Take the skin testAchieve a flawless, radiant complexion with the BLACK ROUGE Thin Layer Clear Cushion. This innovative cushion foundation provides a natural, semi-glowing finish that brightens and perfects your skin. Formulated with a unique Triple Layer System, it delivers a buildable, lightweight coverage that feels incredibly comfortable and breathable. More than just makeup, this cushion also offers powerful broad-spectrum SPF50+ PA++++ protection, shielding your skin from daily UV rays while providing a clear and luminous finish. The Thin Layer Clear Cushion is packed with skincare benefits to leave your skin looking healthy and hydrated. Infused with ingredients like Pearl Extract for a clear, radiant effect and Seawater to provide an instant cooling and moisturizing sensation, it works to improve skin's texture and maintain a dewy glow for up to 24 hours. The vegan formula has been clinically tested to be non-irritating, making it a perfect choice for all skin types. Its unique teardrop-shaped puff allows for precise application, effortlessly blurring pores and imperfections for a smooth, natural look.
Thin Layer Clear Cushion is a cushioning tinted bb cream / cc cream from BLACK ROUGE. Its job is UV protection, with the rest of the formula working on hydration. The ingredient list runs to 49 ingredients, each broken down in full below.
By its ingredient list the formula reads as moderately cushioned — emollient enough to feel like a cream, without the heaviest occlusives near the top. Silicones in the formula tend to give a smooth, blurred finish and help it grip under makeup. Hydration is handled by Propanediol, Glycerin and Butylene Glycol, humectants that pull water into the upper layers of skin rather than sealing it there.
It is a mineral sunscreen, filtering with Titanium Dioxide. Between them those filters cover UVB and UVA II. They stop short of UVA I (340–400 nm), the deepest ageing wavelengths, so this is not a broad-spectrum filter system by the strictest reading. Every filter in the formula is photostable, so its protection does not fall away over the first hour in the sun — reapplication is still about sweat, water and rubbing rather than degradation.
Hydration: Very high. Ingredients that pull and hold water in the upper layers of skin, and here that comes from Propanediol, Glycerin, Butylene Glycol and Ethylhexylglycerin.
Soothing: Moderate. Ingredients aimed at visible redness and reactivity, and here that comes from Pentaerythrityl Tetraethylhexanoate, Cetyl Ethylhexanoate, Niacinamide and Bifida Ferment Lysate.
On richness alone it suits Balanced skin best, and is the least natural fit for Dry, Combination (dry), Combination (oily) and Oily skin. Nothing in the list is flagged as a common irritant, which is a reasonable starting point for reactive skin — though a patch test is still the only way to know.
The formula contributes little or nothing on barrier support, antioxidant protection, cell renewal and firmness signalling. That is not a fault — most products are not meant to do everything — but if one of those is your priority, this is not the product that will address it.
Reading the full list, the formula is essential-oil-free, no drying alcohol, paraben-free, sulfate-free, oil-free and no animal-derived ingredients. Those claims come from the ingredient list itself, not from the packaging. It does contain fragrance, worth knowing if your skin reacts to any of them.
Use it in the morning. In a routine it goes taken with food. Follow the dose on the pack and check interactions with anything you already take. It carries UV filters, so it belongs in your morning routine.

Drawn purely from the ingredient list
Scored on how rich or light the formula reads from its INCI order.
No ingredient in this formula carries a common-irritant flag, making it a reasonable option for reactive skin. A patch test is still recommended, as individual skin reactivity varies.
Based on the curated benefits documented for this product's ingredients.
Attracts and locks in moisture to keep skin plump and dewy
Boosts collagen and cell turnover to reduce fine lines and wrinkles
Calms redness, irritation, and inflammation for sensitive skin
Regulates sebum production to reduce shine and greasiness
Brightens and balances complexion for a more uniform appearance
Tightens and refines the look of enlarged pores
None of the ingredients in this formula are associated with these benefits. This is not unusual, as most products are designed to target a limited number of concerns.
Mineral filter system · does not reach UVA I
Strong UVB and short-UVA protection, but it stops before UVA I — a mineral formula leaning on titanium dioxide alone needs zinc oxide beside it for deep UVA.

Parfum is a term for ingredient labelling used to identify that a product contains a material or a combination of materials normally added to a cosmetic to produce or to mask a particular odour. According to Article 19 of the Cosmetics Regulation, 'Perfume and aromatic compositions and their raw materials shall be referred to by the terms ‘parfum’ or ‘aroma’. '

Prep: Start with your regular skincare routine. This cushion should be the last step before any other makeup (like setting powder). Press & Dab: Gently press the included puff into the cushion to pick up a small amount of product. Apply: Lightly dab the puff onto your face, starting from the center and blending outwards. Use a light, patting motion for an even, natural finish. Build: For areas that require more coverage, apply a second thin layer by gently dabbing and patting the product onto those specific spots. Tip: To get the most out of the cushion's "clear" or "semi-glow" effect, lightly spritz your face with a hydrating mist after application. This will help the cushion melt seamlessly into your skin and enhance the natural, dewy finish, giving you a fresh, glass-skin look.

BLACK ROUGE.
It filters UV with Titanium Dioxide (titanium dioxide).
Not in the strictest sense. Its filters stop short of UVA I (340–400 nm), the deepest ageing wavelengths.
Possibly. It filters with mineral UV filters, which sit on the surface and can leave a visible cast on deeper skin tones, especially at high SPF.
It contains none of the filters named in the Hawaii and Key West reef legislation (oxybenzone and octinoxate). "Reef safe" is not a regulated term, so treat that as a fact about the filter list rather than a certification.
Yes. Let it set for a couple of minutes before foundation so it does not pill, and reapply over makeup with a stick or powder rather than rubbing more in.
Every two hours of sun exposure, and immediately after swimming, sweating heavily or towelling off.
