When I first started this blog, I used to worry about running out of products to review, since I blog on a daily basis (except weekends and public holidays). I look back now and think that my worries are totally unfounded – I underestimated my ability to beauty binge shop. heh. Show Thankfully, from time to time, I receive products from brands to review, which saves me some moolah here and there. To be honest, even if I hadn’t received this Cushion, I’d still have gone out and bought it. Remember, a leopard doesn’t change its preens. (I am so in serious need of some muzzling hohoho) Innisfree Long Wear Cushion in shade 13 Light BeigeWatch and savour this moment – it’s when the BB cushion looks the prettiest.Unlike some other cushions, this one doesn’t ooze liquid when you depress a finger for the first timeA matte and skin-brightening finishUnder clouded sunlight – it almost looks like my own skin (if I’d undergone 10 OPT treatments)Doing a comparison with the other newly-launched Laneige BB Cushion Pore Control in 21 – I know the shades are different, but just check out the finish. Innisfree is more matte, while the Laneige one has more glow.Trying on a coloured upper liner for the first time 😀I say… At the recent Cushions Class event, this was part of their Summer launch (along with the Water Glow Cushion). Both are meant to help combat the crazy heat and humidity during summer, but this version (Long Wear) is targeted specifically for those with oily / combination skin types. It gives a matte finish without being too sticky, and is touted to have long-staying powers.
That said, this is great for oil control, has relatively long wear time (even in this disgusting humidity), and has pretty good coverage. And now, you can check out the Water Glow Cushion 😀 Why do Koreans like cushion foundation?The cushion foundation is a logical continuation of the BB cream trend and it was first marketed in Korea as its lightweight version, ideal to use during the summer (also because you can easily reapply it to keep a good sun protection throughout the day). Is Cushion foundation good for your skin?Cushion foundations are light to medium to full coverage and are hydrating or luminous. It makes your skin look more dewy and supple. It is lighter, covers blemishes and redness to perfect the look of smooth, clear skin, and gives you a more natural-looking finish. Is cushion foundation better than foundation?Choosing between a cushion and a foundation refers to personal needs and preferences. A cushion might be your go-to if you prefer a natural and light appearance. However, foundation could be the better choice if you aim to conceal imperfections with a thicker and more long-lasting effect. How long does cushion foundation last?Answer: The longevity of cushion foundation can vary, but on average, it lasts around 4 to 8 hours before needing touch-ups or reapplication. Factors like skin type, environmental conditions, and the specific product can affect its wear time. Some cushion foundations offer long-wearing claims for extended longevity. |
