Style Icon: Brigitte Bardot


I can't believe I do 2 blog posts in a 2 day row!

So this time I'm telling you about my style icon at the moment ( well, atleast for the makeup), Brigitte Bardot.

Her beauty never go out of style. I love her wing eyeliner, her peachy pouty lips, her blondey and voluminous hair. Her flawless velvet skin.
She's sexy without trying.
I love her style!

Review: Etude House Precious Mineral All Day Strong BB Cream #3 sheer flawless skin

I've always been a tinted moisturizer and BB cream person than a foundation maniac. Since my overall skin is in quite a good condition. I have some acne scaring sometimes but that the concealer job, right?

This time I'm doing a review on Etude House Precious Mineral All Day Strong BB Cream #3 sheer flawless skin. I'm not sure about the different in 3 shades. Since some say that 1 is the lightest and 3 is the darkest, but the product description say #1 Sheer Silky Skin, #2 Sheer Glowing Skin, #3 Sheer Flawless Skin.
So I guess the formulation may be varies among all 3 shades too.

What it is: Precious Mineral BB Cream promotes silky complexion and brightened look with pearl infused sheer coverage. Improved SPF protection with a hypoallergenic and oil-free formula.

My Experience: This BB cream give almost a full coverage. It's much more than I'd expect from a BB cream to be. I don't even need concealor when using this. The texure is quite runny and very easy to blend.  But after a few minutes it look cakey on my oily-combination skin. I need to touch up twice during the day which is uncool. Since I tend to be super busy all day that I don't even have time for touch up.
One thing I notice after using this for a while, it clog my pores badly. I got more and more spot eveytime I use it.
Overall it's a good BB cream for dry skin or winter season when your skin turn toward dryer side.
It's very easy to apply. give good coverage. But I'd not buying this again. It's just not for my oily- combination skin. And since it clog my pores badly I ended up give it away.
