I have a neutral skin tone with some freckles. There are a few preferences I have for cushions: First, a pink-based formula is a must! The coverage should be a true pink base with no beige, yellow, white or gray undertones. Second, the ingredients - no more than 4 ingredients that are on the caution list of 20 ingredients and 2 allergy-causing ingredients. Third, the fragrance - either fragrance-free or a very subtle fragrance. Even if it's a nice fragrance, I can't stand strong scents or the oily cushion smell. Fourth, the formula, coverage, and brightness - low oil content, very hydrating and dewy, medium to high coverage, and a shade range from 13 to 21 that matches my skin tone. The prettier and more portable, the better. Sixth, a reasonable price - 28,000 to 32,000 won for the compact and refill, or 15,000 to 18,000 won for just the compact. Applying these preferences to this cushion: First preference is already a disappointment. For the second preference, it passes with only 3 out of the 20 caution ingredients. The third preference is also a bit iffy, so that's another disappointment. For the fourth preference, the formula seems semi-matte or matte, but it's not oily, the coverage is medium to high, and the 21 shade seems to match my skin tone. For the fifth preference, the case looks pretty and doesn't have a mirror, so no scratches. The sixth preference of price is a bit disappointing.
ConsThe color and fragrance were the most disappointing. As I mentioned earlier, I wanted a true, complete pink-based shade without any beige, yellow, white, or gray undertones. The color name was 'Rose' and the product description also indicated it would be pink, so I purchased it, but to my surprise, it was a beige color. Looking at the swatch on my wrist, the middle shade clearly appears to be beige, don't you think? Similarly, in the face swatch, it also looks beige, so I'll deduct one star. Fragrance This has the same fragrance as the Glazing Cushion. The strong herbal, lavender scent is so overpowering that I can't use it, so I'll deduct another star. Price Just like when I used the Glazing Cushion, the appropriate price for this product would be 15,000-18,000 won for a single compact, or 28,000-32,000 won for the compact plus refill. However, I purchased this online for the lowest price, and even then it was 22,100 won, which I'm disappointed about. The color and fragrance were the most disappointing, so I'll deduct a total of two stars and won't be repurchasing this.
