LANEIGE NEO Foundation_Matte + LANEIGE NEO Cushion_Matte review: Weekend brunch + shopping test

Reviewer: Melissa, senior campaign executiveSkin type: Combination-oily, sensitiveSkin concerns: Uneven skin tone, hormonal acne, blackheads, and dark eye circles

“I’ve been using cushion foundations for about five years now and tried pretty much every brand out there, including LANEIGE’s OG BB Cushion. I lượt thích that the NEO Cushion is a lot lighter và sleeker, which makes for easy portability especially when you want khổng lồ carry it everywhere you go.

I also really like the puff as it doesn’t absorb all the sản phẩm without leaving any on your face, which is what some cushion puffs do. In terms of coverage, I’d say that the NEO Cushion is somewhat similar lớn a full-coverage foundation even though the texture is thinner, but it doesn’t feel as heavy on my skin or leave it looking too matte after application, which is quite common for most cushions.

It does have a slight fragrance, which you might want to be cautious about and do a patch test first if your skin is sensitive to lớn fragrances. But, the scent disappears after a while upon application, which is great especially since we’re wearing masks now và would not want any lingering fragrance on our skin.

How my complexion looked while en route to brunch

For my skin type and concerns, I wore a combination of LANEIGE NEO Foundation_Matte và NEO Cushion_Matte in shade 21N Beige for a day out with my friends. I started my day with the NEO Foundation before heading out for a weekend brunch at Luke’s Lobster, which I’ve been wanting lớn try for the longest time!

I was expecting the foundation to lớn feel uncomfortable on my skin but to my surprise, it was the complete opposite. The formula was neither too watery nor thick, & it spread out pretty evenly on the skin without leaving an obvious layer of foundation pigments that may suffocate and cause dryness.

I used one pump, which was just enough for the entire face and neck – a little goes a long way for this formula! The NEO Foundation also has a mild scent that’s similar khổng lồ the NEO Cushion, but personally, I’d say that it’s slightly less scented.

Shopping for bedding essentials at one of my favourite stores, Muji

After filling up my tummy with yummy lobster rolls, I went to lớn Muji, one of my favourite stores to vày some shopping. This was after one o’clock in the afternoon & I’d already had my foundation on for close lớn five hours now, but lớn my surprise, I didn’t see the need khổng lồ touch up at all as the foundation didn’t oxidise or budge and my complexion remained fresh-looking.

Midday kiểm tra on the LANEIGE NEO Foundation on my skin

My skin also didn’t feel as oily by midday as it usually would, which I was quite surprised about as well. As I went about my day in the shopping mall, the foundation only felt more comfortable on my skin, so much so that I almost forgot that I actually had makeup on!

They say time flies when you’re having fun and having been unable to lớn roam around freely pre-vaccination, I certainly didn’t realise how much time I spent shopping at Muji and all the other stores. It’s close lớn early dinner time now, about 6.30pm và I headed to lớn my next venue for dinner with some close friends.

My complexion after wearing the LANEIGE Neo Foundation for more than 8 hours

Just before stepping into the restaurant, I checked my makeup using the built-in mirror in the NEO Cushion’s compact khổng lồ see if I needed any touch-up. After all, I’ve been wearing the same foundation since 9am!

Again, to lớn my surprise, I needed no touch-up whatsoever because the foundation was that long-lasting. Even after more than nine hours, the coverage on my dark circles & blemishes remained intact và it didn’t wear off or oxidise either.

My skin did become slightly oily by the kết thúc of the day, but I only needed khổng lồ use a tissue to pat off the excess oil after dinner. The longevity of the NEO Foundation is truly something that I’m quite amazed by, and if you’re someone who prefers full coverage that covers up skin imperfections while looking natural, I highly recommend the NEO Foundation.

As mentioned, the foundation shade that I tried also stayed true lớn its shade all the way from morning to lớn night without darkening my skin, which I really liked! I carried the NEO Cushion_Matte with me just in case I needed some touch-up lớn brighten my face or on problem areas lượt thích my forehead và dark circles, but lucky for me, mine didn’t budge from 9am to lớn 9pm.

