Unlike typical sponge cushions, this is a compact-style cushion with solid foundation. When applied to the skin, it feels incredibly moisturizing and gives a semi-matte finish! It's perfect for touch-ups. Plus, the color isn't too light and looks very natural! The weight isn't too heavy, and the thickness is just right, so it fits perfectly in a mini bag.
ConsThe coverage is slightly lacking, so it's a bit disappointing to use this alone for base makeup. That's why I usually finish with my regular cushion lightly in the morning, and then touch up in the afternoon when I feel like my makeup has worn off a bit.

When I use cushions or foundations, they tend to break down badly. As soon as I received the Lab Cera product as part of The Hwahae Testers, I tried it and found the adherence to be incredible. It doesn't break down as much, so it's become my go-to product.
Cons✓ If you apply too much product by pushing hard, it doesn't look pretty when it breaks down. Pressing it firmly into the skin while applying improves adherence! ✓ There was some slight lifting when touching up makeup.
Tip◆ Press firmly into the skin for better adherence. ◆ Instead of applying one thick layer, it looks prettier on the skin if you apply 2-3 thin layers. ◆ Use after allowing your skincare products to absorb well.

I have combination dehydrated skin with a dry U-zone and oily T-zone. When choosing foundation compacts, I always focus on products that aren't too drying but offer good coverage. Lab Cera was exactly what I was looking for! It adheres to the skin with a moisturizing feel while providing coverage as soon as you apply it. I recommend this to those who dislike matte finishes! Fair skin? No problem! My skin tone is between 17 and 21, on the fairer side. I was worried Lab Cera might be too dark since it comes in only one shade, but in my experience, it should work well for most skin tones unless you're extremely fair or dark. (If I had to specify, it's close to shade 21!) Since my skin is quite fair, it did feel slightly dark, but not noticeably so. A thin layer works great! Goodbye redness, pores, and blemishes! While I don't have severe blemishes or pores, I do struggle with redness, faint sun spots, and visible pores around my nose and butterfly zone. Lab Cera compact tackles all three of my concerns at once! It's perfect for those who dislike heavy coverage - this little wonder lightly covers redness, pores, and blemishes. Even with a light application, my skin looks amazing!
ConsSlight dullness: It's rare to find a compact that fades gracefully, but the 'grayish tone' often mentioned as a downside is something I noticed too. This seems to happen when you don't control the amount well. Instead of the color blending in over time, there's a slight dullness. Pilling issues: While it has good coverage, its high moisture content means you need to apply it with a spreading motion rather than patting it on. This improves adherence and creates a natural look, but when touching up oily areas like the nose, I experienced some pilling. The existing layer would come off, which was surprising.
TipAlways apply in thin layers! This allows for a natural, bare-faced dewy skin look. (Never apply thickly! The thicker the application, the more it pills and becomes dull.)

This product is so moisturizing that I can use less of my base products without it looking patchy, and it keeps my skin hydrated for about half a day! The color complements my complexion beautifully. However, it might be slightly dark for those who typically use shade 21.
Cons1. The packaging looks quite outdated, unfortunately. 2. The round puff makes it challenging to apply in areas like the sides of the nose. 3. When it breaks down, it doesn't look very attractive. While this is typical for moisturizing products, this one seems to lose its vitality almost like it's melting off.
TipDon't apply your base products too thickly. Use less than usual when using this! If you have oily skin, setting powder is a must!

My skin is incredibly sensitive, prone to blemishes from even the slightest misstep with emulsions or wearing masks. You could say I'm guaranteed to break out on days I wear makeup and a mask... But honestly, this stuff blew me away. Not only does it wear off beautifully, but I didn't experience any blemishes even 4 hours after application (though I only have photos from then). If anything, as it faded, it made my skin look even better! The coverage is seriously good - it applies thinly, but layers beautifully for excellent coverage without looking cakey. The puff is so bouncy I couldn't resist stretching it with my hands! This cushion truly has it all... Of course, I'll be repurchasing when I run out. Calling all sensitive-skinned nomads, come take a seat here. It's matte on the outside, hydrating on the inside!
ConsThere's really nothing bad to say... I'll have to see how it performs in summer, but I suspect it might break down quite a bit in the heat...
TipFor best results, load the puff two or three times, spread a thin layer, then layer two or three more times for truly excellent coverage.

The way it glides on so smoothly is incredibly appealing! That cool, effortless application is just fantastic. Once it's on, it creates this amazing Inner Glow that makes your skin look naturally flawless. I've even had people compliment me on how good my skin looks! The hydration lasts for ages, making my skin feel so much more comfortable - it's like I'm just wearing skincare. I finally understand why my mom always looks for essence pacts! The cushion suits me perfectly and works in perfect harmony with my skin. There's minimal pilling, so it's ideal for quickly applying before heading to work in the morning!
ConsThe downside is that since it's a hydrating base, it doesn't wear as beautifully over time. The coverage is a bit on the lighter side, and there is some transfer. The lid on the product I received seemed a bit flimsy... while trying to close the case, the lid popped open and I accidentally nicked it with my nail.
TipTouch-ups are a breeze!

It goes on thinly rather than thick, and it provides decent coverage, making morning makeup routines easier. I usually use shade 21, and the color matches subtly without being too light or dark. With a good concealer and base, you can achieve a beautiful complexion!
ConsAfter some time, it doesn't break down gracefully and tends to clump. Since it's a solid formula, you need to control the amount carefully and apply in multiple layers!
TipWhen touching up, it's nice to gently remove the old layer and reapply for that cooling sensation.

While it doesn't look heavy on the surface, I usually apply foundation very thinly, so this cushion felt a bit more substantial.
Cons- The staying power was just okay. It didn't dry out or cause any pilling or separation, and it faded rather nicely, but on my combination dehydrated skin, it became a bit oily after a while, which was slightly bothersome. Additionally, when I received the package, the case was covered in dust as if it had been sitting somewhere for a long time. It was quite disappointing to open it in that condition.
TipThis would be great for short meetups with friends or evening outings, rather than for long days out!

But what a surprise... It's moisturizing and, above all, the coverage is fantastic. I think I'll be using this a lot because of how well it covers. Coverage: Excellent Moisturizing: Superb Longevity: Good Scent: Lovely
ConsIf you apply it too thickly, it tends to break down in the afternoon. Keep your base makeup light!
TipGently pat the product onto the puff before use! It transfers quite well and provides full coverage. The photos show the before and after results in order.

It's perfect for summer use. The coverage is excellent. Here's an updated review from someone with combination skin: When I first tried this in February, my skin was dry and the product felt too matte, so I didn't recommend it. But now that summer's here, I gave it another shot. It's not drying at all, and my skin looks like porcelain! I'd recommend this for people who get a bit oily in summer but aren't extremely oily. It'll make a great summer compact foundation.
ConsIt's hard to control the amount with the puff, and it applies thickly. The matte finish can be too drying for dry or combination skin in winter. It doesn't wear off gracefully, instead clumping as it fades. The included puff and brush tend to apply it too thickly. There's only one shade available, and shade 23 is too light for many. It has a strong grayish undertone.
TipFor those with dry skin, try using a damp puff and patting it on. This helps apply a thin layer without caking. You can also use a spatula to mix some of the product with your moisturizer for a less drying application.
