Ohui Ultimate

OHUI Ultimate includes four distinct primers, each addressing a different base concern. The Ultimate Brightening Primer 45ml and the Ultimate Brightening Green Primer 45ml both target dullness and uneven tone, but the Green Primer's color-correcting tint helps neutralize redness specifically - useful for skin with diffuse redness or visible capillaries. The Brightening Primer is the neutral-toned brightening option without color correction.

The Ultimate Brightening Pore Care Primer 45ml addresses texture and pore appearance alongside brightening - the 'Pore Care' designation indicates a smoothing base that minimizes the look of large pores, which makes it the better choice for combination or oily skin types who need the base to reduce visible pore texture before foundation. The Ultimate Cover Primer 30ml is the smallest in the lineup at 30ml and focuses on coverage preparation - creating a more uniform base for the cushion foundations that follow. All four are full-size primers at practical daily volumes.

Korean cushion foundations are a format OHUI was involved in developing as a brand category, so the Ultimate line's cushion range reflects mature formula development. Four variants are available in this collection. The Ultimate Cover Mesh Cushion 13g uses a mesh sponge applicator (rather than a saturated foam puff) that delivers more controlled, buildable coverage - the mesh meters out the product more precisely, which helps avoid over-application on less-textured skin. It is available with a standalone refill (Ultimate Cover Mesh Cushion Refill 13g), which reduces per-use cost significantly.

The Lifting Ultimate Cover Cushion 15g combines coverage with ingredients targeting skin firmness - the 'Lifting' label indicates a formula addition that provides a temporary tensing or lifting effect on the skin surface. The Moisture Ultimate Cover Cushion 15g is the hydration-focused variant, suited to drier or dehydrated skin that needs moisture replenishment throughout the day from the foundation itself. The Ultimate Fit Long Wear Jean Cushion 15g is the longest-wear option in the lineup - the 'Jean' name in Korean cushion branding typically refers to a matte or satin finish that extends wear time without mid-day oxidation, suited for oilier skin or long-wear occasions.

The Ultimate Cover Stick Foundation 15g is the only non-cushion foundation format in this collection. Stick foundations deliver higher-coverage, more buildable application than a cushion - useful for spot concealment, full-coverage base when a cushion would be sheerer, or for travel when carrying a case and puff is impractical. At 15g, it is a standard stick foundation size suited for one to two months of daily full-face use or several months of spot application.

Stick foundations in the Korean prestige tier are typically formulated to be non-creasing and long-wearing; the OHUI Ultimate Cover Stick sits in that tradition. Set with a powder or the Day Shield Sun Powder from the Day Shield line for extended wear.

The Ultimate Cover Mesh Cushion Refill 13g is a replacement cartridge for the Ultimate Cover Mesh Cushion case. Korean cushion foundations are designed with this refill model in mind - the compact case and puff applicator are durable, and replacing only the cartridge generates less packaging waste and costs less per refill than buying a full cushion. If you already own the Mesh Cushion case, the 13g refill is the better ongoing purchase.

The refill fits the Mesh Cushion case directly. Most Korean cushion refills are brand-specific and not cross-compatible, so confirm the refill matches the case model before purchasing. First-time buyers should start with the full cushion (case + refill) and use refills from the second purchase onward.

The OHUI Ultimate primers and cushions are formulated to work together, and pairing the right primer with the right cushion creates noticeably better results than using a cushion alone. For a brightening all-day base, the Brightening Primer under the Moisture Ultimate Cover Cushion is a common pairing - the primer adds luminosity, the cushion adds a hydrating base that keeps the look fresh through the day.

For oily skin prone to mid-day shine, the Pore Care Primer under the Fit Long Wear Jean Cushion addresses both pore texture and wear duration. For skin with visible redness or uneven tone, the Green Primer corrects the base before the Coverage Mesh Cushion adds even coverage. The Cover Primer 30ml paired with the Lifting Cushion suits mature or firming-focused routines where both coverage and lift are priorities.

Korean cushion foundations hold the liquid formula in a sponge reservoir inside a compact. The puff picks up a controlled amount of formula per press, which delivers a thin, buildable layer of coverage - typically sheer to medium on the first pass, medium to full with additional layers. This is different from applying a pump foundation with a brush or sponge, where a single application tends to deposit a heavier layer.

The cushion format also makes midday reapplication clean and portable - tap the puff on the cushion and press it onto areas that need touch-up without disturbing the rest of the base. The OHUI Ultimate cushion range follows this framework, with the Mesh Cushion and Refill offering the additional refinement of a mesh-metered applicator that provides more precision than a saturated foam puff.

The Ultimate Fit Long Wear Jean Cushion 15g is the collection's wear-time champion. It is best suited for conditions where makeup oxidation or wear-off is a concern: humid climates, long workdays, event or occasion makeup that needs to hold through the evening, or oily skin types that experience cushion formulas breaking down to a shiny base within a few hours.

The 'Jean' naming convention in Korean cosmetics references denim-like durability - a finish that holds its shape and tone. At 15g, the Jean Cushion matches the size of other cushion variants in the line. Unlike the Moisture Cushion, which adds hydration through the day, the Jean Cushion prioritizes wear stability over added moisture. For dry skin types, pairing it with the Brightening or Pore Care primer - both of which add a hydrating base - compensates for the cushion's wear-first formulation.

Start with your primary skin concern. For dullness without texture issues: Brightening Primer + Moisture Cover Cushion. For redness or uneven tone: Green Primer + Cover Mesh Cushion. For visible pores and mid-day oiliness: Pore Care Primer + Jean Cushion. For mature skin focused on firmness: Cover Primer + Lifting Cover Cushion. For maximum coverage: any primer + Ultimate Cover Stick Foundation for full face or spot areas.

The refill model of the Mesh Cushion makes it the most cost-efficient cushion for ongoing daily use once you have the case. If you are new to the OHUI Ultimate line, the Mesh Cushion (case + refill included) is the easiest entry point - it is the most versatile coverage format, and buying the refill separately from the second purchase onward reduces the per-use cost significantly.
