April Skin Magic Snow Sun Cushion Review

As a cushion fanatic, I'm really excited when I found out April Skin came out with it's own sun cushion! There's nothing NOT to love about sun cushion. Ever since they came onto the beauty scene, my traditional liquid sun screen have been set aside for special occasions when I really need something heavy-duty.

Description

Ultra-lightweight Sun Cream - 100% mineral based physically reflect UV rays. Its whitening properties has been minimized in Magic Snow Sun products so it does not leave any whitening marks. And it is very moisturizing yet, non-greasy.

Packaging 
I fell in love hard with this packaging, I can’t lie. It’s my favorite shade of pink, with some artistic strokes of color thrown in. It’s so artsy looking, I feel special every time I use it! It's a sun screen in cushion form, so it's great for travel or for taking with you for touch-ups.

When you buy the whole cushion, you also get a puff applicator for applying the sun cushion. I like April Skin applicator puffs a lot because they're firm and not too porous, which means they're easy to wash and apply foundation evenly

Texture 

The texture feels fairly thick at first, and for the first few dabs on the face, it's still very white. However, as you diligently pat and blend, it seems to thin out a little and become transparent in colour. There's a noticeable whitening/brightening effect, so this may be a problem for very tanned or deep skin tones. 

Overall, I think if you're looking for a high SPF sunscreen that you can reapply throughout the day and on top of makeup, this might just be what you're looking for, especially if you, for whatever reason, don't want to use a spray (eg they can be high in alcohols). Essentially, it's just a sunscreen in a cushion, and I think it's the cushion that's what makes it good - the method of application makes sure that makeup underneath doesn't smear around and it's convenient and portable.
