![]() ![]() Blemishes, acne, and rosacea WILL absolutely show through! I would say that this product is ideal for those who do not have any skin issues and are looking to enhance their skin, rather than covering it up. However, I do prefer sheer coverage and find that the quality of the formula is excellent. I really like this product, but it is expensive. No - the refill does not fit into any Korean cushion compact. The cushion + case is $48.00 USD, and the refills are $38.00 USD each.Īside from the price, if you are a fan of Korean cushions then the YSL Touche Éclat cushion will be an easy transition. This means that you are getting significantly less for your money. The downside about the YSL cushion is that it DOES. I just like how the YSL cushion is easier to purchase so I don't have to worry about where to source it from when I am running low. Still not a large variety but still better than most. The YSL Touche Éclat cushion comes in 7 shades from B10 Porcelain to B60 Amber. Okay, let's just skip everyone in the NC25 - NC42 shade range. but for some reason the shade range jumps from 23 to 33. For instance, the Mamonde Cushion is available for purchase in the U.S. One of my biggest pet peeves about Korean cushions is the serious lack of shade range and / or availability. I like to refer to this video of Wayne Goss demonstrating how much foundation is actually needed in order to achieve the amount of SPF protection listed on the packaging. It is important to note that SPF from makeup does not provide enough sun protection and is practically a sales gimmick. However, if you already use Korean products then you most likely already use a stand alone sunscreen. This cushion does not contain SPF like most Korean cushions do. The YSL Touche Éclat cushion also contains nearly the same amount of product as most Korean cushions coming in at 0.53oz. The mesh releases just the right amount of product for application and doesn't spill out. Most Korean Cushion foundations utilize a sponge to hold the product, but with the YSL cushion the product is pushed through a decorative mesh. HOW DOES THE YSL CUSHION COMPARE TO KOREAN CUSHIONS? I would say that it gives a satiney finish as opposed to dewy. The coverage is not very buildable, and if you already have good skin it will give you a nice healthy glow. The formula has a similar consistency to Philosophy's Renewed Hope in a Jar Skin Tint. The YSL cushion in shade B50 is a little darker than Laneige Shade 31. ![]() *Note: Laneige Pore Control Shade 31 is lighter than IOPE Air Cushion N31 I have also taken a swatch comparison of the YSL Cushion against the Laneige Pore Control Cushion in shade 31 for reference: The YSL Touche Éclat cushion blends very nicely on NC37 skin and looks natural. When I first swatched it I was a little worried that the B50 Honey shade was slightly too dark, but then I realized that it is similar to the IOPE Air Cushion N31 shade. I get my puffs from Jolse for like $4, but they are easy to find online. The Rubycell puff fits nicely into the YSL cushion case as well. I quickly switched it out for a Rubycell puff (from IOPE) and the application is far better. It does neither of these effectively and seems to just absorb product. It is supposed to be a dual purpose puff where you can pat using one end and swipe using the other. No primers or concealers were used for this performance test.įirst off, the puff sucks. ![]()
