Assalamualaikum & hello Cloudees!
I have been using my Laneige cushion for quite a while now, so I think it was time for me to grab my hands on new cushion foundation. After making comparison between few cushions, I decided to grab the Clio Kill Cover Mesh Glow since the review is quite tempting, especially for people with dry skin like me.
I initially want the Clio Kill Cover Funwear Cushion because, well, CAT PAWS! That was the CUTEST cushion I've ever seen and the peachy brown color + the transparent packaging is just too pretty (plus, yes, i am obsessed with cats kekeke). But sadly, Clio states that it's best for normal skin and you will be satisfied unless you have extremely dry or extremely oily skin. Ngl, my skin is very dry so I decided to ditch that choice 😿

|| CLIO BRAND
This brand almost needs no introduction as it is well known worldwide. Clio is a brand from South Korea that was founded on 1993, famous for their eye and lip-based products. This brand was the first color makeup brand in South Korea and since it only sells makeup, it's no surprise that this is the first time I ever get my hands on their products. I rarely wear makeup except for foundation and as much as I wanna try their eyeliner and eyeshadow, I'm afraid they're on the pricier side, especially with the movement of KRW and MYR nowadays *cries in currency*.

|| CLIO KILL COVER MESH GLOW CUSHION
Unlike other cushion which comes with spongefull of foundation, Clio Mesh Glow Cushion comes with mesh and viscous, creamy foundation underneath. The mesh functions as filters to the foundation so that no clumps picked when applied to your skin, plus it's so soft.

Using pink as the color of it's packaging, this cushion comes in 3 light shades - 02 Lingerie, 03 Linen and 04 Ginger. It's quite sad that these are the only shades available, and I am just lucky enough that the darkest shade available is my shade. If you used other K-cushions before, 24N code is the same shade as this 04 Ginger.
This cushion also comes in 2 sizes - Mini (5g) and Full size (15g). I usually get my hands on the tester / trial size first but since this brand is quite famous and I found lots convincing of reviews on it, I decided to just go with the full size instead. Aaand, the full-sized ones are on sale so it's cheaper than the mini ones.

|| TEXTURE & HOW TO USE
Exactly as the product claims, the texture of this foundation is very light and only a very thin layer is needed for my skin to look healthy and covered. I actually don't have much blemishes to cover at the first place but my dark circles are horrible. I still need concealer to cover it best, but this cushion covers it quite well for daily use.
With the sponge, tap it gently onto the mesh and apply it on your face. When I say "gently", I mean, really, really, gentle. The mesh is soooo soft and a gentle tap is all you need to get the product on the sponge. You can also swipe the sponge gently on the mesh instead of tapping it, but again, keep in mind to do it gently.
Just like other foundation, use this after your last skincare steps.
|| MY REVIEW
The first thing that comes to my mind when I unbox the foundation is that case is so stunning! I know how it looks like as I've seen it countless times in pictures and videos but it's really pretty and mind you, I'm not even a pink girlie! Even my husband agrees that it's the most beautiful cushion casing he ever saw me have.
I have been using this cushion since end of July, and I bought this with my own money, thus my opinion is my own and not sponsored. My skin is a dry type, so here are my reviews:
Pros:
🍨 Packaging is sleek and stunning
🍨 Lightweight
🍨 A thin layer is all needed for my skin
🍨 Medium coverage but buildable
🍨 Last longer (even better than Laneige Neo cushion, in my opinion)
🍨 Buildable
🍨 Easy to apply
🍨 Not cakey
🍨 Very moisturizing
🍨 Makes my skin glow
🍨 Love the waterdrop-shaped puff as it really makes it easy for me to apply the foundation especially around the eyes
🍨 Very light scent that surprisingly does not bother me
Cons:
🍥 Only comes in 3 shades
🍥 Though I love the shape of the puff, it's still the standard air puff and can't beat Laneige Neo's puff.
Price & where to grab?
Price: RM165.00 for 1 cushion + 1 refill
As usual, get yours during sale and you can save a lot!
You can grab them on Clio official Shopee or Wooh website. I got mine from MJ.Seoul Shopee, and I love their service! (i even got extra puff from them!)
I am looking forward to try more products from Clio so hopefully they have massive sale or MYR currency gets better or perhaps maybe they send me PR package ke kan *laughs in influencer influenza*.
Till then,
Thanks for reading!
