Top 7 beauty cushions for ever-ready you:

In the beginning, there were foundations. Then came the BBs and CCs, with their magic tricks. But do you really have the time to get the perfect amount of your BB or CC to achieve a well-toned look? Not really, unless you have a back-up cushion to fall back on.

BB and CC creams were all the rage till the smart ‘cushions’ made  grand entrance. Spongy compact versions of BB and CC goodness, these friends of your skin come in ranges that fit your kit and purse.

Before you go picking the first one off the shelf, here’s our recommended list.
