Today I will be reviewing the very popular Etude House Precious Mineral Any Cushion! It is SPF50 /PA & weighs 15g, it retails for USD$18.94 on Cosmetic-Love, USD$19.80 on BeautyNetKorea and SGD$32.00 in Singapore.

Absolutely in love with the simple, classy design of the compact. It's sturdy, does not feel heavy and is really easy to use!
This is my very first BB cushion that I've tried.

Formula
Does not feel oily when applied, does not cling to dry patches but will accentuate drier areas. Coverage is light, but buildable.
The air puff that came with the cushion was very thin, but bouncy. I gotta admit, when I first saw the air puff I was a little skeptical of it. But wow the puff applies the bb cushion on my skin similar to a airbrushed finish! 100% does not dry matte, it dries to a lovely satin finish.

Updates throughout the day
10:00AM SGT -- It's been about 2 hours since I've applied the cushion and I do not feel oily at all. Looks really natural and gives off a dewy glow.
12:30PM SGT -- 4 hours update, under fluorescent lights. A touch more dewiness here, but still looking pretty good I must say! BB worn off a bit around my lips because I had breakfast. Will be going out to buy lunch so will update back here again.
2:53PM SGT -- Back from lunch! Starting to feel a little oily (because of Singapore's 32C weather) but it doesn't look oily at all. Overall my face looks decent!
6:43PM SGT -- Phew, total of 10 hours has since passed!! Final picture update I've misted my face with the Etude House I'm Blooming Mist and blotted with a tissue paper, no signs of transfer at all but felt a little less oilier. The look has definitely began to a lot more dewy than previously. My blush has faded a little but you still can tell it's on there. Final thoughts - oil control is so-so, lasting power is not too bad!
Face without makeup
Dior 020, Chanel B20, MUFE 127 (a tad light), Bobbi Brown Sand
Normal/ Combination skin - dry around lips & oily around cheeks/ forehead
I generally do not have any issues other than a few discolouration bits, huge pores and erm weird holes.
I am using the shade N02.

Conclusion
Is it worth it? Yes it is!!!! Give it a try if the shades are suitable. If you're looking for a fuss-free base application, THIS BB cushion is it!!
