Summer Fridays Rich Cushion Face Cream
$52 for a luxury-positioned cream with clinically tested hydration claims and hybrid functionality is in line with prestige skincare; whether it justifies the investment depends on how much primer duty you ask it to do.
What it is
A rich, plush face cream that doubles as a primer, loaded with glycerin, squalane, and hyaluronic acid to lock in moisture and blur fine lines. Built for anyone whose skin drinks in hydration like it's going out of style.

The multitasker that actually delivers on both fronts.
A 1.69 oz ultra-rich cream that works as both skincare and makeup primer, designed to plump skin and prep your canvas without clogging pores.
Summer Fridays pitches this as a clinically tested hydration workhorse—100% of 32 participants saw measurable improvement in hydration after one 8-hour use.
What we looked at
- 01Hydration Arsenal Glycerin, Squalane, Hyaluronic Acid, Saccharide Isomerate
This is a humectant-heavy lineup designed to pull moisture into skin and hold it there. The combination of glycerin and squalane creates a barrier that feels luxe without suffocating—ideal if you want plumpness without the heavy residue.
- 02Dual Function Works as moisturizer and makeup primer
You can apply this under makeup or wear it solo. Non-comedogenic and fragrance-free means it won't trigger breakouts or sting sensitive skin, making it flexible enough for most routines.
- 03Texture & Feel Rich, cushioning formula in 1.69 oz
This is a dense cream, not a lotion—expect a substantial, almost whipped texture that melts in. A little goes a long way, so the size should last longer than the packaging suggests.
