The puff and mirror are both big! Though larger than regular cushions, it's still convenient to carry around. A cute smiley sun design peeks through. It feels cool on the skin thanks to its moisturizing and cooling ingredients. I like how it applies lightly without feeling heavy. A great daily sun cushion! With powerful 8-layer protection and defense against fine dust. Seems like solid protection from UV rays. It claims to prevent pigmentation - as someone whose forehead gets particularly dark every summer, I'm hopeful. Luckily, my forehead is still fine, so I'll keep using it!
ConsWhile I didn't experience any blemishes, I did have some eye irritation! It feels a bit sticky? I prefer a powdery finish, so that was slightly disappointing.

It's quite moisturizing and doesn't sting my eyes.
ConsEven when pressing firmly, it doesn't seem to pick up a huge amount of product on the puff. While it's good that you don't use an excessive amount, I thought the large puff would cover the entire face in one go, but that doesn't seem to be the case. This might be an advantage for those who prefer to apply sunscreen in thin layers.
TipTo help speed up your makeup routine, you'll need to press firmly to pick up enough product on the puff.

There's no greasiness, just a refreshing sensation like applying a lightweight hydrating gel. It's the most refreshing sunscreen I've tried, though I'm not sure how it'll perform in summer. Comparing it to Round Lab in winter, ELROEL has less oil but similar hydration. It might be even better for summer use. Hydration: I usually use Round Lab Birch Juice Sunscreen and like it, but their cushion oddly dried me out. This one is light yet doesn't feel dry after application. The light moisturizing effect shouldn't be burdensome in summer. If you like the hydration of the Birch Juice Sunscreen, you'll probably enjoy this too. The hydration level seems similar, but with less oil and a cooling effect, this one feels more moisturizing. Cooling: Great cooling effect. It feels like applying soothing aloe vera - cool and hydrating as soon as you put it on. The cooling sensation seems to last for a while, not just during application. This will be very useful in summer. Scent: I usually dislike fragranced cosmetics, but this is practically unscented. If you really sniff the cushion, there's a pleasant, natural aloe-fruit scent. No noticeable fragrance on the face, which is great for avoiding headaches. Size: It's a big cushion! Easy to apply with a few taps. While the large size isn't very portable, there's also a smaller version available on the official website. I'll probably stick with this for my sunscreen cushion needs.
ConsTone-up: I tried it before reading the product description and was surprised to see it mentioned tone-up effects. As someone with shade 22 skin, I couldn't notice any brightening at all. I thought it was just a functional cushion without tone-up. Don't expect the level of brightening described. However, when I applied it to my tanned hand (which felt like shade 25), it naturally evened out to about shade 23. It seems to work better for brightening darker skin tones, and the effect is natural! ****** Additional note Oiliness: During the Hwahae Testers period, it wasn't very hot, so it felt matte. But on slightly warmer days, it seems to produce a bit more oil. When I wore it out on a warmer day, I noticed a bit more oiliness than usual. I'll need to test it more in summer. Amount: Despite being big, it doesn't seem to contain that much product. Even after 2-3 weeks of use, it's hard to get product out. The official website says to flip it over for more product, but even then, there isn't that much.

The puff is delightfully soft and fluffy. Ideal for a quick morning application before rushing out! Highly recommended!
ConsIt doesn't seem to brighten or even out skin tone much, and feels a bit rich. Not recommended for oily skin, but could work well for dry complexions.
TipFor best results, press firmly and spread evenly, then gently pat for smooth application!

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsTrue to its name 'Big Sun Cushion', it's a large size that only takes a few dabs with the puff to cover your face. The formula has an adorable sun pattern that transfers onto your skin when you press with the puff. It has a cooling effect that feels refreshing when applied, and immediately after use, my skin felt moisturized with a slight glow. On my skin, there was hardly any white cast, and it has a floral scent added that reminds me of hair products.
ConsThe type of UV protection (physical/chemical/combination) isn't specified. The formula is quite firm, so it's not easy to pick up product with the puff - you need to press firmly. While the product description claims it has a tone-up effect that allows for foundation-free use, I couldn't see much of this effect on my thin skin with overall redness (shade 21), so it wasn't sufficient as a foundation replacement. The large size might make it a bit difficult to carry around for touch-ups. The scent itself isn't bad, but it's more reminiscent of hair products than typical skincare, which might be hit or miss for some people.

