Get more out of your cushion foundation with this simple tip!

Have you jumped on the cushion bandwagon yet?  If you haven't you so should - it's fun!

In a nutshell, a cushion foundation (or blush, or concealer, or whatever) is a compact containing a sponge soaked in a watered down formula.

• Sponge?  Yeap, you just push down and voila, a light even amount of product is dispensed.
• Watered down? Yeap, but these products are designed to build, which means you use less, while achieving the desired coverage.

I adore my L'Oreal Nude Magique Cushion Foundation and so do loads of other Kiwi women, check out loads of independant reviews here.  But one common grumble seems to be that the product runs out quickly.  

Enter my top tip.

Flip the sponge.  

More product lies on t'other side and underneath. How much?  Well it depends how much you use of course, but I got another fortnight out of mine!

Waste not want not.
