[REVIEW]: LAKME 9to5 REINVENT PRIMER+MATTE CUSHION FOUNDATION


Hello lovely readers! How’s your Monday going? Mine, was an easy one eventhough I had to face the crowd of people around Monas, Central Jakarta early this morning for work. Well, but that doesn’t change my mood to finally talk about the new cushion foundation that is currently added into my beauty shelf. Few weeks ago, Clozette Indonesia (@clozetteid) sent me the new Lakme 9to5 Reinvent Primer+Matte Cushion Foundation to try on. They know well that I love to wear cushion foundation as my daily makeup. So, here’s my thought of this cushion foundation.



FORMULA


This cushion foundation comes in 6 shades to choose from, that already suited to the skin of Indonesian women. I was given 3 shades to choose which are 02-Light Sand, 03-Medium Honey and 04-Golden Natural. I’m shade matched to a 03-Medium Honey, right as I guess it at the first time I received this product.




It has lightweight formula and have medium to high coverage. It blends easily over the face and buildable. I have blemishes around my cheeks and this cushion foundation perfectly cover them as well as my dark circles. It sets into your skin just like a sec, so it’s better for you to quick blend the cushion foundation once applies to your face before it becomes dry. The finish is velvet matte, even so, I keep set it with loose powder around my T-Zone that tends to get oily and the other parts with blush powder.


Before Application
One layer application
After full application


It also already completed with SPF 30 PA+ to give you protection from UVA and UVB rays in the afternoon. But still, I suggest you to keep using sunscreen underneath your cushion foundation.

 


PACKAGING


Just like the ordinary cushion, it comes in a standard cushion compact with shinny of rose gold design. Inside, there’s a black cushion applicator with touch of baby pink line to hold the applicator. This cushion foundation is also can be refilled, so you don’t need to worry to buy the whole package once it runs out.

FINAL THOUGHT


So far, I quite enjoy to add it as my daily makeup essentials. I have tested using this cushion foundation for over than 8 hours and yes, my T-Zone looking oily eventhough I already set them with loose powder and there’s a slightly crack on smile lines. But the other parts remain the same as in the beginning. I also quite surprise how it's building for the coverage without feeling cakey, instead it feels so smooth.
