BB Cake Review - MISSHA Miss Geum Sul Vitalizing BB Cake

I have recently obtained a bb cake (for its pretty packaging, MISSHA Miss Geum Sul Vitalizing BB Cake SPF40/PA++) and will compare it to bb cushions.
The packaging is very similar to cushions. Same sponge, double compartment, mirror, and pop out refillable cartridges. The difference is the formula and sometimes the applicator. BB cakes do not use a cushion sponge to deliver thin, liquid foundation. Instead, cakes are solid. Basically, bb cakes are cream compacts. Cream compacts are usually moisturizing and coverage can be built up to full, doubling as a concealer. How to apply: sweep on a light layer and pat in to blend. Spot conceal and pat in to blend. 

Pros:
hydrating
moisturizes dry patches
buildable to mediumm-full
does not clog pores
can be used for touch ups

Cons:
transfers
oily
coverage fades
color matching

Repurchase? No. The color doesn't match and the coverage and finish is too high maintenance.
