It's powdery but quickly breaks down and has clumping and darkening.

It's amazing. It's truly amazing. I've been using Nosebeam powder for about 10 years, applying concealer and cushion foundation, and then always finishing with powder. Of course, I've tried various powders in between, but I couldn't really tell the difference, so I kept going back to Nosebeam. Until I discovered this - its nickname is 'Feather Powder'... I wondered why this powder is so highly recommended even at makeup shops, so I tested it at Olive Young. About 2 hours later, when I got home and looked in the mirror, I realized - where are my pores? Seeing my pores magically covered and my makeup staying put so smoothly, I immediately placed an online order. After using it for about 3 weeks, I can definitely say that it sets the makeup and covers the pores like magic, and it's worth more than the price. You must try it.
Cons
They don't have good sales, but if they do have a sale, you should buy it right away.
Tip
If you also use a setting spray, your makeup will last for 12 hours without a hitch.

As time goes by, my combination skin with T-zone and U-zone oiliness keeps getting more complex. Using this in the final steps of base makeup application helps extend the wear of my base and boosts the color payoff of my color cosmetics. It's a cushion-type product, not a loose powder, so it's easy to use and convenient to retouch. Just dab it on once in the morning and again around lunchtime. When my skin gets oily, my pores become more visible, but pressing on this powder mattifies everything perfectly. I used to use a white powder compact, which would make my skin look ashy, but this product has a color similar to my skin tone, so it blends in seamlessly without any white cast. As we approach the sweaty, oily summer months, I think this would be a great investment to help control my skin. It's fragrance-free, and while I didn't press on the formula, it seems to have a finely-milled powder texture. And the packaging is just so pretty - I was so pleased with it the moment I received it. The color scheme makes me happy every time I look at it.
Cons
Honestly, I didn't have any major disappointments with this product. If I had to nitpick, I suppose it could emphasize any texture on the skin when using a matte base.
Tip
When retouching, just blot with some oil-blotting paper first, then apply the powder to finish the look - it'll be just like when you first applied it.

Even though it's a powder, there was no dryness at all when I applied it as the final step in my makeup routine to remove excess oil! My skin has been quite dry lately, so I wasn't using powder much, and I was wondering if it would be okay for the seasonal change, but there was no dryness or cakiness, so it's been great to use lightly. It's a compact type, but it seems to cover pores well and make my skin tone smooth, so I think it will be a must-have for summer.
Cons
When applying with the puff, you have to be careful not to make it look too thick, so you'll need to control the amount.
Tip
I found that using a brush to apply the airy powder lightly works better than the puff that comes with it, so I've been utilizing that.

Design I'm a user of both Hince cushions and lip products. First of all, the Hince packaging and design are so beautiful... I tend not to buy products if I don't like the design, but Hince's design is just gorgeous. The cushion design was also pretty, but the powder case is even prettier. It's not pink, and not violet either, but has a mysterious in-between feel. I want to give Hince's aesthetic a high score just by itself. Usage I was going to buy the ㅇㅂㅇㅌ powder, but fortunately I was able to use Hince powder. I could definitely see that it covered up some of the bumps and redness a bit. It felt like my pores were blurred and filled in, which I liked. As the weather got a lot hotter, I felt like my skin's oil was coming up faster than before, but with the powder application, I could confirm that my makeup lasted longer.
Cons
If you use skincare and sun care too heavily, the makeup can break down and become patchy and uneven. This seems to be an issue in the previous step. I found the shade match well, but I think it may be limited for those with skin that is too fair or too deep.
Tip
After picking up the product with the puff, dab it onto the back of your hand to distribute it evenly, then apply it thinly to your face.

I used to use Makeup Forever powder exclusively, but I accidentally tried Hince Second Skin Airy Powder in the beige shade and was extremely satisfied with it. It's incredibly lightweight and effectively controls oil. The beige color is not too noticeable. It looks like I just applied a transparent powder, but it gives a subtle radiant glow, so I was much more satisfied than I expected. I used a brush, but since it has a built-in puff, it would be great to carry around for touch-ups when going out. It doesn't cake or flake no matter how much I apply.
Cons
There were no issues! I really like it. I think it will work well as a portable powder.

