NEW Laneige Neo Cushions: Glow + Matte 8Hr Try-On and Review! (23N)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 29 июн 2024
- I don't think I've been so excited to try a cushion (or two in this case) in a long long time. #LANEIGE has revamped their two mainstay cushion formulas and launched the new #NEOcushion line, one Glow, one Matte.
Call me a sucker but the sleek Airpod-esque pastel packaging was the first thing that caught my eye. I confess I wanted these regardless of the formula LOL. But for those of you not so easily swayed, here is a wear-test with the #mattecushion and #glowcushion on each side of my face, plus a check-in AND a touch-up test at the end of the day.

Hey, I know this video is three years old but I want to thank you for making it and keeping it up! It’s very helpful!
I was looking for a comparison between Matte and Glow and yours is really informative. Thanks for sharing.
I love how detailed your review was! I've been eyeing the Laneige cushions for a bit and now I'm set on getting one. So, I want to ask : which do you prefer formula-wise based on your skin/makeup needs?
I’ve been subscribed for maybe 1.5-ish years now and I don’t comment on here very often but I do have to say, I appreciate your content a lot. Very in-depth, very detailed and you have a very professional air about you.
Thank you SOOOO much Lyssa!! Really appreciate you dropping me a comment and thank you for the long-time support!
oh yay, im so glad you did a review on these. im more interested in the neo matte, because anything glowy irritates my rosacea. however, the glow on the glow version was soo pretty ! my face tends to sweat very easily, so i am hoping the neo matte lasts through the humidity. thank you for the review !
If my sweating under a face mask was anything to go by, Neo Matte is quite good at withstanding it! I'd still suggest blotting lightly with tissue to remove the shine but it didn't start breaking down due to the moisture, unlike many other Korean cushions!
UPDATE: Forgot to mention these formulas claim to be tested for blue light protection. Right now everyone's claiming blue light defense without universally-accepted measurements for blue light protection so I'll hold off any judgment for now. I'll say these have only PA++ and PA+++ rating, and I'd use a separate sunscreen if possible.
P.S. I just double-checked babes, and the old Laneige cushion refills don't lock into the new Neo Cushion cases, and are too tall to close the compacts over. Sad, cos I do have a couple of them to finish up. (My silly first world problems.)
You prolly dont give a shit but does someone know a tool to get back into an instagram account?
I stupidly forgot the password. I love any tricks you can offer me!
@Alan Malakai instablaster =)
@August Archer I really appreciate your reply. I found the site thru google and Im waiting for the hacking stuff atm.
I see it takes a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@August Archer It worked and I finally got access to my account again. I'm so happy:D
Thank you so much, you saved my account :D
@Alan Malakai glad I could help :)
I found your channel recently. You are such a breath of fresh air. You're so articulate I love it. I'm so tired of beauty channels where the person can not string together a decent sentence to save their life. I love your make up looks and how you do your videos thank you so much!!!
That was so kind of you to say Rebecca! Thank you so much and very glad to have you here watching!
Thanks for the review. I’ll keep these in mind.
Hey, thanks for stopping by, Susie!! ;D
Thanks Candice, u explain it so well. Very detail❤
I so love your eye make up!!
Thank you so much Mae!
So glad I found your channel! Fast becoming my fav sg youtuber (: Will the old cushions fit into the new casing? I think I might buy the new casings just cos... So chio!!
No sadly they don’t! The new ones have a twist mechanism which the old refills don’t have. Hahahah I wish it did cos I have some older refills I still want to use up!! And thank you for the sweet compliment!! 💋
LOVE this!
Hey Rye, yess they are so ridiculously cute looking LOL! (And the nice performance doesn't hurt either.)
sold this for me! so pretty. im getting the matte.
Nice pick! That's still my favorite cushion from 2020. Hope you enjoy!
Fellow Singaporean here and seriously, I loved the fact that someone here is giving these no BS detailed reviews. I first came to check out the hype about the Shu Uemura petal brush then dropped in on this video because I'm now in the market for a cushion foundation. Still don't really agree on the method of application (you used a brush) for a cushion foundation so I'm not sure if that's affected the "test" a little. So anyway, good job and keep going. Looking forward to the corresponding follow up on the glow version.
