Parnell Cicamanu Serum Cushion - Moisturizing Foundation for Soothing, Coverage, Glass Skin and Lightweight for Sensitive and Dry Skin Pearl Skin (0.52 Fl Oz) (23N)

Best cushion foundation I have used to date. Does not make my skin feel dry, nor does it become cracked/cakey after application. I apply with beauty sponge in morning and it stays smooth all day with easy compact poof touch ups if needed. First cushion I have used with cica and it feels like nothing is there - absolutely no skin irritation for me. Love the wide range of shades available - I chose 23N. Will definitely be buying again and am looking for the liquid foundation version now - hopefully it will be available on amazon soon, but am not averse to buying direct from S.Korea. Very good product for me.

No need for a primer because it goes on perfectly. I don't use anything else except this BB cream. It makes my skin look flawless. It does not cake up at all. It stays on all day til you wash it off.

The cushions foundation is great and perfect shade and easy to use but the only thing it doesn’t cover 💯 acne marks or freckles. I gave it 4.8/5

I bought 13n and 13c and they are both a little too light for me. After powder, they warm up and match me so I can wear them alright afterwards. Between the two, I prefer 13n over 13c, but they really don’t look too different from each other once blended out. My best match is 0N1 in Double Wear and my undertone is neutral. I’m fair, but have a touch of warmth in my skin. Formula wise, it’s nothing to go nuts about, but I’ve been liking it especially now that I’m having skin issues. I was diagnosed with follicular dermatitis and have all the signs of a damaged skin barrier: sensitive dry flakey skin, breakouts, redness, etc... I’m getting treatment, but that dries my skin out even more. I’ve needed to wear makeup for events lately and this has been clutch. It doesn’t make my face itch or cause my skin to get worse. The coverage is also good, so it doesn’t look like there’s anything wrong with my skin. On its own, it doesn’t hold up super well and it’s too shiny for my liking, but with powder and a heavy duty setting spray, it can last through the whole day. I think I’d only repurchase this is I was desperate for something to use while having skin issues again. I like my two favorite foundations better, and I just don’t think the packaging is very practical for me. The product dries out fast and gets more difficult to get out of the sponge as you continue to use it. It’s also incredibly pricey in terms of grams per dollar. I was glad to have it while my skin was messed up, but I don’t love it enough for it to top my favorites. (Not wearing any other products in the photos. 13n is on the right side of my face and 13c is on the left….I can’t really see the difference though.)

Finally, like 10 years after it went viral, I got around to trying a serum cushion foundation. I *usually* dislike foundation and just use BB cream, but this serum cushion is so lightweight and hydrating, even my sensitive combo skin likes it! Parnell includes a high quality applicator sponge, it worked well for this reel and is great for touch ups on the go, but I also like to blend out this gentle hydrating serum foundation with a brush for a more natural look. This Cicamanu Serum Cushion foundation is easy to apply, and you only need a tiny amount for light to mid coverage. Bonus, the active ingredients in the serum leave my skin feeling soft and hydrated.

so i got two different colors, warm sand and cool rose and both weren’t my color. that’s my bad. but i put it on just to see what it looks on my skin. and even with setting spray, putting my serum and cream on and everything, it looks cakey. in the picture, the cakeyness is suttle but it really pops out in person or if i had a better camera. if you have a way to get rid of cakey foundation with every type of foundation, then get it. but if not and you’re getting this BECAUSE you have cakey foundation. then don’t get this product. it sucks it’s expensive too because it just don’t be working well. it feels wet and moist when you apply it but when it’s on, it makes my skin look dry. it hides red spots easier that’s why i give it 2 stars but i care to have more of a smoother look to my makeup then hiding my red acne spots completely but having messy skin. actually wait no i just reapplied my foundation and power with my serum and cream and added more to it and now my red patches are gone and doesn’t look cakey. so yeah this product isn’t good. please i am trying to save you from wasting your money and time 🙏

One of the best purchases I had, I really like that this cushion has great skin care inside so it doesn’t dry my skin it hydrates the color is a little bit brighter for me, but I got one level darker and that was a little bit too darker so I’m still looking for my perfect color match I also like that it has glassy finish even though I have oily skin and I don’t like when my skin is too shiny. This foundation makes my skin healthy glassy looking.

I’m a redhead, and usually pale foundations are chalky and too yellow. This one is perfect, actually pale enough, smooth, and soo lightweight. Feels like I’m wearing nothing but a light moisturizer.

Overraitted, wont even mirage into your skin

Me encantó la base, se siente súper cómoda y al principio dude un poco en el tono pero me quedo perfecto. Sí no te gustan las bases que tiene efecto luminoso, no es para ti
