Magic Cushion Foundation No.23 Natural Beige for Light with Neutral Skin Tone, Flawless Coverage, Dewy Finish, Easy Application for All Skin Types

Decided to try this as I was on the hunt for something for *no makeup makeup* days and I was bolstered by the all the reviews that said they got *my skin, only better*. As soon as I got it I tried it with the sponge it comes with but found it to be a heavier coverage than what I was looking for. The next time I used a large foundation brush and stippled it into my skin. I did half my face with one tiny tap into the compact. It was beautiful. Although it looked way too dark for my skin tone while in the compact, it was a perfect match once applied. There was no caking or separating----it just looked like smooth, even, radiant skin. One tiny tap for each side of my face provided lovely light/medium coverage. Because such a very little goes a very long way I'm going to try one tiny tap for my entire face for the *no makeup makeup* days. If you're on the fence, please just try it. And you can't go wrong at that price!

I’m absolutely delighted with this Korean cushion foundation after the very first use. It leaves my skin looking smooth and perfected, but still very natural — no heavy or cakey feeling at all. The shade is light and works perfectly for fair skin. What really impressed me is how well it lasted all day, even while wearing a hat and scarf in Chicago’s cold weather. I only needed to apply a bit of setting spray and it stayed in place beautifully. One important tip: make sure to apply it with gentle tapping motions instead of rubbing the cushion on your skin — that makes a big difference in the finish. Highly recommended if you’re looking for a fresh, lightweight, and long-lasting cushion foundation.

This stuff is kind of magical. A small amount can go a long way and it is buildable. I LOVE how convenient and non-messy the whole thing is: the package, applicator, makeup well/sponge system. It's much better than having to carry around a bottle and separate sponge that you need to keep clean and dry. I have a mix of dry and oily skin and this works pretty well with both. While there is some separation from the oil after several hours, you can usually fix it with a touch-up, but it also just doesn't look THAT bad when it separates. I live in a very hot environment and, again, it holds up pretty well in that. HOWEVER, I have very pale neutral coloring and the lightest shade of this (21) is too dark and yellow. So I looked into other MISSHA products and found their Perfect Cover Cream in the color 13 but the cream does not cover as well as the cushion foundation. So I mix the cream in with the cushion, and I can get a pretty close match. It also somehow maintains the coverage and buildability of the original cushion foundation. If you need to build up more, it might not last you a long time. I build it up, but because I mix in the other foundation, it lasts me quite a while. You'll really just have to try it out yourself to see how quickly you'll go through it. But definitely try just a small amount first and tap/press it onto the skin to see how much you actually need. Some people use a lot more than necessary because they are used to using so much more. If you do that, you will go through this stuff quickly.

Wow! I did NOT expect this level of excellence. The compact foundation is amazing. It is light, but the coverage is magical. I'm older and battle with pigmentation issue & this foundation makes spots vanish! It also doesn't creep into nooks & crannies. I'm 70 and my complexion looks like glass (ok, my eye area is my eye area... but still pretty good!) This is revolutionary makeup. The only thing I'd change up next time is the shade. But the 21 I tried is do-able for a fair complex with full makeup. This product makes my year..

I got both the cushion in no.21 and the perfect cover bb cream no.23. Because i wasnt sure what shade to get. The cushion is significantly brighter and appears true to shade whereas the bb cream is more dull and grey which isnt terrible but it is confusing. Both appear to be a natural finish rather than a dewy finish. Coverage is both medium. However, I think their better when layered. Since the bb cream is greyish and deeper if you layer the lighter ontop and strategically it makes the bb cream looks like a lighter contour without using too much product. There is a light perfume.

