ShiseidoRevitalessence Skin Glow Foundation SPF30This seems like it would suit people who like light coverage and a natural, bare-skin finish. The coverage isn't all that high, so it's reassuring to use concealer as well on areas that bother you. Especially when I was concerned about my pores, I found it a little difficult to cover them with this alone. It didn't look too bad as it wore off, but I did get the impression that it breaks down more easily in summer or when you sweat. The dewy, moisturized glow looks beautiful, so I felt it would be good for people with dry skin or as a winter makeup base.

AlbionStudio Milk FoundationAlbion, known for its pre-lotion emulsions, came out with an emulsion-inspired foundation, so I gave it a try ♡ It's so fresh and hydrating that it's labeled a "foundation/daytime emulsion," and it leaves your skin with a "milky glow," almost like it does right after skincare. I also love that you can use it without a primer, and it has solid coverage too, so I had no complaints ◎ With dry skin, some foundations can make it look flaky or parched and even make you look older, but this didn't do that at all, so it's a favorite of mine ♡ With this level of moisture, I thought it would be even easier to use during the colder months when dryness is more of a concern.

Age20'sSignature Essence Cover Pact SPF 50+A serum foundation. It doesn't dry out even after hours, so it's easy to use for any skin type! Great glow and coverage, with a glass-skin finish✨ The densely packed brush provides solid, seamless coverage! It can naturally cover dullness and uneven texture too! It adheres nicely to the skin.

VDL CosmeticsCover Stain Perfecting Foundation SPF 35I've been trying out different foundations lately, and I liked this one more than I expected. First of all, the coverage is pretty good, so one layer covers blemishes and redness to some extent, and adding one more layer only where needed gives a nice, clean finish. It doesn't feel like it goes on too thick either, so it doesn't feel heavy on the skin and looks fairly natural. I also liked that it faded naturally rather than wearing off in a really patchy way, and the staying power was decent. However, on days when my skin is really dry, it can look slightly cakey, so I'd recommend moisturizing well before applying it. Overall, the coverage is good and it gives a pretty finish, so I think I'll reach for it often as an everyday foundation. For the price, I was pretty satisfied.

ShiseidoRevitalessence Skin Glow Foundation SPF30It's a very sheer foundation without much coverage, so I think any unevenness will stand out unless you use it when your bare skin is in good condition. Using a primer that covers uneven skin tone works great. I don't really like heavy foundations, so personally I like this one because it gives a natural, glowy finish!

DecorteZen Wear Stay Liquid FoundationThis is the best best BEST foundation. This is my holy grail!!! I seriously think I'll use it for the rest of my life. What's especially amazing is that it doesn't break down. Even when I'm wearing a mask and sweating buckets in the middle of summer, it doesn't budge. I tested it by applying this to one half of my face and the other foundations I own to the other half, and while they all looked beautiful right after doing my makeup, as time passed they settled into my pores, got patchy, dried out, or became shiny... But Zen Wear Stay is the only one that stays beautiful the whole time. Somehow, it actually starts looking even better than when I first applied it!! I honestly feel like I can just stick with this forever. It's also like a good-luck charm when I have plans where I probably won't get a chance to touch up my makeup (like going out for leisure activities). The texture is semi-matte. I chose the shade C15. It gives just the right amount of healthy color. I love this foundation so much, I feel like I'll keep repurchasing it forever!!

Perfect DiaryEssence Concealing UV Cushion FoundationThis is a cushion foundation with a shade I really like. There were only three shades, so it was easy to choose, and P01 gave me a nice, healthy flush and a beautiful finish. It's a glowy foundation. The coverage is decent. It can cover light dark spots. It's not completely transfer-proof, but I think it holds up pretty well. It tended to break up from dryness, so it might be good to use it with a highly moisturizing mist. This one also gives a perfectly beautiful finish, but personally, JUNG SAEM MOOL was the best. I feel like this one gives a slightly heavier finish. JUNG SAEM MOOL's shades are tricky, so I prefer the shade of this one though... *In the third photo, I'm comparing the cushions I own in the same price range. It's an easy-to-use cushion that gives a beautiful finish even if you apply it carelessly. It's so easy to use that I've repurchased it twice! I think it's a great value cushion foundation.

AlbionStudio Milk FoundationThe glow looks beautiful, and it gives natural coverage. After applying it, blending it in with a puff helped it adhere better to my skin and gave me a nicer finish. It might take a little trial and error to find the right combination. I felt that pairing it with a more moisturizing base helped it adhere better and wear off more evenly. Since it's a slightly moisturizing liquid foundation, if you use powder to finish, a lightweight, silky type seems to work better than a moisturizing one. With a moisturizing powder, I felt like it broke down a little more easily.

NamingLayered Fit Cushion SPF 50+It was supposed to be for dry skin, but on me it started separating around my nose and chin, and it didn't wear off very nicely. Right after applying it, my skin looked glowy, but as time passed, it inevitably broke down in the summer.

