I am on the look out for a HG BB cream for myself. Is there one of these that would be good for dry acne prone skin? Also are any long lasting and don't transfer?
i do agree people with fair(white) skin is hard to find suitable BB cream. I'm asian but i have very fair skin the same as your's, i have tried a couple BB cream, result is good but not up to pefection. I think the word your trying to said is 'flawless' asian love to have that natural look like you did not have much makeup on :)
Etude house's BB cream magic has 2 available products; the refreshing and Moisturizing. I'm currently using the refreshing one and i guarantee you it will give you a natural dewy look. i recommend the refreshing one to those oily type skin like me, and moisturizing to the dry types.
the language on the back of your products is korean (hangul) haha^_^ and yeah, some BB creams come in shiny, and some come in Matte... and sometimes they dont even give you a heads up on the packaging on if it is shiny or matte :P
there is also skin 79 . the teenage version is not as covering but the hot pink/gold has a good coverage+ skintone. im as white as you are and most of them oxidize pretty well on me. they also stay for a whole day unlike the tinted moisturizer . my proof is that i was stuck out in the rain one day and all my make up was deleted except for the bb cream foundation. 1 last comment is regarding to the whitening effect- they DO want the skin to look more white . it has a long history. of course
@malvadaDiabolica you cant make your skin whiter than it is , but you can try anything with make up. now the whole whitening stuff is deeply rooted with the attempt to look more western (rather than like the imperial family that never worked in the fields and got no suntan). if you are white it will match your color if you are darker it will just brighten up your face a little bit.
@pinkiecharm no no don't get me wrong. it just felt like dejavu, one time i was reading it and this time i was hearing it... i didn't mean to mock you or anything. sorry neway.
Thank you for an informative video --- I'm googling the Etude house bb cream one now XP ( thank god there's a store in Canada that sells Korean products) they have a site online and they deliver overseas let me know if you want their website ^^
hey there ! i'm korean and we're OBSESSED with whitening and guys put BB cream too . if your skin is not fair or shiny enough then i guess you are considered not pretty here , thats why BB cream comes in one standard coulour i guess . in my opinion skin food is the best too but etude is more popular here .
A lot of bb creams are light so I don't know what ones you picked but they tend to fit my very milky skin either perfectly or make it look even lighter.
I use Skin Food Agave Cactus Sun BB Cream... It's soooo perfect for me! I have yet to try the Etude version. I'm waiting for my SF to run out so that I can buy it. I'm sooo in love with Etude House! I'm so glad we have both Skin Food and Etude House here.
I CANT BUY THE BB CREAM BECAUSE IS SO DIFFICULT TO GET, BUT I WANNA KNOW IF THERE IS ANY FOUNDATION THAT LOOKS NATURAL , I THOUGHT ABOUT BUYING ONE OF CLINIQUE.. PLEASE ADVISE ME.. IM VERY WHITE.. JUST AS YOU
They're making ones for European skintones, I'm from England and British and they're putting them in garnier moisturisers and stuff, I ordered one today.
Before someone asks you to review the Dr Jart Water Fuse...let me warn you that it may be too dark and yellow toned for you. :( It only suits me with a light tan.
You probably already know this but Smashbox has started selling a bb cream on QVC.
I got my first BB Cream today from South Korea called Super Magic BB Cream. I love it. It looked gray when it first came out of the tube but then became my skin color by the time I finished applying it. It makes me glow-y in a good way.
I'm from Asia. And I use BB cream and your video is so clear about it. I prefer more on BB cream because it does lighten my face than using foundation.
Skin 79 is a famous one that has a website for the US. It's apparently the company behind creating it, lancome also has a BB cream with whitening and high SPF properties if you're interested! Clinique and Vichy also have their versions.
i think the reason why u r having trouble with the coloring is because of the fact that bb creams are aimed towards asian skin tones. Asians have a yellow undertone and have light to beige skin.
@BlackRoses525 Thank you and yes, I did mention that in the video. Lately I have seen a handful of BB Creams with a more pink base so that's good news. :)
@pinkiecharm Skinfood makes a bb cream that is more pink/peach toned, it's called something to do with peach in the name. It's great- very fair coloured (the first shade - shade 1) and does not oxidize
