I've repurchased it two or three times. I prefer a light and transparent makeup, so I really love Ameli's natural-looking tone-up effect...♡ It has no coverage at all, but that's the charm. If I apply a bright concealer to the areas that need coverage, my skin looks really good and beautiful. The coverage is absolutely non-existent, there is literally no coverage at all. You shouldn't think of it as a regular cushion. On days when my skin condition was poor, there was also a slightly floating feeling. - Hwahae UserDry SkinApr 19, 2025
The Amélie Tone-Up Base Daily Cushion truly lives up to its name as the perfect cushion for everyday use! It provides a subtle and natural brightening effect that makes you look fresh-faced and vibrant, as if you're not wearing makeup at all. What I love most is how it doesn't leave a white cast but instead makes your skin look clear and luminous - it's a top recommendation for daily makeup! The texture is lightweight and hydrating, absorbing seamlessly into the skin as you pat it in, leaving a smooth finish without any pilling. It's not heavy or suffocating when wearing a mask, making it ideal for those in-between weather days. It also takes well to touch-ups and fades gracefully over time, maintaining a clean look for hours. Being a brightening moisturizer, the coverage is a bit lacking. It barely covers blemishes or acne scars, so it's best used just for evening out skin texture and complexion. Depending on your skin tone, it might look too light, so those with warm undertones should be careful with the amount they apply - using too much can look a bit unnatural. While it's hydrating, those with dry skin might experience some tightness or pilling if they don't have a solid skincare routine underneath. The case is cute, but the product seems to run out faster than expected, which is disappointing. It's great for daily use, but might not be sufficient for a full glam look. For best results, smooth out your skin texture with skincare first, then apply the product thinly in multiple layers using the puff for a natural brightening effect. Focus on brightening the T-zone and center of the cheeks, then lightly pat the remaining product elsewhere for a balanced look. If you need more coverage, just spot-conceal blemishes for a flawless finish. Pro tip: keep it in the fridge for a cooling effect that's great for calming skin! - Hwahae UserDehydrated SkinAcne SkinSensitive SkinJan 22, 2025
This brightening moisturizer gives your skin a lovely, luminous finish. I really appreciated the built-in spatula on the cushion cover, which makes it easy to dispense small amounts. It does a great job of elevating your complexion, leaving it bright and clear. When used alone, its staying power isn't the best. It doesn't completely conceal pores or cover blemishes perfectly. I found it works even better when mixed with other products or used for touch-ups throughout the day. - Hwahae UserDehydrated SkinAcne SkinDec 13, 2024
Great for when you want a natural tone-up on bare skin. It creates a really bright and radiant base, so with the right amount, you can achieve a beautiful look. It's Ameli's signature and best-selling product, and I definitely think it's quite unique in terms of color. Worth trying if you're looking for a foundation-free option. I was hoping the brightening effect would last, knowing it wouldn't provide coverage, but the staying power is quite short. It doesn't seem to suit my skin either. It goes beyond dewy to greasy, and oil surfaces quickly, which isn't pretty. I wanted to enhance my natural look, but that's not happening. If not applied well, you end up looking like a white rice cake slathered in sesame oil... The puff is also disappointing. Even affordable cushions these days have decent puffs, but this one wears out easily and is awkward to wash, so I switched to something else after a few uses. It's available at Olive Young, so testing is a must! Opinions on this product vary widely from person to person. If you have super sensitive skin, be sure to check the ingredients list. Even with my steel-like skin, it feels stuffy and itchy... - Hwahae UserDehydrated SkinAtopy SkinSensitive SkinOct 23, 2024
It's not overly pink and doesn't leave a white cast. I love how it naturally evens skin tone. With its high SPF, I can use it alone without additional sunscreen, which is super convenient. Even after hours, it doesn't cake or emphasize dead skin cells - just a slight oil breakthrough. The coverage is practically non-existent. When you have blemishes or your skin isn't at its best, it can make your face look a bit messy. It's tricky to use with concealer as the color difference is too noticeable. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinAtopy SkinAcne SkinSensitive SkinOct 20, 2024
I love how moisturizing it is and how well it brightens my complexion! I'm already on my second bottle. It's a bit disappointing that it doesn't provide much coverage. If it did, it would be perfect! - Hwahae UserDry SkinAcne SkinSensitive SkinOct 1, 2024
• Applies thinly but provides noticeable brightening • Beautiful pink ivory complexion (a thin layer of Dohwa cushion brightens more than multiple layers of other brightening moisturizers) • Surprisingly long-lasting! • Applies unevenly when used alone • Coverage is practically non-existent • While it lasts longer than expected, it's only suitable for short outings of 3-4 hours • Despite being a product to apply before cushion foundation, it's very drying, making it difficult to find a compatible cushion • If you want to use a lighter shade of cushion foundation but worry about darkening, try applying Dohwa first, then layering your cushion on top • Due to its drying effect, I recommend a thorough skincare routine + a hydrating base or sunscreen + Dohwa + cushion foundation combination - Hwahae UserCombination SkinSep 29, 2024
I've finally found a cushion foundation without darkening after searching high and low! I'm on my fourth compact now, and it gives such a soft-focus effect. On days when I wear this, I constantly get asked what I've done to make my complexion look so good! The coverage is practically non-existent. I have to use a separate concealer for blemishes and dark spots. It tends to pill if you apply thick layers of skincare underneath, so it's best to keep your base routine light. - Hwahae UserDry SkinJul 3, 2024
It definitely gives you a radiant complexion and has a lightweight formula The coverage seems a bit lacking. The cushion appears to dry out quickly. It's great for touch-ups throughout the day - Hwahae UserNormal SkinJun 11, 2024
I have fair skin, and the Ameli cushion doesn't darken or oxidize. The shade looks beautiful on me, so I'm really enjoying it. It's my holy grail cushion foundation! The coverage is quite sheer, so it's best suited for those who don't have any blemishes or skin concerns. If you prep your skin with a light, fresh base, this makeup applies beautifully.
