I am not someone who prioritizes heavy coverage, so I was satisfied with the level of coverage. Application: Applies well when applied in a controlled manner, spreading thinly. It has a smooth, soft application. Longevity: Does not break down excessively and maintains an appropriate level of wear.
ConsAdherence: I prefer applying it thinly, and while it does apply thinly, if I don't finish with a powder, there is a sense of slippage. Lasting Power: Being semi-matte, it doesn't wear off completely, but after being out for 4-5 hours, I somehow feel like it has worn away. Emphasis on Dry Patches: Being semi-matte, it does tend to emphasize dry patches a bit more. As I have a dry skin type, it felt a bit drying and had a slightly lifted appearance. I think it didn't work well with my skin type, as this was my first time purchasing a cushion foundation. But when I first applied it, it didn't feel lifted and adhered well, and then at some point, it started to feel slightly lifted.

By applying the cushion with the puff soaked in skin, I was able to achieve a moisturized and semi-matte skin expression even in the winter. The coverage is also quite good, and the lasting power is decent, so I've never had to retouch my makeup while working part-time.
ConsIt's not recommended for dry skin types... There's also some emphasis on dry patches. You'll need to exfoliate well before applying it.
TipIf you find it too drying, you can dampen the puff with a bit of skin or mist before using it.

The skin expression is absolutely beautiful. However, one downside I mentioned before is the shade range - I wish they could offer a slightly lighter 13 shade. Another downside is that the cushion product dries out fairly quickly. Since I don't use this cushion exclusively, if I don't use it frequently, it starts to dry out over time. This makes the product amount feel like it runs out faster. Despite these minor downsides, out of all the cushions I'm currently using, this is my top pick. I have 100% repurchase intent.
Cons💔 Quantity Control It's a bit difficult to control the amount of product picked up with the puff. Even a small amount can apply very thickly. 💔 Accentuating Dryness For oily or combination skin, I'm not sure, but for dry skin in the winter, it can accentuate dryness around the nose and blemishes. It's fine at first, but over time, dryness becomes more apparent. I haven't tried it in the summer, so I don't know about that. 💔 Shade Range I'm between 13 and 11, with fair skin, but even the lightest shade is a bit dark for me. It's written as 21 to 13, but it seems more like 19-17 in reality. Merzy, please provide a truly lighter 13 shade for us fair-skinned folks!😭😭😭 💔 Longevity The coverage is really great, but the longevity isn't as good. After about 4-5 hours, it starts to disappear in spots, so touch-ups are necessary. 💔 Price Buying it at full price feels a bit steep. It's better to get it during sales.
TipThis cushion seems to be a really good fit for those with combination skin. Combination skin types could use this comfortably throughout the year! For oily skin types, it's better to use this in the winter. For dry skin types, it's better to use this in the summer.
