[Review] moonshot Micro Correctfit Foundation 201

moonshot Micro Correctfit cushion was my favorite base makeup last year. I loved the longevity and the finish of it. So I was very excited to see a foundation version of my favourite cushion



The packaging is similar to all moonahot products. A beautiful galaxy inspired purple box in which the foundation is enclosed


The bottle itself is simple and made out of frosted glass with a purple plastic pump and ombre purple/pink cap



Features
A light and powerful foundation that covers the skin perfectly with the High Covering Pigment.
Dense micro-particles fit delicately on the skin, completing smooth, porcelain-like skin expressions.
The long-wearing foundation covers the skin without the necessity for inconvenient makeup correction.






I picked the shade 201 as the color match my skin tone. The first time when I applied to my skin I will admit I was confused. Because unlike my favorite cushion. The foundation looked patchy and uneven on mu face. There was considerable bunching/ cakey effect on the sides of my nose moreover my face looked very dry ( please note that I have oily skin so this unusual dryness was very new for me)



So I read the directions carefully and found out that I forgot to shake the bottle before using. So on my second application I shook the bottle well, and used Moonshot Multi Protection Tinted moisturizer as a base and Viola my base makeup looked perfect ( if I say so myself)



I have noticed that you really don't need powder on top to set the foundation as it already contains particles to set the base. Moreover applying a thin layer with a cushion sponge worked best for me. The finish initially looks semi matte but after few minutes it completely sets to a velvet like matte finish. In terms of coverage this provides slightly cover than the cushion. It also lasts a bit longer too.

If you loved the moonshot Micro Correctfit cushion I highly recommend you to try this as this is a slightly upgraded version which will last you a lot longer than a cushion

[Review] moonshot Multi Protection Tinted Moisture SPF30 PA++ 40ml

This product was launched earlier this year but back then I was more curious about the cushion than this so I picked the cushion . These days my skin has been looking extra dull so I wanted to try a new base/primer .something that could moisture and brighten my complexion


Features

Contains hyaluronic acid complex and panthenol to reduce keratin and make skin radiant.
It replenishes moisture without greasy and express smooth skin.
It brightens skin tone with one touch and turns the skin lively.


The description ticked off all of my skin concerns so my expectations were quite high


The packaging is luxe. It comes in a pretty pink squeeze tube packaging with a pump. I find the pump to be quite hygienic handy as it dispenses the right amount of product each time

Ingredients:

Water, Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate, Butylene Glycol, Cyclopentasiloxane, Titanium Dioxide (CI 77891), Dicaprylyl Carbonate, Ethylhexyl Salicylate, Cyclohexasiloxane, Glycerin, Niacinamide, Pentylene Glycol, Gossypium Herbaceum (Cotton) Seed Oil, Hyaluronic Acid, Hydrolyzed Hyaluronic Acid, Sodium Hyaluronate, Diethylamino Hydroxybenzoyl Hexyl Benzoate, Diphenylsiloxy Phenyl Trimethicone, Octyldodecanol, Polymethylsilsesquioxane, Triceteareth-4 Phosphate, Glycol Stearate, Glyceryl Stearate, PEG-100 Stearate, PEG-2 Stearate, Potassium Cetyl Phosphate, Hydroxyethyl Acrylate/Sodium Acryloyldimethyl Taurate Copolymer, Ammonium Acryloyldimethyltaurate/VP Copolymer, PEG-10 Dimethicone, Aluminum Hydroxide, Squalane, Stearic Acid, Tromethamine, Ethylhexylglycerin, Polysorbate 60, Adenosine, Triethoxycaprylylsilane, Sorbitan Isostearate, 1,2-Hexanediol, Hydrogenated Lecithin, Polyglyceryl-10 Stearate, Panthenol, Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate, Tocopheryl Acetate, Glyceryl Arachidonate, Glyceryl Linolenate, Biotin, Retinyl Palmitate, Carbomer, Disodium EDTA, Phenoxyethanol, Fragrance(Parfum), Ultramarines (CI 77007), Mica (CI 77019), Iron Oxides (CI 77491)


This has a nice fragrance. This primer is pink in color and when you apply it to the face it initially gives a bit of brightening to the skin .


It actually quite easy to spread and moisturizes skin quite well without enhancing skin texture.


I have used this under cushion and bottle foundations and it has worked like magic both times. To me this is a actually a mutiple benefit product : it brightens skin, gives sun protection, moisturizes skin and also sits so well under makeup as a primer


I haven't seen this help with pores or sebum ( nor does it claim to do so ) but it does not enhance the sebum production on my face either. Personally I find this to be a really good primer for the current cold weather and my oily / dehydrated skin

Review] moonshot Stick Extreme Pro Seiene

Reve De Paris collection is the latest makeup launch from the Brand Moonshot. The theme revolves around romantic dream and French street. When I first saw this advertised on Instagram I wanted to get the whole collection because the rich fall hues and rose color was calling my name. I had such a hard time holding myself back from adding the whole collection to my cart.


After a lot of reasoning and self control I got only one lipstick in shade ''Seiene '' from the collection.

Features
Real Coloring - Provide lasting color with UHD pigment. Easy Blur Fit - Provide hydration while making velvet matte finish.


The packaging is color coded so it matches the lipstick bullet . Compared to a regular lipstick the size is actually small which is actually very cute and purse friendly. I really appreciate the fact that moonshot cut down the size but kept the quantity same for the lipstick



The color is a muted/nude pink with brown undertones. The color looks so beautiful on its own as an everyday lipcolor or a base to enhance darker lipsticks or as gradient lips




For some reason I thought that the lipstick would be matte and drying but the first swipe proved me I was wrong. This is extremely creamy and glides on the lips easily . The creamy texture dries down to a smooth powder like finish. My lips look smooth , beautiful and I can't see any creasing. Due to its creamy texture its not smudge proof/ transfer proof.  The lasting power is around 4-5 hours without eating or drinking



My only regret is not getting more colors from the range because its so beautiful. The color is a universal nude that will complement all skin colors. Moonshot once again has created a master piece with their new collection. Its beautiful, sturdy and appropriate for all skin colors

moonshot Stick Extreme Pro in Seiene is available at Jolse

[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:

Water,Titanium Dioxide (CI77891), Cyclopentasiloxane,Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate,Ethylhexyl Salicylate,Methyl Trimethicone,Dimethicone,Glycerin,Lauryl PEG-10 Tris(Trimethylsiloxy)silylethyl Dimethicone,Butylene Glycol,Diphenylsiloxy Phenyl Trimethicone,Hexyldecyl Myristoyl Methylaminopropionate,Niacinamide,Pentylene Glycol,HDI/Trimethylol Hexyllactone Crosspolymer,Diphenyl Dimethicone/Vinyl Diphenyl Dimethicone/Silsesquioxane Crosspolymer,Iron Oxides (CI 77492),PEG-9 Polydimethylsiloxyethyl Dimethicone,PEG-10 Dimethicone,Persea Gratissima (Avocado) Fruit Extract,Magnesium Sulfate,Aluminum Hydroxide,Dimethicone/Vinyl Dimethicone Crosspolymer,Polypropylsilsesquioxane,Disteardimonium Hectorite,Cetearyl Dimethicone/Vinyl Dimethicone Crosspolymer,Stearic Acid,Triethoxycaprylylsilane,Ethylhexylglycerin,Silica,Adenosine,Maltodextrin,Disodium EDTA,Phenoxyethanol,Fragrance(Parfum),Iron Oxides (CI 77491),Iron Oxides (CI 77499)

 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.
