Laneige BB Cushion Pore Control



With all the craze of the new BB cushions. I decided to try this out. The exact launch date of Laneige BB cushion was on May 1st.  So it hasn't been in he market long.

Laneige has released three different types of their BB Cushion so far.
In chronological order of release date we have the:
- Laneige Snow BB Soothing Cushion (Discontinued) 
- Laneige BB Cushion Pore Control

I haven't tried the other two yet, but the pore control BB cushion has a
*Matte finish, higher coverage, pore controlling element and long lasting property (better for oily skin).

My first impression
FREAKING AWESOME!!! From the coverage to the consistency etc. I love that it's SPF 50 too ^^ Pretty sweet!! :)
Color range
The only available colors in Korea is from brightest to darkest, 13, 14, and 21 Natural Beige (which I bought). I'm not sure if they will come out with more shade selections but I would hope and assume so).

I bought this in #21 and it is sadly a bit light for my NC25 skin. HOWEVER! If you are NC20 you can pull this off, I can't wait till winter to wear it around.

Consistency
The interesting thing is that it has a cooling sensation. It refreshing on your skin (but the cooling feeling doesn't stays on for awhile, about 5 seconds or so). It's not necessarily light weight but it totally depends on whether you're using a light hand or not. If you layer it on or use more than what would be necessary, then it really felt heavy and uncomfortable on the skin. So a sheer layer to the face would make it feel light and weightless. 
Coverage
Medium to high. It's definitely buildable but I don't want to recommend you to layer on more. There's a possibility of getting into fine lines or being caked up when it's applied more than twice layers. But a single layer provides you just enough coverage that gets you satisfied. I suggest you incorporate with a concealer if needed.
Plus it's summer so why do we want to add layers to our face?

How long does it stay?
It's pretty long lasting that I've noticed. It doesn't become cakey as far as I noticed either. But tt's summer and I haven't experienced any 100F degree weather so we will see.
