They said shade 23 wasn't too dark, so I tried it even though I usually use 21-22 from other brands. But shade 23 feels more like a 22. It's a very dark color, not like a true 23.
In the summer, my face and neck tend to get a bit tanned compared to winter, so I use 22, and in winter I use 21. ^^;;

The price. The high price is disappointing...

The cushions I've used before were moisturizing and gave a glowy look to the skin, but the coverage was too weak, which was disappointing. This product, however, has amazing coverage, like applying foundation.
It's not a powder, foundation, or concealer...
It's the ultimate coverage cushion among cushions. ^^

If you have dry skin or have built a solid skincare routine,
your skin may look too dry or matte.
As for me, I layered toner, essence, cream, and oil, and then applied toner, essence, and moisturizer again after waking up, so my skin didn't look dry.
I compared this Dr. Elsia cushion, which covers half my face, with a cushion that gives a dewy, glowy look on the other half, in terms of radiance (color), coverage, and case design.
The result was that the competitor's cushion, which claims to be more moisturizing, looked more radiant and glowy. This product has a neat, clean feel. It covers perfectly without any shimmer.

It's better to discard the included cushion puff and use a different puff or brush to apply the product.

👎Cons👎

-The dewy finish can lead to some transfer and smudging
(It's expected to wipe off completely when wearing a mask)
There is also some sticking and scratching from hair.

-The coverage is good, but it can apply thickly and feel heavy (this is not an issue of using too much product).

-Touching up can be risky, as it may result in a cakey appearance (touch-ups are difficult).

-The initial luminous look is beautiful, but it can become dry or emphasize skin texture differences, leading to lifting, especially when there are significant temperature changes.

I bought this after reading a few reviews on the company's website, and they were all very positive.
❤️Pros❤️
-Excellent adherence and smooth application
👉This cushion does not cling to or emphasize textural issues, making it suitable for various skin types (except oily skin) and skin conditions. It applies smoothly and quickly, making it great for daily use and busy schedules.

-There is minimal slippage or lifting when first applied.

-It has excellent coverage like foundation.

-This is a great glowy and hydrating cushion for winter use.
(On the second day of wearing it, people around me commented on how beautiful the natural glow looked and asked what cushion I was using.)

-The base has no yellow undertones, which I like.
(However, over time, a grayish tone can appear, making the complexion look dull.)

-The cushion provides good value for the price, with ample product.

-The slim, square compact design is attractive and easy to carry in a small bag.

-The price is reasonable for the product (I remember buying it for around 20,000 won, including the refill).

The case gets fingerprints easily?? And I wish there were more variety of options!

The coverage, adhesion, and application were all great! I received this cushion compact as a gift and I love it so much ㅠㅠ Since I have dry skin, I usually switch to a more moisturizing cushion during the winter or dry seasons, but I plan to stick with this cushion for a while!! The packaging is also sophisticated and luxurious...I highly recommend it as a gift as well! ㅋㅋ

I'm not sure if that's the case for everyone, but it was nice that they gave two puffs when I bought it through Naver Pay :)

There was nothing disappointing for me at all. 😊🙌💕

The coverage was also good, and it fit my dry and sensitive skin really well.
People around me kept asking where this case is from, it's so pretty...
It's the best, I've been using it for a long time now. 💙

Hmm.. If only the coverage was just a bit higher..? And the longevity a little more..?

The coverage is just slightly lacking, but the spreadability and other aspects are all good!

After applying it evenly, gently pat it in, and use a finishing powder for a perfect coverage.

The case tends to show fingerprints easily.
You'll need to use a concealer to achieve a more full coverage look.
Personally, I prefer a water-drop shaped puff, where the wider part can be used for larger areas and the narrower part for more contoured areas. I think a water-drop shaped puff would be even better.
Also, I think a rubber grip on the puff handle would make it more comfortable to hold.
And there is a slight transfer.

My skin was originally quite dry, and since I work in a place where the heater is on for long hours during the winter, my face became very dry from being near it for about 8 hours a day. I was very concerned about my skin condition.
So I decided to try this product.

The case looks very premium and neat.

When you open it, there is a rubber gasket around the inner lid, so if you close it carefully after use, it won't dry out easily.
The cushion is not pre-soaked, but it's quite firm. If you press it lightly, the foundation comes out nicely. The firm feel makes it easy to control the amount.

The mocha puff is soft and spongy. When you dip the puff in the foundation, it applies evenly. And when you apply it on the face, it covers thoroughly while providing a cooling sensation, so it applies smoothly without any patchiness.
The puff is so soft that it doesn't irritate the skin at all.
After applying, it doesn't get overly shiny, but has a nice, subtle glow, and my skin texture looks naturally refined.
It covers blemishes, freckles, and redness well, and isn't overly sticky despite the moisturizing effect.
There's also no creasing around the nose area.
I was worried that shade 23 might be too dark, but it applies brightly and naturally.
It stays dewy without getting cakey over time.

I think this would be a great match for people with dry or combination skin types, especially in the winter.
For oily skin types, it could work well in the other seasons besides summer.
I confidently recommend this product to people with dry skin like mine.

On particularly dry days, I find it helpful to mix in a drop or two of facial oil with the cushion before application. Let it absorb for a bit before applying the cushion, as applying the cushion right after the oil can sometimes cause patchiness or cakiness.

It would be great if the brand sold a separate puff to go with the cushion. The one that comes with it gets dirty quickly, and I feel like using the brand's own puff would be the best match for this cushion.

From luxury cushions praised for their quality to YouTuber recommendations and social media favorites, I've tried them all, but never quite found the right fit. That is, until I happened to test out the Sikor cushion by chance and instantly fell in love. It's become my holy grail product. The coverage is great, yet it still leaves a dewy, moisturized finish. It works well in both summer and winter, and is especially impressive during transitional weather when makeup often tends to break up and slip. But with this cushion, it never cakes or creases, and touch-ups look seamless. Even my mom, who doesn't usually use cushions, tried mine one day and immediately asked me to get her one too. I'm sticking with this cushion going forward. It's a good reminder that no matter how many recommendations you get, a product has to truly work for your individual skin. I'd suggest always testing in-store before purchasing, rather than blindly buying based on hype. It's a shame I wasted money on expensive products that didn't end up suiting me.

For those who don't react to the aloe ingredient, it would be a perfect match ㅠㅠ
The product itself is good!

I'm really so upset..
It's not even a different ingredient, but because of the aloe leaf ingredient, I used this cushion for 3 days in a row and pimples came up from my nose to my forehead..
The skin expression is really good, but since I'm so incompatible with aloe, I can't use it ㅜㅜ
It was the same with Clio too, it's really such a shame ㅜㅜ
And over time, it gets a bit dry!

The skin expression is really great and so beautiful
The longevity is a bit lacking, but it doesn't crumble away strangely at all haha

Apply foundation, then powder, and dab on top. It's amazing, but a bit thick. Just keep that in mind.

I occasionally get breakouts, and even the 23 shade is a bit too bright for me. I wish the color was just a tad darker.

This product has amazing coverage, great for large pores, redness, and acne. It also has incredible lasting power.

I'm not dry-skinned, but this cushion feels a bit drying on me. I need to prep my skin well and spritz some mist on the puff before applying for it to work a bit better.

The adhesion seems good. It applies nicely and looks radiant.
