Just apply it quickly before heading out, and it sinks right into the skin.
ConsIt seems to get stuck in the pores quite noticeably. It also tends to highlight whiteheads, unfortunately.

The color is incredibly beautiful. It's not artificial at all, and unlike other cushions, it doesn't sacrifice color for coverage. It also doesn't go to the extreme of being so natural that it loses its ability to cover while leaving you shiny. The color is truly top-notch among department store brands. The adherence is fantastic! It applies smoothly without any patchiness. Even though I have dry skin, it doesn't look cakey at all and applies beautifully. Lastly, the staying power is remarkable. It's a crucial aspect, and this cushion truly delivers. It doesn't budge no matter what you do. As expected from MAC, it's unbeatable. I absolutely adore it!
ConsIf I had to nitpick, maybe the case? I'm not usually bothered by unattractive packaging, but in this instance, it's not so much about the design as it seems a bit flimsy. While the adherence is excellent and it's great for daily use, if you neglect exfoliation, it can emphasize dead skin cells a bit!
TipExfoliation is an absolute must!

ConsI used to have oily skin, but after giving birth, my skin became sensitive. My nose and chin area turned dry, leading to clogged pores and noticeable dead skin cells. It worked well when I had oily skin, but now...

Among department store cushions, this one's a steal at 55,000 won for both the refill and the main product. It's amazing value for money. It wears beautifully as the day goes on!
ConsFor those with dry skin, dead skin cells become noticeable as time passes. The foundation feels quite heavy when applied, so I don't reach for it often. Such a shame!

(especially considering how wickedly expensive other brands can be)
ConsAbsolutely no intention to repurchase... I have combination skin, but it terribly accentuates dead skin cells on dry areas (cheeks and chin).... I received it as a gift, but I would never spend my own money on this. It's better value to use drugstore brands instead...

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 decided to try this cushion after hearing it's recommended by dermatologists for acne-prone and sensitive skin like mine. Compared to other cushions, it doesn't clog pores, so it doesn't cause blemishes and doesn't irritate my skin. Overall, it worked well for my skin type.
ConsIt can be quite drying. After dermatological treatments, my skin tends to be more reactive and dry for about 3 days, with dead skin cells appearing. During this time, I found myself not reaching for this cushion as its coverage isn't enough to conceal blemishes. On days when I have a lot of flaking, it emphasizes dead skin cells and can lead to deep dryness.
TipMy skin tone is slightly lighter than shade 21, around 19-20. This shade goes on bright and luminous, so I'm satisfied with the color match.

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 bought this at a duty-free shop for about 44,000 won. The store employee told me that shade 22 would be perfect for my skin tone, so I decided to purchase it. Here's what I love about it: 1. It looks incredibly natural. The color isn't overly white, so it provides a subtle, natural-looking complexion correction. 2. The staying power is amazing. I applied it at 8 AM and it lasted all night long. It might sound like an exaggeration, but for me, this product was just that good. 3. I highly recommend this for those with oily skin. After applying, if you blot with oil-absorbing sheets, you'll notice that excess oil doesn't come through easily.
ConsThere are a few downsides: It tends to settle into the creases around the nose. While it does stay on for a long time, after a certain point, it doesn't break down gracefully. It seems to have a slightly grayish undertone, which isn't ideal. The way it emphasizes dead skin cells is really something else. If you don't exfoliate regularly, it's a disaster. I never realized I had so many dead skin cells until I used this product. Even with weekly scrubbing and exfoliation, the dead skin keeps showing up.
TipTo address the issue of it settling into nose creases, I've found that gently rubbing a water-based sunscreen over those areas helps. Despite the few drawbacks, I still think this product is really great.

It's just... average across the board.
ConsAfter a couple of hours, it seems to darken slightly. I heard it was supposed to be very matte, but while it might feel that way when first applied, over time it gets quite oily and looks messy. I really dislike feeling suffocated, so I apply only a small amount, but even then the coverage isn't great. When you have a lot of dead skin cells, it really accentuates them!
TipMake sure to exfoliate before applying. Use it together with concealer and powder for best results.

It has excellent staying power 2. There's hardly any darkening
ConsI have combination dehydrated skin with problematic pores and acne scars. However... this feels really matte. It significantly emphasizes pores and dead skin cells. Unless you have a rock-solid skincare routine, the powder just won't adhere. Maybe it's because I'm using it in winter, but it feels even more drying.
TipMake sure to apply a super hydrating base. I mix a bit of jojoba oil with my moisturizer before applying MAC, and this helps prevent it from caking up.

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.ProsThe color is vibrant and pretty, with just the right amount of sheen. It gives a natural, bare-faced look on days when your skin is at its best.
ConsThe coverage is low, yet it feels somewhat heavy and slightly itchy. It clings badly around the nose. It breaks down messily. As I have dry skin, it accentuates dead skin cells around the pores. It causes deep dryness. The puff is subpar. If applied incorrectly, it pills and comes off like dirt.
TipThere are many better options available at lower price points than this.