Looks lovely on your pretty face. Gonna buy the matte for sure. Very helpful. Thank you 😋
Hope you enjoy!!
i have been watching some reviews about different korean cushion products, including this, Laneige.. because I can't decide what to buy.. then i stumbled here haha, i guess i will stop here already and make the decision to go for Laneige😂 I got enough info just from watching yours. Thank you😂 saved my time..
Haha hope you enjoy!! Let me know how you like it!
Thanks so much for your review! I was looking for someone in Singapore doing a review on glow cushion foundations. Which brand would you suggest in that case for our crazy hot weather?
Thanks for the great review. I probably would buy the matte one. I used to use Laneige BB cushion pore control 23. I reckon it would be also 23 for Neo matte ya? But should I choose 23N or 23C?
Just stumbled on your video while researching the Laneige Neo cushion (lovely review/comparison)!
I know this is an older video, but I'm struggling to find a shade light enough for my very fair skin... would 21C be fair enough? I'm cool(pink) undertone, typically MAC NW10, Pat McGrath L1, Fenty 100 level for reference. Thank you for any help you can provide!
I like your review as it is thorough. Thank you so much! Like to ask - do you apply the cushion over your undereye concealer? Another question: how does the Laneige matte neo cushion compared with Hera black cushion?
Hi Esther, usually I apply the cushion first, then see where I need extra concealer. But there is no right or wrong way because cushions are patted on and don't "disturb" concealer if you like to apply that first!
Often I will even apply concealer only under my eyes and cushion everywhere else, and I won't layer them. Cos many dewy cushions will crease and look cakey around the eyes. It really depends on your preference!
Ive use the green neo for 1 month now. And i love it
Glad you like it too!! It's my current favorite... I haven't found another cushion I liked more than this one recently.
hi, really love the review! i wear estee lauder double wear in 2n1 or the Avène Mineral High Protection Tinted Compact in beige. would you recommend the 23N1 or 25N1 for me in the neo cushion?
Omg I just bought the pink one but after I watched this review I feel like I made a mistake! I’d prefer to buy the mint one! It is incredible💕💕😭
Hahaha the pink is still a great formula if you like a glow! I like it when I'm a bit more dry or I'm in a dry environment most of the day. You can always buy the mint after you're done with the pink and have a choice between which of the 2 cases to use!
Omggg it’s stocked up on JOLSE, I’m getting it for my bday in a month and other products tooooooo eeeekkk. If the 25 comes too in nuetral I’ll get that mAybe
I am so attracted to the packaging lol. I have dry skin but I can’t help but be interested in the Matte cushion. I don’t even know if I could get it in Canada 😬
I know right?? The packaging is insanely cute... I think you'd have a shot of locating one online on some of the Korean beauty sites that ship internationally! A quick google should turn up a few cos they'll have English-language sites. I have dry skin too but I don't find the matte cushion dehydrating. It's supposed to provide 8-hrs of moisture as well, so it's more of a matte finish than an oil-absorbent formula, if that makes sense!
Makeup Box I just checked Yesstyle and it’s on there! If it’s a non-drying matte formula then I might just try it 🤩
@@sjpink99 I personally love it and bought a backup since my PR kit didn't come with a refill haha. I do think it's one of the better Korean cushions to try this year!
Matt's SPF & PA are slightly lower than the Glow. Does it compromised in terms of sunscreen protection? Care to share about your opinion ?
On the old version (pore control), I'm on 21N. What shade would you suggest to get for this Matt version ?
I used the old Laneige bb cushion for years already. When i about to buy the refill (because of this pandemic, 1 refill last for more than 9 months lmao), only then i realised that they replace it with this new cushion. I've been looking detailed information about this cushion and i'm glad i found your video. This video is really detailed and helpful. You did a really good job with this. Thank you so much
Very glad you found it helpful!! Hope you enjoy the newer cushion if you do buy it! I think the new formulas are great.
Nice. Thank you!
