I'm so glad you mentioned why you shouldn't mix an SPF product in. So many of these tutorials I've seen mix in an SPF and yours is the first one I've seen that explains why you shouldn't do that.
Thank you so much for this DIY video! As a woman with darker skin, it's really hard for me to find an affordable cushion foundation compact, if one at all. It's almost 2017, and I feel that the companies don't have any excuse to exclude dark-skinned people like this. But for now, I will make my own thanks to this video!!
Oishi Zulfiquar it's not a racism issue its just that Korean compacts aren't concerned with " non native " skin colours no offense but if you are in Korea and have darker skin it's kind of suggesting you can't afford luxuries like beauties supplies like skin brightens
I used an essence, serum, a whitening cream and Aloe Vera Gel with my lancome Foundation and a little bit of aritaum and missha bb cream. and its the best thing ever! no cushion Foundation worked for me, i tested cheaper and more expensive ones and hated them all. but the one I made myself just looks like... Skin! I don't need to powder, i don't need to Touch up, its perfect ! thank you for this inspiration, Renée! I just ordered some of those empty cases to play around a little more!
Thank you so much for this video! I have made my own cushion using: double wear foundation, propolis sparkle ampoule, tea tree essence, pore corset, mac oil control lotion and strobe cream. Oh my goodness- it’s my new PERFECT foundation. Not to oily, not too dry, perfect colour and coverage. Thank you so so so much for the inspiration and good skin! Changed the game!!
I am so pleased to see this tutorial. I have been taking tips from you regarding proper cleansers (never knew how important pH is for blemish-free skin). Now you have shared a way for me to try the look and benefit of a cushion. The brands available aren't deep enough for my complexion but I am going to give this a try. Thank you so much. I appreciate your videos, they have really opened up some valuable information about skin health and beauty.😊
Thanks for giving the heads up on avoiding oil and sunscreen! It seem like common sense, but I think I would have ended up putting them in the mixing frenzy.
You deserve more than the amount of subscribers right now! Seriously, I love your content. I have an empty cushion compact right now and I want to do this
oh my gosh - this is an absolutely amazing idea! I would have never thought to create my own bb cushion, but this is perfect because I haven't been able to find cushions light enough for my complexion in America. Thank you for the idea / advice! :)
Brilliant!! As an Indian woman this is soooo helpful, I have yet to find a foundation that really matches me so it's encouraging to see how to mix your own. Thank you!
Hey Renée! Thanks for the video. I bought a pink Memebox cushion, poured in my beloved Estée Lauder DW in Dawn, Missha Time Revolution Essence, SharaShara Berry Bomb Ampoule, and some Becca Ever-Matte Poreless Perfecting Primer. I mixed it all up...and the results are fantastic. Most cushions that I see have a very dewy finish and are not dark enough for my skintone. I have very oily skin, so this idea is great. I love how cushion foundations apply so effortlessly. Above all else, I want for it to look natural!
When I think of all the times I've mixed foundations and thrown away the excess I could scream but thanks to this DIY I no longer have to. I wish I discovered your videos years ago, THANK YOU!!!
Thank you so much for this video! I actually had this compact already and just hadn't found a way to figure out what to put in it. Your video was so very helpful and thank you for explaining about not putting sunscreen in it. After your video I made up my foundation mixture, put it in my compact and it's great!! I can't wait to keep using it and this will be wonderful on trips when I don't want to take bottles and tubes with me. Thank you again. I'm a new viewer and I have to say that I have loved all the videos that I have seen so far. Thank you.
Amazing! I just can't find a Cushion Foundation that matches my NC40 skin so this is PERFECT! I can't wait to make my own custom formula. Thank you very much, Renée! This video was full of great tips and informations as always. x Davie
+Gothamista Awww! I'm French so the accent on your name was pretty obvious to me (I have to admit that the autocorrect on my phone put it automatically though. Lol)
Gothamista hey i am in senior high currently, i have the case but i wanted to make a bb cushion, if i use a bb cream instead of foundation is it fine? And then what other ingredients should i put for oily skin? Thanks your reply helps me a lot 😊
I made my own cushion today and I love it! I think that this is a great idea as my skin needs change with the weather, I can add more moisture in the winter and tea tree essence in the summer! Now I can touch up my makeup without dragging a lot of products around with me.
Thank you for the information. Although I have a cushion compact for my skin tone, it doesn't match my undertone at all and this tutorial has inspired me to make my own custom cushion! You are a godsend. Keep it up!
great video. you can also reuse the cushion packages you already have, like the loreal one, when you run out of the actual product and the cushion dries out. just wash it well before refilling!
omg i can just watch your channel all day long!!😂🤣 i actually spend the entire night before my water broke watching your videos lmao and if i had contractions i didn't even notice 🤣😂😂
I was wondering if this could have been done. I knew you'd be the one to show me. Good thing you said no oil, I love adding oils to my foundation. Now I just have to get a compact to give it a try. Xoxo
Pore Tightening Sebum Control, Tea Tree Essence, Infallible Pro-Matte from L'Oréal, along with the Instant Pore Eraser from Maybelline and very little of my favorite moisturizer. Gives a great matte finish with skincare properties. Loved the tutorial and am very satisfied with my CC cushion.
Renee, you always read my mind! Was just browsing on memebox a couple days ago wondering how good the DIY cushion is! Thanks for always making creative and new videos!
oh my gosh I cannot WAIT to try this! I have an old pseudo cushion compact from another brand that was terrible! I found it the other day and thought I would have to throw it away, now I know what to do! =) Simply ADORE your videos!