I first learned about Hince through the Hince Mesh Mat Cushion, and I've been using it quite well. So I also tried the powder, which I had high expectations for. In terms of the semi-matte cushion, it properly controls the shiny areas. Especially for areas with a lot of oil like the forehead and nose, it doesn't look cakey and stays clean. The 18 shade light-colored foundation blends in naturally with the beige tone, if I may say so. With the light-colored foundation, I can achieve a calm and elegant look without having to give up the bright shade. This was the most satisfying part! The color is elegant, not a tacky yellow or simply pale. It also provides some skin texture smoothing and pore coverage.
Cons
However, the built-in puff is quite disappointing... It doesn't have that 'hugging' feeling on the skin, but rather just skims over the surface. This is the most disappointing part. In fact, there are so many great powder products out there that this one doesn't really stand out in terms of competitiveness. It's just so-so, so the puff is really crucial. For dry-skinned people who use the semi-matte cushion, the powder can look cakey on dry areas like the cheeks, so make sure your skincare is sufficient for a beautiful result!

*I've tested the product for over a week and this is my short review. I have skin tone 22 and usually use 21, and my skin type is combination leaning towards dry! ✔Texture ⭐⭐⭐⭐ True to its name 'Airy Pact', the texture is lightweight and has good adherence. It has a slightly powdery feel, but it's still smooth when applied with fingers, making it easy to control the amount. ✔Packaging ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The packaging is so beautiful that it's impossible to overlook! The pact case has a lovely muted pink color with a luxurious glossy accent - it's truly gorgeous. The size is a bit smaller than the palm of my hand, but the low height makes it very convenient to carry in a pouch (the hygiene cap is also a great touch...ㅠㅠ) ✔Tone Base ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ As my skin tone is a bit darker at 22, I was worried that the coverage might be too heavy and look unnatural. But the base blended perfectly with my skin tone. It has a yellow undertone, but the yellow tint is not overpowering, just gently brightening and refining the complexion. ✔Fragrance ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ It's fragrance-free, so even those sensitive to scents can use it comfortably. ✔Longevity ⭐⭐⭐ The longevity is just average. Since the texture is lightweight and easy to control, it doesn't apply too thickly. So it's more suitable for touch-ups rather than providing full, long-lasting coverage. ✔Dryness ⭐⭐⭐⭐ I only felt a slight dryness when my skin was a bit heated, but otherwise, the lightweight formula didn't cause any dryness issues for my dry-combination skin.
Cons
One downside is that over time, there was some creasing and the durability doesn't seem extremely good. This is based on my experience of using it while moving around for a week.

1. Smooth Application I used to avoid using powder because it would create a lot of cracks on my skin, but this product, true to its name of 'Airy Powder', applies thinly and lightly without looking cakey. I think it will be great to use in the hot and makeup-melting summer. 2. Puff Normally when I buy powder, the puff is too thin or absorbs too much powder, so I always end up using a brush. But the puff that came with the Hince Powder was just perfect. It has a nice thickness and silky texture, and it works really well with the powder. The application felt pleasant to use. You can fold the puff in half to pick up and apply the powder more lightly. 3. Blurring It was very effective in blurring my pores and uneven texture. If you want to experience this blurring effect, using the puff is a must!
Cons
1. Tone Correction I was really concerned about my uneven skin tone, and when I saw the product description saying it 'creates a flawless skin tone', I had high expectations for this. But I didn't see the effect I was hoping for in terms of tone correction. It feels more like a blurring effect rather than true tone correction. 2. Size Powder compacts are usually used for touch-ups when going out, but this powder compact is quite large in size. My friend even asked if it was a cushion compact. The large size takes up a lot of space in my makeup bag, which is a bit disappointing.

It seems like you paid close attention to the case, which I appreciate :) Usually, when you drop this type of cosmetic, the shock can cause the puff to fall to the ground, but this product didn't have that issue, which was great. I applied the mattifying sunscreen without any oiliness, and there were no white cast areas, which was nice (for my combination skin). It didn't make my skin look greasy and helped control the oil, so I think it will be very useful for the upcoming summer! I also liked the environmentally-friendly shipping box and packaging.
Cons
While it claims to even out the uneven skin tone, I didn't feel that effect :( At the retail price of 29,000 won, I didn't feel it was worth the value :( It seems useful for oil control, but I didn't experience any additional benefits, and I don't think I would buy it for 29,000 won going forward.
Tip
I found that I preferred using a brush over a puff. The brush allowed me to be more precise in targeting the areas where I tend to get oily. (I used the brush at home and the puff when I was out and about.)
