Suitable for cold seasons, neutral ☆ Between 23-25 shades, suitable for deeper skin tones. Approximately 24 shade in Amore Pacific products 1. Color Personally, this is the most appealing aspect Domestic foundations have generally become brighter, so even 23 shades feel quite light on the skin. The trusted Hera brand has also expanded its target audience and become much brighter, creating a stark difference between the face and neck for warm-toned, muted skin tones. Recommended. When swatched, it may seem brighter than the Studio Fix foundation in NC25, but once applied to the face, they are nearly the same. 2. Comfortable Wear Not an intense, stuck-on feeling, but not unusable either Personally, it feels similar to the Jungsaemmool Skin Nuder Cushion and the previous Hera Mist Cushion - spreads on comfortably and moisturizes, without becoming overly dewy or breaking down. The color looks natural and healthy.
Cons1. The puff doesn't match well, making it difficult to apply thinly. I've switched to using the Clio puff. 2. The price seems to be increasing.
Tip1. I recommend changing the puff. 2. Personally, the tone looks brighter on my face compared to similar shades, but some people find it too yellowish-brown, so I recommend testing it to match your skin tone. 3. Reference skin tones: Jungsaemmool Medium, Javain de Seoul Wink 23, Vely Vely 3, Amore Pacific 23 shades are also quite bright, creating a big difference from the neck. ☆ The photo compares the swatch with Vely Vely 3. The current Vely Vely 3 looks the most natural on my bare skin, while the MAC NC25 sits a bit brighter.

ConsThe coverage, puff, price, and color payoff are all disappointing. The coverage is really worse than even more affordable brand products. While it is not matte, after applying it on top of sunscreen or base makeup, it becomes more greasy than dewy. I can't use it without powder. I exchanged the gift I received and the salesperson recommended this, but even those who use shade 23 should use a shade higher. The color payoff is not natural, making the face look dull. I will go back to Chungsaemool.

But I've been using this product for about 2 weeks now, and I don't feel that way at all. The color selection is also great - I use the slightly reddish shade 22, and it matches my skin tone perfectly, so blemishes are barely noticeable! My skin texture isn't too bad to begin with, and I usually just need a bit of blemish coverage, but with this cushion, I can just dab it on and it's perfect. There are so many color options, it's really easy to find the one that suits your skin tone.
ConsThe downside is...the puff is not great at all ㅠㅠ I think I'll have to use the puff I was using before. It just feels a bit rough somehow....
TipUsing a brush definitely seems like a great tip!

I bought it from a duty-free shop, so it was cheaper than the retail price. I previously used Belif cushions and Espoir taping cushions. I prefer cushions over foundation because it's less of a hassle. I selected the same NC25 shade as my Espoir taping cushion. As an owner of the 22-23 shade, it appears to be about half a tone lighter than my previous products. Since I have a warm-toned complexion, I actually prefer the yellow-based foundation. If your skin tone is around 22-23, I would recommend the NC20 shade. (From top to bottom in the photo: Dior 203 Natural, MAC NC25, Espoir Tan) Longevity: It's amazing... This is the first time I've tried a department store cushion (was it Belif?), and I can see why people rave about department store products. I wore it for over 12 hours and when I got home, it still looked as if it had just been applied - I was amazed at how well it adhered to my skin. I'm guessing I did some touch-ups in between. The MAC 24-hour concealer also works well in combination with this. At first, I was pressing and stippling the cushion on heavily, as recommended by Youtrue's review that these days you only need to lightly dab it on. But even with just light, layered tapping, it doesn't get cakey and adheres beautifully. It's so dewy and hydrating. It's dewy but has a matte finish. Though I still like to set it with powder just to be safe... (But I think you can skip the powder in really dry, cold weather) The puff that comes with it is also decent - not as stiff as the Picasso puff. If you have any questions, feel free to leave a comment and I'll share my thoughts.
ConsTo be honest, I'm not a big fan of the puff that comes with it. Long live MAC! So I'm looking to try a different puff, any recommendations? I'll be relying on department stores for my future purchases.
TipI always use the Belif True Cream (it's really amazing) for my makeup. The concealer pairing also seems to work well.