AlbionStudio Milk FoundationI recommend this for anyone who has things they want to conceal on their skin. I have oily skin with constant pores & acne issues💦 It's not red acne or anything, my skin is just bumpy and uneven. So I don't really like the glowy & bare-skin look you often get with the serum foundations that are popular right now... Plus, since I have oily skin with a lot of sebum, anything with a runny texture just slides right off. (lol) This Albion foundation has a pretty substantial texture. That doesn't mean it's hard to spread, and it's very easy to apply, so much so that applying it with your fingers is actually recommended. I put about half a pump on my fingers and spread it over my face, then tap it in with an &be sponge (dampened with water), and it provides plenty of coverage for pores and mild acne. It also holds up extremely well. On workdays I wear foundation for about 10 hours on average, and with everything I'd used before, by the time I left work my bare skin tone would be showing through completely, but with this one, I felt the coverage lasted just fine as long as I touched it up by patting on some powder. People with dry skin might not like this firmer texture. I think mixing in a serum might help. I don't really recommend it for anyone who likes a glowy, bare-skin look. It looks fairly close to bare skin for a matte foundation, but you definitely can't call it a natural skin finish. If anyone has the same skin type and concerns as me, this is a foundation I'd wholeheartedly recommend.

TirtirMask Fit Red CushionThis Tirtir product kept popping up on YouTube, so I decided to try it too, and the adherence is LEGENDARY and the coverage is good too, but I wouldn't recommend it if you have acne, and get a shade that's a little lighter! I got my usual shade, but it was way too dark for meee
-
Jung Saem MoolEssential Skin Nuder CushionI bought it because I saw a lot of celebrities using it, and it really lasts a long time! But it oxidizes a bit more than I expected, and I'm even more disappointed because I bought the wrong shade for me, but it's good for both oily and dry skin types^^ It's really great to use in the summer, so I recommend ittt

FweeAll Day Cover Black CushionThe cushion foundation everyone's talking about because it doesn't come off even in the sauna 🫧 It came in a Mega Sale set, so honestly it wasn't a foundation I was aiming for, but now it's one of my favorites 💘 This foundation in the black packaging has a semi-matte finish. I'm not a fan of matte finishes, but this has just the right semi-matte look with a bit of glow too 🙌 And I was amazed by how much coverage it has‼️ It makes your skin look beautiful without looking cakey ✨️ It doesn't break down easily, and I could even go without touching up until the evening 🌟 I'm a cool summer with normal to fair skin, and shade 21N was a good match for me 🤍

AMUSEAiry Pore Cover Cushion SPF50+ PA++++I have dry skin, but I wanted a soft matte finish for summer, so I looked up products people said were good on YouTube and Instagram, watching stuff like honest reviews, and after narrowing it down and narrowing it down, I ended up buying the AMUSE Airy Pore Cover Cushion SPF50+ PA++++. 1. Coverage -> Medium-high, I don't think there's much it can do about raised pimples or blemishes :( But it covered redness and pores really well, which I liked😘 2. Adherence -> I've seriously tried the white AMUSE cushion too, and the adherence is freaking amazing. As long as you prep your skin well, it pretty much never gets cakey, holy grail 3. Shade -> I'm a shade 19, and 0.5 Fair brightened my complexion just enough while still looking natural, which I liked. If you're a shade 19, I definitely recommend 0.5 Fair!! It lasts well and barely oxidized on me, so I recommend it as a summer cushion💙

TirtirMask Fit Crystal Mesh CushionI used to be a cushion nomad. The pores around my nose especially never got covered, and my skin always looked dry and flaky, but I happened to go to a Tirtir store during an event, tried it on my face, totally fell in love, and bought six of them! I’m fully committed now!! It gives the prettiest finish, and these days this is seriously all I carry around. My absolute fave!! I have dry skin, so my makeup always used to cake up, but this doesn’t! It gives me such a gorgeous dewy glow. Highly, highly recommend for dry skin!
-
Banila CoCovericious Ultimate White Cushion Air SPF50+ PA++++First off, the coverage is pretty strong. It evens out redness, dullness, acne scars, and pores all at once! On the other hand, it can look cakey really quickly if you pick up too much, so when using it all over your face, I recommend applying a small amount in a thin layer, then layering it only where needed. The finish leans semi-matte to matte. It adheres to the skin right after application and makes the surface look smooth, and as time passes, it seems to blend with your natural oils and develop a slight glow. It also doesn't settle into pores easily, so it doesn't break down much even after wearing it for a long time. It wears off relatively nicely too, and after many hours, the only area that bothers me a little is around the sides of my nose. I think it works especially well for combination and oily skin? Depending on the skincare and primer you pair it with, I think I could recommend it for dry skin too!

DiorForever Skin Wear Blurring Natural Matte FoundationNo glow. Decent coverage. Above all, it really stands up to sweat. It doesn't crease even when I wear a mask. That's what's amazing. This is a must when I'm wearing a mask. It makes my skin look even, which is really nice. When I use Dior Prestige primer, it does crease where my glasses sit on my nose, but barely any foundation transfers onto my mask. I have dry skin, but it doesn't feel drying, so I highly recommend it.

GivenchyPrisme Libre Glow Serum FoundationThe texture is soft and easy to spread! I think it has pretty good coverage, but it doesn't completely hide dark spots or redness, so I think I'll want to make sure to use concealer too. It's definitely moisturizing, so I like that it doesn't get dry and flaky even if I slack off a little on my pre-makeup skincare!

DiorForever Skin Glow Hydrating Foundation SPF 15It’s been reformulated, but I preferred this version! The old version had better coverage! I love it because it lasts well and doesn’t dry out my skin!

DiorForever Skin Wear Blurring Natural Matte FoundationThis is my holy grail! I'll repurchase this forever! It has a little less coverage than the old version, but it feels more moisturizing! It gives proper coverage, and I've never found another foundation that stays put this well! It's a glowy type, but it also has a slightly matte feel! It sets quickly, so the trick is to apply a little at a time!
