Pros

The coverage is truly amazing... It covers everything with just a thin layer, and for larger blemishes, adding another layer provides perfect coverage. My skin is dry, and most cushions tend to look patchy, but this one doesn't and it's great. It absorbs well without pilling.

Cons

The cushion inside comes out too easily. The refill separates as soon as you open the case, it's not secured at all. Also, if you have extremely dry or dehydrated skin, you'll need to be diligent with your skincare routine to prevent it from looking patchy! (Not too much though)

Pros

My skin has a lot of blemishes and is dry, but also very oily, so finding the right cushion foundation was really challenging. When people around me suggested trying the Hero cushion, I gave it a shot. The coverage is amazing, it doesn't dry out my skin, and it's just fantastic! I love it so much that I keep a stockpile at home. It's truly a life-changing cushion foundation!

Cons

The case is really pretty, and there's absolutely nothing to complain about. You absolutely must try this!

Tip

For those who have trouble controlling the amount, try applying about two scoops with a spatula!

Pros

The Hero Cushion is really fantastic for those with combination skin! Its coverage and adherence are absolutely top-notch. I highly recommend it! It also provides sun protection, making it perfect for summer use. The best part is you don't need to slather on sunscreen separately - it's a total game-changer!

Cons

There's a possibility of darkening and a slight yellow tinge. While I didn't experience much darkening, I did notice a very subtle yellow undertone. It may vary depending on your skin type, so I'd suggest testing it out before committing to regular use.

Pros

The coverage is excellent and the case is super sturdy. It's far less suffocating than some cushions that fall apart after a slight bump to the lid. The puff seems really high-quality, and the scent was pleasant too. While in winter it might crack like the Sahara Desert if applied without skincare, it worked wonderfully in summer.

Cons

For dry skin types, it's a definite no-go in winter without a proper skincare base - it completely falls apart and cracks terribly. It also tends to oxidize quite a bit and transfers somewhat.

Pros

This product is absolutely incredible! It covers pores and uneven texture flawlessly, making your skin look perfectly smooth. It also does an amazing job at concealing blemishes.

Cons

The Clio shade 23 is a bit light for me, while the April Skin shade 23 matches my complexion perfectly. I think shade 22 would work well too. However, it has a yellow undertone, which doesn't suit my cool-toned skin very well.

Pros

This is the first cushion I've ever repurchased both the refill and the full product. The coverage is absolutely amazing! It has great staying power, covers well, and even has PA++++ sun protection... Isn't that incredible? It's like this cushion was made just for me! The complexion it gives isn't too light or too dark - it's just right, making a noticeable but natural difference. I'm completely in love with it! I'll definitely buy it again when I run out. Most importantly, it doesn't cause any blemishes! It's so fantastic, I just want to kiss it. The cushion case is beautifully simple too. The only slight downside is that it transfers a bit... but it's so pretty, I can overlook that. Everything else about it is perfect. I adore you, my hero.

Cons

There's a slight issue with transfer... But the staying power, coverage, and how well it absorbs make up for it so much that I can overlook it.

Pros

The only positive aspect I can think of for this cushion is that the case looks pretty?

Cons

Recently, many cushions have this grayish cast that's really noticeable. It doesn't even cover small blemishes, and if you try to layer concealer for more coverage, it pills immediately. Even with the same skincare routine I use for other cushions, or applying it more lightly, it still separates. You can see it breaking apart right after application! As time passes, it really breaks down in an unsightly way. The oil production is no joke either. They say to use a patting motion for touch-ups, but if you do that, it all comes off, and if you just tap it, it's beyond salvageable. This is honestly the worst cushion I've ever tried. One photo is with the regular camera, and the other is with flash - the flash photo looks similar to how it appears before touch-ups or when it's at its worst state of breakdown.

Pros

I've been using this since around this time last year. I think I've gone through about 3 bottles so far. I'm not someone who wears makeup every day, but I must say, the coverage is incredible! However, as someone with dry skin, I found it a bit uncomfortable as it caused some dead skin cells to appear around my nose.

Cons

At first when I opened it, I thought, 'Oh, no darkening!' But after about a week, the darkening becomes quite severe, even with powder applied.

Tip

Try using a fixer instead of powder.

Pros

I've been using this product for two years now, which speaks volumes about how much I love its coverage and how well it absorbs. As someone prone to blemishes, I'm impressed that its coverage is so good I don't even need to use concealer.

Cons

It's a bit disappointing that it fades slightly over time, and the coverage around the nose area could be better.

Tip

Make sure to set it with powder or use a makeup fixer for best results.
