Review: Etude House Precious Mineral Magic Any Cushion - Magic Mint



Hello everyone!
Today I am back with a new review about the most-raved product from one of my favorite Korean beauty brands (Etude House) lately..
Etude House Precious Mineral Magic Any Cushion~


Actually I was looking for a mint green makeup base to cover up the redness on my face, and I was interested to try Etude House Sweet Recipe Baby Choux Base in Mint because I have tried the Berry one before and I love it! But I noticed that there was a lot of hype about Magic Any Cushion and that is why I decided to purchase it~


I bought it for IDR 240.000 and err I think it is quite pricey for a makeup base in pact, but next time I would be able to purchase the refill which is more affordable la! And I think it is much better if you already have the case of the original Any Cushion, because it means that you only need to buy the refill *money-saving tip* LOL.


It comes in a sturdy mint box, and I found out that it contains alcohol and fragrance, so I do not recommend this product for those who have extremely sensitive skin >__<


(Description, Directions, Caution, and Ingredients)

Actually it has the same concept like Etude House Sweet Recipe Baby Choux Base, and there are three shades available with different functions:

#1 Magic Pink for pale skin tone
#2 Magic Mint for reddish skin tone
#3 Magic Peach for dull / yellowish skin tone

And as you can see.. I bought mine in Magic Mint~


It comes in a sturdy compact and it has the exactly same packaging like the original Any Cushion (except the design and the color, of course!) with refillable product inside. Umm honestly the packaging of this product is quite simple but since I am obsessed with anything mint lately, that is okay LOL.



When you open it, you will find a mirror and a puff inside. It is travel-friendly so you can carry it around inside your makeup bag wherever you go.



As you can see.. it comes with an air puff like the original Any Cushion, but in a lovely pink color instead of blue~



It also has a protective seal sticker inside~


And oh, there is also a plastic separator between the puff and the cushion~



And here is how the cushion looks like once you remove the seal~


And here is the close-up picture of the cushion, which reminds me of the moon's surface~



It contains 15 g of the product inside, and it also has SPF 34 / PA++ so you may skip to wear your sunscreen if you are too lazy hihi :P



I thought it has the same thick and creamy consistency like Baby Choux Base, but I was wrong! This one has a sheer liquid consistency, so it is very easy to spread~



And it smells so good OMG, it has a lovely floral scent which is not too strong and the scent would fade away after one or two minutes.


Just press the air puff onto the cushion to make the liquid product comes out, and lightly patting the product onto your face instead of swiping it~


It feels very light, and actually one layer is more than enough for me because it whitens my face instantly, and that is why my face look brighter than my neck area oops!

It makes my face look very glowy, which I really like. But unfortunately it feels kinda sticky on my oily-combination face, so I think this product works better for those people who have normal to dry skin.


It gives a light coverage.. almost NO coverage, I mean! And as you can see, it does not cover up my redness completely, but you can solve this problem with a concealer.


And please note that it works like a makeup base so I still need another layer of BB cream or foundation, but sometimes I just apply this product with a little bit of powder to set
on a daily basis.


Pardon my acne scars ughh ;___;

Overall, it works well as a makeup base because it makes my BB cream and foundation last longer, and it is very convenient to use because I did not need to use my finger or brush to apply this product on my face ^^

  7. Thank you so much for your review! I actually ordered the 3-samples pack of this cushion a while back and I can't wait for it to arrive. Mainly, because I had no idea which shade to purchase haha OTL. Besides, I always prefer trying out products before buying them right away. :)
    Anyway, nice review! I think I'd need the green one as well.
