Innisfree - Long Wear Cushion Review
06:33:00
The highly raved Long Wear Cushion over the net had caught my eyes and I was tempted to get my hands on this. Sorry but this isn't my cup of tea D:
I ended up getting a refill together instead too! Was really having high expectations for this product as I have sensitive skin and kinda oily skin + the weather in Singapore is like summer year round! All our hardwork in the morning melts away, when half a day had even yet to pass.

Here's the packaging, it's white - clean. Standard cushion compact size.
Comes with an air puff together.
Make sure your cushions has this seal on to prove it's brand new and not tampered with.
The cushion sponge is harder as compared to the current 3CE one I am using.
I am using Shade #21 for the long wear cushion. This is how it looks when puffed on without blending. It's really drying. Definitely not for the dry skin. I had to spray mist on the puff to make it less 'dry+thick'. This is how I add on the additional moisture and also to set my make up.
Here's how it looks like when blended. The level of coverage is pretty high.
HOWEVER! I am sorry to say this accentuates your pores. I was recommended to use the no sebum primer but still..... You can try to layer 3 layers, still, your pores will be like sharpened upon using this product. I ended up layering my own 3CE cushion and hola, it will fill in the pores.
^ Like that the pores not so obvious, after using the 3CE CC cushion.
Now to evening time:
After approx 7-8 hours, here is how it would look like without any touch up. (Sorry, I don't have perfect skin.) The nose sides and around will tend to look flaky. And this product is not suitable for touching up at all. Reason why. It's too dry. When your make up looks flaky already, you need something with moisture to touch up instead. I spray lots of mist on the puff with the foundation in order to touch it up. It's not touch up friendly at all.
| Packaging |
~ Convenient standard cushion packaging with build in mirror and puff is separated from the cushion sponge.
| Smell |
~ I think the smell is herbal?
| Color? |
~ Shade #21.
| Pros |
~ High coverage. Can cover dark eye circles.
~ Feels light when applied. Like really perfect skin - provided you have no pores.
~ Lightweight packaging and convenient to bring around.
~ Can control sebum. My face seems less oily already as compared.
| Cons |
~ Their casings is really loose, it can be opened up really easily.
~ Accentuates your pores like seriously.
~ If you do not keep your skin moist enough, it will flake. Upon touching up you can see your pores, around your pores, rings of cakeyness. Ew. Have to fix with mist together.
~ Not suitable for touching up unless you fix it with mist. I really meant you should not, caused me a disaster ;/
| Would I buy this again? |
I don't think I would though. In fact after using this, I went to made an exchange to the water glow refill instead. Hoping that it would be better for me :(
| Where to buy? |
Innisfree outlets in Singapore. I visited Jem for this.