We have just as much the tendency to have pink undertones such as myself, I haven't been able to find one that suits me although I'm in asia where they are everywhere. :(
(just a reminder, there are plenty of asians with darker skin ..indians, filipinos, malays, even my chinese friends with tan skin. It's unfortunate that you can't find anything beyond light medium shades at drug stores here)
You look glowing, really naturally pretty whatever eye makeup you have on really suits you you just look really healthy. I have the skin 79 bb cream I found it has helped with diminishing scars from spots in matter of a week but, the color does not suit my naturally tanned skin
@aliadri22 hi,i am not irene,but tried to answer if you don't mind..i have skin food salmon concealer. the color is nice,salmon, great to corect the blue undereye circle, the teksture is nice,because it is a gel formula.but they lack of pigmentation,for my severe dark circle, i need at least 3layer of it..or,for not-too-crazy-layering-morning, just wear a regular concealer, than layer it with this salmon concealer..hope that help
haha youre funny when you said youd probably be clear i laughed :) im asian and i dont think i want to try bb creams because i want to be tanner! lol i guess i have the american ideals being american... plus im pretty pale dont need to be more pale
How do you think any of the BB creams will hold up to a lot of sweat? I usually wear full coverage foundation even in the summer and with a helmet on when I'm training horses in saddle, sweat causes any foundation on my forehead to transfer onto my helmet. I get the same feeling without the transfer of product by just doing everyday barn duties. Or do you think a tinted moisturizer would be better?
You must try the Missha Perfect Cover BB cream. They make a really pale one called #13 Milky Beige, which is a teeny bit lighter than NC15 and it doesn't have major pink undertones. The only thing that's really off putting about the Perfect Cover is that it looks grey coming out of the tube (from the so called whitening properties; it doesn't whiten at all lol) and contains mineral oil. I love BB creams and wear them pretty much everyday. Lioele also make a really nice BB cream.
it's funny how you didn't run into skin79 bb creams :) I've just purchased one (VIP Gold, for dryer skins), I really love it. and prefer I it to tinted moisturizers, it feels more soft and has more of a natural finish - the tinted moisturizers end up drying on my skin and looking like I have patches of pigment :S... unlike you, I'm medium toned and the bb cream looks a bit too light on me. and somewhat ashy. but it dries a bit darker and cancels the redness :) great and honest review, as always.
@SassyBanjo she compared it to a tinted. moust. tho and not to foundation. fondations give more coverage than BB creams. tinted moust. have skincare benefits.
i have same issues with BB creams. They dry out my skin and even then i got so many breaks out due them even tho i dont have a senstive skin. I think ppl overhyping them. a tinted mouster. does same job and even better. BB creams are just popular in korea cause celebreties advertise them. yet 99% of them had a plastic surgery and go 3 times a day into salons, thats why they look so flawless, and not cause of this poo
Thank you for this video! I keep hearing about BB creams more and more but so far I didn't research them more because it sounded like a "too good to be true" product and I was/ still am wondering if it's not for a reason that they were originally a medication thing for specific temporary and punctual use, and not so much intended for regular all-over use.. Definitely interesting and tempting though!
Do they generally have or not have silicone in them? Do they generally have chemical or natural sunscreens? I have sensitivities to silicone. Besides non English on labels, do most have ingredients lists on them? Thank you.
@sserena13 Honestly, it's hard to answer your questions because 99% of the text on these BB Creams is in a language I can't read. I don't know about the silicone and I would assume the sunscreen is chemical but again, I can't say for sure about either because I can't read the labels. Of the ones I have only three of them seem to have an ingredients list but again, I can't say for sure because of the language issue.
@sserena13 They generally don't, but some do. Natural sunscreens, usually. Some have english lables, some don't you can usually find a translation, but always double check.
@sserena13 a lot of bbcream have silicon and mineral oil in them.and some of them have sunscreen
i have tried 'em from-brand-to-brand,and sick on how i break out from them because of their silicone and sunscreen.even from the bbc that claim 'healing blemishes',i break out like crazy.only dodo bbc,that don't have any healing properties and sunscreen that didn't break me out,but the oil control sucks,and it oxidize like crazy
