Pros
My dry/sensitive skin doesn't get irritated and stays moisturized, so it's great to use in the winter.
Cons
As the seasons change, my skin has been getting too oily and breaking down, so I'm looking to switch products. I'll be going back to it again in the winter.

Pros
This cushion is nice and easy to use, so I repurchased it and have been using it. Especially, I haven't had any breakouts since using this, so I've been using it well!
Cons
Since it's for oily skin, it can get a bit shiny. If you don't use powder, the oil on your nose is no joke..ㅠ

Pros
The coverage is absolutely incredible!!!!! I've been struggling a lot with teenage acne, but it completely covers the pigmentation as well. My skin looks so much better.
Cons
It transfers way too much... Just lightly dabbing with a tissue makes it immediately transfer... After applying, the oil starts coming up and it wears off within 1-2 hours.. The emphasis on dry patches starts getting worse during this time and the longevity is extremely weak. It disappears in about 2 hours, so even if I try to touch it up, the dry patches are still very prominent.
Tip
I think I'll need to get professional exfoliation treatment at a dermatologist to survive this.

Pros
Positive Points 1. It really well concealed my severe acne, it's amazing... 2. Surprisingly, after using this, my skin actually got better(?) Haha, I'm not joking, it's true... 3. It's worth every penny, I would 100% repurchase it 4. My friends said my skin looks so much better and prettier 5. It applies thinly and looks so beautiful
Cons
Drawbacks 1. Over time, some oil comes through, but using blotting paper and reapplying fixes it 2. It clings a bit to my nose 3. There is some emphasis on dry patches, so it's best to exfoliate the day before applying makeup

Pros
I was persuaded to purchase this product due to the claim that it is a moisturizing cushion that is also suitable for oily skin types. (I normally use shades around 20-21, but I purchased 23 as recommended and it fits perfectly!) The main advantage is that it does an excellent job of evening out the skin tone. It smoothens out any reddish blemished areas nicely. This contributes to the product having quite good coverage. Later on, when a sheen starts to appear, a quick dab with the puff helps to quickly mattify it, and the skin itself looks smoother in texture. It also helps to conceal pores to a certain degree. It doesn't feel heavy or cakey, and blends well into the skin over time.
Cons
The sheen that builds up over time may feel too shiny and greasy for those sensitive to such a finish. Applying some powder to unnecessary areas could help. I also found that it tends to settle a bit around the nose area. However, a quick touch-up with the puff helps to fix that. It may be too much for oily skin types, especially in warmer weather.

Pros
Since it's a serum cushion, my skin doesn't feel stuffy or uncomfortable. I'm a fall warm deep-toned person, and the 23 shade applies nicely and brightly, so the tone is good. There also doesn't seem to be much darkening. I have oily skin, so I used to use a semi-matte cushion, but when I started using the serum cushion, the shiny look bothered me, so I've been using it by always applying powder at the end. However, the skin expression is so good that I'm using it diligently even though I have to use powder...ㅎ The powder also pairs well with it, so I like it.
Cons
Since my skin tends to get oily, if I use it without powder, it feels like an oil explosion! So while touch-ups aren't difficult, I personally have a bit of a shiny feeling.
Tip
For those who like semi-matte or matte formulas, it's fine to use it by applying powder.

Pros
✅ I recently purchased a cushion foundation from Olive Young after testing it out. I'm really pleased with the matte finish and lightweight application. The best part is that it doesn't feel heavy or sticky on my skin. The color matches my skin tone very well, so I feel like it was a successful purchase. Since I've been using a lot of cica-based skincare, I don't have any aversion to the cica in this product and it doesn't irritate my skin at all. It just feels incredibly lightweight. Even though the coverage isn't super high, it evens out my skin tone well and helps cover some blemishes. But the coverage is quite sheer overall.
Cons
The coverage is a bit lacking, especially for someone like me with a lot of blemishes and uneven skin tone. I also noticed some pilling around my pores and accentuation of dry patches. The wear time is quite short as well - even in this cooler weather, not just the hot summer, it doesn't last very long on my skin. Trying to touch it up just makes the pilling and emphasizing of pores/texture even worse. Over time, it also starts to get a bit greasy and sticky-looking on my face. And no matter how I apply it, whether patting or buffing, it always ends up transferring a lot onto my mask. Overall, the pore accentuation, short wear time, and transfer issues are the main downsides for me.

It was just right, not too dark and not too bright. It didn't glare.
Cons
Even after a little while, the oiliness and greasiness became too much.

Pros
The initial application gives a luxurious glow and beautiful skin expression! But it's not too sticky and doesn't transfer too much to the mask either.
Cons
Over time, it seems like oil comes up ㅠㅠ.. You need blotting paper or powder in between.

Pros
Although it's shade 23, it's not too dark and applies smoothly without any patchiness. It provides moderate coverage while giving a natural glow, making my skin look really beautiful. Over time, it does mix with oil and melt, but I really dislike when makeup clings to dry patches and breaks down, so this is much better for me.
Cons
The serum cushion itself has a generous oil content, and perhaps due to my own oily skin, I find the makeup tends to break down and require more frequent touch-ups compared to other cushions.
