![]() On me, it makes me look like a disco ball (with huge pores), so I prefer to avoid it. On the other hand, I must admit that very satiny effects, like glass skin, are not my jam. Usually, I prefer a semi-matte finish, or even a really matte finish in summer, but in winter for example, I’m not against a more glowy finish that will give a fresh and plumped up aspect to my skin. The finish is my priority because I adapt it to my needs or my mood of the day. I have visible pores but I can also have flaky skin on certain dry areas of my face. I have a combination skin that tends to look shiny during the day (especially in the summer) but is also quite dehydrated. ![]() It will hopefully help you better understand my choices and my issues with some products too!įor an explanation on what a Korean cushion foundation is, how to use it etc, I refer you to my first article Korean cushion foundations: the ultimate guide □ ![]() I mentioned my preferences regarding cushion foundations in my first article, but I thought it would be useful to remind you of them here. So today, let me share with you some of my favorite cushions and the latest ones I’ve tried! Since then my collection has grown “slightly”. Soon after, I snapped up an IOPE Air Cushion (an older version), because I read it was the very first cushion and it was iconic, and I obviously couldn’t resist the sublime packaging of a limited edition Sulwhasoo cushion! Since I was there, I figured it was now or never to try more cushions and I guess you could say my collection fever started at this moment □ Instant crush! I found the finish superb, and I did my base makeup in 2 minutes total thanks to the little puff. So I decided to buy a Laneige cushion (it was the BB matte, which doesn’t exist anymore, I think), which I tried the very next day. Not a glorious experience!īut in 2017, I visited Seoul and once I was there, I thought it would be silly to miss out and maybe I should give it another try! (In fact, all these gorgeous compacts were tempting me way too much Seoul is the Disneyland of beauty addicts, with marvels at every corner!) And uh, let’s just say the concepts behind each one were not super well developed and you could feel it! It was thick and greasy and the formula just sat on my skin. I first tried one from The Face Shop and then a Magic Cushion from Missha (which doesn’t exist anymore, they were old versions). I discovered cushion foundations about 6 years ago, but my first two experiences were quite unsuccessful. I told you why I thought they weren’t for me at first (I thought they were too glowy for my combination skin, with a mediocre coverage and lasting power…) but didn’t carry on to explain why I fell in love with cushions! In my ultimate guide to Korean cushion foundations, I didn’t really tell you why I loved cushions so much. ![]() So here’s my best-of of Korean cushion foundations, 2021 edition! Please replace the cushion with a refill.Now that you’ve all seen my “small ” collection of cushion foundations, I have no choice but to tell you a little more about them! Which are my favorites, why do I like them and what do they look like in action on my skin. When no more product gets applied when with you press the cushion firmly with your fingers, this means the product was used up.(May be used before or after makeup)īefore makeup, take the product onto the puff, then pat lightly.Īfter makeup, take a generous amount on the puff, then tap lightly along the skin’s texture. Use during the makeup base or foundation stage after completing your skincare routine, or apply when you need sunblock or when retouching makeup in the afternoon.
