Upon application, the cushion is super saturated in the foundation and a little goes along way on the brush. The concept behind cushion foundations is quite simple, its a sponge/cushion that is filled with liquid.

L'Oreal's new compact, discover liquid foundation revolutionised with Nude Magique Cushion Foundation. It looks a lot less dense and the pores are bigger which is why more of the liquid foundation tends to sit on the surface of the cushion when you first use it, rather than be absorbed within it.

Cushions have been the trend for a good few years now in South Korea (where they were invented), and foreign brands have been catching on to the hype since the end of last year, as they start to release their own cushion foundations to bring to the Western market.

I applied this using the Real Techniques Buffing Brush instead of the puff, as I'm more used to applying face products with a damp sponge or brush.
