Sulwhasoo Perfecting Cushion

Cushion foundations are relatively new to me. At first, I thought these typically Korean foundations were not well adapted to my needs.

I thought their formulas always had a super dewy satin finish.

In my mind, they were solely intended for dry skins and didn’t think they would last very long, especially on my combination skin.

Their compact format lead me to assume that it was essential to take them with you to reapply them during the day (which is not completely untrue but not for the reasons I thought).

With my combination skin and living in a warm country, I have been stuck to just using long-lasting foundations with a matte finish for several years.

But my tastes have changed a lot recently and I’m no longer against a nice satin finish, much more flattering on my “aging” skin.

Also, I tried several cushion foundations, and I can tell you that most of them are now as long-lasting as conventional liquid foundations.

So this will probably be the first of many cushion foundations reviews!

It provides really good coverage, but it is a little too thick. Just patting 1 layer on is enough to make you look like you have a pretty thick base on. If you're fair-skinned, this may not be applicable to you but since I am pretty tanned, so it looks a little thick on me. However, your skin will look smooth and pretty flawless with this perfecting cushion. It is easy to apply, cooling and soft, which feels good on my face. So I'll recommend it to you fair skinned ladies out there if you are willing to spend more money for a better quality base. If you have tanned skin like me, perhaps some other options might suit you better.

Very thick coverage. But i prefer the brightening cushion. Because it is thick, it tends to cake up in Singapore weather
