I went cushion compact obsessed earlier this year so I almost completely missed trying out the AmorePacific Age Correcting Foundation Cushion Broad Spectrum SPF 25 ($80). I can't believe I missed this! But I am so glad I have this compact in my life now. No joke this is the best cushion compact I have ever used and I've tried a lot. I love the coverage and how it covers the pores around my nose without caking up. It has great medium to full coverage and it literally feels weightless on your skin. One tip, it's not a "juicy cushion" so don't dab your pad in there multiple times. Just dab it once in the compact and dab on your skin to first see how much coverage you are getting. You'll find that you don't need to dab too much into the cushion to cover your entire face. Once you do cover your face, immediately I just see a beautiful, even skin tone. I read that for fuller coverage you can use a foundation brush to really build it on your face. For me, I really like using the pad it comes with.
This cushion compact is fortified with AmorePacific's famous green tea formula that is an antioxidant to help with anti-aging. I've had zero breakouts from using the cushion. I also don't normally wear foundation each day but I've become so addicted to how my skin looks that I've been wearing it every day, even on the weekend. It's hydrating too. My skin doesn't look dried out. It feels like it goes from cream to powder on the skin.
I wish the SPF was higher but that's ok for now. I use a SPF 50 with my moisturizer and will just continue to do so before I use the cushion compact. AmorePacific does have the Color Control Cushion Compact that has SPF 50+ and has light coverage. But I really love that this Age Correcting Foundation Cushion has that green tea formula that's so good for my skin and is working triple duty with the AmorePacific serum and moisturizer I am using each day as well.
There are only five shades for this cushion compact and I have it in 204 for light/medium (yellow skintone). This matches PEFECTLY to my skin tone.
One of my favorite things also about this AmorePacific cushion compact is the pad itself. The top of it is a leather or pleather material and the other side is a really soft sponge. None of the foundation absorbs through to the leather side. It's really easy to put my fingers through the ribbon to dab this over my face.
Lastly and another huge plus, this cushion compact comes with one extra refill in the box! So you really are getting your money's worth with this product.
If you have a Nordstrom near you, they may have an AmorePacific counter. (They do at the Westfield in San Francisco.) Try this compact out because it feels so light on your skin and you won't believe the coverage!
Pick up the Amore Pacific Age Correcting Foundation Cushion Broad Spectrum SPF 25 at Nordstrom.
