There are a few preferences I have for cushions: First, a pink-based formula is an absolute must! When applied on the face, there should be no beige, yellow, white, or gray undertones - it should be a true cool-toned pink base. Second, the ingredients: A total of 4 or fewer sensitive ingredients and allergy-caution ingredients. Third, the fragrance: I prefer either fragrance-free or a very subtle fragrance. Even if the fragrance is nice, if it is strong or if there is an oily cushion-specific scent, I cannot use it. Fourth, the formula, coverage, and brightness: A formula with minimal oil that is not greasy but still very hydrating and dewy. The coverage should be medium or higher. The brightness should match my skin, ranging from shade 13 to 21. Fifth, the cushion case design: The prettier and more portable, the better. Sixth, a reasonable price: Between 28,000-32,000 won for the full product and refill, or 15,000-18,000 won for just the full product. I am someone who cannot use a product if even one of these criteria is not met. Applying these points to this cushion: First, the color is quite disappointing. This is a downside. Second, with only 3 out of the 20 sensitive ingredients, it passes this criteria. Third, the fragrance is also quite disappointing, so this is a downside. Fourth, the formula, coverage, and brightness: I mentioned liking a formula with minimal oil that is not greasy but still very hydrating and dewy, but this product seems to have a semi-matte formula. However, the minimal oil is a positive. The coverage seems to be medium or higher. The brightness seems to be around shade 19 to 21, which matches my skin. Fifth, as seen in the photos, the case has a mirror and the brand name embossed, which looks premium and nice, so this is a pass. Sixth, I saw online that I can purchase the full product and a mini cushion together for 16,100 won, which is very reasonable, so this is a pass.
ConsThe color and fragrance are quite disappointing, and the case is somewhat unsatisfactory. Since my skin is a mess, I couldn't upload a face swatch shot, so I uploaded an arm swatch and cushion photo instead. The arm swatch was clearly closer to pink, but when applied to the face, it was a pinkish ivory color with a whitish tint. I deducted one star. The herb and lavender-like fragrance is quite strong, and sometimes it's fine, but other times it's so strong that I don't even want to smell it. After continuously smelling it, I just couldn't bear it, so I deducted another star. Lastly, the case. I wrote that the mirror case looks high-end and pretty, but on the other hand, it easily gets scratched, so it gets messy just carrying it around. I have to either put it in the cushion case or constantly wipe the case clean, which is a hassle. Since the color and fragrance were quite disappointing, I gave it 3 points and won't be repurchasing.

The color seems to be just right when applied to the 22nd tone. 🐰 There is no particular sense of dryness, but it doesn't feel particularly moisturized either - a somewhat ambiguous feeling~ 🐰 The application was good, and the expression of the finish, pore coverage, and redness coverage were also decent enough.
Cons▪️Glazed! It has a glazed feel, as the name suggests. How is it? =Later, as the oil comes out, there is a shimmery glazed feel around the nose.

I use it after applying a basic base makeup, and I'm using it because I really like the radiance. This cushion is so beautiful in terms of facial luminosity that the term 'radiance cushion' suits it well. * Longevity: As I have an oily skin type, my makeup tends to disappear quickly and my face becomes darker. But this product has very little darkening, which I particularly like. * Breakouts, etc.: I don't usually wear a lot of makeup, but when I do, I tend to get breakouts. However, since this product doesn't have much oil, I'm fortunate that it doesn't cause any acne.
ConsSince this product is quite close to a whitish color, if you apply too much, you can end up looking like a ghost, so you need to be particularly careful with the application amount.
TipI prefer to apply it by blending it only on the areas that need radiance, such as the cheeks, forehead, and nose, rather than all over the face. My face tends to become dull as the day goes on, but I really like how it keeps my skin looking bright for a long time.

No matter what I apply, it ends up looking greasy or darkening, and the skin expression is not satisfactory, so I've been a cushion nomad, but I've settled with this cushion!! The color based on shade 19 is not too bright and looks naturally radiant. If you apply a moisturizing sunscreen and then this on top, the skin expression becomes so beautiful ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ I guess you could say it looks appropriately dewy and velvety? Anyway, it makes me look like I have naturally good skin, and among the glow cushions I've tried, this has the best coverage! There also doesn't seem to be any darkening. I didn't need to retouch my makeup for about 5-6 hours, and when touch-ups were needed later, I just had to lightly dab the cushion on top without any other additional steps! I'd like to recommend this to dry and combination skin types 🥰 I hope this cushion never gets discontinued 🫶🏻🫶🏻
ConsThere wasn't really any disappointing aspect! I'm very satisfied.
TipBe sure to apply a moisturizing sunscreen first, and then put this on top!!