After trying these two makeup bases, I definitely have no qualms about adding the NEO Foundation and NEO Cushion to lớn my existing makeup routine. Both products are so fuss-free khổng lồ use, và they leave my skin looking beautifully natural too!”

LANEIGE NEO Foundation_Glow review: Daily virtual meeting + indoor workout test

Reviewer: Lynnett, senior writerSkin type: Combination-drySkin concerns: Uneven skin tone, textured skin, dehydration, dark eye circles

“Ever since WFH became our default arrangement, our schedule has been packed with mostly virtual meetings on Zoom & Google Meet.

Even on a personal level, I’ve started subscribing to virtual trang chủ workout programmes lớn minimise my time outdoors as much as possible.

That said, I still need to make sure that I look presentable on-screen during days that I have to attend my virtual meetings which is why a cushion compact like the LANEIGE NEO Cushion comes in handy for a fuss-free makeup user lượt thích me.

I was a huge fan hâm mộ of the original BB Cushion by LANEIGE when it launched; in fact, it was the cushion compact that converted me into a cushion user. So, I was excited khổng lồ try the all-new NEO Cushion_Glow to lớn see if it can help with the dullness & unevenness of my skin tone just like how the original BB Cushion did.

I’m happy with fuss-free natural makeup that can make me look less exhausted, and LANEIGE’s NEO Cushion did just that

Right off the bat during application, I noticed how easy it was khổng lồ blend out the cushion formula & it wasn’t as drying as some other cushions I’ve tried.

On top of that, the cushion did a brilliant job at covering up my severe dark circles và blemishes for a natural-looking finish while remaining lightweight – the coverage is sufficient enough that I didn’t even feel there was a need lớn reach for my usual trusted concealer to finish the job.

With my natural makeup done & dusted, I got my liquid breakfast ready at my workstation while waiting for my first meeting of the day with my colleagues.

Almost instantly, they remarked that my complexion looked more radiant and my skin glowed so naturally without looking like a disco ball – it was such a nice compliment khổng lồ hear on a gloomy morning.

After wrapping up my meeting & clearing some emails, it was time for me to head out lớn buy lunch. Since I had another Zoom call in the afternoon, I opted to tư vấn the coffee shop within the vicinity & got myself a hearty bowl of salted egg chicken rice.

Just before my 2pm meeting, I changed into my workout gear khổng lồ mentally psych myself for my evening at-home yoga. Afterwards, I gave my skin a quick kiểm tra to see if a touch-up was needed.

Surprise surprise, the cushion foundation was still very much intact – including the coverage on my dark circles – even though I was sweating profusely from the humid weather.

Working out with makeup on wasn’t an issue at all when you use the LANEIGE NEO Cushion

As I continued working through the afternoon, I noticed that the NEO Cushion wore so comfortably as time passed và because it adhered to my skin so well, it didn’t feel like there was any foundation at all – that’s how natural the finish was.

Even as I continued on with my indoor workout, my skin didn’t feel like it was suffocating from the makeup I was wearing. More surprisingly, the cushion barely budged despite my heavy perspiration from my home yoga – except for the spots where I wiped off my sweat with my hand.

LANEIGE NEO Cushion remained intact even after my trang chủ workout

It’s now 7.30pm và because I was too tired lớn head out, I decided khổng lồ order in my dinner. Just before I stepped into the shower and have my makeup removed, I gave my skin one last check.

I was truly in awe at the longevity of the cushion because it was still holding up well even though I’ve had it on since 8.30am – that’s more than 10 hours since the application!

The fact that I barely needed any touch-up is such a great bonus too, which makes the NEO Cushion a godsend for all of us busy urbanites who don’t have time for a full face of makeup but still want to look presentable for meetings, be it virtual or in-person.

If you ask me, I’d say that the LANEIGE NEO Cushion definitely helps me achieve the natural makeup that I prefer so quickly and effortlessly, so that I can use my time more efficiently without having lớn worry about my makeup all the time Safe to lớn say, I’ve found my new holy grail cushion foundation – và the best part? It doesn’t break the bank.