Quick Summary: The product goes on beautiful at first but about 4 hours in I was creasing and cakey. In depth review: Due to the pandemic and me working from home for the past year I decided to look for a cheaper alternative to my usual Estee Lauder foundation (Winter shade: 1W2 Sand, Summer Shade: 2W2 Rattan). I barely go out now and I used less than half my foundation over a period of 12 months. I have combination skin with my t-zone being oily and the areas around my nose being dry. Pros: - Buildable coverage. With one layer I was able to cover my redness and make my freckles more subtle. With 2 layers my freckles were covered the way I like them with it barely peeking from under. - Little bit of product goes a long way. Refer to my picture - that amount was able to cover half my face with a good coverage. Honestly it was like magic because I kept applying it and more just kept coming. - Looks amazing when first applied. My skin was beautiful (not under flash) when this was first applied on. It is dewy and looks just like skin. - Moisturizing. I used primer, powder foundation, and setting spray. Even after this my skin felt very moisturized compared to other foundations I have used, even Estee Lauder. - Has Sunscreen. As you can tell from my scary flash photo, this product has sunscreen which is why the skin is scary white. - Cute, compact, study cover. I only used this product twice but the cover for the cushion was cute and felt sturdy to me. It was smaller than the Etude House cushion makeup I also got. Cons: - Pink undertone (could be a pro for you). It was noticeable to me when I was passing by my reflection. With bronzer, contour, blush, and powder foundation (bare minerals Light 08 and yellow undertone and more suited for my skin for summer) it was less noticeable but I did not want to deal with having to make my foundation match my skin. - 4 hour mark is when my skin became noticeably cakey and creasing starting. Before the 4 hour mark my skin was very beautiful and natural looking. Once the 4 hour mark came and I checked my skin, it started to crease and get oily. By the 8 hour mark which was the end of my day I felt like my skin looked messy. Even with blotting to see if it would help, my skin still looked cakey. I did get oily with my Estee Lauder foundation however when I used tissue paper to blot my skin it would just take away the shine and my skin did not look cakey and creased like this one. However that is a +$40 foundation. - Transfers easily. About 2.5-3 hours in my skin started to get oily and because of this it transferred easily. Take what you need from this review. There are more pros than cons. I decided to return it and ultimately went with Etude House Double Lasting Cushion Glow shade 23N1 Sand because it looked better at the end of the day and was my exact shade. I was okay with paying $10 more for it.

I LOVE this foundation!! I've tried and used SO many brands, inexpensive and expensive...and this is by far my favorite!! Great, buildable coverage! Goes on smooth and dewey! Honestly, this will be my foundation from now on!

This cushion is pretty good! I don't do makeup outside of mascara almost ever, but even when I do put on makeup it's usually just foundation on the outside of my face for multiple reasons: it's where the majority of my acne was as a teen so it has the most discoloration, I have freckles across my nose and cheeks that I like and foundation always covers them up, I have really deep lines around my nose and on my chin where foundation always cakes no matter what so it looks messy, and putting a foundation just a smidge darker than your skin tone around your face will accentuate the rest and make you look more 3D and less flat than an even layer of foundation would. Now, I'm really pale. So many people say they're really pale but I'm REALLY pale, so I purposefully sought out a Korean cushion foundation because the Korean beauty standard is unfortunately extremely eurocentric so they often have a lot of the lighest foundations which made me figure I'd find a match for me better by looking overseas. I bought the lightest shade of this available and it is STILL too dark for me, which is pretty unfortunate. I'm also fairly cool toned, and from what I can tell these foundations seem to be more warm toned- but I don't do makeup and I'm not that smart with this stuff so I could be wrong. Also cushion foundations are supposed to be something you can slap on without needing to use a setting powder, but I find this foundation stays pretty tacky for quite a long time which makes it stick to my hair. This could be easily avoided with a setting powder, but I went for a cushion specifically because they're good to use for on-the-go touch-ups and as a base that doesn't need to be set, but I shouldn't have to buy an additional product just for this foundation to not be sticky for hours, especially since I don't even do my makeup like that. But for people who already have setting powders or are willing to purchase one, I don't think the tackiness would be a problem. IDK how good it is at sun protection since I always put sunscreen on under my foundation like you're supposed to, but I'd always recommend that you never treat foundation or powders with SPF in them as being adequate protection from the sun. All that aside, the cushion is still easy to use, it blends in well, and it never leaves my skin feeling or looking dry or greasy. I'm pretty satisfied, I think it'd decently friendly for beginners (as long as they don't press too hard on the cushion and get way too much foundation- a little goes a long way w/ cushions especially!), and I think people who do their makeup more often would appreciate this for doing touch-ups when out and about especially since it also has a mirror inside which can be used when touching up other makeup as well. If they make a lighter shade, I'd buy it again!

