I purchased this cushion in shade #3 Honey, I've noticed that Holika Holika products are a little lighter than other brands so those that are darker than #23 in other brands might not match the darkest shade. The coverage is medium, it evens out my skin tone very well. I don't have issues with blemishes but for those that need more coverage can use concealer. My skin type is normal/dry depending on the seasons and this cushion accentuates dry areas but applying facial oil before helps. Overall this is a good product but I'm not sure if I would repurchase, the price is cheap and comes with a refill!