Renee, this was an awesome video post, thank you! I stumbled upon your channel about a month or so ago when my interest in k-beauty really started to flourish and I am SO happy for that! Every video you post has been super interesting and fun and I am learning so much. Thanks again and keep ´em coming!
I've been side-glancing DIY cushion compacts for a while...never occurred to me to wash and reuse one! thx for head's up on Hadalabo lotion, would have definitely thrown that in there... *pulling on lab coat and getting ready to play*
I am officially addicted to your channel and this tutorial was perfect for me as I couldn't find a good shade of cushion foundation for me, I will absolutely try this method and please do more videos 💙
OMG! I was just thinking yesterday what a shame it is that I can't use my Etude House cushion because its at least two shades too light for me, then BAM! this pops up on my feed. I have just washed all the foundation out of my cushion (so much hot water and Fairy detergent), now I'm ready to DIY!
Not sure how I did it, but I missed a couple of your videos😱. It's ok, now I get to watch several in a row🤗. Great idea, Renee. I am definitely going to try this! It'll be a blast! And convenient, it's really hard to find a non scented one that works great. As always, great video!
Mine is Estée Lauder DW, some of their night repair serum and some Clinique moisturizer. Have the propolis in my cart to try for this spring and summer!
Love your video! ☺️ can you recommend a product that could prevent oiliness but would still retain the dewiness of the foundation? I have combination type of skin 😔 (also, is this also applicable for bb creams?) Thank you for a great video.
+babygaljules I kinda hate that about makeup and brands all together. They cater so much to light-skinned people that They forget that there's so much skin types and colors. Hope everything works out for you!!
I once tried to make a diy cushion but I failed :D Now I understand why ... thank you so much for sharing I have to try again with a different mixture! 😍
I tried this! I loved it but, it seems like it's drying out incredibly fast and I have to constantly flip the sponge over everyday to get the coverage I want.
Wow this is amazing! I had seen these compact cushions on MEMEBOX but I just thought you could use it to put your liquid makeup in. I am so excited to try this out and mix my own for my skins own needs! By the way you have such beautiful skin, since watching your channel I've become more attentive on taking care of my skin. Love your channel!!
Love this so much. Great info for other ingredients for skincare purposes too. But seriously girl, you don't even need foundation. Your face and skinners already perfect before putting the foundation on
Hello, thank you very much for this tutorial, it's so good! But i was wondering, can I put only sunscreen on the cushion? Do you know if putting just sunscreen (cream or liquid) will expire the product itself? I'm sorry for my bad English =/ Kisses and hugs from Brazil
Finally an in depth how to on making your own Cushion Foundation. I'm waiting for my Memebox case to come in atm! I'm thinking of using my Koh Gen Do plus my becca liquid highlighter with a serum that I haven't decided on yet. Quick question, which propolis ampoule do you prefer??? The Tosowoong Propolis Sparkle Ampoule or the LJH Vita Propolis Ampoule?
I know you may be tired of me saying the same thing all the time but your skin is to die for!! Great video Renee! didnt know MEME box actually sells the cushion case for you to DIY yourself. how cool!
I just want to ask, what do you think of my cocktail: aloe vera gel. Tea tree oilby body shop. My foundation is the loreal infallible 24 hr foundation and then celeteque facial moisturizer. Is it better to leave the tea tree oil or the aloe gel? Thanks for your answers 😄😄
Can't wait to try this out! Are there any components you would recommend leaving out or putting in for oily skin? I would be aiming for a slightly matter finish.
Yes, the lighting makes me look very, um, reflective here :) You should use your favourite matte finish foundation and use an oil control primer in place of moisturizer.
Hi Renee! Great tips on not adding oil and sunscreen for this project. However I have a question. Can you add primer to this? I'm thinking of using my Innisfree blur primer for this DIY.
wow.. thx Renée. .! I had my iope cushion case.. I might whip up klairs illuminating bb foundation with my primera oil free gel... will it crumble? or will it be too watery for my combination skin? vit c is a no no i guess?
Great! I'm like a mad scientist sometimes, I love mixing things. I have the Amore Pacific cushion Reneen talked about (gold&white) but I'm not happy about the colors offered. I have yellow tones which should be 204, but it's dark on me. Now I can mix my own. Plus, I have the products mentioned already too.
Thank you for this! I can't wait to try it. Your recommendations, videos and diy projects have been serious game changers for me. My skin is better than ever! My latest purchase was the Su:m37 rose cleanser and it's amazing so far.
I have to admit, I don't have enough resources and materials for putting all you did in the cushion, but I'm super interested in making my own anyway ! If you had to suggest like one or two ingredients other than the foundation, what would it be please ?
Would it work just as well if you just put foundation in there? I don't have all this fancy-shmancy stuff, I just want the cushion foundation as a convenient option when traveling. Do you need those extra ingredients for a thinner consistency? Would just moisturizer work?
I'm so glad you mentioned why you shouldn't mix an SPF product in. So many of these tutorials I've seen mix in an SPF and yours is the first one I've seen that explains why you shouldn't do that.
hiddencat8 how about foundations who already have a spf inside?
As Renee says in the video, that's fine.
I usually use the face shop air cotton base in lavender, its like primer with color corrector, can i mix it? Since it has lavender color? Thankuuu 😣❤
Thank you so much for this DIY video! As a woman with darker skin, it's really hard for me to find an affordable cushion foundation compact, if one at all.

