It gives a beautifully blurred effect on the skin. The finish is wonderfully matte and smooth.
ConsIf you don't control the amount well, it can unfortunately break down. You'll need to be careful with application to get it just right.

No irritation even for those with contact dermatitis 2. Leaves a matte finish, perfect for oily skin 3. Great coverage eliminates the need for concealer 4. Evens out the complexion beautifully
ConsThe only downside is that there are no refills available, so you have to buy the full product each time!
TipFor better adherence, tap the cushion puff once, then gently pat and spread the product on your skin.

I immediately took a photo right after opening. It seems to have the most product among all the cushions I've used so far. I felt reassured using it since it's a cica cushion. After about two weeks of use, I didn't experience any blemishes, and it's more matte than expected, so I think it would work well for those with oily skin, leaving a powder-like finish. On days I used this cushion, I didn't use any powder at all! I'd recommend this to people who want to lightly brighten their complexion.
ConsThe coverage seems quite lacking... As someone with acne scars, it didn't effectively cover redness.

As someone with combination skin, I used to blot with oil-absorbing sheets two or three times in the afternoon, but with the Cica Clear Cushion, I only need to blot once! I really liked that it wasn't too rich for my skin type. The shade also matched well with my usual 21 tone, and it didn't have any particularly strong or irritating scent - it was quite gentle! It finishes with a soft, matte feel without looking cakey or patchy. I found that patting it on worked well, and for areas with visible pores, gently rubbing it in gave a natural, even application.
ConsThe coverage isn't great, so if you have areas you want to conceal, you'll need to use a separate concealer. It also doesn't do much for pores, so I'd recommend using a pore-filling primer separately for the best results!
TipLike with other cushion foundations, it's best to use small amounts and gradually build coverage over your whole face to avoid applying it too thick.

Recommended for those who prefer a matte complexion ✓ No noticeable irritation or blemishes after use on sensitive skin ✓ Medium to high coverage. This matte-finish cushion provides good coverage ✓ Ideal shade for #21 skin tones with redness, effectively neutralizes red undertones I was lucky enough to win this in an event and thoroughly tested it. Overall, it seems like a cushion that could work well for most people. After looking into it, the price point is reasonable too, so I'll likely purchase it for personal use. Although there were some drawbacks like dryness during the transitional season when I tested it, I think it would be even more satisfying to use in summer!
ConsDue to the changing seasons, it somewhat emphasized dead skin cells and felt a bit drying. I'd recommend this more for oily skin types rather than dry skin.

It creates a beautiful skin appearance, applies smoothly with good adherence, and most importantly, covers redness well. The pore coverage was also decent. As someone with extremely sensitive skin that usually gets itchy and breaks out with blemishes when using products that don't suit me, this one caused fewer issues.
ConsThe lid is inconvenient to open and close, and initially, it's not easy to control the amount of product. Also, it's better to have low expectations for the cooling effect, as it's barely noticeable.
TipBeing a matte cushion, it seems suitable for summer use. During seasonal changes or when skin condition is poor, makeup may not adhere well, so a more thorough skincare routine is necessary. When it's difficult to control the amount, try dispensing some onto the lid or applying with a brush. Due to its matte finish, it's likely to work well for oily skin types. For those with dry skin, it's recommended to establish a more hydrating skincare base before using this product.

It sets to a powdery finish right away, and it's perfect for those quick trips out or when heading to class. It's so easy to use without much fuss! It feels just like a sun cushion... Highly recommended for summer rather than winter!
ConsHowever, because it's so lightweight... I found the coverage to be lacking. It also tended to emphasize dead skin cells. Unfortunately, after some time, it started to separate on my skin.
TipPerfect for summer! Just make sure to have a solid skincare routine as your base!

While many cushions these days are dewy, this product has a semi-matte texture that slightly controls oil, and I noticed it has a light, powdery finish without feeling thick. Perhaps because of this, there's minimal darkening and the makeup doesn't break down easily. I was considering it for light makeup when my skin is sensitive or red, but I was surprised by its good coverage for a cushion. It's more about evening out overall redness than covering blemishes, giving a soft, even complexion. Recommended for oily and sensitive skin!
ConsFirst off, it's quite light even for a shade 2. While it's good at evening out blemishes and skin tone, it tends to accentuate sensitive, flaky skin... I guess I've gotten too used to very hydrating types lately. It's okay if you smooth out any dead skin cells and apply it thinly!
TipGiven its semi-matte finish, you'll want to ensure your base skincare is well-absorbed and hydrating. The shade was a bit light for me, so I applied it thinly and patted it several times on sensitive areas like my T-zone and under-eyes where I wanted a highlight effect.

Even after hours, my face feels powder-fresh without any excess oil. The fresh finish is absolutely fantastic. What's more, knowing it's undergone sensitivity testing for reactive skin types gives me extra confidence! Usually, cushions that keep you this matte tend to be a bit harsh, but this one feels gentler on the skin thanks to that sensitivity testing. While it might be a drawback for those with dry skin, I think it would suit most other skin types perfectly! It sets quickly, which is a lifesaver for those hectic morning rushes to work. You can apply it in a flash, and once it sets, it leaves your skin feeling fresh and non-sticky, which is great. I especially love that it's not completely matte and drying, but more of a semi-matte finish - that's exactly what I prefer!
ConsThe longevity could be a bit better. The photo below shows how it looks after 5 hours of wear.

The puff is nicely firm and the overall user experience is quite satisfying. It has a semi-matte texture, but it doesn't feel heavy or cakey, so touch-ups are clean and easy. Ingredient-wise, with only two cautionary components, I'd say it ranks above average for cushions!
ConsAs someone with extremely dry skin, I didn't quite get that 'matte on the outside, hydrated on the inside' feeling that others describe. Instead, I experienced some deep dryness. Those who prefer more hydration might want to steer clear.
TipFor the best skin finish, don't apply it all at once. Instead, build it up slowly, layering small amounts onto your skin!
