Product:
L'Oreal True Match Lumi Cushion is a sheer to light medium coverage foundation that goes one smoothly and dries to a demi-matte finish one the skin.

Missha M Magic Cushion Moisture SPF50+/PA+++ is a light the medium build-able coverage foundation with a satin-matte finish. The coverage is good while not looking heavy on the skin.
The original Missha M Magic Cushion has that more demi-matte finish on the skin in comparison.

Colour:
L'Oreal True Match Lumi Cushion in W2 Light Ivory is a warm light beige with a slight yellow/Orange undertone. This shade however is darker than the original L'Oreal True Match in W2. I have a swatch of L'Oreal True Match in W1 for comparison but W2 lines between those shades.

Missha M Magic Cushion Moisture SPF50+/PA+++ in No.21 Light Beige is a neutral light beige with a slight peach/olive undertone.

Wear: Both lasts about lasts 8 hours their own.

Packaging:
 L'Oreal True Match Lumi Cushion and Missha M Magic Cushion Moisture SPF50+/PA+++.
Both brands have a sticker label to seal the product in before use. Now after you open the seal I don't know of long of a shelf life it has for moister lose.

Comapring the makeup puff applicators the L'Oreal and Missha one has the same backing fabric. The L'Oreal cells are slight more open celled compared to the Missha version. Now i found the Missha one has and almost rubber feel to the puff which allows the product to bounce/splay on the skin more evenly. Also easier to wash.

The L'Oreal True Match Lumi Cushion is a solid compact construction with a hing opening to the inner well of product.

The Missha M Magic Cushion is a real forward thinker as their packaging is reusable. The compact is loadable ring that houses the air tight closure with the product sponge.

The Magic Cushion Case retails for $18CAN on it own if you want to make your own travel compact filled with whatever face liquid product you want; Including other BB creams.

The applicator sponge (makeup puff) is called the Air In Puff and retail for $2.50US for a single replacement. 

Now if you run out of product they sell Magic Cushion Case Replacement Sponge a 2 pack for $2US, You can remove the current sponge in the air tight closure and wash the closure out, replace with a new sponge and pour your new product into the well. You can also pour the product first into the closure well than pop on the sponge.

Now they also sell refill product with UV Cushion Base for $5US with two 7g each of the Magic Cushion base in the two shade 21 and 23 they currently offer.

Winner:
Missha M Magic Cushion has even coverage to make it worth applying for me. Also the shades are more universal but sheer enough to work for more than I skin tone/undertone in the fair to light range. Now it's a shame they don't expand on the shade range as they usually have 5 shades in the matching BB lines which runs ultra fair the medium skin tones. I think they made their 2 most popular shades.

    1. Let me know how you are reading this, there are no black backgrounds in my posts anymore.

      Is it on mobile or a computer? The page I've notice if you have a slow connection can takes awhile to load all the element from blogger.
