   This is an almost perfect cushion however the lasting power and the fact that it never sets prevents it from being a five lippie product. This is good for those that don’t have much movement in their days. When I’m outdoors, out and about, hair out, windy days or when I’m out in the sun, there is very little lasting power. On office days when I do not sweat and sit in air con all day, this fares better, although by lunch time, its has started to break down around the nose area and on the chin area below the lips. It forever remains moist, showing every hair streak and finger print, so I finished this on work days with hair up only and lots of setting spray. There are so many good things about this, it has exceptional coverage, 2 pats of the product is enough for the entire face and its quite thin so no heavy feeling. Good spf, virtually fragrance free, easy to blend, not too glossy a finish, and gets along with all products (no balling, streaking). I gladly finished this but will not repurchase. I’m on the fence about recommending this since its pricy so if you are keen, just buy the refill without the case. I’m testing out a SUM37 cushion right now, the formula is not as nice but it has better lasting power, so will keep searching.

   I have been using cushion foundation for many years and have tried different types of brands especially the Korean ones which include Laniege, Innisfree, FaceShop, Misha, Etude House.
   This cushion is by far the best I have tried! For my dry skin, it is moisturising with a nice glow and stays throughout the day – and that’s often 10-12 hours in an air-con room. It covers very well and can be built up in layers. The cost may be expensive but is well worth it for those who need to wear foundation for long hours. Not sure whether it will work as well for oily skins but definitely great for dry ones.

   Firstly, I have combi skin which is oily during work. Hence I find this product like most cushion not for oily skin, not what the sales person recommended. Product does not last even with a primer and face mist. It will oxidise and I will need touch ups. its quite expensive at SGD70 plus and comes with a refill. Product does not have a glow like most Korean cushions do, coverage is light, require concealer and has a ginseng scent. Just simply no WOW effect for me when I apply this.

   The only good thing is the service at the orchard road tang counter is pretty good and gives many samples.
   If you have oily skin please stay away from this product.

   I have been looking for a cushion foundation for the convenience factor. I’ve watched a lot of youtube reviews and tried a couple. This one is really working for me. I use color 23 medium beige–MAC NW20-25 for reference.

   This cushion is not too dewy, which is my preference. Also, like most cushions it is pretty strongly scented but it has a green almost cucumber smell rather than floral. I like it.

   The compact is a bit smaller than my Hera one. Nice gold trim and beige plastic.

   I’m looking forward to using this more. Fingers crossed it remains as good as I think it is!