Great review! And your skin is so flawless😭. Anyway, I ever bought L'oreal true match foundation code N2 and it suits my skin. I wanna ask which laneige matte cushion suit my skin? 21N or 23N? And may I know your skin tone? I will buy the 23N if your skin tone just as mine 😄
Hi Mardiana, thank you!! If you are using N2, it is probably closer to 23.
Hope this helps!
@@IamCandiceKC thank you!
I really love your review, it’s very informative and quite detailed ✨ I have medium skin and olive undertone, I use the shade 220 for maybeline fit me matte, do you think 31N might suit me? Thank you ☺️
Hi babe! If I don’t remember wrong Fit Me 220 is around a MAC NC37 or so? If so then yes, 31N would be the closest match or maybe a tiny bit deeper than your shade.
Thank you! I'm buying the matte after checking out your video. Can I know which eyeliner you used in the video? Cos it seems like it didn't wear off after you've gone out for nearly 8 hours.
Hi Khin Khin, it's from an Aussie brand called Mirenesse! Forbidden Ink Eyeliner 1.
@@IamCandiceKC Omg thanks for replying! Update: I've bought the cushion in colour 21N and I love ittt 🥰
Just found your channel today, love it. New subs here...
Hi, stumbled upon your video and I appreciate your review. May I ask tho what would be better for oily but dry skin?
Thanks for your review!! I've been researching about these the past few days and I'm leaning towards the glow one because I do have flaky skin which I think the matte one might enhance that instead so btr stick to hydration :(
The Glow one would definitely work better if you are dry! If you set with a little powder in areas it doesn't smear off and actually lasted pretty well for me.
@@IamCandiceKC thank you for your reply!! ❤️❤️ I'm just slightly worried about the base shifting/streaks happening if I scratch my face 😂😂 but I'm gg out tmr to get them😍
Hi Candice! I'm using Mamonde's 23N for their cushion, and got 23N for this NEO GLOW. I'm guessing 23N should be okay since I saw some reviews that said it might be abit brighter due to the whitening effect but might also oxidize abit after a few hours 🙈
@@michieet Hi Michelle, I think 23N would be fine cos the Mamonde cushions also don't oxidize much, so it should be safe to get the same number! 23N sets slightly deeper (compared to when it's wet) but it doesn't continue to oxidize further during the day.
Thank you so much!!! 🙈😍😍😍 I will try it out tomorrow for a full day and see how it goes x)
What do u think of using the glow and the matte for touch ups during the day?
I ordered the 50% off old formula and im glad i chose the pore control (which is more moisturizing as claimed) over the oil control one after hearing your theory about your skin compensating for the lack of moisture on the matte side. I hope the formula suits my skin type. Btw those are not yet available here.
Abt MsIrene I probably should have clarified that the oil production wasn’t very bad still hahaha. It was 8 hrs with a couple of hours out in the heat wearing a mask, so actually it was not a lot of oil. Just a bit more than the Glow side!
@@IamCandiceKC i get what you mean
I really wanted to try these but i havent tried any korean bb cushions before, do you think this shade suits me if im using fenty beauty pro filtr hydrating fd in code 210?
This video was really helpful thank you ♡ Do you know which color can suits better to me since I use light beige too faced born this way foundation?
I'm using Vanilla, and it seems to be 1-2 shades lighter than Light Beige, and 25N is likely a closer match to Golden Beige, so my best guess is #31 or #33 as there aren't that many shades available for these cushions, unfortunately!
@@IamCandiceKC golden beige also can works to me the problem is the undertone that is too yellow so i think i will go with 31, thank you so much ❤
Hi Candice. I ran out and got both the Glow and Matte cushions after your review. I was the 21 in their older cushions, but in the Matte i was 23N and in Glow in 25N! Somehow they both looked like the old 21 on me. Do u find the colors run a tad lighter in these versions ?
Hi Joanne, I think slightly! But I think more for the Glow version than the Matte one also. I have both mine in 23N, but the Glow looks a bit paler than the Matte (partly cos of the light-reflecting pigments possibly). If you remember the old formulas, they oxidized, so a cushion that has sat around for awhile in the compact or on your face will go a deeper shade than it was when it was freshly made. These Neo ones don't oxidize much, especially the Glow formula which resists darkening, so it makes sense to get a slightly deeper tone that fits exactly.
