LANCOME MIRACLE CUSHION

Lancôme launched it a few weeks ago an innovation in products for the skin on the French market: the Miracle Cushion . Indeed, I said on the French market since such products exist for a while in Asia.

I had the opportunity to test this new and I come to you today to deliver my impressions. To begin, a "Cushion", what is it?

It is a product for the complexion as "cushion" oxygenated. At the heart of this compact texture are dragged thousands of air holes that allow, when we pass the sponge or your finger on it to release the pigments using light pressure.

The Miracle Cushion presents itself as a setting reminiscent of a powder but is much thicker. When you press the clip cover, it rises and reveals a velvety applicator very similar dish one we found once again in the powders but is, unlike those, smooth.

To access the product must be raised a lid that protects the product and keeps its "natural moisture".

Know that I present today the lightest shade: 01. And if you too have fair skin, I think your response was exactly the same as mine when I raised the lid:

Oh. My God.

This is ... ORANGE.

But it will be back in a few minutes.

So back to the texture of this "hybrid": this is neither a compact foundation or a foam foundation. This is indeed a "compact aqueous fluid" (yes, all that) that approaches a whipped cream and thus offers a rather innovative texture. The advantage is that this approach frees the texture evenly and lightly on the sponge velvet touch (polyurethane).

So back to the color of this product is intended to be for skin porcelain:

What is rather surprising is that the taking, it is quite orange but once spread out, it blends quite well on the skin. I think it's related to the fact that it is a product very little coverage, "second skin".

It is with great trepidation that I applied on my face for the first time because you already know but my "whiteness" does not bother me, on the contrary I maintain. I have no research to wear products "healthy glow" that are more for effect "  umpa lumpa ".

I was also apprehensive about the enclosed sponge: I swear by brush application and I was afraid that the record is not natural.

This apprehension was quickly erased when I visited that has allowed this sponge specially designed to collect and apply the product evenly and without loss of product.

Here is a "before-after" to talk about his review:

Needless to repeat that my main problem is my redness. Side formula, this aqueous product is very light and fresh on application. It also includes an SPF 23 which is always nice. The Miracle Cushion leaves a "second skin" hyper light behind him and is very comfortable.

Although its coverage is flexible and that we can re-apply to areas "problem" it's still a fairly pigmented product and the picture above, we see that even after application, some stand out a little redness (especially on my cheekbones).

Obviously, shade level, it will not. As you'll notice in the picture below, the yellow sub-tones are much too pronounced for me (my skin was rather dew at the base):

Level over, I'm pretty blown away by the effect 0 material that smoothes the skin. If the color was suitable, I think I'd be served me a "basic foundation" or the days I am very little makeup. If like me, you are a fan of spanning dyed funds, it probably will not please you because it does not really camouflages blemishes / scars or rash pronounced. However, if you appreciate the light products and spanning little or you have a fairly homogeneous skin, you should soon love it! Attention its rendering bright enough and if you have combination / oily skin you may need to powder.

The main problem is the range of colors offered: there are only 6. The clearer named "Pure Porcelain" is appropriate not to porcelain skin (because it is too yellow).

This is an original, intriguing and pleases but that is not for me and makes me which I could not use it because of this hue problem that leaves a huge demarcation in my neck. It's a shame, I still dream of the day when all makes think of both the lighter and darker skin.
