One of my newest beauty and skincare favorites actually comes from a rather surprising source: South Korean entertainment giant YG Entertainment. YG Entertainment is famous for its pop groups including BigBang and Black Pink, both of whom are also brand ambassadors for Moonshot.
Moonshot, as far as I can tell, was the idea of a summer intern that ended up coming to be. I wasn't aware of the brand until I stayed in Seoul, South Korea for six months as an exchange student. I found out about it through a friend who is a huge fan of a YG Entertainment group, so I followed her to one of their stores to check it out. I didn't buy anything on my visit, but I ended up having a few hours free time later during my trip and ended up buying a few things. I left Korea wishing I had stocked up on more of the Moonshot product since I liked the items I had so much. I ended up going back to Seoul in December and made sure to stock up on the products I hadn't gotten the first time around.
My first and favorite product from Moonshot is definitely the Microfit Cushion. It's not drying as many cushions can be, and it also has SPF in it, which makes it a double bonus if you accidentally forget sunscreen in your beauty routine.
The Moonflash Cushion is a more recent purchase. I haven't tried it yet, but the basic idea behind it is a highlighter. It's a highlighter in cushion form. I personally struggle using brushes and applying liquid products evenly throughout my face, so having a highlighter in cushion form is a great thing for someone like me. It comes in a pink-ish shade and works also as a base and top layer. The pinkish tone is great to add a little bit of color to a finished makeup look as a highlighter or works great as a color correcting to soften the tone of the skin.
(Both of these are refill-able, with the re-fills being found here - 'Microfit re-fill' x 'Moonflash re-fill'.)