Makeup Box oh that makes complete sense. Lucky i went for a closest most natural match to skin!
Hello! Can you also do comparison with shades 23 Sand and 25 Tan?? I don't know which shade to choose 😅
Hey Marielle, sorry for missing your msg earlier! 23 is close to and sometimes a bit lighter than a MAC NC20 and 25 is closer to or just slightly lighter than an NC25 if you're looking for a point of reference!
Hello ! Should I still use powder after using cushion ?
which one should i buy for dry skin?
Hi! Have you ever use Maybelline age rewind concealer? If yes, may I know what shade suits u the best? Thank you!
Hi Farah, yes I have! 122 Sand is probably closest to my skintone and I use that more around the face, but I sometimes mix in a bit of 120 Light if I need more brightening under the eyes, if that makes sense!
Hi …I use Mac NC 40 plz ..suggest which shade no Wil go in my skin tone
Which one is good for dry skin?
May i know what is your shade in Maybelline fit me?
Thank you for your review.. do you use powder after applying the cushion?
Hi Andhina, yes I usually powder on the T-zone, and inner cheeks but not everywhere else cos my skin is quite dry! I definitely suggest powdering lightly if you live in a warm place! I should leave that in the video next time... sometimes I cut it out to make the video not too long hahaha.
Hi, what is you mac foundation shade? Or IT cosmetic CC shade? I'm from the U.S and its really hard for me to get the right shade for this product. Thank you
Hi Mitch, I go between NC20-25 depending on the formula! NC25 is close to 25N for Laneige, and NC30/35 = 27N if you were wondering!
@Makup Box....Omgosh, yes...I need a medium shade and I thought 25n might cut it, but I don't think so....what next next shade darker is there than 25 n @Makeup Box?! Thanks!! ❤🌺💋😘🌹
I need a cushion foundation and I don't want to go too cheap...but, I may have to. New subbie here, thanks for ur review! ❤💋😘
Hi Stephanie, so sorry I didn't see your comment previously! The next shade is 27N! If you have trouble locating it, brands like Etude House, Aprilskin and ROM&ND (plus other brands on sites like yesstyle.com) are very nice, and start at a lower price point than the LANEIGE ones. Just note that some of the cheaper ones only come with a single foundation sponge, so you get less product. But the initial investment is not so pricey if you're still testing different formulas to see which one suits you!
Oh the packaging is to die for! What’s a good shade in the neo matte if I’m 25 in Hera Black cushion? Will be buying online so can’t test it out in person unfortunately...
Laneige has a 25 for the Neo cushions as well, depending on where you buy it! It should match the HERA 25 pretty well! If you're not able to find it, 23N would be the closest but may look a tiny bit paler.
For dry skin?
I’m in a dilemma choosing which formula should I buy because I would like to cover my blemishes .. I’m a NC25 for MAC studio fix powder plus foundation and sephora 8hr mattifying compact foundation in 24 Vanilla which shade and formula would you recommend for me ?☺️
23N and 25N are both possible! It depends if you are on the lighter or tanner side of NC25.
If your MAC NC25 is a perfect match in the morning when you put it on but looks a bit too tan at the end of the day, get the 23N. If your NC25 foundation looks slightly pale/ashy in the morning but fits you better after a few hours on the skin, then go with 25N. (Hope this makes sense!)
Definitely suggest the Neo Matte formula as well, because it's made more for oily skins and has higher coverage, so it will cover marks and blemishes better! Neo Glow has less coverage and will also tend to emphasize any bumps or texture from recovering acne because of the slight glow.
Makeup Box woah okay than I’m definitely getting the 23N in the Matte formula thanks for the help❤️💛
Hi. Came across your video and am considering the neo cushion. 21 on their old cushion. I have oily t-zone but dry on the others. Which shade would u recommend me getting 21N or 23N for their matt & glow.
you may want to try 23N if you prefer the original 21 because the older color deepened a little bit after oxidizing but the new one doesn't deepen. If you match the new/fresh boxes of 21 but it's too dark on you after it oxidizes, then go with 21N!
