TROIAREUKE SEOUL AESTHETIC CUSHION
This cushion contains a good SPF 50+ PA+++ so it's a good sun protector. It has 13g of product inside. It only comes in one shade which is shade 23. This shade is perfect for people with NC25. However, I do think that people with NC20, NC30 can use this cushion as well. I am a NC20 at the moment and it looks great on my skin. What's so special about the Troiareuke cushion foundation is that it contains 99% skincare and 1% make up. How amazing is that? It contains 6 kinds of peptide and it's completely safe. 5 peptides inside will fill up the skin like a filler. It's a natural botox-like peptide and this will lift the skin up. It has anti-anti-aging effects as well as brightening-effects.
I love how this cushion comes with 2 extra pads, so you have 3 in total in the package. The pad doesn't tear easily and feels cooling on the skin when using it with the cushion.

When using it for the first time, you should remove the film and make sure to close the container lid completely after each use.

The cushion looks so clean if it hasn't used yet haha.

SWATCHES & FINISH & SCENT
This cushion has no heavy scent which I love. It smells pleasant and this product does contain perfume as their last ingredient, but it's not noticeable. My hand is slightly lighter than my face, it looks really dark and not matching with my hand, but it blends in nicely when applying it on my face. As I already mentioned, it only comes in one shade which is shade 23. It has a semi-matte finish once you apply it with a lovely healthy glow. I love this finish, since many cushion foundations has a dewy finish, it makes me look like a lightbulb during the day. This one doesn't do that luckily. It feels moist on the skin. It turns into a soft matte finish within the first hour. Since I got a combination skintype, my T-zone does get oily during the day. So after a few hours I do look slightly oily, but not like a lightbulb, it's acceptable. It accentuates dry patches a little bit, so I wouldn't recommend this cushion for very dry/dry skintypes.

INGREDIENTS

COVERAGE
Here are before and after pictures. I got to apologies because of the lighting that is different, because I used natural lighting that day, I wasn't able to get the same lighting for every picture. However, you can definitely see the coverage as well as the finish that it gives after application. I also did a before and after video on my instastories on my instagram for only today (it stays for 24hours). Make sure to check it out @sokobeauty. It covers the redness and evens out my whole skin tone. The only thing I don't really like is that the product transfers. So becareful when changing your clothes or when you scratch your face when it's itchy, or even when you touch it for a second, it will transfer onto the fingers.

LASTING POWER
The cushion does stay on my skin for a long time, approximately after 5-6 hours my skin needs a touch up because my skin starts to get oily. The product does fade around my oily areas, like the nose area, but it doesn't go into my fine lines which is a plus. On the other areas of my face, it does stay on for the whole day, but you do need to check if it hasn't oxidized or smudged during the day. Even if I applied powder in the morning, I still need to retouch.

FINAL THOUGHTS
I have been using this cushion for the past 2-3 weeks. It's still my favourite cushion foundation at the moment. I love the semi-matte finish of the cushion. The coverage is medium which I like as well, if you need more coverage, just apply concealer. Retouching is needed, since the product fades away or oxidizes around the oily areas/ nose area. It has a pleasant scent which is very important to me. It's a pity that it only comes in one shade, but I do think that it's suitable for NC20, NC25 and NC30. This product has more pros than cons for me. Do you want to test this cushion foundation out together with me? On behalf of Kbeautybay I am searching for 5 reviewers who can review this cushion! Head over to my instagram @sokobeauty, find the picture with this cushion foundation, read the rules and feel free to apply, it's open worldwide!

Have you tried Missha M Magic cushion? I wonder how that is compared to this one?
