However, if your blemishes are extremely dark, the coverage may not be satisfactory. But with the use of a concealer, you can achieve a beautiful coverage. In my case, by carefully covering the spots, they became blurred, though not completely covered. Of course, over time, the spots become visible again. The coverage really depends on how much effort you put into correcting and touching up. Longevity and Darkening (Breakdown): After using it for around 6 hours and 12 hours, the longevity is really good. There was some creasing in the fine lines as time passed, but it wasn't severe. Compared to the Bobbi Brown cushion, there was less of a stuffy feeling even after wearing a mask for a long time, and the accentuation of dry patches and fading/darkening was minimal. As the oil slightly surfaced, it had a nice, radiant breakdown. In fact, after 6 hours, people around me commented that my skin looked great, glowing, and healthy. Compared to the cushion I was using before, the darkening aspect is a clear winner with this Hwahae cushion. Transfer: The cushion seems to transfer quite minimally, similar to the transfer-resistant cushion foundation I was using before, which is known to be one of the best in that regard.
ConsAs for the downsides, there's really not much to point out, as it has been a very satisfactory product. But if I had to highlight something: For those with dry skin, the semi-matte formula means you'll need to be extra diligent with your skincare routine to maintain the dewy, hydrated look for longer. Due to the nature of the formula, it does have a tendency to set to a more powdery finish right away, which is something I wish could be improved, perhaps with a more hydrating version. As for the shade, since I have a skin tone that tans easily, even the 23 shade can sometimes feel a bit light for me, especially in the summer. I often end up searching for the 24 shade, which is a bit deeper. The current 23 shade of the Hwahae cushion may be a bit bright for those with truly deep 23 or 24 skin tones. For me, as a typical warm-toned 23, it still works beautifully to give a radiant look. But for those who prefer a more natural finish, perhaps a more neutral shade option would be great. These two points are really the only things I can think of that were slightly less than perfect in my experience. Other than that, I've been using it with immense satisfaction!
TipThis is a truly golden tip, especially for those with dry skin! Let me share a great skincare routine that will keep your skin hydrated and ready to use the Hwahae cushion: Cleansing > Aloe Gel > Toner > Emulsion > Mist Follow this order and apply each step thoroughly. This will keep your skin super moisturized and dewy all day long! You can also check out my Instagram @i_nar_makeup for the full skincare routine details - it will be even more helpful. And another tip - if you find the cushion transferring a bit too much on your mask, be sure to use a powder or blush. I personally prefer using blush over powder, and the Hwahae cushion applies blush so beautifully without any cakiness. I've been rediscovering my blush collection lately because of this cushion! Blush is a must, everyone! Please use blush if you're using the Hwahae cushion. It creates such a lovely, natural flush that I almost don't want to share this secret. But I have to - the difference it makes is incredible. I'm so ashamed I didn't utilize blush properly before. Time to make up for lost time!

I bought the #23 shade since the #21 was sold out, and even though it's a bit too dark for my normal #22 skin tone, I really like it and wanted to leave a review. :) 1. Application - The application is great. It applies very smoothly and moisturizes well, with a semi-matte finish. It's the type that builds up nicely with just a light layer, so the application is wonderful. It doesn't apply too thickly either, which I'm very satisfied with. 2. Coverage - The pore and redness coverage is excellent. However, for more stubborn blemishes or dark spots, you may need to layer it a bit more or use a concealer. The pore coverage is impressive, but the overall coverage isn't the highest. If you're looking for full, heavy coverage, this may not be the best, but I'm personally very satisfied with it. 3. Wear and Transfer - No cushion foundation is completely transfer-proof, but this one transfers less when applied lightly. Adding powder helps minimize transfer even further. If you layer it on thicker or use concealer, it will transfer more. But I didn't experience any noticeable darkening or breakdown. For my combination skin, it wears beautifully - the oily areas look clean and the drier areas have a nice, natural glow. I really value how it wears throughout the day, and it's great for touch-ups too. The way it reapplies is seamless, even if you've developed some flakiness.
ConsThe only downsides are that the cushion case is a bit thick, and the puff dispenses a lot of product at once, so you have to press it lightly to control the amount. Other than that, I don't have any complaints about the cushion itself. In fact, it's been one of the best cushions I've used lately, so I don't regret purchasing it at all!

The application and adherence are incredibly good. Even though I have an extremely sensitive skin type, I didn't experience any irritation, and there were 3 potentially allergenic ingredients, so it's a good idea to check that before purchasing.
ConsIt applies a bit thinly, so it's good to use with a concealer! While some say the coverage is too powdery, I found it to be on the lighter side for my preferences!!
TipPowder application helps it barely transfer onto masks!!
