"The Tirtir Red Cushion is what tourists still ask me about most, but I never recommend it for dry mature skin because even though it's a cushion it feels too heavy and too cakey. I think that's why it's so popular in humid Japan, it's thick and heavy, and it doesn't feel that popular in Korea because it feels too old fashioned and makes for too heavy, thick makeup."

"This is the cushion that's gone viral, and I'm so happy to see it finally has a full shade range, not just a couple more shades, which matters a lot since this one is a true foundation. It's very similar to the other cushion, just a little less coverage and a little less drying, sitting in a thin layer on the skin. You may have heard that this one oxidizes, and for most of the month I didn't notice it on me at all, but in my last clip it turned into a mustardy color really fast, though I don't actually think that was oxidation, I think it was a reaction to an oil balm I'd applied underneath. Frankly, the Red Cushion ended up not being my absolute favorite, I liked the division of the other two cushions more. If you've never tried it, get the one dollar sampler first to find your shade rather than the full size, since this is a foundation and not as flexible on shade as the others."
