Olive Young Makeup Puff Review: Picasso x Ham Kyung Sik Mini Puff
Korean Makeup Puff Review: Picasso x Ham Kyung Sik Mini Skin Fit Puff

Korean makeup puff review content is honestly more important than people think, especially if you care about smooth base makeup.
A good foundation or concealer matters, of course.
But the tool you use can completely change how your makeup sits on the skin.
Recently, I tried the new Picasso x Ham Kyung Sik Mini Skin Fit Puff line, available at Olive Young.
I tested two versions: the Mini Skin Fit Silky Puff and the Mini Jjondeuk Puff.
Both are small makeup puffs designed for detailed areas like the under-eyes, nose area, blemishes, and small parts of the face where regular cushion puffs can feel too large.
I used them with foundation, concealer, and liquid blush to see how different they actually feel.
Disclosure
This review is based on my personal experience using the Picasso x Ham Kyung Sik mini puffs.
Makeup results can vary depending on your foundation, concealer, skin texture, application method, and how much product you use.
This post is a personal K-beauty makeup tool review.
Why I Wanted to Try These Korean Mini Makeup Puffs

I love base makeup, but I am picky about application tools.
Sometimes fingers work well, especially when you want warmth and quick blending. But fingers are not always the best for detailed areas.
For example, around the nose, under the eyes, and near the inner corners, fingers can be too wide or uneven.
Regular cushion puffs can also be too big.
They are great for the cheeks and forehead, but when I want to tap concealer under my eyes or around the nose, a large puff can make the product spread too far.
That is why I was curious about these mini puffs.
They are small enough to reach detailed areas but still soft enough to blend product smoothly.
What Are Picasso x Ham Kyung Sik Mini Skin Fit Puffs?

Picasso is a Korean beauty tool brand known for makeup brushes, puffs, and sponges.
The brand is popular among people who care about makeup details and professional-looking application.
This mini puff line was developed in collaboration with makeup artist Ham Kyung Sik, and the concept is simple: smaller puffs for more detailed base makeup.
The line includes different textures, including Silky and Jjondeuk.
In Korean beauty terms, “jjondeuk” usually describes something bouncy, chewy, elastic, or cushiony.
So even before using them, I expected the Silky Puff to feel smoother and softer, while the Jjondeuk Puff would feel more dense and elastic.
That expectation was pretty accurate.
Why Mini Puffs Are Useful for Base Makeup


Mini puffs are especially useful when you want control.
A regular puff is good for fast application, but a mini puff is better for precision.
These are the areas where I found mini puffs most useful:
under the eyes
around the nose
beside the nostrils
around the mouth
small blemishes
dark circles
liquid blush edges
concealer blending
areas where foundation creases
If your makeup often looks messy around small areas, the problem might not be your foundation. It might be the tool.
A mini puff helps you press product into the skin in smaller sections, which can make the finish look cleaner.
Mini Skin Fit Silky Puff Review


The Mini Skin Fit Silky Puff has a soft, smooth surface.
As the name suggests, it feels silky on the skin.
When I touched it, the surface felt gentle and comfortable, not rough or scratchy.
I first tested it with foundation and compared it with finger application.
With fingers, the foundation spread quickly, but the finish looked a little less even in detailed areas.
With the mini puff, the product looked more evenly blended, especially around tiny skin texture and small curves of the face.
It felt like the puff helped press the product into the skin instead of just moving it around.
Texture and First Impression


The Silky Puff feels lightweight and smooth.
It does not have an overly dense or sticky feel.
It is good when you want a soft, natural finish rather than maximum coverage.
I especially liked it around the under-eye area because the texture did not feel harsh.
The mini size made it easier to control where the product went.
For someone like me who gets creasing around the nose and under-eyes, this was very useful.
Best Uses: Concealer and Liquid Blush


The Silky Puff worked well with concealer and liquid blush.
For concealer, it helped blend the edges without removing too much product.
For liquid blush, it helped create a soft, diffused finish.
Some tools can make liquid blush look patchy or too concentrated, but this puff helped spread the color naturally.
If you like soft makeup, sheer blending, and gentle tapping, I think the Silky Puff is the easier one to use.
It is the type of puff I would reach for when I want my makeup to look natural but still clean.
Mini Jjondeuk Puff Review

