I waited for almost 11 months to finish my skin79 bb cushion before I tried this. This is not a real first impression, since I first used this in my How to hide you've been crying makeup. But it will be unfair to have a first impressions during that time, since my skin was not in its best condition.
The shade that I got is No. 13 True Beige
Packaging
| The cushion compact is made of plastic, white at the bottom with silver lining of the cover. It looks simple and elegant. The quality of the plastic is good and sturdy. It comes with blue puff and behind the cover is a mirror. The cushion is like your any standard cushion. |

Application
|
I initially prepped my face with moisturizer and sunblock which is my usual routine of makeup. I know there were some reviews that this will not work well with sunblock underneath, but I still prepped my face with sunblock. Of course, if I'm to use this for my everyday base makeup routine, I should check if it will work with my usual routine of having sunblock underneath.
When you apply it, the sponge is soft and you can feel that there's even application of the bb cream. It has a natural to slightly dewy finish which I love. Upon application, you can feel a little hint of coolness onto your skin. The coverage is medium and excellent, it's lightweight and isn't drying, actually I think it provided a little bit of moisture to my face since I feel my skin didn't dry up. This is great for people with dry to normal skin type. It's not patchy also.
Now let's check for its longevity:
The bb cream lasted for around 7 hours and I love that it stayed pretty well on my skin.
I had some concerns though... We went to Tanay Rizal the first time I intended to do this review, and it kind of disnintegrated and got patchy at the corners of my nose. The weather during that time was cold around 20C and it rained a little.
However when I tested this during a regular Manila weather (hot...), it lightened after around 8 hours at the corner of my nose, but the rest stayed on pretty well.