I agree!
Oishi Zulfiquar it's not a racism issue its just that Korean compacts aren't concerned with " non native " skin colours no offense but if you are in Korea and have darker skin it's kind of suggesting you can't afford luxuries like beauties supplies like skin brightens
+EHHEMBeauty 101 No offense, but your comment is bordering on gibberish towards the end there. Might want to work on that.
EHHEMBeauty 101 she's nor talking about korean brands but western brands. They do sell cushions in the west but just not with different colour
try loreal lol
I used an essence, serum, a whitening cream and Aloe Vera Gel with my lancome Foundation and a little bit of aritaum and missha bb cream. and its the best thing ever! no cushion Foundation worked for me, i tested cheaper and more expensive ones and hated them all. but the one I made myself just looks like... Skin! I don't need to powder, i don't need to Touch up, its perfect ! thank you for this inspiration, Renée! I just ordered some of those empty cases to play around a little more!
When you want to refill your cushion do you just insert a new DIY core or do you have to get a whole new compact
@@tiggerrox2010 the only thing you should replace is the sponge you use on your face! You can just wash the compact out and reuse.
@@buffysummers5828 why do I need to replace it?? Can't I just wash it?
imagine using a product to change your complextion- you are beautiful as you are smh

Hey Renée! Thanks for the video. I bought a pink Memebox cushion, poured in my beloved Estée Lauder DW in Dawn, Missha Time Revolution Essence, SharaShara Berry Bomb Ampoule, and some Becca Ever-Matte Poreless Perfecting Primer. I mixed it all up...and the results are fantastic. Most cushions that I see have a very dewy finish and are not dark enough for my skintone. I have very oily skin, so this idea is great. I love how cushion foundations apply so effortlessly. Above all else, I want for it to look natural!
Wow!! That sounds wonderful. I'm amused that you used the berry bomb and that it worked well! Maybe I'll try that next haha, that jar is never ending!
When I think of all the times I've mixed foundations and thrown away the excess I could scream but thanks to this DIY I no longer have to. I wish I discovered your videos years ago, THANK YOU!!!
"merci" for this lovely tuto !! easy I can do my very personal face make up !! thank you, kiss from France
Yes you can!
This is perfect! As someone with dark skin I really struggle to find cushion compacts this helps so much thank you!
Thank you so much for this video! I actually had this compact already and just hadn't found a way to figure out what to put in it.

