Traveling with your liquid foundation could be the worst nightmare….not only does it takes up too much space in your makeup bag, but there’s also a chance of spilling and making a whole mess.
Luckily beauty brands now have a solution for us! Compact-liquid-foundation! And Lancome is not going to miss this trend.
This year Lancome launched their Miracle Cushion (Western countries) or also known as the Blanc Expert Cushion UV Compact (Asian Countries). Which is basically liquid foundation soaked in a sponge and placed in a compact for convenience and hygiene.

Finish of Foundation: Natural to slightly glowy
Coverage of Foundation: light to light/medium
Effect: Hydrated skin, even skin tone, feels like you have no makeup on! Great for those who do not have problematic and just want to perfect your skin like it’s been photoshopped.
Ingredients:
Verdict:
I’d say that this is a great product for traveling, but I wouldn’t say that it's been able to compete with the traditional liquid foundation in a bottle. The sun protection in this foundation is also minimal with SPF of only 23 and PA of only two pluses, which aren’t enough for us gals in the tropic. Also, this will not be a hit for gals with problematic skin or those will hyperpigmentation, as the coverage is pretty sheer. I’d say that product is only good for travel or for a no-makeup look for people with good skin to start with.
See you guys in my next post! <3 xoxo
