Our take on the Yves Saint Laurent Skin Affair Soft Glow Cushion Foundation Medium Cool

A liquid foundation in a refillable cushion compact that gives a sheer-to-medium, dewy glow. Squalane and glycerin keep it moisturizing, and it is paraben-free and non-comedogenic. It suits dry and normal skin and anyone who wants a quick, buildable finish on the go. Against matte liquid foundations it offers less coverage and shine control, but more hydration and easier touch-ups.

Questions and answers

Is this foundation good for oily skin?
Not really. It is a hydrating, dewy formula, and oily-skin users report shine and fading within a few hours. A mattifying primer or setting powder helps, but a matte foundation suits oily skin better.
How much coverage does it give?
Sheer to medium. One layer evens tone and adds glow; a second layer builds a little more. It won't fully cover blemishes, dark spots or redness.
Is it non-comedogenic?
Yes, the formula is labeled non-comedogenic and paraben-free. It contains squalane, which is generally well tolerated, but patch-test if you are acne-prone.
Can I buy refills instead of a new compact?
The compact is designed to be refillable, so you can replace the cushion insert rather than the whole case. Check that the refill matches this shade and formula.
What is in the box?
One cushion compact with the foundation-soaked cushion, a mirror and an applicator puff. The compact holds 0.5 fl oz.
How does it compare with a classic liquid foundation?
It is lighter and more hydrating, with a dewier finish and easier touch-ups. A standard liquid foundation usually gives more coverage and longer wear.
