I've been using Isoi since their early days, and this is the only product I've continued to use without changing. While other products caused blemishes after reformulation, this one remains my holy grail. It's lightweight when applied, and most importantly, my skin feels comfortable. Even though I usually find sunscreens itchy and suffocating, I sometimes use this product instead. Of course, the coverage is low, but it's enough that I don't have any major issues when applying makeup.
ConsThe only downside is that it runs out quickly. If you wear makeup daily, you'll find yourself going through it fast.

As someone with sensitive skin myself, it doesn't feel suffocating after application. There's no itching or burning sensation, and the built-in puff is fantastic for a beautiful skin finish... I think I'll be sticking with Isoi. The formula is incredibly lightweight with a semi-matte feel. It doesn't cause any deep dryness, and it's just perfect when applied after toner and sunscreen. I was worried about the color, but surprisingly, it's not too ashy. For those with 21-22 skin tone, it gives a healthy ivory complexion. You won't look yellow at all! While it doesn't give that flawless 'goddess-like' finish of department store foundations, it does make your skin look 1.5 times brighter and clearer. It's not about perfect coverage or brightening, but rather a product that lets you lower your expectations a bit while still protecting your skin. It's so comfortable that you won't suffer from blemishes due to frequent makeup application during commutes. And you don't have to give up on looking pretty, which I think is more than enough!
ConsI can't find any drawbacks! It's such a great value product that I'm using it preciously, hoping it won't be discontinued... Thank you Isoi for working so hard!
TipHere's a pro tip to cover slight ashiness! After applying foundation all over, use a light-colored blush to sweep over the protruding parts of your face. This includes the cheekbones, forehead, nose tip, chin, and eyelids! This will result in a much healthier and more vibrant looking face!

There are no concerning ingredients, and for the quality of the ingredients, this foundation is really satisfying. I've used it for about 2 years, purchasing over 5 bottles. I'm still using it and plan to buy it again. I highly recommend this to those with blemish-prone skin. Other foundations can feel stuffy, but this one is really lightweight.
ConsThere's only one shade, which is a bit too bright for me. But I'm still using it well. And it wears down really quickly - I must be using a lot of it. The fast wear and slightly higher price are a bit disappointing. But since I haven't found a better foundation for myself, I'll keep using it as long as it's not discontinued.
TipThe puff that comes with it works well, but using the Espoir puff applies it even more evenly.

Other cosmetics would make my skin itchy and cause breakouts the next day, but this one doesn't have any of those issues. When I apply it, the foundation and powder blend together so it goes on very lightly. Even without reading the description about not clogging pores, I can feel right away that it's not going to block my pores because it's so lightweight. Cleansing is also easy with this - other products are too oily and don't fully remove everything, but this one wipes off cleanly. I highly recommend this!
ConsSince there's only one color, it may not match your skin tone well. For me, it ended up matching after using it for a while, and the recent reformulation has reduced the pinkish tone, but there's still quite a bit of it. If you normally use around shade 23, the color probably won't work well for you. And being a natural product, the coverage isn't great. But I just use a concealer on top since a full-coverage natural foundation would be useless. Still, as I use it, my skin itself is improving so I don't need as much coverage anymore.
TipThe built-in puff is not great. It comes with two types - a powdery one and one with a handle, but I don't like either of them. I use the Filimilli cushion puff from Olive Young, and that works really well for my skin. I definitely recommend getting a separate puff, the ones that come with it are not good.

The color also looked natural and pleasant.
ConsOver time, it can feel a bit dry and slightly tacky, especially in the summer.
TipDuring use, if it feels dry, misting and reapplying lightly can help improve the feel.

It goes on very lightly. It has a bright color, but it applies more naturally than expected, so the color is pretty. For those with dry skin, if you take good care of your base, it will apply well~! The coverage is really better than I expected. Even large blemishes are well covered, and the pores too!! I usually have to use a concealer, but I don't even need it now as it covers well?? I used to wear foundation all the time because even famous cushions wouldn't cover well, but since I'm pregnant, I tried a cushion and I'm so satisfied with it~!
ConsHowever, it seems like it might get a bit messy in the summer. For those with a significant difference in skin tone between the face and neck, you might not be able to use it well ㅜㅜ

ConsEven though I don't know dryness since I'm quite oily, the color is not quite to my liking The pink base is way too much, so even though there's little difference from my original skin brightness, it looks like I'm wearing a lot of makeup

It's trouble-free and lightweight.
ConsThe price is a bit disappointing, but I buy it when it's on sale. And the refill usage.
TipThe more you pat it, the better it absorbs. After applying and waiting for an hour or two, it starts to give a subtle glow and makes me look even prettier.

I really struggled a lot when choosing a cushion. I was using the Laneige cushion, but after a while, it would cause itchiness, so I was looking for a cushion that I could settle on, and I ended up purchasing this one. First of all, the ingredients are top-notch. Even if I wear it for about 15 hours, I don't get a single blemish, and it's really sensitive-skin friendly. It also applies lightly and has less transfer than the Laneige one. I have an oily skin type, and I found that it has less of an oily feel compared to when I used the Laneige one. Surprisingly, it brightens my skin tone without any darkening, and the coverage is decent if I apply it a few times. The Laneige one made my face look puffy and the makeup look thick, but this one gives a natural tone-up effect, making my skin look genuinely good. This is definitely an advantage.
ConsHowever, this product seems suitable for people with really good skin to use lightly. And it's more recommended for summer use rather than fall/winter. Those with dry skin and large pores will likely have their pores emphasized a lot. (Added on 8.31) The coverage is not great. It doesn't cover blemishes or redness well. For women who have breakouts before their period, this won't cover at all... This is more like a light, solid sunscreen rather than a foundation. Oh, but if you layer it on a lot, the coverage does improve. In conclusion, I don't have plans to repurchase this. For those of you who are struggling, don't stress out just because the ingredients look good. If the formula doesn't suit you, just go for something else. That's what I did. (Added on 4.21) The puff!!!!!!!!! There's some hope in the puff. First of all, changing the puff makes the skin application much smoother and better.
TipIf you apply it with your hands first and then pat it with the cushion, it will apply much more naturally and provide better coverage.

The ingredients are good, so I can use it with confidence.
ConsThe coverage is not very good, and applying it multiple times causes flaking.
