Lioele Triple Solution BB Cream (SPF30/PA++) (50ml) Review

Finally I received my Lioele Triple Solution BB Cream (SPF30/PA++) (50ml)



Here is my un-make uped face....it's been pretty clear now.




The bb cream on my hand.  The color is definitely more yellow than the others I have tried.




And the end result, but with only bb cream and translucent powder on. :)



Coverage:  full
Texture: creamy
Shade: medium
Tint: yellow undertone
Fragrance: strong, but nice
Oil-Control: medium
Dewy or Matte (finish): matte
Overall comments:  I chose this bb cream because of the shade.  It goes really well and I do not have to use any colored powder with it.  One thing that annoys me is the functionality of the pump.  It is hard to use.

Dr. Jart Black Label Detox Healing BB Cream Review

Today I used my mom's bb cream.


She uses it because she has hyper-pigmentation on her cheeks, and this bb cream can soften the condition by lightening the skin.  


Other bb creams have skin whitener, but she needed a bb cream that had full coverage and was made for slightly darker skin.



This bb cream was dark on my skin at first, but within five minutes, it matched my natural shade.  I didn't even need to use mineral powder to make it more "yellow" like how I do with Missha and Thefaceshop.


I simply used a transparent powder to set the bb cream.



Ok! Yes, now I'm ready to go to church.

Now for the vital information...



Coverage:  full
Texture: thick and creamy
Shade: medium-dark
Tint: beige undertone
Fragrance: very faint fragrance that is pleasant
Oil-Control: good
Dewy or Matte (finish): matte
Overall comments:  It is very thick to use as a foundation, but if you just cover spots up on your face, it is amazing.  I don't use foundation anymore, I just use this to conceal acne scars, and it works wonders.  The coverage is perfect and it stayed all day.

Missha M Perfect Cover B.B. Cream SPF No. 23 Natural Beige 42 PA+++ Review

So, I've had this since February...


It lasted me quite a while.  

No make up. Ugh.

The shade is a little pink-grey.  I would say this would work better for a darker skin than mine.

With it blended into my skin.

With full make up on. 

Coverage:  full
Texture: creamy
Shade: medium-dark
Tint: pinkish undertone
Fragrance: strong, smells like baby products
Oil-Control: medium
Dewy or Matte (finish): dewy
Overall comments:  This is perfect for summer.  The shade was a bit off from my skin though, because I have more of a yellow undertone.  That can be fixed by applying a more yellow tinted powder to set the bb cream.

The Face Shop BB Cream Review

I have been using The Face Shop Arsainte Eco-Therapy bb cream for four months now, and I have found it to be one of the better bb creams that I've tried.




This is what my face looks like before the bb cream.  I have acne scars and uneven skin tone.

Then I apply the bb cream with a sponge.  I use the top of the sponge, and after a use, I cut off the top in a thin slice so I can reuse the sponge.  It really beats cleaning them.


 This bb cream is actually about a shade lighter than my skintone, so it looks strange without powder.

 ...so I apply a mineral foundation that is a bit darker than my skintone.


And the result is pretty good, I would say. 



Coverage:  medium
Texture: creamy
Shade: light
Tint: grey undertone
Fragrance: minor, but pleasant
Oil-Control: medium
Dewy or Matte (finish): matte
Overall comments:  This bb cream is really good for skin lightening.   It goes on lighter than my skin, but I would put a bronzer over top.  After a month and a half of using it, I noticed that even when I had no makeup on, my skin on my face was significantly lighter than the rest of my body.  It got rid of most of my acne scars as well, and never has made me break out.
