ConsThe coverage is completely inadequate, it's dark, and the darkening effect is extreme, so I don't recommend it.

It applies thinly while providing definite coverage, beautifully concealing blemishes and refining skin texture. Fresh finish: With a semi-matte finish and no shine, it gives a clean skin appearance. It's especially long-lasting in summer without worrying about sweat and excess oil. Moisture-rich: The skin doesn't feel tight, but stays hydrated~ Even in dry seasons, I could use it without worrying about deep dryness! Color variety: Thanks to diverse color options for both warm and cool tones, it was easy to find the perfect shade for me.
ConsNon-refillable: If we consider eco-friendliness, this is slightly disappointing! It would be better if it was also available in refillable form. Puff size: The puff felt a bit large, making it somewhat difficult to apply in detailed areas, such as around the nose.
Tip1. Layer thinly multiple times: Applying too much at once can cause pilling. Creating a smoother skin appearance is possible by layering small amounts several times. 2. Use with a finishing powder: If you want to increase longevity, lightly dust on some powder. 3. Puff maintenance: Regularly cleaning the puff allows for a cleaner application of the cushion contents and can prevent skin blemishes!

Usually, I always need to finish with powder, but I was satisfied that my skin didn't feel dry and had a matte finish without needing powder. The coverage is also decently good.
ConsIt seemed to settle into the creases around my nose too quickly, and when I tried to apply concealer over this cushion, it caused pilling, so it's probably not suitable for touch-ups either. It also emphasized texture, making my skin look a bit bumpy.

I loved it! The staying power is decent, and there's no darkening at all. It's truly my holy grail cushion!
ConsIt doesn't cover redness very well, so you definitely need to use a concealer...
TipI first cover any problem areas with concealer, then apply the Etude cushion, and it works wonders! For those with oily skin, if you put a bit more effort into your skincare routine, I think you'll find it works great!

For very dry skin or those needing high coverage, it might not be ideal. The semi-matte finish explains why it's commonly recommended for combination dehydrated skin by other users who've tried it. As someone with winter-induced redness and dryness, I felt a slight dryness and noticed some lifting and breakdown after 3-4 hours, which was disappointing. However, I expect it to be popular among oily to combination dehydrated skin types. Dry skin folks might reach for this cushion in summer! Color (Shade 21) / Coverage ~ Color: Typical shade 21, but with an ivory base giving a clear complexion ✓ Might be a bit light for those who use 22-23, and slightly bright for 21-22 users ~ Coverage: Medium to high ✓ Covers most blemishes well, especially effective on pores (except very deep ones). Pre-concealing needed for redness, dark under-eye circles, or dark freckles. Application/Pilling/Longevity ~ Even with just one pat on the opposite side of the cushion after opening, it applies lightly without feeling thick when dabbed on cheeks. For a semi-matte, it has a slight moisturizing feel rather than being dry or heavy. It's light enough to allow for easy layering in areas needing more coverage. ~ As many reviews mention, it excels at pore coverage, naturally filling in pores on the nose and T-zone (except for deep ones near the nose). The smooth application also helps cover pores and fine lines, giving an overall improved skin texture appearance. ~ Longevity: Medium to high ✓ In heated indoor environments, it lasts 6-8 hours without major breakdown on areas without redness. However, on areas with redness that tend to be drier, it lasts about 3-4 hours. When it does break down (except on very warm areas), it fades gracefully rather than caking or looking unsightly (more like the color slightly fading away).
ConsWhile this cushion seems perfect for summer use, it might be challenging for those with dry skin to use in winter when the air is dry from heating. Other than that, it's a satisfying product.

It goes on incredibly thin, and both the adherence and color are quite nice and pretty. The coverage is not bad at all for this level! There's a slight darkening effect, and the staying power isn't bad when set with powder. However, since the cushion itself is extremely powdery, you need to be careful when applying additional powder as it might cake up if you're not careful.
ConsThis cushion seems to work well only when your skin is in good condition. When I applied it during my period and when my skin was acting up, it severely emphasized dead skin cells. Around my nose and eye area, it caked up and separated so badly that I had to wash it off and reapply. For those with dry skin, I recommend having a solid skincare routine before applying this. I wonder if Etude products just don't suit me... I won't be repurchasing.
