If I had to describe this product in one phrase, I'd call it a touch-up cushion. I've tried many cushions, but this is the first one that makes touch-ups look like a fresh application. You don't need to press hard; just lightly tap it three times on each cheek, chin, and forehead. This gives you a CC cream-like coverage. If you want more coverage, just press a bit harder. When I first applied it, I was surprised by how much it looked like I'd used foundation. The adherence is great, and I'd say the coverage is medium to high. It spreads well and has a matte finish, which I love. While it might not be ideal for all-day wear on its own, it's fantastic for touch-ups over foundation. It refreshes your makeup without caking or looking patchy. In my experience, it's the best cushion I've used for touch-ups. Even when I've only worn sunscreen and need to quickly get ready for an unexpected evening out, this cushion makes it look like I've had a full face of makeup on all day. Despite some minor drawbacks, the positives far outweigh the negatives, which is why I've given it such a high rating.
ConsFirst off, I wouldn't say this product has particularly 'clean' ingredients. Unfortunately, I experienced some blemishes after using it, which was disappointing. The biggest letdown is its staying power. When I first got this product, I applied it at 7 AM, and by 11 AM, it had already broken down. The way it breaks down isn't pretty either - it forms little dots around the nose, mouth, and cheeks. To be fair, this was during summer when the heat affects wear time. In autumn weather, it lasts much longer - about 8 hours without breaking down. If applied well initially, it could potentially last all day without touch-ups. The matte finish might feel tight on dry skin types. I haven't tried it in fall or winter yet, but I've noticed some tightness on cooler evenings recently. If you're not a fan of matte finishes, you might want to reconsider. Lastly, I noticed that the cushion isn't fully saturated with product. It seems to contain less product than expected, and I can see white parts of the cushion, which is a first for me. The product doesn't seem to have fully absorbed into the cushion, so it doesn't feel as moist as other cushions I've used.

This was my favorite thing about it. ✔ Matte skin finish I have oily skin that gets even greasier in summer, so I loved how matte this is. ✔ Long-lasting Maybe because it's matte, but it lasts quite well. I've used it for touch-ups and initial application, and it stayed clean for a long time without needing fixes. ✔ Nice built-in puff It's similar to IOPE's - soft and bouncy. I hadn't heard of this brand before so I didn't expect much, but I was surprised by how good it is!!! So grateful for the refill too.
Cons✔ Case design is meh... It's personal preference, but I don't think it's very pretty. Maybe it'll look cool in summer... ✔ Not great when it breaks down... It lasts quite well, but when it does break down, it looks really messy. You can see it all clumped up in the pores, which I didn't like... ✔ The color is too light I chose shade 23, but it was too light for me as I prefer a natural skin tone rather than a brightening effect. If you're not careful with the amount, you might end up looking like a ghost. Even if everything else is good, it's useless if the color doesn't match. This part is really disappointing. Please make shade 23 true to its number... or offer darker shades... ✔ The scent is unpleasant.. It has a medicinal smell that's a bit off-putting every time I apply it. I wish they had made it fragrance-free.
TipEven considering all the downsides, I think this cushion has more pros than cons. It's probably better for oily skin types than dry, especially for summer use!
