Laneige BB Cushion - A review

After a couple of my girlfriends said that they liked this BB Cushion, I decided to take the plunge when I was walking around Changi airport before one of my trips home.  

Unfortunately, I do not like it. 

I have had this for more than a year and I alternate using this and my Sulwhasoo cushions.  To me, this just does not feel as nourishing as my Sulwhasoo cushions and my skin do not seem to take to it well.  

I am also annoyed that the puff flakes.  I am not sure why.  My friend who has been using this for years said it doesn't do that to her.  To be clear, I do not treat the Laneige cushion differently from my Sulwhasoo ones.  

Price: (includes with 1 refill)
S$43 (Changi Airport) / S$59 

Pros:
- very light coverage
- SPF 50+ / PA+++
- mid-range pricing
- easy to get ahold of
- additional puffs are available for sale

Cons:
- too light, feels watery
- doesn't seem to do anything for me
- puff flakes after awhile

Summary: 
It may be unfair to compare it to the Sulwhasoo cushions.  The Sulwhasoo ones are more expensive and are actually foundations while this is a BB cream.  Unfortunately, Sulwhasoo cushions are my first cushions so that is the only point of comparison that I have. 

No Buy March and April

As anyone who actually knows me would know, I tend to buy makeup but not use them.  This is partly because I like to shop (not something to be proud of but true) and because I believe in "going natural".  However, the result of this habit is that I have amassed a rather large collection of unused make-up.

In a bid to be a more conscious user of makeup and to justify buying more, I have decided to impose a make-up no buy for the months of March and April.  Just to give an idea (and to remind myself) things that I have but do not use, these are what I will be playing with for the month of March, instead of buying more things:-

Foundation: Laneige cushion, Sulwhasoo Perfecting cushion;
Highlighter: Benefit sample size;
Blusher: YSL (pink); Benetint (red); Clinique Cheek Pop (orange/coral);
Contour: Mac Harmony; Benefit Hoola;
Lipstick: Givenchy (for work).

In particular, I want to try to finish the items underlined.  I need to slowly clear my stash, it is getting so unwieldy that I can't recall what I have and do not have.

We shall see how this goes.
