For a long time, darker skin tones couldn’t find a cushion foundation that actually catered to deeper complexions. TirTir is one of the few brands making that dream a reality with its semi-matte formula, which conditions the skin while providing buildable coverage.
Key ingredients: Red propolis, astaxanthin, hibiscus extract, sea daffodil, Rosa rugosa flower, water lily extract
Size: 0.63 fl oz
An ELLE editor says: “Up until last year, you couldn’t find a cushion foundation anywhere in my makeup bag. Then, a Black TikTok creator, Darcei (@missdarcei), introduced me to the brand and ultimately helped it expand its cushion foundation shade range. Once I tried it myself, I understood why it’s such a mainstay in Korean beauty: it’s breathable, flexible, and long-lasting.”—NP
