Review: Etude House Precious Mineral Any Cushion light beige N02



Hi everyone! Todays review is of the etude house mineral any cushion. After trying the magic any cushion (review here)and loving it I decided to get this. (warning! lots of pictures!)




 The compact is the same size as the any cushion and they have repackaged it so they both have the same design n the front (the old packaging was a swirly E )
The box has a side of English which tells you the ingredients and how to apply.

 Open it up and you'll find a large mirror and the puff applicator.
 


The puff is a royal blue colour(sorry mine is a little dirty from using it) its made from a special rubber material and designed to absorb little product so its not wasteful.
 

Inside is the cushion soaked in the product and there is a lid o cover it so it doesn't dry out.
 
To apply simply push the puff into the sponge and pat all over your face, im not sure if this is a foundation or bb cream as it doesn't say, it feels more like a bb cream because it is very moist and hydrating and has many benefits for the skin including spf 50 pa+++ which is great since I don't need to apply sunscreen. it also claims to be brightening, wrinkle reducing, sebum control and provide perfect coverage.

no makeup


one layer
two layers

 One layer provides a light coverage and evens out the skin tone, It can cover minor acne scars but you can see it didn't cover the pimple on my cheek very well. Two layers covered the pimple just fine but id prefer to just use concealer. I have oily skin and the staying power is around 4 hours before it starts to look oily and slide off, however a little bit of powder can easily fix this.  I think this would work best for people with normal skin/oily because oil control is okay but clings to dry areas, making them look cakey.

Overall I really like this cushion  makeup, the puff makes application very easy and its very handy for travel as you can do your makeup anywhere with everything provided in the compact. I love that it has such a high spf and the packaging is adorable. I bought mine of ebay for around £10
