Coverage buildable to just short of medium. Innisfree Water Glow (score=7.5)ĭewy, creamy glow. Anyway, they are still lovely cushions that provide medium coverage with a satin finish and wear well comfortably. If I had to split hairs, these might be ever-so-slightly more oil-controlling/drying than the cushions above. TIE: Laneige (Target version) and HERA UV Mist Long Stay(score=8.25) Medium coverage. Wears well and retains matte finish without drying out skin. Polished matte finish that can be made dewy if applied after dewy skincare. TIE: AmorePacific Color Control Cushion and Hanyul Luminant Cushion(score=9.5)

The main thing to take away from the scores, which range from 7.5 to 9.5, is that the differences in quality are not great and that even the lowest-scoring cushion is a good product. Perhaps because the brands are all under the corporate AmorePacific umbrella, the differences among the cushions are fairly small despite differing ingredients and marketing claims. Ten would be “OMG flawless every time and reliably works with different types of skincare and in different weather.” None of them scored a 10. Scoring: I’ve scored them on a scale from 1 to 10. Before I used cushions, I used mineral makeup for more than 5 years (bareMinerals and Laura Mercier).

For reference, I typically have trouble getting liquid bases (including tinted moisturizers and BB creams) to apply evenly on my skin as they tend to sink into large pores and exacerbate any dryness. As a function of the shades that I have, I wore the AmorePacific in summer, the IOPE in spring, summer, and fall, and all others in fall, winter, and spring. Skin Profile: My skin is dry with flaky spots in the winter and normal with a slightly oily T-zone in the summer. After using it with various moisturizers and sunscreens, I’ve noticed that the glowiness of some cushions can increase or decrease depending on the underlying products that I’ve applied. Typically I apply cushions without primer and with light powder (either all over or just under the eyes and around the edges of my nose and face). Usage Conditions: I experience all 4 seasons and usually spend all day in a climate-controlled office or home. Also, as with any foundation, smooth and well moisturized skin produces optimal results. So little product is applied that I don’t think those claims make sense. I’m also judging these as purely makeup products even though a lot of them make skin-improving, moisturizing, and sun protection claims. My rankings are based on the cushion formula without regard to price, packaging, or shade, although my experiences are inherently limited to and influenced by the particular shades I use.

In alphabetical order, the 7 that I own are:

Now that I’ve used my 7 (yes, 7!) cushions for a while and found myself reaching for certain ones over others, I wanted to share my personal ranking of my favorites. There are now cushions as blush, highlighter, and eyeliner, colorless cushions, cushion pens for concealer and lip color, cushions for your hair, even cushions for your butt!
