REVIEW | Laneige BB Cushion SPF50







Since I have very large pores you can see how the coverage it on my skin, which is a bit red from lack of sleep yesterday

Pros
Good coverage
Easy application
Dewy finish
Doesn't make skin oily
SPF 50

Cons
Doesn't seem to set
Packaging might be a bit wasteful

Price
$34 for two 15 g compacts

Verdict
After trying the Hera BB cushion (review here) I wasn't a huge fan since the BB doesn't seem to set and could look a bit cakey as the day goes on. I notice the Laneige and Hera both rub off on clothes if you're not careful, and the first day I wore the Laneige I could feel the BB on my face. I did notice it doesn't make my face oily or anything despite being dewy, which is a plus. Today I used a different sunscreen and it feels lighter on my skin.
The worst problem I have with a lot of foundations is it settling into my pores, but the Laneige looks fine on my skin, as you can tell.

One thing I noticed about the sponge: It applies really well, but sometimes the BB gets stuck in the crevice on the side of the sponge, which is no biggie. Just need to be careful because I got some on my eyelid when I was applying it between my eyebrows.

Would I recommend this?
Yes.

Repurchase?
Possibly. 
This girl I ran into at Target says one package lasts her about 3 months, so we'll see how long this lasts me

After like 30 clicks

Top left: bare skin
Bottom left: 1 layer
Right: touch up more red spots

12hrs later
With the Laura Gellar Baked Balance-and-Brighten

Pros
Good coverage
SPF30+
Buildable

Cons
Kind of unsanitary
Limited color selection

Price
$20 for 0.08 oz / 2.5 ml at Target

Verdict
Rating: B-
This concealer looks great at first, but if you have oily skin it might start melting off throughout the day. I was pleasantly surprised by the coverage it provides considering it seems like it might be a moisturizing undereye concealer rather than high coverage for blemishes. If you can find your shade in this concealer I definitely recommend it. A translucent powder probably sets the concealer a lot better.
The cushion blends the concealer well into your skin, but it just seems so unsanitary and I'm a little lazy to wash it all the time, so I just use my finger to dab it on my blemishes. I'm not sure Laneige is made for oily-skinned gals, but I'll try out a few more products before I make my decision for it as a brand.

Repurchase?
No.

Would I recommend it?
It is a good product, but the packaging is a bit unsanitary. Plus when I click up the pen I feel like there's not much product there so it won't last you that long. I'd go with a Maybelline concealer