Edit: I'm sorry I was hasty to judge this product without giving it time! The mirror was infact covered by a protective layer. The coverage is alright but you can layer it. It doesn't feel like I have clay on my face like most foundations! I love this product and I will be using it for more years to come for everyday make up. It brightens my skin and doesn't oxidize at the end of the day. ❤️❤️❤️❤️ I used a beauty blender instead of the ugly sponge they provided. It was a game changer!!!!! The mirror is blurred I thought I gotta peel some protective layer that's why it has some scratch on it. It's not my colour (unfortunately). I thought it would give me a dewy look but it shows a matte finish and my face is itching. :((( I wish I can return this thing or get a refund!!!!

Andando incontro alla stagione calda mi serviva un fondotinta che avesse un fattore di protezione alto ma che allo stesso tempo fosse idratante e coprente e che lo potessi portare comodamente con me. Ho deciso di orientarmi su un cushion spinta dalla curiosità di provarne almeno uno e così sperando di andare più a colpo sicuro ho scelto quello di Missha. Consigliato per: – Chi è alla ricerca di un prodotto ad alta coprenza; – Coloro che cercano di uniformare un tono della pelle non uniforme; – Coloro che desiderano un effetto rinfrescante e idratante, anche dopo i ritocchi. Non pensavo che un prodotto avrebbe potuto colpirmi così velocemente, invece sono rimasta piacevolmente stupita già dalla prima applicazione. Coprenza: già con una sola passata è molto alta, la spugnetta di cui è dotata la confezione stende perfettamente il fondo, basta premere nel cuscinetto imbevuto e poi picchiettare sul viso per stendere il prodotto. Il risultato sulla mia pelle è effetto pelle di porcellana, unificato e luminoso. La colorazione che ho scelto è la numero 21. Idratazione: Appena applicato si nota subito che non è un prodotto adatto a pelli miste/grasse, lascia la pelle idratata e morbida senza seccarla o segnarla anche dopo diverse ore che lo si indossa. Tenuta: ottima, resiste tranquillamente tutta la giornata anche su di me che tocco spesso il viso, sia da sola che fissata con la cipria. Alla sera, al momento dello struccaggio mi stupisco sempre di quanto prodotto trovi sui dischetti, a prova del fatto che è davvero a lunga tenuta. SPF: fattore molto importate infatti, perchè parliamo di una protezione molto alta 50+ che in estate fa sempre comodo. Packaging : Punto meno rilevante lo so, ma anche l’occhio vuole la sua parte! Trovo che il packaging, in plastica bianca e argento, sia molto elegante e raffinato, carino e comodo da portare con sé in borsa. Lo specchio all’interno è sufficientemente grande per i ritocchi al volo, inoltre il materiale sembra abbastanza resistente da sopravvivere a qualche urto.

I’m sorry but this product broke me out really bad. I’m not sure if the product is old/expired because it came quite dusty as well. I’m really disappointed for having to receive a product that I paid full price for. I hope it works out well for the others.

The best cushion foundation at a reasonable price. The coverage is similar to Chanel Les Beige Cushion Foundation at a lower price, so i can use this everyday without breaking the bank. The only downside is the product finishes quite quickly.

حلو وتغطيته متوسطه تنفع لاستخدام يومي بس لازم احط واقي شمس قبلها حتى لو مكتوب انه يوجد فيه حماية من الشمس
