CONS:
* not available locally. If you want to buy one, try Ebay or Multiply shops.
* available in only 1 shade and fits NC20-35 skintones IMO.
* oil control is so-so, after 3 hours my t-zone starts to look shiny (when used without primer).
* has a greyish undertone (see side by side pics with Dr. Jart)
* oxidizes during the day
TIPS:
* After washing your face, apply right after skincare products.
* For oily skin, apply primer prior to BB cream application. Set with loose powder/pressed powder with good oil control.
* To avoid looking cakey, blot your face first using oil absorbing sheets before applying powder.
* Please remove all traces of BB cream/makeup before going to bed to avoid clogging your pores.
I RECOMMEND THIS TO:
Ladies with dry-normal skin that needs minimal coverage.
OVERALL:
Okay so this is the 9th BB cream that I've tried. I wish the staying power is good and the shade is kinda lighter coz I'm acidic, but that can be fixed using a good primer and a lighter shade of powder.
My all time favorite is Dr. Jart Silver Label because of its coverage and staying power. I even asked my bro in law who's based in Hongkong to buy a back-up for me coz its much cheaper there. Will post swatches of all my BB creams soon (I alternate using Missha Perfect cover #13, Purederm Magic BB cream, Skin79 and Dr. Jart Silver label).

Ahh I got samples of these when I hoarded Skin 79 VIP Gold during my last Korea trip ! I think I've tried this once and not that impressed kaya I did not use further :)
Hey Kim! I've been looking for the perfect BB cream but they all seem to make me break out :( My skin's too oily... I wonder if you have a brand you can recommend for me try ;) TIA!
You are lucky this one worked for you. At the moment I'm really struggling to make it look ok on my skin. It looks odd and super heavy.
I'm still testing it so we'll see.

I wanted to try other BB Creams, but ever since the first BB cream (Purebeauty) I tried gave me breakouts, I'm scared to try other BB Creams na.
I've been wanting to try this, but I also don't really want a sheer foundation. Medium to full coverage is definitely my favorite type!
i've tried this one too but i like the gold version better..
oh, i prefer bb creams that are available locally! but thanks for sharing :) i haven't tried skin79
I know this might be a silly question but is BB Cream for everyone? I'm hispanic/italian/white and I've always been facinated with BB Creams.
i agree with what you said. :) i tried this before and it does produce a greyish cast. >.<"
I've heard so many good things on it, but my skin is a tad to dark for it
This BB cream looks amazing, thanks for the great review , please follow back Britters89.blogspot.com
Thanks for the review. I really want to try this BB cream out but I could only find it only on online stores.
i was hoping it doesn't have whitening properties :(. but i also love the hot pink color of the bottle.
very curious about this product. baka try ko rin :D
I am really looking for a good bb cream for me, i just hope this one will work for me. THanks for teh review sis. Btw i tagged you on my post, hope you like it.
huuuuu.... if you're not satisfied with the product you should give it to meeeee >___>
Lol, this helped me with my decision if I should buy this or not thank yuuu
This bb cream is too dark for me, and it has that greyish tint most bb cream has. Not good. :(
And the undertone is pink... Very impractical as majority faces has yellow undertones.
Just be aware not to use this if you are going to use flash photography. You'll look like a ghost with a white face due to the spf in most bb creams. True experience.

Thank you for posting a picture of the ingredients. I was really considering buying this foundation.... And then realized its full of parabens, and toxic metals (aluminum hydroxide is not something i want in my body not from my deodorant let alone my foundation)
