Given it's summer, I opted for a matte product, and this one is incredibly matte! It sets to a powder-like finish immediately after application, so there's no need for additional powder. I also love that it's a cushion, which allows for even product distribution. However, be careful when pressing down - I accidentally squeezed out too much product the first time I used it! The coverage is decent, and it doesn't cake or look unnatural.
ConsThe color is a bit disappointing. It has a very pink undertone, almost like a true pink base. Even though the shade matches my skin, which has a yellow undertone, it makes my face look slightly lighter compared to my neck. It's not glaringly obvious, but the color mismatch is noticeable. Also, being a cushion product, it tends to settle into the creases around my nose. I've only used it for a few days, but I've noticed some small blemishes appearing on my forehead. Apart from these issues, everything else about the product is great!

When I come back from school, my makeup is still intact... It's so long-lasting that I don't even need to touch up with oil-absorbing powder during breaks! It's incredible, even when I used it in summer!
ConsThe main issue is that it's a tension-type cushion. I noticed the product started running out after just 3 weeks of use. Usually, cushions last about 3 months, but this one seems to have way too little product. Also, when I first started using it, it caused blemishes and my skin broke out. Although my skin did adapt after a while and stopped reacting, the fact that it's a tension-type cushion and initially caused blemishes are the main problems.

I loved how it felt velvety smooth even without applying powder. The shade matches well, and I'm enjoying using it!
ConsI think it might have caused a few blemishes to appear. So now I'm alternating between this and another foundation.

The coverage is really impressive. I have some blemishes, and on busy days, even without concealer, while not perfect, it covers quite well. The adherence is also excellent. My base makeup doesn't usually separate, but even considering that, this product sticks to the face beautifully with a matte finish and no patchiness. The staying power is good too, lasting decently for about 7 hours, which is fantastic for a cushion foundation.
ConsI'm prone to blemishes, so I can't say for certain if it's because of this cushion, but I usually get small breakouts. However, after using this, when my skin condition drops, I notice more noticeable blemishes popping up. It could be due to hot weather or diet - skin issues stem from various factors, so I can't be definitive, but I can't say it has zero impact on my skin either. As for product-related drawbacks, it's about the longevity. It tends to fade around the sides of the nose. While it's a con, personally, I prefer this clean fade-out to a messy breakdown, as it's easier to touch up and looks neater, so I don't consider it a critical flaw. Also, I rarely use foundation, but I've tried almost all the popular drugstore cushions out there, and this seems to be the most matte. That was a plus for me and worked well, but depending on your skin type, you might want to keep this in mind!
TipI have shade 22 skin, but I really dislike when my face looks noticeably paler than the rest of me, so I usually opt for a light 23 shade after researching. I heard this product runs light, so I bought 23. While it is light for a 23, it has an extremely yellow base, which can make the skin look a bit dull. If you have a store nearby or know someone using it, I highly recommend checking the actual color in person before purchasing!

It has a matte finish, which is great for summer use. The coverage is excellent - if you moisturize well before application, it covers without emphasizing dead skin cells. The mirror is incredibly detailed (almost too much so). The magnetic closure makes it convenient to open and close.
ConsI'm not sure if it's due to this product or another new one I've tried, but I've noticed some small blemishes appearing. As I have extremely oily skin, the matte effect doesn't last long, requiring touch-ups or additional powder. It's a bit disappointing that this new release doesn't feature the Marymond collaboration.

I think its greatest advantage is how it immediately mattifies oily areas like the nose, leaving your skin feeling fresh and powdery.
ConsI actually downloaded the Hwahae app to check if this compact contained any potentially harmful ingredients. My skin isn't particularly sensitive - it's more combination-dehydrated with only the T-zone getting oily. Strangely, I started noticing small bumps appearing on my skin. I rarely get acne outside of my menstrual cycle, so I suspect some ingredients might not agree with my skin. While some praise the distinct color options, I actually find them problematic. My skin tone is slightly darker than shade 21, so I feel there should be an intermediate shade. The existing Wonder Tension Pact in shade 21 is too light for me, unfortunately.

The product applies evenly on the puff, making it easy to spread over the skin.
ConsEven though my skin isn't particularly sensitive, I noticed something off after just one day of use. The next day, after using it again and removing it at night, my face broke out in severe hives. It was unbearably itchy, and acne started popping up everywhere - my face was a mess! Despite it being advertised as a powder-finish type, I slathered on tons of moisturizer, but it still didn't feel smooth. It's extremely drying, and by afternoon, I can't even touch up my makeup because it cakes up terribly. I definitely don't recommend this!
