CELGEN MILD SUN SPF50+ / PA+++

CELGEN MILD SUN SPF50+,  PA+++  is a silky sunscreen that fills the surface of the skin smoothly without leaving behind a white cast. In addition, the soft, creamy texture helps you to spread it on your face without any irritations or stickiness whatsoever. What sets it apart is its Energy Water with uniform micro-cluster, which delivers the effective components of various vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and proteins more effectively in mild sunlight.

In addition to a 50/50 split of organic and inorganic UVA and UVB blocking ingredients, green tea leaf extract is included as an antioxidant, skin-soothing, and anti-aging additive. Oryza sativa (rice) bran extract, which works as an antioxidant and provides Vitamin E, is also present in the formula. Be aware there are also five different parabens in this formula, which I know can be a deal-breaker.

In practice, I found that the formula isn’t oily or prone to separation, and it spreads easily and evenly so only a little’s needed. Once rubbed in, it looks a little glossy, but settles into a barely-there matte sheen after some time.

The instructions state to use it above makeup, but I prefer applying to skin prior to makeup and after my skincare, but it says you can carefully tap and spread on top of your finished look. As indicated, there is no white cast or cloudiness leftover, and it seems to last quite a long time in the sunny & 85 degree days we’ve had here recently.

Celgen claims it will not be erased by sweat or water (while not explicitly stating it’s waterproof), and it seems to stay on rather well. Furthermore, it has the usual sunscreen scent with a bit of added sweetness, but it’s very minimal and fades quickly.

The tube is standard and easy to use, and the vibrant orange is easy to spot in your purse or counter making it easy to find or remember to reapply within the recommended 2-hour time period! You could also use the cap as a mirror in a pinch, since it's reflective. Compared to other mid-to-high end 50SPF sunscreens, the price and portion are reasonable; not as expensive as Murad, but in the realm of Shiseido. This 50 gram tube comes in around $35, but unfortunately it’s not available via Amazon like I would hope for. Ultimately I’m happy with the performance of this sunscreen, and I would prefer an all-natural ingredient list, but I would try it again if it were easily available in the US.

CELGEN MILD SUN SPF50+ / PA+++

Vely Vely Aura Honey Glow Cushion

I’ve recently introduced Vely Vely Aura Honey Glow Cushion compact into my makeup routine. This Kbeauty foundation combines both skincare and makeup with its amazing lightweight, dewy formula that enhances one’s skin appearance and hydration.

The packaging, a soft pastel yellow and reflective gold border that wraps the exterior and into the interior of the compact, evokes a luxurious feel and inspires you to glam up your day.

 

Inside is a large mirror, ribbon makeup puff and it’s placeholder that securely encloses the cushion foundation so it doesn't dry out. As an added value, unlike any other compact here in the USA, it comes with a full refill and extra sample sachet of Vely Vely C-Tamin Toner, Serum and Cream.

Some of the amazing ingredients include 31% Belgian Hot Spring Spa Water which has many benefits, such as excellent hydration, reduces dark under-eyes, and provides a natural glow. Honey Glow Propolis adds many of the necessary nutrients for healthy skin. Furthermore, Rainbow Collagen Complex improves skin elasticity and an infusion of White Sapphire for extra radiance.

 

Other noteworthy ingredients are Asiatic Pennywort (Centella Asiatica) enriched with amino acids that soothes and protects skin’s barrier. Panthenol which is both a humectant and emollient that not only binds the moisture to the skin but locks it in. Two final points that I really love about this product are the hypo-allergenic cushion and perhaps more importantly it even has a 50+ SPF and PA+++ rating for sun protection.

This foundation is intended for skin types that fall into normal, dry or combination. I have combination skin that tends to get more oily as the temperature starts to rise so I will certainly see how this hydrating formula collides with the increased oiliness. As of now, with normal Spring temperatures from 50-60 degrees, this has been a perfect fit.

The dewy and hydrating properties bring a soft glow to my foundation, which can also be mattified if necessary by a good powder or taken down with a blotting sheet. The coverage is light to a buildable medium, so if you have problem areas I would recommend the use of a concealer alongside, but otherwise this brings a natural finish to the face with a dewy touch.

 

The application is easy whether by the provided puff or,what I typically like to use, a slightly damp beauty sponge. It reduces the redness in my complexion and doesn’t settle into my fine lines, never looking cakey.

In total, Vely Vely Aura Honey Glow Cushion is a long-lasting foundation that I noticed no separation or no need for touch ups after 8 hours of wear. In my opinion it's perfect for more natural or minimal makeup days. I can’t recommend this enough, if you are looking for a radiant lightweight foundation this is the compact for you!

Vely Vely Aura Honey Glow Cushion

Nakeup Face / One Night Cushion Foundation

Nakeup Face One Night Cushion is a care-free foundation that nourishes your skin while giving you a natural, no-makeup look. This cushion is unique because it’s the only one that you can sleep in without fear of irritation or wasting the product.

At first glance, the One Night Cushion looks absolutely luxurious with its beautiful, sparkly packaging paired with a thoughtful clamshell design that houses the product and cushion. The foundation itself is also verified EWG green, meaning that the ingredients have been deemed safe and healthy according to extremely stringent testing.

Personally, I almost never use cushion foundation, and instead opt for tube-dispensed liquid foundation. However, I’ve found that Nakeup Face has gone above and beyond by creating a cushion that distributes the product well without soaking it all up, like I’ve experienced before with the competition. It also helps that this is a wet foundation with great saturation, while I’ve tried cushions before that were incredibly dry.

Upon the first application, it’s a very light foundation, but it can be built up to a medium, which I prefer since it helps cover my problem areas. The product isn’t too cakey and spreads very evenly, and as it turns out, the #01 Ivory Nude shade is actually a perfect match for my skin tone as well. As an extra tip, you can also forego the cushion and use a beauty blender to apply the foundation.

In use, it does not seem at all oily, is lightweight, and has no stickiness, all while looking very natural. There is a very faint clean scent, but after the initial application it will go unnoticed.

Ultimately, I can definitely see myself using this as an everyday foundation. That said, I’d be reluctant to try wearing this to sleep since I’m afraid of getting product on my linens, but I look forward to testing it out with a towel covering my pillow.
