For a very long time, I was afraid to buy this BB cream, as the reviews were quite controversial and most of the girls with combination skin weren’t satisfied with the product. My skin is combination too.
So I bought a mini-tube of this BB Cream, because I was still eager to try it.
The mini-version with 20 ml was packaged in a little box with the product information. The tube itself is maroon and cute, with a silver screw cap.
The full-size tube is equipped with a dispenser. This one has a thin nozzle.21 Light Beige is pretty light without any undertones. It matches my skin pretty good, without making my skin appear as though it has a different shade than my neck.
My skin:
- combination
- dehydrated
- my T-Zone doesn’t remain matte for more than 3 hours.
- prone to dryness and flakiness
- I have a few blind pimples on my jaw, which appear during my period
- blackheads and pores than tend to clogging
- blood vessels on the bridge of my nose and my cheekbones
My biggest problem is my T-zone, which starts shining if there is any dense foundation applied. With this BB Cream, however, my face starts shining in 5 hours after application, and the problem is easy to solve with blotting papers. The BB cream doesn’t wear off even from my nose.
The BB cream can make all the flaky spots stand out, if there are any. But if you prepare your skin with any moisturizing cream or serum, it’s easy to avoid this.
The BB cream can cover blood vessels and redness. Personally I don’t even need a concealer. Of course, the BB cream won’t be of help for those with extra-problem skin and many breakouts, but one has to face reality and get a few dense concealers or foundations.
I didn’t have any negative reactions during the use of this BB cream. No clogged pores, no breakouts, and no dry skin.
I can also note that the BB cream is well blendable and economical.
It looks natural without a mask effect and cakiness.
There are many shades in the line, which is a pretty rare case when we’re speaking about Korean BB creams. So any girl will be able to find a matching tone.
The BB cream can be removed with micellar water or cleansing oil.
It has a light scent, which I like. The formula is soft and creamy, and seems to melt on my skin.
It doesn’t settle into pores or wrinkles.
Before (redness on the cheekbones and blood vessels on the cheeks and nose)
After
This BB cream will suit those with normal or combination skin. It will look too dewy on oily skin, though, because this BB cream gives a natural shine. It will also match dry skin without flaky spots.