Do they ship to the usa ?
Hi. May i know what shade are you in for Fenty Beauty's foundation? Thanks
I'm 190 currently! I would say 23N is round about a 180 for Fenty, and 190 is around a 25N. (I go between these 2 shades depending how tan I am. Hope this helps!)
I have sensitive dehydrated skin, with very slight psoriasis eczema - only 2 very small patches near my eyes. Also I am a redhead with freckles and I'm sensitive to sun-damage. I live In Denmark - the climate is mostly dry in winter to more humid in summer. It rains relatively often and is windy.
Which one would you recommend? I do like longer lasting coverage, but want my skin to feel healthy first and foremost. That's the reason I'm looking in to cushion instead of conventional foundation. also - I'm very confused as to what colour to order - I'm thinking either vanilla or cool beige.
Hi Jette, the pink one would likely be more soothing and comforting for dehydrated skin, as it has 5.7 times more hydrating ingredients than their previous cushion. As for the shade, it would be easier to gauge if you can share what other foundation shades you've used that were good matches. The Korean lines do cater to very fair skins, but I believe most of their pale tones are Neutral and the cooler tones only start from 21 up, which is round about a MAC NW15-20 or so.
Before that though, have you already tried It Cosmetics' CC Creams? It does sound like their original CC Cream formula might be a great option for you because it combines lots of hydration with the same amount of coverage as medium-to-full foundations, and is formulated specifically for people who have sensitivities and rosacea to cover up. Not to digress from Laneige but I do find that formula truly good if you're concerned about having skincare benefits in your foundation.
@@IamCandiceKC I have previously tried the Shiseido Synchro Skin Self-Refreshing Cushion Compact in the shade "120 Ivory". Haven't tried IT Cosmetics no...not yet :)
@@vanefreja86 The Neo cushion shade you match will likely be 17 Vanilla more than 21C Cool Beige, if going by Shiseido's 120, which is quite neutral (not very pink). Cool Beige is pinker, so it depends on what your body undertone is and whether you have any uneven redness on your cheeks that you want to cover a bit. If yes to redness on the cheeks, then 17 will be better to neutralize some redness. If your overall skin tone is quite pink overall, then 21C will match better.
@@IamCandiceKC ok, thanks a lot 🤗🤗🤗
Hi should i put a foundation first before that? Or is it ok to apply that cushion after my sunscreen? Thnks
Hi Pao Pao, you can apply this directly after sunscreen. It is already a foundation so you don't need a separate one!
What brush do you use to apply it? Looks very natural
That's a Givenchy Teint Couture Everwear brush (it's a mouthful I know LOL)! It's got an almost heart-shaped slant cut that's quite good for depositing and smoothing out color and getting into tighter corners.
Where can I buy these?
Hiii I was wondering if you know what shade could match Fenty beauty 280? or rare beauty 270? :( I'm having a hard time finding out, love your video btw
Hi babe, oooh that's a tricky one cos the shade gap right around the NC35 zone is massive. Are you around a MAC NC35/37 (warmer undertones)? If so 31 should be the closest for this range www.laneige.com/int/en/assets/pdp/makeup/202003/20200730_final_neo-cushion-glow_all-shades.png
@@IamCandiceKC Hello! I don’t have a Mac foundation but I have had it matched at NC37 but when it comes to BB cream I’m Light to Medium :o thank you very much for the recommendation, I’ll try to buy it and see if it matches, I don’t if I can return it in case i need a lighter or darker color
Does this have a strong scent/fragrance?
It looks perfect but im scent sensitive!thank you
Yes, laneige products contain fragrance
I’m between Mac NC25-30 (25 tad too light, 30 tad too dark/yellow).. do you think there’s a shade that’ll fit me?
Hi May, 25N would probably be perfect for you! 23N is around NC20-25 and 27N is prob closer to an NC30.
