broke down, and even without the sunscreen, it still broke down... I think it would be quite disappointing for oily skin types. You know what "beautifully broken down" makeup means, right? This cushion couldn't handle my T-zone and pores - the T-zone was almost completely gone, and on my cheeks, there were whiteheads or the remaining cushion product had gathered and cracked in a dotted pattern around my nose. Since my skin is naturally oily, I could just lightly dab it away and reapply, but the more I layered it, the more whiteheads would come up, making it burdensome to touch up. 3. Naturally, a few small pimples also started popping up along with the whiteheads. I've been using the same skincare routine and sunscreen, but at some point, a few small pimples started appearing... The Hwahae review period is supposed to last until the 24th, and I wanted to use it until then, but I had to discontinue use because of this, which is a bit disappointing personally... I trusted this product since it was recommended by a dermatologist, but it seems like it's more suitable for normal to dry skin types in the summer, rather than oily skin. 4. The price... hmm ㅜㅜㅜㅠ These days, even drugstore brands are coming out with good quality cushions at low prices, so I'm not sure if this is something people would actively seek out and purchase.
TipAs evident from the ingredient list, this is a product that would be good for dry skin types. The coverage, moisture, and lack of stickiness were satisfactory, so I think normal to combination skin types could use it without any issues and be quite satisfied. If you apply a long-lasting primer or pore-filling primer before using the cushion, it might last even longer! I personally stopped using it because I had a few small pimples come up, and I didn't want to clog my pores further, but if you can create a smooth base on your skin before using it, I think it could be a really nice product.