personally i prefer foundation after my 2-crazy-bbc-years
@sserena13 I don't believe the BB creams generally have silicone in them. The BB creams that say their suppose to make your skin firm and restore elasticity may have silicone in it. You should go to Colorful Circle's website and read up on the different varieties of BB cream they sell to see which one is best for you!
@AkashaDaniBabe1 Most BB Creams I have tried do have silicone in them/are silicone based...Missha, Etude House, Skin79, Mentholatum, Hera...quite a lot.
Respond to this video... You should check out Colorful Circle.com they sell BB cream and they have reasonable prices. My first time on their site I was testing out the shopping cart. Say for example I bought something that was $20 and I look down further and it says with tax its $40,I was hoping that it wouldn't apply to me since I'm not in that country. Whew, it didn't I was so relieved! I was thinking, lol It's gonna stay right where it is I'm not paying that much on taxes!
Thanks for the great review! Boscia is well known since it's available at Sephora, and they just came out with a BB cream at boscia.net today, literally! I know the BB creams don't work as well for you as tinted moisturizers, but if you end up seeing it in the future at Sephora, would you mind reviewing it? Thanks!
I never knew what the fuss was about with whitening products for women of color anyway! It's the same concept as light skinned women who use tanning products or go tanning.
this is my favorite video! not only are you talking about bb creams which i like because i an asian and i use it =p but also because i feel that your skin looks so amazing here with the bb cream on! =] you look so fresh and flawless.
Anyways. I always get my BB creams off amazon. FYI, there's a set of 4 that will let you try some BB creams if you're new to them its like $14 - $15 but the shipping's free so yay :D
Great review as always! I was wondering if you have every tried the Kiehl's Ultra Facial Tinted Moisturizer being that you like Kiehl's and are the queen on tinted moisturizers lol. For $25 you get 2.5 oz.'s of product which to me seems like a steal compared to other department store brand TM's!
i love BB creams they are easy to use and i don't have to do anything with my skin other than moisturize, bb cream and blush. my skin is flawless and it never breaks me out. it doesn't dry cakey, or settle into my skin (like mac face products). the colour select is sparse for sure, but they are blendable to match most skintones. i respect your opinion, but my experience with them has been fabulous. i use the Missha Bb cream, and the skin food BB mushroom bb cream.
If anyones looking for a darker BB cream, check out L'egere White Multi Blemish Balm ^^ I think they have a newer one? I hear its good for NC 35 which is good :) also try Hanskin Super + bb cream
Lol "im gona b clear", anyways yes thats right we asians want to be lighter, and ya'll wants to be tanner :) hehe, its just natural fpr humans. Also im so scared to try this cuz im very prone to acne, but what can u sugest to me for covering my acne? Any product. Any brand. Tnx
@emptyshoppingbag hi (: im very acne proned myself and i am asian. I tried the Misscha BB cream and i am IN LOVE with it. it hasnt once broke me out (: it even helped with my acne. but of course everyone has different body chemistry so i cant say it will work the same for you. but it is light so it probably wont break you out (: i hope this is somewhat helpful lol
The "dark-looking" ones probably ended up working on you because a lot of BB creams come out of the tube sort of dark and blend on lighter, but IDK. I'm really white and I still don't know if I should buy one, but I really want to!!
@laracroftroxmysox You should try one out :) They usually oxidize slightly even if they look ghaastly when applying! It self adjusts in 10 minutes or so
@simplicityx0 I'm still trying to find one that's lighter than NC15. I've looked at many swatches and I think I found one by L'egere, but it's not REALLY a BB cream. XD Oh, well!
@laracroftroxmysox ooh you are so pale ! LOL :P I have one for you ! Its skin foods bb creams in shade 1 :) ihave some other reocommendations too ! HEHE
@laracroftroxmysox you can get some really really pale ones if you look. Women over there like to look paler and so there are many out there that are really really pale. have a shop around and there should be one to suit your skintone, ebay may be a good place to look for swatches/sample sizes.
@laracroftroxmysox Hi, you should go to a website that sells BB cream and read up on it. I went to Colorful Circle's site and read what the BB creams do and they are detailed they show you what it is, what it does, how to apply it, how it looks in certain skin and which skin tone it goes best with. Some of them have tints those are the ones that act as a foundation the ones without the tint act as a primer!
