April Skin Magic Snow Cushion is a popular beauty product that is designed to provide a flawless and radiant complexion. It is a cushion foundation that is packaged in a compact form and is known for its high coverage and long-lasting formula. This product has gained popularity among beauty enthusiasts for its ability to conceal imperfections and deliver a natural-looking finish. One of the key features of the April Skin Magic Snow Cushion is its lightweight texture. It feels comfortable on the skin and does not feel heavy or cakey. This makes it suitable for everyday use and makes it easy to build up coverage if desired.
Step 1. Apply after skincare routine.
Step 2. Gently press cushion foundation with included puff.
Step 3. Pat onto face and smooth out to blend.
Step 4. Build to desired coverage level.
Magic Snow Cushion uses micro multi-cover powder that combines ALUMINA powder with excellent transparency, which has a refractive index similar to that of the skin, and TIO2 powder with excellent coverage, to arrange diffused light from the skin to express clear skin. In terms of oil control, maybe it depends on individual eg the primer you use , or if you stay in air-condition room most of the time but i would say that 2.
This makes it suitable for everyday use and makes it easy to build up coverage if desired. The cushion format also makes it convenient to apply and allows for quick touch-ups throughout the day. The Magic Snow Cushion is also known for its high coverage.
April Skin Review Part 1 - Magic Snow Cushion White & Black
Back again with another review, and this time it's the review of April Skin's products - Magic Snow Cushion (both black and white), as well as Magic Honey Tint and Magic Oil Tint. Since It's quite long, I decided to divide this into 2 parts.
You can read more about the Lip Tints on the second part here. For now, let's focus on the two cushion foundation :)
White = Moisture // Black = CoverageThe main difference between white and black is basically the finish, coverage level, and moisture content. White is targeted for dry skin with 60% water-based serum, while Black is for Oily & Combination Skin with silkier finish and higher coverage.
Both of the cushions come in 3 shades: #21 Light Beige, #22 Pink Beige, #23 Natural Beige. I got mine in the shade #21 for the white snow cushion and shade #22 for the black snow cushion. Down below you can see the difference between the two.
Shade 21 is very pale and while both of them have pink beige undertone, Shade 21 is more neutral than the pinkish 22. It might not be a concern for most people since a lot of BB creams do have pinkish undertone, but for me it is a minus point since I have extremely yellow skin. I prefer #21 a lot more than the #22 for this reason, even though it is kinda too light for my skin.
Magic Snow Cushion White has a pretty glowy finish, perfect if you have dry skin or love the Korean dewy look. Magic Snow Cushion Black on the other hand, gives a subtle inner glow effect on the skin and provides more coverage for troubled skin. I honestly can't decide which of the two is better. I love them both equally. I love the fact that they are moisturizing on the skin and does not accentuate dry patches.
Since White is a lot more moisturizing, it is not as long lasting as the Black version. You skin gets oily quicker with the Magic Snow Cushion White on. Black cushion gives a more powdery finish which absorbs excess oil on the skin. You can see the different finish of the two on my skin down below.
COVERAGE TEST
Coverage wise, I think both are amazing. I didn't pat on a lot of layer for the swatches above, it was only a few light taps and it'll be all you need. You might need a little bit more product with the Magic Snow Cushion White to fully cover imperfections on the skin. If coverage is your main concern, then I suggest to go with the Black version.
I even ditched my concealer when I had these on, like it was no longer needed. It brightens my whole complexion, even dark circles, and covers all imperfections. Here's a picture to give you a clearer idea.
I applied Magic Snow Cushion White lightly only on half of my face, nothing else. Here are more selfies with better focus so you can see the flawless and dewy finish it gives. I didn't use any concealer, just a cushion primer beforehand for a smoother skin finish. What do you think?

Reviews for "April Skin Magic Snow Cushion: The Ultimate Summer Beauty Essential"
1. Emily - 2/5 stars - I was really disappointed with the April skin magic snow cushion foundation. I had heard so many great things about it, but it just didn't work for me. The shade range was limited, and the one I chose ended up being too light for my skin tone. Additionally, the coverage was very sheer and it didn't hide my blemishes or redness at all. I also found that it emphasized dry patches on my skin and didn't last very long throughout the day. Overall, it didn't live up to the hype for me.
2. Ryan - 1/5 stars - The April skin magic snow cushion foundation was a complete waste of money for me. The shade range was terrible, and I couldn't find a match for my medium skin tone. Even if I had found a shade, the coverage was so minimal that it wouldn't have made a difference. It barely covered my minor imperfections and didn't provide any sort of lasting power. I also found that it oxidized throughout the day, leaving me with an unnatural and uneven finish. I regret purchasing this product and would not recommend it to anyone.
3. Sarah - 3/5 stars - I had high hopes for the April skin magic snow cushion foundation, but it fell short for me. While the shade matched my skin tone well, the coverage was not as full as I expected. It did a decent job of evening out my skin tone, but it didn't hide my dark spots or redness completely. I also found that the formula felt quite heavy on my skin and didn't blend easily. Additionally, it didn't control oiliness well and started to fade and break apart after a few hours of wear. Overall, it was an average product that didn't deliver the results I was looking for.
