On days when I use the oil control cushion, my makeup tends to separate and look patchy as time passes

I love how it feels light and non-sticky in the summer, leaving my skin with a soft, matte finish

글래시얼 바이옴 워터 노세범 쿠션

The amount is very small compared to the price, and the case is tiny too. Feels like it'll run out quickly.

Being a moisturizing type, dust easily sticks to the puff and doesn't come off easily.

If you fail to control the amount, it can clump up.

And most importantly, it makes your skin feel dry.

At first, you think 'hmm, it's moisturizing,' but after a while, your skin feels dehydrated.

It feels like the hydration is evaporating, leaving your skin feeling tight.

I won't be repurchasing this.

《 Review #10 - Writing for my own reference 》

Initially written: 12/29/22
To be honest, I can't think of any positive aspects...

The bulky size makes it inconvenient to carry. Being a mini size, you need to pat too much with the puff, and the mirror is small... Above all, it fails to control sebum effectively. It's not completely ineffective, but the results are really minimal...? I guess trusting advertisements isn't the way to go after all...

It's lightweight, so it's not heavy to carry around and didn't cause any skin irritation.

For best results, use it around lunchtime when your skin has produced a bit of oil - this will help maintain a matte finish until evening!

There can be some pilling if you apply it before your skin's natural oils have a chance to surface.

- Eliminates excess oil
I was skeptical about its oil-control ability due to its water-based formula, but it really does an amazing job at managing oiliness! Just dab a bit on your face, and you'll achieve a flawless, even, and perfectly matte complexion without any patchiness.
- Cooling effect
Thanks to its water-based formula, it feels incredibly refreshing when applied to the skin.
- Compact size
I love that it's smaller than regular cushions, making it super convenient to carry around.
- No darkening
Whether it's due to its oil-control properties or not, I'm thrilled that when I apply it at lunchtime, my makeup doesn't darken by evening!

1. I'd recommend spending this money on a bunch of powder compacts or blotting papers instead.
2. To prevent pilling, apply very sparingly by gently patting it onto the skin.

1. It's overpriced and not worth the money. Doesn't live up to its cost.
2. The mattifying effect is too subtle.
3. It doesn't smooth out pores or uneven texture at all.
4. If you apply too much or blend it incorrectly, it can cause your makeup to pill and come off.

1. The compact and cute case makes it convenient to carry around.
2. Despite its oil-control properties, it feels moisturizing and has a cooling effect.
3. It's a unique and innovative oil-control product unlike anything I've seen before.

When you first use it, avoid pressing the puff too hard. You'll need to adjust the amount to find what works best for you.

There are honestly no drawbacks. I'm struggling to find anything to criticize.

This cushion foundation controls oil like no other, even better than oil-control powders! The moment you pat it on, it feels cool and hydrating. It barely breaks down over time, and I've never seen a cushion that keeps shine at bay so effectively. I can't help but shower it with praise. I'm preemptively protesting against its discontinuation - please keep it in production forever!

If there's one downside, it's that the size is a bit on the small side, which is somewhat disappointing.

The Fanel Water No-Sebum Cushion isn't your typical coverage cushion, but rather a 3rd generation innovative oil-absorbing paper cushion that tackles both excess shine and deep dryness.

Instead of purified water, it's packed with glacier water. The Icelandic glacier water provides a refreshing sensation and hydration, helping to balance oil and moisture levels.

This oil-absorbing paper cushion prevents skin from looking cakey, patchy, or dry, while maintaining the oil-moisture balance. Its porous powder absorbs unnecessary oils, leaving your skin feeling fresh and matte, making it perfect for summer use.

It contains 48% of Fanel's exclusive ingredient for dehydrated skin, 'Fanel Glacial Biome™'. This proprietary blend, which includes glacier water, marine collagen, and hyaluronic acid, helps your skin become healthier on its own.

The cushion also contains ingredients that survive extreme cold without losing moisture. When applied to the skin, you can feel a cool, refreshing effect, and it helps prevent excessive oil production.

Unlike regular cushions, you don't need to pat repeatedly. Just a light tap is enough for a smooth powder finish. It's excellent at controlling excess oil, making it the ideal daily item for summer.

However, it's worth noting that this isn't a high-coverage product. After removing excess oil, you may still need to touch up areas where makeup has come off or clumped together, which can be a bit inconvenient.

As summer approaches and given my naturally oily skin type, I used to carry oil blotting papers. However, this often caused my makeup to clump or peel off unattractively, making touch-ups difficult. This product is designed for cushions, so I can lightly pat it to control excess oil, which is very convenient. It contains glacier water, which helps cool and regulate skin temperature, making it perfect for frequent use in summer.

For best results, dab this on before your final brightening moisturizer or foundation. After applying your base, just lightly pat it on areas that tend to get too shiny. This technique creates a much more natural finish.

If you apply too much, it can look a bit powdery and cakey. I really wish they'd make refills available... that would be perfect!

After using it for two days, here's my take - I already have oily skin, but in an effort to combat deep dryness, I've been applying moisturizing skincare. The result? An oil slick beyond words! While it didn't make my complexion look dirty, I just couldn't control the excess oil. But with this cushion, my skin stayed matte all day long! It's absolutely amazing... I hardly felt any deep dryness, which was fantastic. I wish I'd started using this sooner!

There's really nothing to complain about. Just please don't discontinue it so I can keep using it for a long time!

Nothing beats this for controlling oil! I just dab a little on my nose, and the matte finish lasts for hours. I plan to keep buying it - no more blotting papers needed!

This seems best suited for those with very oily skin. As someone with combination skin, I noticed it left a white cast on my face. Keep this in mind when considering the product!

The price point is quite high. While it dries nicely, it can leave the skin feeling overly dry. There's a tendency for the product to leave a white cast on applied areas (clumping of white residue).

The Icelandic glacier water in this product makes it incredibly hydrating and refreshing. Its compact size is perfect for on-the-go use. It absorbs well and quickly dries to a non-sticky finish. The product is fragrance-free and doesn't cause any irritation.
