As someone with super sensitive skin, I'm thrilled it didn't cause any adverse reactions The darkening effect is quite intense. It's a bit shocking to see in the afternoon - Hwahae UserCombination SkinAcne SkinSensitive SkinFeb 5, 2025
As someone with super sensitive skin, I've been carefully avoiding ingredients like cyclopentasiloxane, dimethicone, PEG derivatives, pore-clogging substances, and fermented moisturizing components (like propanediol) that cause blemishes for me. This cushion was a hard-won find, and I'm thrilled to report that it didn't trigger any additional skin issues! That alone earns it 4 stars from me. I noticed Amuse's other cushions don't have ingredients as good as this one. The coverage is slightly better than a brightening moisturizer. It applies so thinly and transparently that I preferred layering it twice for a light application rather than piling it on heavily at once. It also adheres well to the skin! I applied two thin layers, set it lightly with powder, and didn't need touch-ups. Even as it wore off, it didn't settle into pores as much as other cushions and faded gracefully. The color has a slight pink undertone, reminiscent of a brightening moisturizer but more sophisticated. As a cool-toned shade 21, it matched me perfectly. Some reviews mentioned it being light, but while I'm occasionally told I'm pale, I'm not extremely fair. I usually stick to shade 21 in other cushions and find 19 too light. I think this cushion's transparent formula might be why it worked so well for me. For reference, I also used shade 21 Rose in Banila Co. There is a bit of darkening after use, but it wasn't noticeable enough to bother me while using it. (I only realized this after reading other reviews!) The most disappointing thing is that this product has been discontinued. (There's still some stock left in shades 1.5 and 02 - grab them while you can!) I don't understand why they'd discontinue something with such great ingredients and application. Please bring it back with a renewed formula! I thought I'd finally found my holy grail cushion, but... Unable to find a suitable replacement, I've ordered shade 02. I'm hoping it won't be too dark, as I'd rather it be slightly deeper than too pale. Fingers crossed it's not too dark! Apply two thin layers The cushion dispenses more product than expected, so press gently - Hwahae UserNormal SkinJan 27, 2025
The packaging is absolutely gorgeous! The ivory-like color is truly beautiful. While the ivory shade was stunning, it does darken slightly after some time, which is a bit disappointing. - Hwahae UserOily SkinJan 20, 2025
Very moisturizing. Slight darkening effect. Coverage is a bit light, but not bad when layered. There's some darkening and makeup can look patchy. It appears lighter than expected, so keep that in mind. - Hwahae UserNormal SkinAcne SkinNov 4, 2024
While it's not particularly high coverage, I love how it makes my skin look beautiful. There's a slight darkening effect and I'm getting a few blemishes popping up. - Hwahae UserOily SkinAcne SkinSensitive SkinSep 29, 2024
Coverage: It hits the mark! The coverage is decent, comparable to other brands in the same category. Dewy finish: When applied, it gives a lovely dewy glow that makes your skin look beautiful. Longevity: Unfortunately, it's a complete letdown. Whether you're wearing a mask or not, it creases, breaks down, and flakes off. The darkening effect is also quite severe. Even with a solid skincare base, it's as if your skin is rejecting it, just pushing it right off. Thickness: It goes on way too thick. I'm not one to overapply, but this feels like it's sitting on top of the skin rather than absorbing. Color: I use shade 19, but it's quite dark. On the bright side, it's less yellow-toned than Espoir. This one's headed straight for the marketplace! - Hwahae UserCombination SkinAcne SkinSep 24, 2024
My skin type is combination with uneven texture and blemish marks. The texture of this cushion feels moisturizing and lightweight! The color was slightly more muted than my usual shade. I'm typically a 22, but I used shade 1 because I prefer a pink base, and it didn't look off on my skin at all! In the past, when I used cushions for a full week, I'd always get two or three blemishes. But with this cushion, maybe because it's vegan, I didn't experience any breakouts! This made it perfect for daily use, and I loved how it made my skin look naturally beautiful, as if I wasn't wearing makeup at all. As it's a sheer cushion, it doesn't provide much coverage. I felt like it barely covered noticeable areas like blemish marks, pores, and uneven texture. Unfortunately, I experienced significant darkening with this product. As someone who's self-conscious about having a darker complexion, this was a major disappointment for me. - Hwahae UserDehydrated SkinAcne SkinSensitive SkinOct 30, 2023
The way it absorbs was actually pretty decent. It felt like it added a nice layer of hydration. I think it caused some darkening of my skin, unfortunately. Also, it made my skin a bit oily. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinAtopy SkinAcne SkinSensitive SkinOct 12, 2023
This was my first cushion foundation at 13 years old! As someone with a naturally pale face, it provided just the right amount of brightening. On good skin days, it really works wonders - the complexion looks absolutely beautiful! Unfortunately, it doesn't provide any coverage at all. I have a slightly darker forehead, and the product just sits on top, looking obvious. The darkening effect is really severe - when I come back from school, my skin looks even darker than before I applied it! Pro tip: Apply it after using a toner pad for better absorption! - Hwahae UserDry SkinAtopy SkinAcne SkinMay 26, 2023
Despite having blemish-prone skin, the cushion itself seemed to beautifully refine my skin texture, making it look fantastic on the surface! I have extremely dehydrated skin, and even with a precise skincare routine, I always had dead skin cells flaking on my forehead. If you're like me with severe deep dryness, I recommend using this along with a hydrating mist for that Inner Glow effect! Also, the darkening was a bit intense for me. After washing my face, it felt like my skin became even paler in comparison. I wanted to touch up, but as I mentioned earlier, due to my dehydrated skin, any attempt at reapplying makeup only exacerbated the dryness, turning me into a parched mess. Carrying around a hydrating mist proved impractical. This product doesn't seem to suit my skin type, so I won't be repurchasing.