@@IamCandiceKC thank you!! I’ll give it a go. Have you used Missha cushion? If so, would you say their shades compare to Laneige’s? I heard that Laneige’s shades are slightly darker than usual so 25 Missha would be slightly lighter than Laneige’s 25 and so on. Just wondering if there’s any truth to that and if you’d happen to know.
Hi. My friend suggested this as I'm eyeing for something very handy and quick apply plus it has to be with spf. Currently Im using Clearsmooth All in One Maybelline. Code 02 Nude Beige. Mind to recommend which neo and the code shall i buy? Thank you in advance ya.
Hi Tasha, I can't be 100% sure as there is no Clear Smooth here in Singapore, but from the comparisons online, it does seem like 17 or 21 would be the best. If Nude Beige sometimes looks a bit too deep for you in daylight, you can try 17. If Nude Beige looks sometimes a bit light on your skin when you first apply it, then you may want to try 21.
@@IamCandiceKC thank you ya. i do appreciate your kind reply. :)
hi do u know a good shade for neo matte if im beige23 for romand cushion??
If you're getting the Neo Matte, 23N is the closest! 25N would be a bit too tan.
Been wanting to try this cushion since its released! Can u suggest which shade should i go for, as for now im using maybelline fit me in 130 shade.
Also thanks for the review
Hi babe, I would say 130 would be closest to a 25N, as I lean towards 25N when I wear a 128, and I wear a 23N when I'm 120.
@@IamCandiceKC thanks for the reply!
Do you know if there is a shade that would match an NC30/35?
Hi Sandra, I believe the closest match will likely be 31N or 33N! 31N's undertones will fit a MAC NC30/35 more though, as the swatches I've seen online of the new 33N seem to suit an NW30 skintone.
@@IamCandiceKC thank you! That's really helpful
I’ve been trying to find this in shade 31n. I can’t find anywhere that will ship to the US. Where can I find them?
Hi Dayna, as all the shades above a 25N are made for the Southeast Asian market (at the moment), so it may be hard to find deeper shades from Korean sellers. I've so far only seen them mostly on Southeast Asian ecommerce platforms like Lazada. Your best bet is probably to get on Lazada or Shopee and message some of the sellers to see who would be able to make an exception and ship it to the US for you!
Omgosh, yes...I need a medium shade and I thought 25n might cut it, but I don't think so....what next next shade darker thank 25 n @Makeup Box. Thanks!!
@Dayna P.....have you tried Amazon.com? They sell cushion foundations....different brands! You may find it there! Steph~ ❤💋😘
Stephanie Preston-Mullins
31n is the next shade that is darker. I tried a lot of other cushions, but only like laneige. It’s just so difficult to get this new cushion in the US.
Which is better?
Hera Glow cushion?
Hera black cushion
Dior Forever cushion
Or this Neo matte?
Hi AC, it really depends on your skin (degree of oiliness), the environment (how hot, humid or dry) and the finish you want (how luminous vs matte).
I think for general resistance to oil and heat, Hera Black is definitely the way to go. It has a semi-matte finish that's not 100% matte.
Neo Matte is 2nd most lasting for me and has a gorgeous velvet texture which the other cushions don't have, so if you have combi skin or are not super-oily, or you prefer a more airbrushed skin texture that hides pores, Neo Matte may be great.
Dior Forever is more of a satin finish, not as matte as Black and Neo Matte.
Hera Glow is really much more for slightly drier skins or cold/dry places when you want a very hydrated high-glow finish so it's completely different.

The glow side looked way too light for your skin color... but you are a beauty!
Where can I purchase in the us
Hi Jane, sadly I don't think there is an official stockist yet as these might still be Asia-exclusives (until the sunscreen filters are changed or downgraded to USFDA approved ones)! You may have to look on Korean beauty sites like Yesstyle or Feelunique to see if they might have it as these ship internationally!
Whats ur shade in the bb cushion?
Hi Cindy, do you mean the older 2 formulas? I used 23 and 21 because the older formulas oxidized and got darker over time. The Neo Glow cushion is a bit paler than the same number in the old formula cos they don't oxidize and contain some silver pigments. So if you use 23 in the BB cushions, you can try 25 for Neo Glow but probably stick with the same number for Neo Matte.
