Review: A'PIEU x Garfield Air Fit Cushion SPF50/PA+++
As some of you have known
and read on my blog, I don’t dig cushion. I never really wrote it explicitly
here but I HATE CUSHION. There I said it finally after holding my tongue back
for years. You can probably tell because I never really bought any cushion but
yep I received one from Laneige from their last event and started to love the ‘spongy compact base makeup’. And kudos
to Korean brands, thank you for always releasing limited edition cushions every
season and this summer I really lost my mind, heart, (and money ofc to buy it
lol) to this cushion.
Simply just because it’s
cute.
And cheap. Well I cannot
lie I am still a cheapskate when it comes to trying cute things that I actually
dislike at the first place.
Where to Buy?

Anyway this one I get is
a limited edition release for Summer 2015, so if you really dig it you better
hurry grab it! It’s a real struggle to get limited edition cushions, so that’s
why I’m reviewing it now so that you guys can quickly grab it once you see it
on store!
The packaging is SO CUTE.
Compared to the original case (as seen in description box above), this Garfield
case is totally irresistible. It still keeps the sky blue color theme though by
using it as the main color of the box packaging.
And here is the cushion
case! It has the same design and illustration as its box. That lazy Garfield lies
on clouds with his sexy eyes, waiting for you to grab him. This compact case is
made of plastic, but what comes in my surprise is that it feels really sturdy!
When you shut the lid back it clicks perfectly and closes tight (actually this
feels sturdier than Laneige’s Snow BB Cushion’s case). Good to know A’Pieu
still pays much attention to the packaging, as many cheap products usually
leave the packaging horrible and only care about the product inside.
As this comes in a
compact form, the case holds a big mirror behind the lid and a white plastic
separator which also works to keep the air puff. The separator closes tight too
with *click* sound and it feels great! The air puff is just like any air puff
out there with blue surface underneath. It feels so soft too and again, not
looking/feeling cheap at all. Honestly it’s far better than Laneige’s air puff
(seriously, Laneige?) but no comparison post here, will leave it alone until my
next post lol~
Now I’m going to rave a
lot. Seriously girls, I will be raving screaming and jumping a lot start from
now on.
I got this in shade #21,
usually I am NC20-25 in MAC. Is it a perfect match for me? Will not talk too
much, and let’s just see the inner arm swatch below:
IT DISAPPEARS INTO MY
SKIN. WITH AN EASE.
Okay, capslock off. Shade
#21 is actually a bit lighter when I applied it to my face but guess what, it doesn’t make my face look ghastly/ashy
at all! It has nice yellow undertone which usually most Korean BB cream
lacks of. So, people with yellow skin, you know what to get now right?
Formula wise, it’s very lightweight and blends easily into
your skin. Coverage is light to medium. It has a quite strong floral scent –
which I actually find out lovely tbh – and lingers not longer than 15 seconds
after application. The finish is AWESOME: it doesn’t dry completely into a
matte powdery finish instead of leaving a
beautiful natural finish with nice glow/shine. It’s not an oil-shine btw,
and not overly dewy like if you’re just frying a tempura and your face serves
as a pan. Nope, nope. Seriously I can say it’s creating a healthy, bright looking skin and leaves no trace of
complexion makeup behind, just…a healthy skin like those girls in makeup
ads!
Don’t believe me? Let the picture speaks, then:
It stays on 6 hours and I
only blot twice during the wear. Fading
is minimal, my redness doesn’t peek through but you can see some raging
zits start to be visible – I find it normal since I didn’t set it with powder
at the first place and don’t touch up during the day. And seriously when I blot…
my face would still looking a little bit shiny (glowy you may call) even after the
blotting session. Proof that the glow wasn’t caused by sebum?! Is this some
kind of magic or what…? Not much sebum seen on the blotting paper also!
And the most important
point to highlight is:
THIS CAUSE ME NO BREAKOUT.
*fireworks on the
background*
How-yeaaaah! Holy grail
alert!
Last
Words?
A’PIEU
Air Fit Cushion SPF50/PA+++ is possibly my new holy grail for base makeup with
high SPF content. It’s very rare that BB cream actually works on my skin, but
this one proves its quality to me flawlessly! Even though it’s very cheap but
it really holds a great product inside the sturdy packaging. This cushion will
suit people with dry-combination skin best, maybe a little powder would be
needed to set the product on T-zone area. It has great natural finish with
beautiful glow – and not oil, again I’d say – which stays quite a decent time
on skin before you really feel the need of touching up. Love, love, love. Overall I love this product!
***
So!
What do you think about this product girls? I do think I should really take the
words I said earlier about cushion…I really find myself digging for it now. And
I would love to get more recommendations from you about great cushion for
dry-combination skin out there. Oh, oh, don’t forget to drop some love in the
comment box below okay?
Ciao
for now and happy Sunday everyone! ♥ xo

I've been really into cushions lately. Right now I use a Too Cool For School, but I can easily say that I'd buy that one just for Garfield.... Sad, right? Garfield was my favorite as a child.

ReplyDeletethe dinoplatz one? well this one is worth it IMHO so yeah...at least when u finished this one out, you can always get the refill - but the grumpy cat stays with you still right ~ :3 go go buy it!
ReplyDeleteThat's the one! I love that it has everything all in one box, except eye makeup and mascara.
ReplyDeleteI'm definitely going to get this one later in the month. Once a month I have a "treat yourself" mini-shopping spree, and Garfield is on the list now <3

I've been really interested in trying this product. Seeing this review makes me want to buy this. I live in Indonesia by the way, can you tell me which online shop that sell this for 100k IDR? I can't seem to find it because I've asked 2 online shops and they sell it for 150k IDR. It would be better if I can find cheaper price though. Thanks for your help^^