Love your videos! You are up there with Lisa Eldridge and Emily Noel83 for me 👌🏿 so glad I found you!
I am so incredibly flattered. Thank you so much for putting me with such company!!!
This is an old comment, but SAAAAAAME. Lisa Eldridge, EmilyNoel83, & Stephanie Nicole for the sassy one of the bunch. :P

I am sooooooooo happy I found your channel! You are so knowledgeable and genuinely dedicated.
Ohhh my goodness!! This idea is so creative! I had no idea you can find a "empty" cushion compact to mix your own. Great share! Thanks!
Thank you for explaining why not to mix in sunscreen! I never thought about the UV blocking parts and the potential for it to separate and not work!
Thank you for this video! Question: how do you feel about combining foundation with The Ordinary Niacinimide serum?
I love cushion foundations, they’re so cute and travel friendly! Can’t wait to mix my own x

Love your channel 😊😊
Thank you so much!

This is such a good idea! I've ordered some empty cushion compacts to try this out for myself :-D Thank you so much for this tutorial

Mine is Estée Lauder DW, some of their night repair serum and some Clinique moisturizer. Have the propolis in my cart to try for this spring and summer!
Love your video! ☺️ can you recommend a product that could prevent oiliness but would still retain the dewiness of the foundation? I have combination type of skin 😔 (also, is this also applicable for bb creams?) Thank you for a great video.
Hi Renee , Great to see you,Thank you for sharing, on DIY on custom cushion foundation,You are brilliant,Love Bee Hune 💗👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻⛅️
you're a genius!! I love it!!
I LOVE THIS!! Never thought of creating my own cushion.. Since most cushions don't match my brown skin tone.

Better luck this time!
Thank you so much for this informative tutorial and tip on oil and spf. 👍🏻👏
Girl where have you been in my whole life? You just earn a subcriber and 👍
I tried this! I loved it but, it seems like it's drying out incredibly fast and I have to constantly flip the sponge over everyday to get the coverage I want.
I love your DIY videos so much. It makes me feel like I'm a scientist haha
Wow this is amazing! I had seen these compact cushions on MEMEBOX but I just thought you could use it to put your liquid makeup in.