The Mini Jjondeuk Puff feels different.
It has more bounce and density.
When I pressed it, it had that elastic feeling where the puff pushes back slightly.
Compared to the Silky Puff, the Jjondeuk Puff felt more like it was designed for coverage and adhesion.
It did not feel hard, but it had more structure.
When I used it with concealer, it helped press the product onto the skin more firmly.
This made it useful for areas where I wanted more coverage, like dark circles or small blemishes.
Texture and First Impression
The Jjondeuk Puff feels bouncy, dense, and smooth.
It gives more of a “press and fix” feeling.
Instead of lightly sweeping product across the skin, this puff works better when you tap and press.
I liked using it when I wanted concealer to stay exactly where I placed it.
It seemed to absorb less product and deliver more of it onto the skin, which helped the coverage look stronger.
If you want a more polished base finish, this puff makes sense.
Best Uses: Concealer and Coverage

Especially for dark circles, blemishes, or areas where you want more coverage, this puff felt more effective.
It helped blend the edges while keeping the center coverage intact.
That is important because sometimes when you blend concealer too much, it disappears.
With the Jjondeuk Puff, the concealer stayed more visible but still looked smooth.
I also liked it around the nose because it helped press foundation into the small curves without making the area look cakey.
Finger vs Mini Puff: What Changed?
This was the most interesting comparison.
I tested the same foundation with my fingers on one side and the mini puff on the other side.
With fingers, the foundation looked okay, but it was harder to blend evenly into small texture areas.
With the mini puff, the finish looked more even and detailed.
The puff helped fill in small gaps around the skin texture and made the base look more refined.
This difference was especially noticeable around the nose and under the eyes.
That is exactly where I usually struggle with makeup sitting unevenly.
So if you have ever wondered why your base looks good from far away but messy up close, a mini puff might help.
Silky Puff vs Jjondeuk Puff: Main Differences
Here is the simple comparison.
The Silky Puff is softer and smoother.
It feels gentle and works well for natural blending.
I recommend it for:
liquid blush
soft concealer blending
under-eye area
natural finish
light base correction
The Jjondeuk Puff is denser and bouncier.
It gives more adhesion and coverage.
I recommend it for:
concealer
dark circles
blemishes
nose area
higher coverage base makeup
Both are useful, but they do not feel the same.
The best choice depends on your makeup style.
Which Puff Should You Choose?
If you want one puff for soft, natural makeup, I would choose the Mini Skin Fit Silky Puff.
It is easy to use and works well with concealer and liquid blush.
If you want one puff mainly for concealer and coverage, I would choose the Mini Jjondeuk Puff.
It gives more of that firm tapping effect and helps product stay in place better.
If you are very into base makeup details, having both actually makes sense.
Use the Silky Puff for soft blending.
Use the Jjondeuk Puff for coverage and adhesion.
That is probably the best way to use them.
Who Should Try These Puffs?
I recommend these mini puffs for people who want:
a Korean makeup puff
a mini concealer puff
a puff for under-eye concealer
a puff for the nose area
better base makeup detail
a makeup tool for liquid blush
a Korean beauty tool from Olive Young
a smaller puff for precise application
a smoother-looking concealer finish
They are especially useful if you feel like your regular cushion puff is too big for small areas.
Who Might Not Need Them?
If you only wear very minimal makeup, you may not need separate mini puffs.
If you prefer using only your fingers, brushes, or regular sponges, these may feel like an extra step.
Also, if you do not use concealer, liquid blush, or detailed base makeup, you may not use them often.
But if you care about small-area blending, they are genuinely helpful.
Final Thoughts
Overall, the Picasso x Ham Kyung Sik Mini Skin Fit Puffs are useful K-beauty makeup tools for detailed base makeup.
The Silky Puff is soft, smooth, and good for natural blending.
The Jjondeuk Puff is bouncy, dense, and better for coverage.
I liked how both puffs helped me reach areas that are usually difficult with regular cushion puffs, especially the under-eyes and nose area.
My one-line review:
A mini Korean makeup puff duo that makes concealer, liquid blush, and detailed base makeup look cleaner and more precise.
If you love K-beauty base makeup and want your concealer to blend more smoothly, these mini puffs are worth checking out.
