Hands down, we have to say that Laneige’s NEO Cushion is one of the best cushions in the world. Ever since it hit the market in Malaysia last year, it has been all the rave. We bet you even have one of them with you right now! Whether your skin fits the matte or glow cushion, we cannot get enough of the extremely lightweight, breathable, and even mask-proof formula. Well, we’ve got great news for all you NEO Cushion fans. Because in November, Laneige is partnering with Maison Kitsuné to launch a limited-edition NEO cushion foundation and it’s adorable! 

What’s Different About This Limited-Edition NEO Cushion?

There’s something beautiful about combining beauty and fashion, and this is intricately expressed in this cult-favourite cushion foundation. Maison Kitsuné, a multi-faceted Paris-meets-Tokyo brand brings an inspirational addition to the popular product. 

But before we explain the NEO cushion’s design, we have to let you in on the meaning behind the illustration. The new generation is ever so familiar with the term ‘chillax’. ‘Chillax’ is a mix of the words ‘chill’ and ‘relax’, which is commonly used when referring to taking a break. With this widely used word, Laneige and Maison Kitsuné made the decision to go with the theme of “Hey NEO! Let’s CHILLAX!”. This beautifully captures the MZ generation’s lifestyle. Despite constantly hustling, this generation always manages to find time to relax in their very own ways. 

This Maison Kitsuné x LANEIGE collaboration will feature two of Laneige’s top-selling NEO Cushion Matte shades, 21N Beige and 23N Sand. But that’s not all, as the cushion foundation also comes with two exclusive merchandise, which will be a tote bag and a pouch.

Another differentiating factor from this limited-edition NEO Cushion is the brand new cream-coloured casing! Accompanying this cottagecore aesthetic is a funny and cute illustration of the “Chillax Fox”, which is Maison Kitsuné’s iconic logo. The adorable fox is also placed in three completely random positions and locations, just to add some extra fun.

What Are The Key Features Of The Laneige NEO Cushion?

There’s so much more to the NEO Cushion aside from its charming packaging. In fact, everything in this cushion foundation is very well thought out. Here’s what you should know about the NEO Cushion.

Firstly, it boasts 24-hour sweat-resistant wear. How is this possible? Well, the Humid Defense Technology helps to give you long-lasting coverage and helps manage your excess sebum. This makes the formula transfer-proof which is extremely important seeing that we’re masked up most of the time these days. 

Next, the NEO Cushion provides full yet weightless coverage, which is perfect for tropical weather. It comes with a lightweight formula that finely sticks to your skin but also promises makeup that lasts for a long time. With the Vivid Coverage Technology, the colour of the foundation remains true as this micro-sized cover powder is included in the formulation. Plus, it is also infused with Ultralight Powders which takes care of your pores and uneven skin tone. Last but not least, the matte finishing guarantees a natural and no-shine finish, without drying your skin out.

As for its well-loved design, it features a 360-degree borderless design which makes it super easy to handle. This is because it has no front and back borders, making it convenient to hold and keep. The NEO Cushion also features a one-touch spinning refill structure. This structure allows you to refill the cushion in a single rotation. And the best part? It doesn’t matter if you’re right or left-handed as it is curated to suit both hands.