Yes the older bb cushion pore control formula. I was in 31N, do you know which shade I'll be in the neo cushion? Thanks so much for replying!
@@cindym6102 I'd stick with 31N for the Neos! 33N is too pink, so I think 31N would be the best fit.

@@IamCandiceKC thank you :)
23N white or not
Hi Leang, 23N in this new Glow cushion is whiter than BB Whitening, so if you used 23 BB Whitening, you should buy a 25 Neo Glow, but you can use 23 Neo Matte.
Hi,may I know what is yr colour in MAC?
Hey babe, I go between NC20-25 depending on which foundation formula, how much it oxidizes, and whether I’m more tan or less tan! P.S. if you are closer to NC20 then a 23N would be ok. If you are leaning NC25-30 I’d go with 25N.
@@IamCandiceKC just read through yr comments..I'm an nc30 so it's ok to order 31N in Matte?do you think its good for mature skin tone (40ish) though?thanks love!
@@Taestan95 31N might be a touch too tan for NC30. Technically, I'd recommend 27N (Korean foundation shade) for NC30, but they sadly don't have it in this range.
If NC30 is your Summer color I'd go with the 25N (as it's easier to bronze it up with bronzer or deeper face powder). Go for the 31N only if you prefer a tanner look or your body is quite tan compared to your face.
As for the formula, both are hydrating (even the matte one has 8 hrs hydration) and they have a very lightweight texture on top of the skin so it should look great on mature skins as well!

Your bare skin is so beautiful!
Thank you sooo much Pauline! Sorry I missed your comment!!
You know what they say about neo matte? Colour won’t brush off easily but it’s not true.
Your bare skin looked even more radian without the product
Haha thank you for the feedback and compliment! Yeah, makeup tends to always "flatten" and cover up any natural translucency, so most days I try to only use foundation around the undereye and inner cheek area to even out the skin tone and avoid it everywhere else. Skipping powder helps too!
Hm
Unfortunately as per usual the shade selection while better than most Korean brands but still really poor. Rlly don’t understand why it wouldn’t cater to women of colour when they want to launch internationally such as USA.
I'm not sure if these are meant to go to the US actually! Not unless they downgrade the sunscreens to the older filters approved by the FDA. In Korea they launched with 10 shades but you're right - it's still only up to a tan sort of color.
Hi Tricia, good on you for pointing that out. Actually, LANEIGE does manufacture deeper shades exclusively to cater to the southeast-asian market. The current range of cushions and concealers all go up to shade 37 which will suit beautiful chocolate-toned skin. I've personally seen this pretty lady try shade 37 on her dark cocoa skin-tone and it blended right in! I'm expecting that the NEO cushion will come in deeper shades for SEA too. But sadly, it does seem users in the US don't get access to these shades. Hmm....
Issie hmm hope the brand values diversity as singapore does have women do colour that would benefit from having a darker cushion foundation for once. If u come across any in Singapore do let me know :) been on the hunt for a friend but darkest seems to be 23N or like a 5 sand for Clio.
I feel like skincare infused makeup is prob good for lazy people who dont like to apply skincare before putting on makeup. Its a waste for people who are diligent about skincare...
I know what you mean! I wouldn't walk out the door without proper skincare and sunscreen before makeup! I think it's partly also how some brands market skincare-infused or SPF-containing makeup as being your "one step" which creates a false sense of security.
But then again, if it's between lazy folks using skincare-infused makeup versus walking out the door barefaced into the sun, I think I'd still encourage the makeup LOL! I'm over-enthusiastic enough (and also at that age) where if I can have extra protection and soothing ingredients in my makeup, I'd pick it over a similar-priced item without the skincare ingredients. But I won't compromise performance (how it looks) just for a gimmicky skincare claim!
Looks really ashy. That’s the problem with Korean colour palette. Argh.
Yeah I find the Glow formula to be slightly ashier cos of those "reflective diamond glow particles". I would have picked a 25N for that formula to reduce that "white-ness" if I'd been able to swatch it in-store. The Neo Matte settled into a nice warm-neutral tone after it dried down so I found it much better!
