THE MUST-BUY: DIORSKIN FOREVER PERFECT CUSHION

The pro of using a cushion compact is its lightweight feel – though the same can be said of the durability (regular touch-ups needed) and coverage (it’s usually natural). Thanks to something called Colour Lock Technology (which helps maintain the original shade of one’s makeup), this lasts a good 16 hours, helps hide fine lines, redness and light pigmentation liquid foundation, yet doesn’t feel one bit heavy. Add the luminous matte finish that keeps skin radiant even in muggy heat, and we’re talking a heavyweight among cushion compacts. In six shades, $78 each
