I know that about 65,986 reviews have already been written about this cushion, but I am an Asian Beauty Baby, so everything is new khổng lồ me. The Missha M Magic Cushion was an impulse buy from eBay (and got khổng lồ me from Korea within a week with miễn phí shipping, which felt almost as good as a puppy falling asleep on my face) because, well, cushion.I normally don"t wear any foundation-type makeup, & don"t intend to, but I have been quite happy with my Lebelage 3 Effect BB Cream (another impulse buy from eBay, one of the very first since I discovered AB products a few weeks ago,) & I now get the idea behind an even skin tone. Yup, that is completely new lớn me, too.So, I took a deep breath, and ordered the Missha cushion.There are way too many photos available online about the packaging already, so I"ll post another one because, why not? It seems quite sturdy & pretty, but the mirror isn"t that helpful since it"s not, well, a mirror, but it seems like it"s a sheet of steel. Or something. Point is, you can only see a very airbrushed version of your face in it.EDIT: thanks to lớn the ladies of the most awesome Asian beauty community ever (I am certainly talking about the Asian Beauty Subreddit,) I now know that there"s a very tight, very unnoticeable film on the mirror that I have to peel off. Underneath it, there is an actual mirror. Now I feel lượt thích a complete ass.

The cream itself looks dark, but it really isn"t. It might actually be a little too light for my face,. It is extremely creamy, easy khổng lồ apply and blend, but it"s so. Damn. Shiny.
Now, I understand that it"s a look, and it should make you look lượt thích a porcelain doll fresh out of the porcelain doll factory, but for someone with very oily skin (that would be yours truly,) shiny is something you just. Don"t. Want.

I have a sebum-control powder on the way from Korea, and I will have khổng lồ see if that helps achieve more of a matted look with this cushion.
It does feel light on my skin, and it provides quite a good coverage without having lớn keep adding layer after layer.
Here, I applied it to lớn my entire face first and, finally, I added my daily makeup (which is a Maybelline mascara, a tinted lip balm, and a little bit of a blush. I keep it simple, yo!)

It does make my skin nicer, it helps the skin tone and my under-eye circles,but I am having a very hard time with the sheen. The overly-dewiness, which just makes my face look oily, really. It doesn"t help with my pores, và it keeps gradually looking more và more oily as the hours go by. Blotting does help, but the sheen stays...
