My skin is typically oily, dehydrated, and prone to blemishes, so I rarely wear makeup. However, the Cica Clear Cover Cushion effectively covers imperfections while not causing any breakouts, which I love! Plus, it doesn't significantly break down over time, so I didn't feel the need for major touch-ups.
ConsGiven how dark my complexion is, the No. 2 Vanilla shade initially seemed too light for my skin. However, as time passed, it naturally blended into my skin, so it didn't bother me much.
TipApplying a generous amount of moisturizer before using this product gives an even more hydrated feel.

I applied it as thinly as possible, and when I switched to using The Tool Lab pact on top, it worked even better. In the morning, I'd pat it on gently, only touch up my nose at lunchtime, and remove excess oil. It held up well until evening! I didn't experience any blemishes after using it.
ConsBecause it's a coverage product, it felt a bit heavy on my skin (I prefer very light application). With so many great products out there, this one was just okay for me, unfortunately.
TipThe Tool Lab! You must try it!

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.

When it breaks down, it does so more beautifully than expected. The water drop-shaped puff is useful for applying around the nose area. I didn't expect much in terms of coverage, but it's actually quite good and naturally evens out the complexion. While I still get acne regularly, I haven't experienced any major breakouts since using this product. The matte, pastel-toned case is adorably cute.
ConsThe case is a bit on the thick side. It might be drying in winter... During the changing seasons when my skin was more sensitive, there were times when my cheeks would crack a bit even after applying Physiogel. Since it's not a hydrating cushion, this seems to be the case. It would be absolutely amazing if they came out with a more moisturizing version for winter... It's a bit disappointing that there's no spare puff included.
TipSpraying some mist and patting it in increases the adherence. Be careful when first opening it, as there's a ton of foundation on the sponge. There's really so much product that if you're not careful, you might end up with a floating face effect...

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.

Even though my skin has been quite reactive lately, there was no pilling. When I suddenly developed hives on my face, I thought I'd try this cica cushion, thinking it might be okay. As expected, it didn't sting or itch, and felt comfortable! Every time I use it, I'm pleasantly surprised by how well it works for my super sensitive skin.
ConsI was a bit disappointed that the color was slightly dark. Shade 2 seems to be about a 22 in typical Korean foundation shades. It also seems to have a slight darkening effect, so those looking for a brightening moisturizer effect might want to consider this when choosing their shade.

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.

Given my sensitive, acne-prone skin, I was hesitant about base makeup but also didn't want to go bare-faced. That's when I discovered this product. Thanks to its cica ingredients, it didn't cause any blemishes on my reactive skin, which is a huge relief. That alone made me quite satisfied with the product.
ConsThe coverage and how it wears off are disappointing. Even with my combination dehydrated skin, it felt dry when applied, so I had to prep my skin thoroughly beforehand. And the puff! The puff was so subpar that I switched to my own after a few uses. Overall, this product fell short in many ways, especially in terms of adhering well to the skin and concealing imperfections.

Actually, while using this, I just moved and had a dust allergy crisis, but I didn't get any blemishes at all. Usually, every time I move, my skin becomes extremely sensitive due to allergies, so I had to be careful and take good care of it, but the fact that I only got one blemish is very satisfying. The skin appearance is just average. It doesn't make you glow or look smooth or anything like that. It evens out the skin tone and covers redness, so if you didn't have any skin issues, it would look like natural, effortless beauty. It can't cover extreme redness though. I have scars on my skin, and it did settle into them slightly, but not noticeably - you'd have to look closely in the mirror to see it. I'm actually satisfied with this level of coverage. The mint color of the cushion compact is surprisingly pretty with its translucent case.
ConsThe edges of the puff are sharply finished, so it was uncomfortable every time I did the sides of my nose. If you're someone who needs to use the edges for precise application, you'll definitely need to replace the provided puff. For a cover cushion, the coverage isn't that high. It does cover the basics though, so it's okay if you solve problem areas with concealer. Not recommended if you're obsessed with coverage.
TipRecommended for: 1. Those who want to use it without worrying about blemishes, even if it's just average while using. 2. Those with severe blemishes who still want to use a cushion, and are okay with less coverage as long as it's comfortable and helps calm their skin. 3. Those looking for an easy daily cushion that just needs to look natural. Recommended for those concerned about blemishes and wanting a natural, everyday cushion. Not recommended for those wanting high coverage, high efficiency, or a fully made-up look.
