Korean cushions and deeper skin tones: are there finally shades for us?

For years the complaint in Latin communities was clear: Korean cushions came in three or four light shades, and anyone with brown or olive skin was left out. On social media and makeup forums, the conversation has shifted a little:

  • Some Korean brands have expanded their shade ranges for international markets.

  • Still, many people say the wider range doesn't always reach shops in Latin America or Spain.

  • Another recurring topic is undertone. Many Korean shades lean pink or neutral, and golden or olive undertones notice a greyish cast.

  • Oxidation also comes up: a shade that looks perfect in store can darken a few hours later.

Tips going around:

  • Test on the jawline in daylight, not on your hand.

  • Wait a few minutes before deciding.

  • Mix two shades, or use a lighter cushion as a skin tint.

Have you found a Korean cushion that matches your tone? Or have you given up?
