Ecorre BB cream

I've been stick to Missha for awhile because I really like its result and lasting power, but some rave in the net that one BB cream was better and affordable in the market. I'm not easy to convince unless I has really that magical effect on me, so I bought 3 sample for only 100php some site was 75php, I gave it a try!

The first try was not that really impressive, sheer coverage and one shade only. Days come by I noticed that my skin become supple and it really helps to heal my blemishes, no breakouts, my pores become finer and became fairer. It last for about 3-5hrs, not oily, light and easy to blend. It doesn't have oxidation effect that makes you darker when exposed to sun.

SkinFood Agave Cactus BB cream

Hello ladies! How's your weekend? Anyway, thank you for some luvin' comments from my last post and I really feel relieved when I realized that I'm not alone. Thank you sooo much!



Skin Food Agave Cactus BB cream:
- has SPF 36PA+++
- Comes in a squeeze tube with an attached sponge (detachable) for application
- Oil free makeup and skincare 2-in-1 with sunscreen
- Makes skin feel cool, hydrated and soft yet offers good coverage
- Acts as a foundation that covers blemishes and evens out skin tone
- Complexion looks naturally air-brushed, clear and fresh after application
- Can be applied alone conveniently for a dewy look or dust with some loose powder for a matte look
- Can also be applied as a foundation or as a makeup base before your foundation


I finally finish my last sample of Skin Food Agave Cactus BB cream. Honestly, I wanted to skip this product because of the smell is like ointment for anti-dizziness which reminded me of my grandmother. Unlike Missha BB cream, Skin Food Agave's coverage was really unimpressive, I can see clearly my blemishes and big pores. Staying power is not good also, after 2 hours my skin became OILY like a greased pan you can cook an egg on my face already. True enough this BB cream replenish moisture on my face because it replenished moisture on my skin near my lips! It's flaky like my dried up saliva when I woke up every morning! haha! I really hate it! So after using this BB cream those flakiness has gone for good I hope so.I highly recommend this BB Cream for those who suffer from dehydrated skin but not suitable for oily skin nor combi!

shade #1 fits NC25.

not good coverage

sorry for the fugly pic ^_^


I gave justice to this product, no flakiness near my lips
Likes:

Dislikes:

  • oil control up to 2hrs
  • thick texture
  • hard to blend

Missha BB Cream Review

As I promised you ladies, after I finished all my Missha samples I'm doing my own review about it. Yeah, a lot of reviews you can actually read maybe good or bad, why I don't try it to myself. A lot of BB creams around the globe but have you actually know what is BB cream?

So what is BB cream really was?

BB Cream is pretty much the end all of foundation, concealer, moisturizer, etc....It's a combined product that eliminates many products from your daily makeup routine and not only simplifies foundation but also offers key ingredients that we all look for in makeup and skin care.

BB Creams are highly moisturizing, contain SPF, have acne fighting and anti-aging ingredients, plus conceal and lay a foundation for your other makeup.

What BB Cream Eliminates from your daily routine:

* Moisturizer

BB Creams are so highly moisturizing you may or may not wish to apply a moisturizer prior to using!

* SPF

BB Creams contain doses of 25+ SPF so you don't need an extra SPF product to protect your skin from harmless sun rays!

* Acne Treatments, Lotions, Etc...

BB Creams contain active ingredients for fighting off problem areas!

* Anti-Aging Lotions, Potions, Etc...

BB Creams contain anti-aging ingredients to prevent wrinkles and also treat any fine lines you may already have!

* Concealer

BB Creams act as a concealer for concealing under eye circles, baggage, etc...It also concealsr acne, blemishes, red areas, etc...

* Foundation

BB Creams act as a foundation for prepping the skin for makeup and creating a flawless finish to skin!

* Whitening Lotions, Fluids, Etc....

BB Creams contain whitening agents to lighten the skin!


Wooow! Its really a nirvana for us beauty junkies!



So, after finishing 5 samples of Missha Perfect Cover BB cream, I must say that I really like the results. As if I'm putting a magic cream on my face. I used Missha no. 23 since it's more likely to my skin tone. It hides blemishes and big pores, I even don't use my concealer on my eye bags. Somehow, I noticed that my face turned half darker when exposed to sun about 2 hours.


no. 23 up
no. 21 below


see how it hides my blemishes

Missha BB cream never give me a oily face but a dewy fresh look even after 4hrs!
Look the picture above.

Likes:
  • smells good
  • long lasting power
  • easy to blend
  • 42 SPF
  • Good Coverage
Dislikes:
  • Pricey
  • just 2 shades 21 and 23
  • Oxidation effectively turned my face a shade or half darker when exposed to sun.
