Brilio.net - Cushion is a practical base makeup option that is suitable for beginners. With the puff applicator that is already available, it is very easy to use, just by patting it lightly on the face. For everyday makeup looks, cushion is more recommended than foundation because its texture is lighter and more comfortable to use.
In addition to being practical, cushions also have other advantages, such as their ability to nourish the skin thanks to the moisturizing content in them. This product can also help disguise facial imperfections without making makeup feel heavy. Plus, cushions make it easy to re-touch at any time without the hassle of carrying a lot of makeup products.
For those of you who want to try cushion but haven't had the chance to buy it or have run out of the product, don't worry! It turns out, you can make your own cushion at home with easily available ingredients.
As shared by a TikTok user with the account @hanreena on (4/12), in the 58-second video she uploaded, she showed how to make a cushion with just three simple ingredients: foundation, moisturizer, and sunscreen.
"Let's DIY a cushion. A solution for those who have foundation that is too light/too creamy. Rather than having a cushion case piling up at home, hehe..." she wrote in a video uploaded to the TikTok account @hanreena, as quoted by briliobeauty.net on Friday (21/3).

Before mixing the cushion, you must first prepare the tools, such as an empty case, cushion refill foam, and cushion puff. You can use an empty case from a used cushion or you can buy it on e-commerce. Likewise with cushion refill foam and cushion puff that you can also buy on e-commerce.
How to make it is quite easy, namely clean the used cushion case by taking the puff and used cushion foam using tweezers. Next, use cleansing wipes or wet tissues to wipe the inside of the case until clean. Don't forget to also clean the outside of the case from the remaining previous cushion. To be more sterile, you can also spray hand sanitizer or alcohol inside the case that will be used. Then wipe until dry and clean.

After that, pour the foundation and moisturizer into the case with a ratio of 2:1. Then, pour enough sunscreen, not too much so that it is not too runny. Furthermore, stir the three ingredients until evenly mixed until the texture is like a cushion in general. Then insert the cushion foam into the cushion case and tidy it up. Press until the foundation absorbs into the foam.
