So far I was using (and loving) the standard cushion (one without concealer). I am generally not a big fan of concealers as I somehow can't get a handle of them and always somehow manage to apply them wrong and also can;t really find my shade. But this! This is so different! First of all, the concealer is not quite what you would normally consider a concealer. It's more of a glow-cealer :) . It's perfect for final touch ups. Applied with the cushion gives you the "perfect skin effect". I'm glad I purchased the refill of the concealer too.
