HOW TO USE
Take the puff and tap lightly for adhering. Tap more on the area where more coverage is needed. TIP! If you have used it for a while and you notice that there is almost no product anymore, flip the cushion and you can use it again. Otherwise, you can also purchase refills and put it in this case.

SWATCHES & COVERAGE
This is shade V201 Apricot Beige. This CC Cushion has a light fresh fruity citrus scent (not overwhelming at all) and is for people with a yellow undertone. It has a medium coverage and is able to cover light spots or marks on the skin. You are able to apply more but it does look cakey if you do.

FINAL THOUGHTS
The reason why I wanted to try this CC cushion is because of the intense coverage that it promises and also because I haven't found a cushion foundation yet that I am really happy with. I love the idea that it's a cushion, it's easy to travel with, you can easily touch up your make up and just cover any blemishes that you have. However, I found many cushion foundation way too cakey looking and too obvious that I have something on my skin.
This CC Cushion from The Face Shop has an adorable packaging and is very easy to apply. It's not patchy but just glides onto the face while applying and it sets pretty quickly as well. Once I applied it on my skin I notice how moist it feels and the medium coverage, but also the healthy glow finish that it gives. However, after half an hour I already noticed that my face was really oily on my combination dry skin. Unfortunately this CC Cushion can easily transfer on my clothing since my skin produces so much sebum after applying the CC Cushion. On the days when I apply powder on top of it, it does last longer but not for too long. Just within 2 hours I get quite oily again. I got to say that it really does do what it says but it's just not suitable for my skin type.
Therefore I recommend this more to people with a dehydrated skin/ dry skin types. It moisturizes the face well, and if you are looking for medium coverage, this would be THE CC Cushion for you!
However, if you have a combination dry/ oily skin type I would stay away from this CC Cushion, since you will be blotting your face the whole day, unless you don't mind being glowy all day.
