If you’re ever in search for makeup or skincare products that actually work, one really great site to find good recommendations (other than us, of course!), is Reddit. After all, Reddit is a go-to source for many us, and we like to think we can trust our fellow makeup and skincare fans. So when we were on the lookout for new summer foundations that give you that natural, my skin but better look, we were happy to come across a thread on cushion foundations that don’t disappoint.
MISSHA’s Magic Cushion Foundation is creamy, nourishing, and offers customizable coverage that won’t make you look too done up or “cakey.” Instead, it was made to leave you with dewy, radiant-looking skin for hours. It contains good-for-your-skin ingredients such as bamboo water and baobab tree fruit, which can help moisturize the skin. It’s also formulated with witch hazel to help smooth and calm irritation, making it a great option for those with sensitive skin. Since it’s a cushion foundation, it comes in a compact along with a sponge applicator, making it easy to apply when you’re on-the-go or in a rush.
Given everything the foundation promises to do (as well as the ingredients used to make it), it’s no woner why it’s become a favorite among Redditors and Amazon shoppers. In fact, the MISSHA Magic Cushion Foundation has over 7,000 five-star reviews on Amazon with many praising it for the way it makes their skin look. As one recent “skeptical” shopper wrote, “I’m super picky about my makeup because I hate the feeling of having foundation on my skin. This literally feels like lotion. It goes on smooth, sets into your skin quickly, and looks natural.” They also went to say this hasn’t broken their skin out or left it feeling irritated event after all day use.

Another shopper who claimed to love the foundation so much said it’s replaced their previous faves from Laura Mercier, Estée Lauder, and Tarte (which is a pretty big deal considering how iconic these foundations are!). “Lightweight but gives that extra coverage and smells divine too. which is a plus,” they wrote. “I am on my third purchase and I pray they don’t change the formula. I have super sensitive skin and breakout easily, and this doesn’t break me out. I’m obsessed.”
One reviewer in their 60s quickly became a fan after seeing how much their skin transformed. “My daughter was showing my some of her new Korean makeup and mentioned this one was too moisturizing for her skin. We have a similar skin tone and she tried it on me after I mentioned it would probably be exactly what my dry skin needed. Coverage is fabo. It’s buildable, dewy, and helps my skin look brighter. Able to cover the age/sun spots around the outsides of my eyes/upper cheekbone area without much product. Evens my skin tone and adds a bit of a dewy look. I went out and bought my own, I love it so much.”
Lastly, one Amazon shopper said the MISSHA Magic Cushion Foundation really lives up to its name. “What is this sorcery? You all NEED to try this stuff … It’s so sheer but looks full coverage and feels light weight. I wore it to a hot music festival and it stayed on all day, did not need to touch it up again and my skin looked amazing. I typically have some redness and freckles I like to cover, and this did a great job with out looking cakey at all. Try this! You will not be upset. I did a gasp when I first put it on.”
The MISSHA Magic Cushion Foundation is available on Amazon for around $13 to $15 depending on the shade of your choice. If you want to see what kind of “magic” this can do for your skin, be sure to snag one today.
