I thought it would be super bright since it's called 'pure', but it wasn't as intense as I expected, so I used it comfortably! It seems to darken a bit over time, but apart from that, everything else is pretty decent! - Hwahae UserCombination SkinAcne SkinSensitive SkinDec 27, 2021
This cushion foundation might just end my search for the perfect one. It's become my absolute favorite! The color payoff and longevity are both excellent. Even when it starts to fade, it does so gracefully without looking patchy. The shade itself isn't particularly brightening, and there's a bit of darkening over time. You'll likely need to touch up throughout the day. - Hwahae UserDry SkinSensitive SkinJan 10, 2021
Advantages - The adherence is excellent. It instantly clings to the skin, feeling like a second skin. It's not overly sticky, so those skilled with makeup application might be able to prevent it from transferring to masks. I'd like to commend the product packaging for incorporating traditional Korean elements. Drawbacks - Due to its strong adherence, it can be quite matte and may become messy when touching up. The color isn't as bright as expected and has a noticeable yellow undertone, which is disappointing. There's also some darkening over time. Despite the matte texture, the coverage isn't particularly outstanding, so a concealer is a must! It might look beautiful on those with smooth skin. While the product packaging is pretty, its durability is somewhat lacking. The cushion puff is larger than the case, which initially made me think it was defective when I couldn't close the lid. It seems like a budget-friendly option, but it's unfortunate that refills aren't available. - Hwahae UserNormal SkinDec 11, 2020
This is one of the products from the Hanbok Project, a collaboration between rom&nd and the Korea Cultural Heritage Foundation. The concept and purpose behind it made me feel affectionate and excited even before using it. The packaging: It seems the packaging varies slightly depending on the shade, but I really liked the beige, jade-like package that evokes the image of an elegant hanbok. It's an exterior that perfectly matches the Hanbok Project theme. The color: The 01 Pure21 shade is perfect for those with skin tones between 17-21, giving a moderately bright look. I loved that it's not too yellow, but rather a natural rose-tinted color. The puff: The included puff is dense and elastic, and it works well with the product. The scent: While not overpowering, it has a cozy fragrance. Perhaps because it suits my taste, I found it pleasant to use. The application and transfer: It applies smoothly with a moisturizing feel and finishes semi-matte. It spreads thinly with good adherence, making the skin look beautiful right after application. It has a nice glow while seeming to set well without transferring much to masks. While it's not completely transfer-proof, it doesn't come off easily. The coverage: The coverage is pretty good. Personally, I'm not a fan of thick, high-coverage products. I use a separate concealer, and when I apply this cushion in thin layers, it covers most blemishes well. I wish there was a refill option available. While I liked the color and skin appearance right after application, I'm a bit disappointed that it seems to darken slightly over time. It feels like my complexion becomes subtly darker. When I first used it, I applied a bit too much, which led to some lifting after a while. I recommend applying it as thinly as possible and only layering lightly on areas that need more coverage. - Hwahae UserDry SkinAcne SkinSensitive SkinDec 11, 2020
This cushion is more on the matte side rather than being super moisturizing. It's great at covering most blemishes and redness around the nose area! It has a rose scent, which rose fragrance lovers will adore! Personally, I'm not a fan of rose scents, but that's just my preference. When you first apply the cushion, you get a cool sensation along with the rose fragrance! The case has a clean, subtle charm in an ivory color. Those who like simple designs will probably appreciate it. For me, it felt like a middle ground between matte and semi-matte. My benchmark for semi-matte is Estée Lauder Futurist. If you're looking for a matte foundation but don't want it to be too drying, this might be perfect for you! The puff lacks firmness and feels too soft and fluffy. Because of this, the application isn't as smooth as I'd like. When you pat it on, it can apply a bit thick, and when you try to blend it out, it doesn't spread easily, which was disappointing. For a shade 21, it feels a bit dark. It lacks that bright, luminous effect. The color looks naturally pretty when first applied, but it doesn't wear beautifully over time. It seems to darken a bit too. Despite the initial cool essence-like feeling when applied, it's matte and a bit drying. I have particularly dry cheeks, so that might be why I feel this way, but I also can't really notice the glowy finish they claim. If you have dry skin, you might want to apply a rich moisturizer before using this cushion! Also, this cushion looks much prettier when applied in thin layers rather than thick application. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinAcne SkinSensitive SkinDec 11, 2020
My skin is combination with dry cheeks and an oily T-zone. I have a light 21 (or 20) skin tone and prefer makeup that's half a shade lighter. I usually use products between shades 17-21. For reference, NARS Soft Matte Complete Foundation in Mont Blanc (slightly light) and Espoir Taping Cover Cushion in Vanilla (matches my skin tone) work well for me. Keep this in mind! ✔ The case is so pretty, it lifts my mood just looking at it. The built-in puff has an angled teardrop shape, making it super convenient to apply product to specific areas with the pointed end. ✔ The cooling effect is amazing! I love how it feels cool upon application while providing hydration. Even with just one thin layer, the coverage is medium to high. After application, whether due to the puff or my dry skin, the finish was pleasantly matte. ✔ The color is a safe choice. It's perfect for those with 21 skin tone, giving a natural look that matches your complexion. ✔ Despite its good coverage, it feels lightweight. Usually, high coverage can feel heavy, but not this one. Even when I reapplied to cover some redness that peeked through later, it didn't feel heavy or suffocating at all! It's so light, you feel like you could add more layers. ✔ The skin looked even better as time passed and it blended with natural oils! Right after application, it looked matte, but later it developed a beautiful glow! While I mentioned color and darkening as downsides, that's just my personal experience due to my skin tone. I'd definitely consider buying if a lighter shade becomes available! ❗ The color appeared slightly dark on my skin. It seemed close to my skin tone but a bit darker... Compared to my usual products, it was too natural and slightly dark for my liking. ❗ It significantly emphasizes dead skin cells. I do have quite a bit of flakiness, but I've never had a product highlight it this much. I'll need to focus on thorough skincare before trying again. ❗ There's slight darkening. It's not severe and blends naturally, but it's noticeable. I usually go for lighter makeup to account for darkening, but since this shade isn't light to begin with, the additional darkening made my complexion look a bit dull. This will apply like a dream after exfoliating! - Hwahae UserCombination SkinDec 6, 2020
A neutral-leaning yellow base. I thought it would be extremely bright based on the image, but it's actually a subdued shade 21. While it has slightly more coverage than typical for a cushion, don't expect full coverage. The case is simple yet elegant. This cushion seems likely to emphasize skin texture. In trying to balance coverage and glow, it tends to apply a bit thick. When applied with the puff, it's unremarkable with no standout features. Using a brush gives average results, but considering the price without refills, the value isn't great. You might be better off buying a foundation in a similar price range. It also tends to darken slightly over time.