It boasts a high sun protection factor. 2. The cushion format makes it convenient to use without getting your hands messy. 3. The cooling effect is great - it's refreshing and helps reduce heat when applied after washing your face. 4. Its hydrating properties are excellent for dry skin, helping dead skin cells adhere smoothly. 5. It's a moisturizing sunscreen with a natural glow, which should minimize foundation pilling. 6. Seems suitable for various skin types including oily, dry, and combination. 7. Love that it's not sticky!
Cons1. Too large to carry around comfortably... It would have been better if it were slightly smaller in width and length, but a bit thicker. 2. For the same reason as the first point, the puff is too big, making it inconvenient when patting with three fingers as it keeps moving around. 3. Rather than a true brightening effect, it just slightly lightens the skin due to its sunscreen properties (As someone who only wears sunscreen, I would have preferred it to be a shade lighter, but this might be a plus for those who prefer a more natural look). 4. You really have to press hard to get enough product on the puff...
TipAs someone who only applies sunscreen without makeup, I'm currently using this product as a base and layering another brightening moisturizer on top! It doesn't cause pilling and since this product is so hydrating, it works well with additional layers. However, due to its large size, I'm only using it at home...

It's not sticky and doesn't leave a white cast, making it great to apply after your skincare routine. It provides a slight brightening effect, which is excellent for evening out your complexion. The smooth application prevents any pilling, which is a big plus. After application, it feels fresh and hydrating, keeping your skin moisturized for a long time. Even when reapplying, it doesn't feel heavy, making it ideal for daily use. It's waterproof and has a cooling effect that feels so refreshing. This product seems suitable for use from spring through winter.
ConsThe scent is quite strong, which might be a hit or miss for some people. While it's fragrant, when you put on a mask after applying, the scent can be a bit overwhelming.
TipI avoid applying it under my nose. Its hydrating formula also makes it great for touch-ups throughout the day.

It's moisturizing and provides great hydration. It's perfect for carrying in my makeup pouch, and I can touch up anytime, which is so convenient. I'm really satisfied that it maintains a natural complexion without any white cast. I'll definitely keep purchasing and using this product.
ConsThere weren't really any downsides to speak of. It didn't cause any blemishes, and if anything, this cushion has more advantages than disadvantages.
TipFor an extra boost in hydration, try applying the cushion after using a moisturizer. It really takes the moisture level up a notch!

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsHere's my review after using the sun cushion for about a week, which I received through The Hwahae Testers event! ✨Appearance✨ It's really big! It's even larger than my fist, so just a few taps are enough to cover your whole face! ✨Application and Absorption✨ Being a cushion-type sunscreen, it's very hydrating. It absorbs quickly too, which is great. Compared to other sunscreens, it's not sticky at all, so you can comfortably reapply it multiple times without any discomfort! ✨Cooling Effect✨ Maybe because it's so hydrating, it feels cool on your face right away! I loved how it seemed to lower my face temperature! With the hydration and temperature control, I think makeup would go on really well after applying this sun cushion! ✨Quantity✨ Given its large size, the quantity seems generous too. I think it would last even longer if refills were available! ✨Ingredients✨ The ingredient list on the Hwahae app showed one ingredient that might not be good for sensitive skin, so I used it with some concern. But even after 3-4 days of use, I didn't get any blemishes or acne! Since nothing problematic has appeared, I'm continuing to use it comfortably.
ConsBrightening Effect They claimed it had a brightening effect, but it didn't brighten my skin at all! Even after application, it just looked like my bare face.. Size The sun cushion is so big that it's only suitable for use at home. I don't wear makeup these days, so when I go out, I sometimes need to reapply sunscreen. But carrying this sun cushion around is too burdensome.. Cost and Refills As big as the sun cushion is, it's also expensive... 50,000 won.. When comparing it to other sunscreens or sun cushions, I'm not sure if it has any significant advantages that would make it worth choosing. Also, while other cushions or sun cushions offer refills, I don't think I've seen any for L'OREAL. It's disappointing that once you finish the sun cushion, you have to throw away the entire container, making it difficult to save money.

The finish gives a slight glow, making your skin look healthy. While I found the brightening effect to be subtle, it's convenient to apply with the puff when you're out and about, especially if you're wearing makeup and don't want to use your hands. I appreciated that it didn't sting my eyes. The textured inner lid makes it easy to control the amount, and the large mirror is handy for touch-ups. It's better for secondary application or touch-ups on-the-go rather than as a primary layer. The scent is quite strong, which might be a hit or miss for some.
ConsThe sponge feels quite firm, so it doesn't seem to pick up the product well with the puff. Since it's a cushion product, you might feel like you're using it up quickly when applying with the puff due to absorption. The portability isn't great.
TipThe hydrating formula is great for touch-ups, as it doesn't cake up when applied to dry or patchy areas.
