Review: Etude House Collagen Moistfull BB Cream SPF30



What it is: All in one BB cream Fountation:

1. Provides SPF30/PA+++ sun Protection.

2. Can be used as a makeup base

3. As foundation offers invisible, weightless coverage.

4. Whitening.

5. Anti Wrinkle

Ideal for all skin types


My experiance: Surprisingly, I love it! I mean from the name of the BB cream I know I'm gonna hate it for sure ( collagen + moistfull means oily and thick). But it turned out perfect for my combination skin. Because It moisturize with out makeing me look cakey. It cover well like a foundation. It has SPF 30 which is a plus because you don't need sunscreen under it.
The only downside to me is the heavy floral scent, it's quite overpowering. Overall It's a great BB cream for winter and dry-combination skin.

Review: Welcos No Makeup BB Cream spf30


What is it: 
  • BB selling one of Korea's New Face smooth and shiny with bright sunscreen and very good it was. Have good sun protection sunscreen SPF 30 PA + + with translucent qualities. Looking for the skin naturally. Containing EGF. Nourish the skin.
  • Human Epidermal Growth Factor is a substance that is a factor in the growth of skin cells.
  • EGF stimulates the creation of collagen and the growth of blood vessels. It is used in medicine.
  • EGF substance in the human body will be reduced gradually. By increasing age. Which cause aging. EGF can stimulate the production of new skin cells. The skin is moist and soft water can have anti-aging. Cosmetics containing EGF component. It has been very interesting. Besides, it can generate new skin cells and then. Can also reduce the appearance of dark spots. The prevention of melanin. It also gives skin elasticity as well.

My Experience: 
After many failures with various korean BB cream, the word "no make up"  has attracted me to this BB cream. So I end up giving a BB cream another try. And guess what... It lead to another failure😔
This BB cream claim for naturally shiny skin though, and it does what it claim.
Instantly after apply my face looked greyish white and shiny. 
After 3 hours my face turned very cakey.

Overall, if pale-white and shiny skin is what you're looking for ( poppular trend in korea) then you wouldn't disappoint. But if you have oily-combination skin and looking for a long-lasting natural makeup like me. Don't waste your money.

Review: Missha M Perfect Cover BB Cream spf42 (No.23)


What it is: The M Perfect Cover BB Cream makes your skin tone clean and natural by concealing blemishes with excellent skin coverage. It is a multi functional makeup cream with blocking UV rays, whitening and wrinkle care effects and simplifies makeup formalities. Its moisturized application with sleek W/S texture makes sleek skintone by supplying moisture and nutrition at the same time.

My experiance:
I bought it after heard all the hype everywhere on the internet. I'm sorry to say that I don't like it as much as other does. The consistency is very thick and feel very heavy on my skin. The coverage is full like a foundation and it tend to make my face look cakey during the day. Its scent also overwhleming, strong floral scent which I hate. The only good thing I found is the sunscreen property is enough to wear on its own, since I never get sunburn while wearing this BB cream. Overall it's a terrible BB cream to me. I couldn't even finish the bottle.

Review: La Roche-Posay UVIDEA XL SPF 50 PA+++ BB cream

I don't know about you guys, but my beauty stuffs seem to run out all at the same time.
I finished a lot of BB cream recently which is almost never happened before.
Today I've gone through my last drop of  La Roche-Posay UVIDEA XL SPF 50 PA+++ BB cream.
So here's the review...

What it is: 
Prevents hyperpigmentation and aging induced by UV. Contains La Roche-Posay thermal spring water, with soothing and anti-oxidant properties.

Results: Skin is hydrated, comfortable and protected from UV-induced brown spots, fine lines and darkening. Immediately, blemishes visibly fade out, complexion is long-lastingly unified for a fairer, healthier and more radiant skin. 

Use this all-year round. Apply every morning at the end of the skincare routine

My experiance: 
It seem like the perfect BB cream for me at first. Since SPF is what really matter for me.
I do believe in wearing sunscreen everyday. And this has done a serious business on SPF by giving a SPF 50 PA+++ for me it the best protection you'll ever give to your face. I never get sunburn with this on.
But the thing with this high SPF is it tend leave white cast when I took photo. And my face seem a little greyish when first apply. I need to set it with powder foundation or setting powder to make the color match me better. 

About texture I've mixed feeling about it. Because I first got it in winter and it work just fine.
But in this hot humid weather it feel greasy on the skin since first apply and after couple hours It melt off my face. which is not cool at all. Bad Bad Bad...

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.

Review: ZA TOTAL HYDRATION BB CREAM UV. SPF43 PA+++

What it isMulti-functional ”12 in 1”BB CREAM that achieves healthy glowing look. With special skincare mineral formula, it not only moisturizes skin but also works as foundation to conceal skin problems to achieve a healthy skin tone.

My  Experience: Since I have oily-combination skin and I live in climate area. I try to stay away from product that say "Hydration" and "Glowing" as far as I can. And this time apparently I made a mistake. I should have stayed away. This BB cream give you all that it claim to be hydrating and give you a glowing finish when mix in with my oily skin give the result of  oil-slicked effect on my face after only half an hour. About good part the formulation is nice, creamy and very easy to apply. It give a medium coverage and still look like you naturally have great skin which I like.So this is  definitely not for all oily skinned girls out there. If you have dry skin or you love glowing, dewy finish. I'm sure you'll love this product.

Maybelline clear smooth mineral make up review

I've tried some product from maybelline clear smooth mineral make up line for quite a while now. And I'm pleased with them. I'm not sure if these product are available outside Asia because I don't see much reviews about them.



I'm gonna start with Maybelline Clear Smooth Minerals BB Cream SPF 26 PA+++
everybody must have heard about BB cream like? I'm one of those girls who has been so crazy about BB cream.
Because I don't use foundation(in everyday make up routine). I need someting more subtle than foundation but still work well to over some dark spots and redness on my face and the most important thing is the oil control property so BB cream is an answer. But most BB cream from korean brand are so bad at oil controlling I ended up sold or gie them away. But for Maybelline Clear Smooth Minerals BB Cream SPF 26 PA+++. It answer all my needs with a super cheap price plus a sunscreen property. How could I resist not to fall in love with this product. No way! I've fall deeply in love.



Next, Clear Smooth Minerals Healthy Natural Concealer, I got it in medium which fit my skintine se well.
It's oil controll, medium coverage and doesn't break me out. It also work well to cover redness around my nose and my dark circles around the eyes. a dirt cheap concealor with great quality.

Another one is Maybelline Clear Smooth Mineral Healthy Cover Powder Foundation I got this one in OC01 Light OCRE which turn out to be far too yellow for my skintone and when apply on face it give a sheer coverage which isn't enough to cover any redness. At the end of the day I found it look very cakey on my face..not a good product. I'm finding a way to finish it.



And my new favourite cheek blushes with a super cheap price. Maybelline Clear Smooth Shine-Free Blush.
They offer in 4 shades; Fresh Berry, Fresh Appricot, Fresh Rose, Fresh Coral. And I've got 3 of them. Now you can tell how crazy I am to this blushes. They're amazing! Very pigmented, very long lasting, very cute color. They give me a very healthy flush. I don't have any Nars blush but for me These Maybelline blushes seem as great with a very low price.
