This friend is truly a gem.🥹🥹🥹 First, my skin is oily and in shade 21, and I prefer a dewy and natural makeup look. 1) Impressive pore coverage😍 As someone in my early 20s with wide and numerous pores, this cushion beautifully fills in those pores, with the least amount of pore clogging compared to any other cushion I've tried. 2) Incredible longevity😱 Wearing this cushion alone provides better longevity than many other cushions! When I go out, other cushions start to darken and break down within 3-4 hours, but this one still looks relatively intact even when I get home at 11 PM after going out at 12 PM. And when it does start to break down, it does so in a pretty way.😍 My friend has much better skin than me, with barely any pores in shade 21, but even when she uses foundation, her makeup is a mess by the time she gets home in the evening. In contrast, my makeup just gets a nice glow as the oil comes through, and there's minimal darkening. After using this for over a year, these are the main advantages I've experienced. Honestly, listing all the great things about it makes my mouth hurt, it's just that good.🥹🥹🥹 Just buy it, seriously.
Cons
I bought the 23rd shade because the 21st shade was too bright when I was purchasing a cushion from another brand!!!!!! If you're using the 21st shade, you must buy the 23rd shade. Otherwise, it will be too bright.
Tip
I'm writing a review to share this amazing combination. To be honest, using the cushion alone has great lasting power, but it can be a bit oily for oily skin types and can break down easily in the summer. The combination of Vanillacove primer -> Skinfood Berry Watery Sun Cream -> Medicube cushion -> Innisfree powder foundation is the perfect solution! This combo provides maximum lasting power and a beautiful, natural-looking breakdown. I only apply the powder to my forehead, nose, cheeks, and laugh lines, and adjust the powder as needed for different seasons. This is an absolute holy grail combo with long-lasting wear and a gorgeous, seamless look that doesn't require touch-ups. However, please keep in mind that skin makeup can vary greatly by individual. But this was a lifesaver for me, even during the difficult 2024 summer when I really struggled with my makeup. Just remember that the matte look is most prominent right after applying the powder, but as time passes and oils come through, the finish becomes more natural and radiant.

Wow, I really love it!!! First of all, the coverage is great, no caking, no emphasizing of dry patches, and the adhesion is amazing. The puff is so nice and dense = I'm so satisfied😘😘😘 This is truly the most satisfying cushion I've used recently. I bought it after watching a YouTube video, and to be honest, I was a bit skeptical because the person's skin was so nice, but it's really great.
Cons
There is a slight darkening, but the difference isn't extremely noticeable. It could be due to the difference in my skin tone, but I do notice a bit of darkening on me. However, since the darkening isn't too severe, it's fine with a quick touch-up in the middle.
Tip
If they happen to have a promotion where they give out multiple puffs, you should definitely grab it. The puff here is really nice and high-quality.

The case is pretty, and I can do my makeup. The advantage at this price is... actually, I'm not sure....
Cons
I guess I had too high expectations when I bought it. I usually like thin and glowy skin expressions, and I immediately ordered it when a famous YouTuber did a group purchase. Personally, when I applied it to my skin, it felt a bit heavy and dull. But it's not like the skin expression is amazing... ^_^ Well... I bought the refill too, and I'm using it, but I have no intention of repurchasing. ㅠㅠ In terms of longevity, skin expression, and color, the 5,000 won cushion from Daiso seems much better...

The skin expression is beautifully done!! It's a glow cushion, but the glow is not overly burdensome, and it finishes up nicely and tightly!! The design is also very pretty
Cons
There's nothing particularly bad, but it's a bit oily to use in the summer. Highly recommended as a cushion for dry, cold days!!!

Despite my frustration with the flaky texture caused by my dry skin, I decided to trust a popular influencer who was involved in the product's development and featured it in their video. I'm so glad I did - I'm absolutely thrilled with the results! After using a matte formula, I've switched to the glowy version for the winter, and the coverage is fantastic. It lasts really well too - the photo shows the state of my makeup 8 hours after application, including one touch-up.
Cons
I'd recommend that people with sensitive skin or those who don't get along with Medicube products avoid this. While it worked fine for me, I've seen cases where it caused breakouts for those who don't mesh well with the Medicube line.

The skin expression is pretty after application. The glow cushion has decent coverage.
Cons
As a dry-skinned person, I noticed some issues that I haven't experienced with my usual products. While the longevity is not extremely poor, the sinking and breaking down around the nose area is quite significant. Even in shade 23, there is a very pale and floating feeling (I usually use 22-23 and have a warm undertone). After using the same contouring as usual, I ended up looking like I had applied charcoal. The puff is too small... It seems to be intended for delicate application, but the feeling of uneven coverage is too strong.
Tip
I bought it without hesitation after watching a YouTuber I like, but it was a bit disappointing for my skin type.

It applies smoothly and creates a great skin texture when using a spatula, so I used it well.
Cons
I don't know why, but it caused my skin to break out in red blotches, and I haven't been using it since then.

This cushion is the first thing I reach for when I just want to apply something comfortably. It adheres to the skin in a nice, thin layer. Unless I'm really determined to put a lot of effort into my skin today, I generally just use this.
Cons
While I'm a 21 shade match, I've heard it runs quite bright, and with the brightening sunscreen I apply generously, the 23 shade works just fine for me too. It might be difficult for those with darker skin tones to use.
Tip
The puff is really great too. Beauty products are definitely worth trying out yourself - that's the only way to know what's good or bad for you!
