etude house precious mineral any cushion


 
I got this in a little shop in the Netherlands. I found them online and realized they sold Korean make up. I went to pay them a visit and found the etude house precious mineral any cushion bb cream. This was actually on my wish list for my trip to Japan this summer. But I already found it now. I got it in #2 light beige. I think this is the lightest color they have.

 
 
The bb cream comes in a carton box on the back I think the ingredients are listed. It is all in Korean so I do not know what is inside this bb cream. On the side of the box the color is indicated.

 
The cushion itself has a white simple container with a click button to open it. This is one big plus since this does not require any strength and my nails won’t break.  


 
 
After pushing the button the cushion opens according to the picture above. A small mirror comes out. This can be used for touch ups and a puff is in this layer. I like the puff and will be using it for applying this bb cream.
 


You can open the bb cream by opening the puff holder. The actual cushion is comes out. The darkness shocked me. I had to check the box once again to see if I indeed had the right color. Yes I did. So I went in with the puff and saw that the color that came of was a lot lighter than it seemed in the holder. You have to push quite hard to get some bb cream out but that is fine by me. It is not like I have to push all the way to the bottom but just a little bit. I know that when the cushion seems to have run out of bb cream you can use a tweezer and turn it over so you can use the other side.  

 
On my skin it gave a light to medium coverage. As you can see my skin looks pretty evened out except for my two spots under my cheekbone. But with a bit of concealer anything can disappear. I like how light it felt on my skin and it gave me a healthy glow. It stayed on for the entire day but after a couple of hours it did become flakey. Now I do not have a dry skin, so I was a bit surprised to see the flakey bb cream at the end of the day. So now I know that next time I have a long day I will not wear this. But if I have to go somewhere for an hour or so and I do not want anything heavy, this will be my go to product.
A warning though there is a lot of perfume in this bb cream. Just when opening the packaging a flowery smell came out. It is something that I like since it does not smell chemical. But if your skin has a strong reaction to perfume, leave this product.
See you next time,
Leonie
