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.

My rating: 2/5

Review: Clinique All About Eyes Rich

I've just ran out of my beloved eye cream of the moment, Clinique All About Eyes Rich.
So it's time for me to do a review.

What it is:Moisture-rich eye cream diminishes the look of undereye circles, shadows, fine lines-instantly and over time. De-puffs, calms with botanicals. Helps boost natural collagen production. Strengthens skin's moisture barrier against common irritants. Ophthalmologist Tested.

My experiance:
What can I say...It's perfect eye cream for me! I even considered repurchase this when I finish my current sample of The balm eye cream (which so far has done nothing for me). I love the texture of it since It's thick enough to moisturized my dry skin around the eye. with out causing milia like other oily eye cream does.

Well, let me say that I have the most stubborn and troubled skin ever!
I have oily and acne prone T-zone, my cheek tend to get a little dry. and I also have dry skin around my eye with under eye circle. 

Back to the eye cream It keep my under eye moisturize and look great I don't have any wrinkle yet. So it work as kind of a prevention. I also notice my dark circle seem diminished after qute a while. For the price I would say it a bargain price, since there're so many much more expensive eye cream that doesn't work like this. All in all if you just want a nice moisturize eye cream to prevent wrinkle I'd highly recommend this one.

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: Benefit You Rebel Tinted spf 15



What it is:  benefit you rebel is our defiantly different tinted moisturizer.
 Will leave your complexion healthy & protected with a hint of color.
 they have even thrown in antioxidants, aloe vera & allantoin for soft, supple skin all year long.

My experience: Benefit you rebel tinted has a bronzey tinted to it. Which is quite too dark for my fair asian yellow skin (NC15). But if you want too add a little color to your face, this is the perfect thing for you. As for me I kind of enjoy it once in a while when I want a sexy tanned  look. 
This product come with SPF15 which's quite too little for me. I'm quite serious about wearing sunscreen everyday and I're prefer SPF 25 or over.

About texture, it apply smoothly and work well on its own. On my oily-combination skin It leave a little sheen so I've to finish up with powder on top. Anyways this is not an oil control type base by any means, still it doesn't make me look oilier than I actually am. 
It give a very sheer coverage, so if you have any imperfection you'll need concealer.

As for me I can use only this tinted moisturize and a touch of powder and I'm good to go.  
Overall, it's great product for busy lifestyle ladies who doesn't need much coverage.
I enjoy it enough to finish the bottle but next time I'd consider the lighter version.

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: Benefit That Gal Brightening Face Primer


I've been primer and foundation mania recently. I try quite a bit of face products.
Now It's time for me to do a review on "Benefit That Gal". Well, this has been out on the marget for a very long time but I thought this wouldn't worked for me since I have oily skin and I always stick with "Oil-controlled" product.

What it is: Its a silky pink primer that makes skin appear smoother and brighter. Wear alone for clear complexion radiance or apply before makeup for smooth, effortless application. Re-brighten during the day with that gal. It's "that gal" perfection for a happy complexion.

My Experience: It's a pink color makeup base that does really help brighten my complexion. I love how it smell too, light floral scent. It apply smoothly and doesn't leave any greasy feeling. 

Even through it doesn't claim oil-controll effect but I found it help my makeup last longer.
I still look fresh at the end of the day. Overall I'm impressed with this product and would consider buying this again in the future. 

The only down side I found is it doesn't contain sunscreen effect which is my everyday essential, so I have to apply sunscreen after applying this primer.

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.
