Ingredients Explained
These ingredients are found in both products.
Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.
Cyclopentasiloxane, or D5, is a silicone used to improve texture of products and trap moisture.
D5 is considered lightweight and volatile. Volatile means it evaporates quickly after application. Once evaporated, D5 leaves a thin barrier that helps keep skin hydrated.
It is also an emollient. Emollients help soften the skin and prevent water loss. Silicones create a silky texture in products. D5 helps other ingredients become more spreadable.
Studies show D5 is safe to use in skincare products. We recommend speaking with a skincare professional if you have concerns.

CLIO Kill Cover High Glow Cushion 38 ingredients
Yesss! I like this more than the mash cushion as it looks more glowy and natural. You have to use very little product tho and first swipe and that pat it in lightly and it will look so pretty. The shade is a bit lighter than the mash cushion tho. I also really like that you get a refill so you basically have two cushions which is good for that price.