After having lived in South Korea (& being a cosmetic junkie), I often went to Skin Food. The BB creams were about 8$ USD in the store. Must've been the import/exporting costs?
From my first-hand experience, BB Creams come in 2 shades (typically). 01 and 02. 01 tends to be the "brightening" shade and "02" tends to be the "foundation" shade.
As an extremely fair-skinned girl, I find BB creams are wonderful and luminous. I actually haven't worn foundation in over 2 years.
Asian women want their skin to look lighter because only "farmers" get tan; "rich" people can stay inside. It's just like how fuller figures were appreciated in Rome--only the wealthy could eat enough. I tend not to wear face products other than setting powder, but I enjoyed this video :)
@aliceinvunderland It was in the Renaissance period and not during Ancient History that fuller figures were considered the symbol of beauty. Get your facts.
I love your reviews! And it's great that you get to know a product before you talk about it. I think you reviewed the BB creams very well! I have the red tube Missha and I'm waiting for the L'Egere white multi to come in the mail. I wish my skin is lighter so I don't have to pack on the bronzer when I use BB creams(I am asian). So I only use it in the winter when I'm a bit paler and my skin is extra dry. Anyway, thanks for the great review!
So sticking with the Tinted Moisturizer, what is your Most favorite one out of Laura Mercier Oil Free, Tarte, Stila, & Smash Box???? Those are the 4 I am trying to decide out of?
I use the Super Beblesh Balm BB cream from Skin 79 (pink one). Its the best product I've ever found for my skin. I dare say I will never go back to regular foundation ever again. I love it and what it does for my skin. Thanks for the review! Hugs, Summer :)
@cjx3pooh Yes, I'm aware of that. My point was that because these tend to run dark and with a strong yellow or brown-ish tint (maybe I didn't mention that, I don't recall) those who ARE Caucasian and extremely fair (like me) may feel this isn't something they can wear.
First off, Thank you soooo much for doing this video. I just bought my first BB cream about two weeks ago. It's ok, but not too impressed. Maybe I am not doing something right. I do have a question, a lot of ppl say you need to let it sink in for about 5- 10 minutes. So should I wait that time and then apply blush etc or does it matter? Thanks in advance! ;-)
What kind of skin type should you have to use BB creams? Because I have heard most of them are very moisturizing which is bad for my skin type because I have very oily skin.
I prefer my Missha Perfect M BB Cream in #13 to my MUFE HD foundation. Seriously. It gives great coverage, and the #13 shade is perfect for my super fair skin tone. It's SPF 40, and evens out my skin tone. I swear it's also helped my breakouts. My skin has markedly improved since I started using it. You can find it on ebay for less than $15... I'd recommend checking it out.
You should try the Laneige Snow BB! They already have a great reputation in Korea and in the states for their great higher end skin care line. (Etude House for example is considered to be cheaper skincare.) It's a little bit lighter than normal BB creams. It blends very well and gives a bit more coverage than the Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer but less than the original Missha BB Cream. The Snow BB has SPF 40 PA+++ but give less white cast than many many other BB's with even lower SPF's.
I tried the Dr. Jart BB cream and it made me look greasy. When my boyfriend asked why I was sweating (when I was actually freezing), I immediately started looking for the receipt.
Thank you for doing this video! I am so interested. Which one of your selection would you say is the "lightest" or "fairest" shade? (I'm going for a porcelain doll kind of look). THANK YOU!!!
I wear the Misha(red tube) one every day, I love that it's not too heavy but it completely covers my redness. I do find it quite difficult to wear a blush over it, the blush doesn't show at all, which I guess makes sense since it cancels the redness so well. lol I have combo/oily skin and it controls my oil really well.
I just Bought Dr.Jart BB creams at sephora, i got the premium and the water fuse, and i ADORE them, i use the water fuse as a base for the premium and its awesomeeeee. You should check it out.
you sure are right when you say its mostly in the Asia area i goggled what a BB cream would look like and all i got were Asian looking people. Theres nothing wrong with Asians they just are the spokes person for this BB cream at the moment
I am on the look out for a HG BB cream for myself. Is there one of these that would be good for dry acne prone skin? Also are any long lasting and don't transfer?

