i win this pact from 0.8L indonesia's giveaway for free, and in return, i have to review and put it on my social media for a month. although i receive this for free, my review will be completely honest.
prior to receiving this gift, i have no idea at all about mizon pact. at that time, i entered every giveaway available, especially the cushion giveaway since i want to try more without having to spend my money. fortunately, i got one. and it was funny since i kept trying and forgot to check whether i win or not. and then the package came to my house and i was confused since i thought i didn't order anything online. and then i checked 0.8L website and found out that i won. hahaha.. lucky me..
this is the description from mizonworld.com: mizon correct combo pact provided moisture as well as coverage, volumizing and illuminating your skin. for a more young, healthy look. the beauty sponge allows re-application easy and sanitary.
about mizon hydratox technology: developed with snow algae, hydrasalinol, hydranov, and moringa extract. enables the control of the temperature change of the skin, as well as giving the maximum moisturizing effect and strengthens the natural defense structure of the skin. along with mizon hydratox technology, mizon color tox system leaves a watercolor-like transparent glow that brightens the natural beauty of your own skin tone.
the packaging: i don't know what you will get if you buy it yourself, but i only get the pact in a cardbox. it is black-beige pattern box while the pact is all black with only letter M on top. when you open the pact, you will see mirror and dotted surface and a button at the bottom to push the cc cream out. and a beauty sponge. i think if you buy it yourself, you will get an extra refill and i think the refill will be bulky since you have to replace the entire bottom part of the pact. i think this is a solution for those who have been afraid of germ in their cushion since the cream will only come out if you push it, unlike the cushion which is like a sponge with the cream inside it. now, it's a little bit tricky to take the "refill" part off the pact, and i can't describe it. but i read somewhere that there's a circle at the bottom of the pact that you have to push until it's off the pact.
the scent: it has pretty fragrant for a pact, and it will linger even after you put it on your face. i was sensitive to fragrance, but somehow it started to grow on me and i think the scent isn't bothering me anymore. but don't worry though, it's not that perfumy.
the product: there are only two shades, as usual. 21 and 23, and i got 21 luckily. it matches my skintone perfectly. it has medium coverage, it covers my redness, but not my acne scars completely. but i like it since it looks more natural. the puff that comes with it also works well, although i prefer the missha one.
the result: this one gives dewy finish. sometimes i like it just the way it is, but sometimes i like it matte so i use powder on my t-zone. since it's dewy and it's hot here, if i'm in an air-con room, it will hold for about 3-4 hours, but i think it will gone quicker in outdoors.
overall, this is a nice alternative from common cushion, especially if you're afraid of germs breeding in your cushion. unfortunately, it only comes in two shades, you might not have the right shades for you. and if you're super oily, perhaps you might want to consider it again since it might make you look shiny. and if you like slimmer cushion, then you might want to think again since this one is bulkier than usual cushion so it might occupy more room in your makeup bag. but for me, i like it. i like how it's easier to get the bb cream on the cushion since it will come out easily when you push the button, unlike common cushion that you have to push the cushion to get the product out. the scent is nice and it gives natural finish for me. so definitely a keeper. now i won't say that i might buy it again since korean brand tends to release limited edition and newer version or new invention, but i will recommend it if someone wants to buy bb cream or cushion.
