  Hera UV Mist Cushion Nude in #23 ♥
_
Hello everyone!
I'm back with another review of the Hera UV Mist Cushion Nude in shade 23. I got this cushion from antcosmall.com in exchange for a review, nevertheless my opinion will be 100% my own! Do check out antcosmall.com though they have great deals (especially for sheet masks guys!) and free shipping worlwide!

I was already super excited for this cushion because I wanted to try it out for SO long but was always too stingy to get buy it with my own money haha. I heard korean idols use this cushion too so my expectations were pretty high.


They sent me this cushion "set"which includes:
- a cushion case with a refill (15g)
- one extra refill (15g)


Shipping from antcosmall.com was fast (~11 days from South Korea to Germany) and I'm very happy with it, they even sent me gummi bears as a gift which is so sweet & thoughtful, thank you very much!


This is what the cushion case looks like:
I love the white/lilac design omg


I got this cushion in the shade 23 
(I'm a NC25 and the shade was a perfect match!)

 There's a small mirror on the inside for on-the-go application
and a cushion sponge


You should close the lid tightely after each usage to prevent the hera cushion from drying out fast.
You can also throw out this sticker after your first usage.

The sponge is like a regular cushion sponge but I somehow feel like I run out of this cushion so much faster than with my other cushions or maybe I just used more of this one. I start to run out of it after a month

The cushion sponge is blue on the other side and looks like a regular cushion sponge. The sponge is a little more dense and stiffer than Missha and Etude House cushion sponges. I personally prefer this one much over the other sponges because I feel like they make my base makeup application much easier and more even than those super soft sponges.


Here's the coverage test of the Hera UV Mist Cushion Nude:
It seems like the coverage is pretty light. It will even out your skin tone but won't cover up scars, hyperpigmentations or rednesses completely. If you have many skin problem I wouldn't recommend this cushion.


Hera UV Mist Cushion Nude swatches on my face:
 The finish looks SO natural and slightly dewy/glowy imo. It didn't highlight my dry cheeks at all and feels very moisturizing and light on my combination-dry skin. The finish looks like you would have sprayed mist all over your face, just like the name haha.


It does a decent job at covering up my pores and canceling out uneven skintones. Look how natural and skin-like it looks omg. It does highlight chapped, flaky skin patches though. I had some problems with it on my chin, it seems like this cushion isn't suitable for uneven skin texture.


So you definitely need to exfoliate regulary to wear this cushion but I honestly think that this cushion already does a great job at moisturizing and not highlighting dry skin. The Missha Magic cushion and A'Pieu Air Fit cushion even highlighted the dry skin on my cheeks but this one doesn't do this, I think the Hera cushion is already pretty good in that aspect.

The staying power isn't that great though. I started to look a little shiny/ oily after 4 hours, especially on my oily areas. You can definitely fix this with a touch up or a little powder but this is something to keep in mind if you have oily skin!


My Personal Rating
 
I LOVE this cushion and it's the best cushion I have tried so far for winter. It's really nice for dry skin and looks super natural. I think people with dry skin and not many skin problems will love this cushion because of its natural finish and moisturizing feeling. I would stay away from this cushion if you have oily skin or major skin problems because it won't look very flattering on these skin types.

If you're interested in the Hera UV Mist Cushion, you can get it on antcosmall.com for $33.44 here!

  Antcosmall PR Haul ♥ (+ Introduction)
_
Hello everyone!

Today I would like to introduce a new online shop I have recently collaborated with. I received this very thoughtful and generous packet from antcosmall.com yesterday. I chatted with them for some time on Instagram (@antcosmall) and have to say that they're super kind and sweet!I really enjoyed this collaboration! First off, I would like to introduce Antcos~



Antcosmall.com is an online shop that sells korean skincare & makeup. They ship directly from South Korea and offer FREE international shipping (they also have a tracking option for 2.50$ or EMS). They offer free EMS shipping on all orders above USD$150.

I really do recommend checking them out because some of their products are cheaper than on other korean cosmetic websites such as jolse and bbcosmetic +free shipping worldwide (I hate paying a lot for shipping ><). They also have this event going on where you will get 10% off on your order if you sign up which would make everything even cheaper.

They currently have a huge mask pack sale going on right where 10 sheet masks only cost USD$10! That's super cheap (considering that they're selling big brands such as MediHeal, Leaders, Adaline,...). The same sheet masks costs more than double as much as on other korean cosmetic online shops, so 

I highly, highly recommend antcosmall.com for sheet mask hauling!


 Here's what I'm talking about:




Please check them out, I think they have some great deals! They also used to carry Papa's recipe but they recently removed them from their website which is such a pity

They were super generous and send me so many products to review:



The packet was sent by korean airmail and took about 2 weeks to arrive which is average for me. One thing I have to notice though is that they didn't mark my packet with a lower value so you should be careful in case your country has high custom taxes!

Product they send me:
♡ VT Collagen Pact (23.50$) link
♡ Banila Co. CC Cream (15.30$) link
♡ HERA UV Mist Cushion (33.44$) link
♡ 3x Adaline Mask link
♡ Jelly/ Gummibears

They were so cute and also send me some gummibears ;-; That's so so sweet, I love them so much!!