@SassyBanjo she compared it to a tinted. moust. tho and not to foundation. fondations give more coverage than BB creams. tinted moust. have skincare benefits.

i have same issues with BB creams. They dry out my skin and even then i got so many breaks out due them even tho i dont have a senstive skin. I think ppl overhyping them. a tinted mouster. does same job and even better. BB creams are just popular in korea cause celebreties advertise them. yet 99% of them had a plastic surgery and go 3 times a day into salons, thats why they look so flawless, and not cause of this poo

Thank you for this video! I keep hearing about BB creams more and more but so far I didn't research them more because it sounded like a "too good to be true" product and I was/ still am wondering if it's not for a reason that they were originally a medication thing for specific temporary and punctual use, and not so much intended for regular all-over use.. Definitely interesting and tempting though!

Do they generally have or not have silicone in them? Do they generally have chemical or natural sunscreens? I have sensitivities to silicone. Besides non English on labels, do most have ingredients lists on them? Thank you.
sserena13 9 months ago
@sserena13 Honestly, it's hard to answer your questions because 99% of the text on these BB Creams is in a language I can't read. I don't know about the silicone and I would assume the sunscreen is chemical but again, I can't say for sure about either because I can't read the labels. Of the ones I have only three of them seem to have an ingredients list but again, I can't say for sure because of the language issue.

@sserena13 They generally don't, but some do. Natural sunscreens, usually. Some have english lables, some don't you can usually find a translation, but always double check.

@sserena13 a lot of bbcream have silicon and mineral oil in them.and some of them have sunscreen
i have tried 'em from-brand-to-brand,and sick on how i break out from them because of their silicone and sunscreen.even from the bbc that claim 'healing blemishes',i break out like crazy.only dodo bbc,that don't have any healing properties and sunscreen that didn't break me out,but the oil control sucks,and it oxidize like crazy
personally i prefer foundation after my 2-crazy-bbc-years
hope that help

@sserena13 I don't believe the BB creams generally have silicone in them. The BB creams that say their suppose to make your skin firm and restore elasticity may have silicone in it. You should go to Colorful Circle's website and read up on the different varieties of BB cream they sell to see which one is best for you!

@AkashaDaniBabe1 Most BB Creams I have tried do have silicone in them/are silicone based...Missha, Etude House, Skin79, Mentholatum, Hera...quite a lot.
Adrianaaa2605 7 months ago
@AkashaDaniBabe1 Oh, and the L'egere, Dr Jart and Skinfood have silicones too. :)
Adrianaaa2605 7 months ago
Respond to this video... You should check out Colorful Circle.com they sell BB cream and they have reasonable prices. My first time on their site I was testing out the shopping cart. Say for example I bought something that was $20 and I look down further and it says with tax its $40,I was hoping that it wouldn't apply to me since I'm not in that country. Whew, it didn't I was so relieved! I was thinking, lol It's gonna stay right where it is I'm not paying that much on taxes!

Thanks for the great review! Boscia is well known since it's available at Sephora, and they just came out with a BB cream at boscia.net today, literally! I know the BB creams don't work as well for you as tinted moisturizers, but if you end up seeing it in the future at Sephora, would you mind reviewing it? Thanks!

andersjj1966 9 months ago
i love BB creams they are easy to use and i don't have to do anything with my skin other than moisturize, bb cream and blush. my skin is flawless and it never breaks me out. it doesn't dry cakey, or settle into my skin (like mac face products). the colour select is sparse for sure, but they are blendable to match most skintones. i respect your opinion, but my experience with them has been fabulous. i use the Missha Bb cream, and the skin food BB mushroom bb cream.