Love this so much. Great info for other ingredients for skincare purposes too. But seriously girl, you don't even need foundation. Your face and skinners already perfect before putting the foundation on
Life changing! I feel like I just discovered fire!!! Where have I been? Under a rock apparently 🙄
Hello, thank you very much for this tutorial, it's so good! But i was wondering, can I put only sunscreen on the cushion? Do you know if putting just sunscreen (cream or liquid) will expire the product itself? I'm sorry for my bad English =/ Kisses and hugs from Brazil
Wow! Awesome tutorial! I learned a lot.You explain very well. Glad I found you and subscribed!
Thank you Kay!
Finally an in depth how to on making your own Cushion Foundation. I'm waiting for my Memebox case to come in atm! I'm thinking of using my Koh Gen Do plus my becca liquid highlighter with a serum that I haven't decided on yet.
Quick question, which propolis ampoule do you prefer??? The Tosowoong Propolis Sparkle Ampoule or the LJH Vita Propolis Ampoule?
My problem with cushions is that they are never made by cruelty free brands, so I love this DIY.
It’s also hard to find a cushion compact that’s plastic free
I know you may be tired of me saying the same thing all the time but your skin is to die for!! Great video Renee! didnt know MEME box actually sells the cushion case for you to DIY yourself. how cool!
Nope! Never get tired of that! Thank you Love!!
I just want to ask, what do you think of my cocktail: aloe vera gel. Tea tree oilby body shop. My foundation is the loreal infallible 24 hr foundation and then celeteque facial moisturizer. Is it better to leave the tea tree oil or the aloe gel? Thanks for your answers 😄😄
Very helpful that you said don't put suncream in the cushion
Can't wait to try but just one question, may I use the CosRX BHA skin returning A-sol and their Oil free ultra moisturizing lotion?
Can't wait to try this out! Are there any components you would recommend leaving out or putting in for oily skin? I would be aiming for a slightly matter finish.
Yes, the lighting makes me look very, um, reflective here :) You should use your favourite matte finish foundation and use an oil control primer in place of moisturizer.
Hi Renee! Great tips on not adding oil and sunscreen for this project. However I have a question. Can you add primer to this? I'm thinking of using my Innisfree blur primer for this DIY.
Yes! Add primer!
wow.. thx Renée. .! I had my iope cushion case.. I might whip up klairs illuminating bb foundation with my primera oil free gel... will it crumble? or will it be too watery for my combination skin? vit c is a no no i guess?
Hi! I wouldn't put vit C in there as it becomes useless when exposed to the elements too long! Everything else sounds great though.
Thx Renée! ! I will keep that in mind...
Great! I'm like a mad scientist sometimes, I love mixing things. I have the Amore Pacific cushion Reneen talked about (gold&white) but I'm not happy about the colors offered. I have yellow tones which should be 204, but it's dark on me. Now I can mix my own. Plus, I have the products mentioned already too.

Yes! The whole mixing thing is tremendous fun. So much control!

Thank you Gina! This really is the best for travel!
going to try it, do you need to add Tosowoong Propolis Sparkle Ampoule and can you also make it matt. thank you so much
Thank you for this! I can't wait to try it. Your recommendations, videos and diy projects have been serious game changers for me. My skin is better than ever! My latest purchase was the Su:m37 rose cleanser and it's amazing so far.

Yes! I also love the mizon bb!
Greetings from Panamá! just wanted to say that you are awesome, love your videos!
Thank you soooo much!!
I have to admit, I don't have enough resources and materials for putting all you did in the cushion, but I'm super interested in making my own anyway !
If you had to suggest like one or two ingredients other than the foundation, what would it be please ?
Thank you so much! Just the tutorial I was waiting for, from you. Please keep the videos coming!
Thank you Claire!
Oooh. Brilliant idea!
Renee, this is amazing!
Hi Rene!
Can i make tinted sunscreen by adding loose facepowder to my sunscreen and put it in the cushion?
Omg...love, love, love this video!!
Would it work just as well if you just put foundation in there? I don't have all this fancy-shmancy stuff, I just want the cushion foundation as a convenient option when traveling. Do you need those extra ingredients for a thinner consistency? Would just moisturizer work?
perfect for just foundation and making it easier to cart around.
I've also seen a cushion compact diy video on meejmuse's channel, but its also great to see a different take on the diy route! :-)
Hi there, I just ordered the empty cushion case you recommended. Was wondering if we should wash the sponge before first use? :)
