[Review] moonshot Micro Correct Fit Cushion 201 Beige

I like to call this the  second installment in the moonshot Microfit cushion series. This cushion is also endorsed by Lisa from Black Pink


Moonshot is a korean cosmetic brand launched by YG Entertainment. The brand is popular for its Celebrity endorsed makeup


I also love the galaxy inspired box ( too pretty to throw it out ).This time around I opened the box from the back ( that is why the front is completely intact).


Micro Correctfit cushion 201Micro Ingredient:

 The packaging is quite similar to the Moonshot Micro Setting Fit Cushion except that its more pink purple and the case is slightly larger. To me this looks a lot prettier than the holographic case to be honest


The case is made out of plastic. for the price tha quality of the case is not lux but its not bad either.  This sells for 25.45$ on Jolse website just like other Moonshot cushion but you can always save a few bucks and grab this on sale at Jolse. So far no refill is available but I am sure Moonshot will lauch them soon.  doesn't come with a refill and two the plastic feels a little flimsy. There are three shades in the range this time around. 101 Ivory and 201 Beige and 301 Honey. I picked 201 for this cushion as well because I like my foundation to look natural.

Features
A cushion completely covers up dull skin, blemishes so that it helps express flawless skin. It is excellent at the persistence of long-lasting while making skin look smooth and supple.
*Color options: # 101: Ivory (Bright Ivory 19-23) # 201: Beige (Natural and Soft Beige 22-23) # 301: Honey (Calm Honey 23-24)
*The Correct fit Cushion is not compatible with the three types of moonshot cushions
(Micro Setting Fit Cushion, Micro Fit Cushion, Face Perfection Balm Cushion).


There is a decent sized mirror and a pastel purple teardrop shaped ruby cell air puff. The  puff is squishy, soft and very well stitched. This particular cushion comes in 15g packaging which is great since all the previous moonshot cushions had 12g of product in them.


The shade is nice match for my skin color but it has a bit of a pink base to it. I can detect a bit of fragrance too ( I have a stuffy nose so my sense of smell is not that accurate at the moment). like its predecessor this too has very liquid-y consistency but with more pigmented. Now that I have tried and tested this along side the Moonshot Micro Setting Fit Cushion I have noticed that this does a far more better job at covering blemishes and imperfections.

The finish of this is satin. Its semi matte and feels very comfortable.
Since the weather is cold and dry at the moment I can't comment if it will hold up in humid weather or not but so far it blends easily and stays put for 8hrs as well.  Though it has a slightly dewy finish it does not transfer to cellphone screen. Moreover I didn't see it oxide to a darker shade.  It did wear off a little bit off my nose ( habitual of touching my nose during the day). My fave did get oily after few hours but thw sebum didn't break the foundation or cause creasing. A few pats with a blotting paper and touch up with a cushion puff made my skin look fresh again.

Speaking of touch ups this cushion has a great formula which can layered up several times without looking gross or pilling.  I have layered/ touch up my face several times and it did well on each re-application

For dry skin types Moonshot has launched a special primer to go along with personally I have oily skin so I didn't felt the need to use a primer. As this has SPF 50+ PA+++ I skip sunscreen on days I wear this. Now that I have tried this I actually like this a lot more than Moonshot Micro Setting Fit Cushion.

I am so happy that Moonshot has increased the volume of product in this cushion

[Review] Moonshot Micro Setting Fit Cushion 201 Beige

So I got my hands on the popular Lisa Cushion aka Moonshot Micro Setting Fit Cushion. Incase you are wondering who is Lisa she is member of Korean Pop music band Black Pink. 


Moonshot is a korean mid range cosmetic brand launched by YG Entertainment. The successful launch of their products (and ofcourse celebrity endorsements) has made them quite popular in the cosmetic industry.


I will start with the packaging which is quite eye-catching. The brand definitely thought out of the box by placing this cushion in galaxy inspired box (lol get the pun? ) I don't think I will ever have the strength to throw away this beautiful packaging.


On opening the box I was met with a beautiful holographic cushion case . I like how they balanced the glittery holo by keeping the sides of case matte black.


Compared to the cushion foundations I have in my stash this plastic case looks slim. This retails for 25.45$ on jolse website which is steep for a cushion because one it doesn't come with a refill and two the plastic feels a little flimsy. There are two shades in the range 101 Ivory and 201 Beige. Even though I have fair skin I picked 201 beige because swatch of shade 101 looked very light for my skin color.


Features
A long-wearing and buildable real fixing cushion foundation
A weightless adherence by Microfit Technology. Infused 10ppm of aqualicia extract which hydrates your skin

How To Use
Use the puff to gently apply from the inner center of the face outwards.

Volume : 12g



There is a  regular size mirror and a pastel purple tear drop shaped ruby cell air puff. The  puff is soft and good quality. The straps are definitely well stitched. I never knew what I was missing out on until I tried out the puff and realized that the shape of tear drop could improve the makeup application considerably. This puff makes  foundation  and concealer application under my eyes and around my nose easy.


When I tore of the seal on the cushion I was so happy to see that shade matched my skin perfectly. The formula has a mild fragrance and is lightweight. Due to its liquid-y consistency it blends really nice without settling into pores and fine lines. This initially feels moist and dewy but after a minute or so the foundation drys down to almost matte finish. So you really don't need powder on top to set this.



The color remains true to its original shade throughout the day. (didn't oxidize to a weird orange color or anything) The coverage is medium and builable. I dont have any pimples on my face at the moment to cover but I applied this over an eyeliner and I could see the hint of line visible underneath the foundation.



This lasted for 7 hours on my face with a little bit of fading on my nose area. ( I have a bad habit of subconsciously touching my nose so the base makeup often tends to rub off by the end of the day) . But the rest of my face looked presentable. My cheeks and forhead looked dewy due to sebum seeping through. But there was no creasing or gross island like texture by the end of the day. I have worn this several times and luckily this didnt clog my pores


This is definitely transferproof and humidity proof. I would suggest wearing this on its own because primer underneath this foundation for some reason accentuate texture of skin. This cushion is definitely a keeper as it its a two in one product ( SPF 50+ PA+++) I only wish that it came with a refill and had a little more product than 12g.