The "dark-looking" ones probably ended up working on you because a lot of BB creams come out of the tube sort of dark and blend on lighter, but IDK. I'm really white and I still don't know if I should buy one, but I really want to!!

@laracroftroxmysox you can get some really really pale ones if you look. Women over there like to look paler and so there are many out there that are really really pale. have a shop around and there should be one to suit your skintone, ebay may be a good place to look for swatches/sample sizes.

@laracroftroxmysox Try Skinfood Mushroom Multi BB Cream. Its Korean, but It works really well for people who are super pale. Works for me at least.
Ladyofdeath777 9 months ago
@laracroftroxmysox Hi, you should go to a website that sells BB cream and read up on it. I went to Colorful Circle's site and read what the BB creams do and they are detailed they show you what it is, what it does, how to apply it, how it looks in certain skin and which skin tone it goes best with. Some of them have tints those are the ones that act as a foundation the ones without the tint act as a primer!

@AkashaDaniBabe1 Thank you for the suggestion! :D
laracroftroxmysox 7 months ago
After having lived in South Korea (& being a cosmetic junkie), I often went to Skin Food. The BB creams were about 8$ USD in the store. Must've been the import/exporting costs?
From my first-hand experience, BB Creams come in 2 shades (typically). 01 and 02. 01 tends to be the "brightening" shade and "02" tends to be the "foundation" shade.
As an extremely fair-skinned girl, I find BB creams are wonderful and luminous. I actually haven't worn foundation in over 2 years.
To each his own. ^_^

Asian women want their skin to look lighter because only "farmers" get tan; "rich" people can stay inside. It's just like how fuller figures were appreciated in Rome--only the wealthy could eat enough. I tend not to wear face products other than setting powder, but I enjoyed this video :)

I love your reviews! And it's great that you get to know a product before you talk about it. I think you reviewed the BB creams very well! I have the red tube Missha and I'm waiting for the L'Egere white multi to come in the mail. I wish my skin is lighter so I don't have to pack on the bronzer when I use BB creams(I am asian). So I only use it in the winter when I'm a bit paler and my skin is extra dry. Anyway, thanks for the great review!

cjx3pooh 9 months ago
@cjx3pooh Yes, I'm aware of that. My point was that because these tend to run dark and with a strong yellow or brown-ish tint (maybe I didn't mention that, I don't recall) those who ARE Caucasian and extremely fair (like me) may feel this isn't something they can wear.
pinkiecharm 9 months ago
First off, Thank you soooo much for doing this video. I just bought my first BB cream about two weeks ago. It's ok, but not too impressed. Maybe I am not doing something right. I do have a question, a lot of ppl say you need to let it sink in for about 5- 10 minutes. So should I wait that time and then apply blush etc or does it matter? Thanks in advance! ;-)
TheHottie5576 9 months ago
What kind of skin type should you have to use BB creams? Because I have heard most of them are very moisturizing which is bad for my skin type because I have very oily skin.
JustJylene 9 months ago
I prefer my Missha Perfect M BB Cream in #13 to my MUFE HD foundation. Seriously. It gives great coverage, and the #13 shade is perfect for my super fair skin tone. It's SPF 40, and evens out my skin tone. I swear it's also helped my breakouts. My skin has markedly improved since I started using it. You can find it on ebay for less than $15... I'd recommend checking it out.
lexithestrange 9 months ago
You should try the Laneige Snow BB! They already have a great reputation in Korea and in the states for their great higher end skin care line. (Etude House for example is considered to be cheaper skincare.) It's a little bit lighter than normal BB creams. It blends very well and gives a bit more coverage than the Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer but less than the original Missha BB Cream. The Snow BB has SPF 40 PA+++ but give less white cast than many many other BB's with even lower SPF's.

I wear the Misha(red tube) one every day, I love that it's not too heavy but it completely covers my redness. I do find it quite difficult to wear a blush over it, the blush doesn't show at all, which I guess makes sense since it cancels the redness so well. lol I have combo/oily skin and it controls my oil really well.
