  • Where can you buy the Misha brand?

  • @creativeyoungmama you can open missha.net :)

  • Hi jen, the vid is really helpful. Btw i need to ask a question. My friends and I are really confused abt choosing the right BB cream. I'm considering Skin79 hotpink BB cream because I saw a few of your videos using that bb cream, but the shade on my face is more likely the same your hand. Im from indonesia so its more likely summer all the time..thanks i hope u can get back on me ^^

  • in the summer do you prefer lighter or darker foundation in the summer

  • Very helpful videos, thanks!

  • Jen, you're voice is so nice, soothing :)

  • Hi! i love your video and i have a question. I have a lil bit of eczema on my face and im about the blonde girls shade. Im looking for something with good coverage for dry skin cus my skin gets a lil flaky. Do you have any suggestions? I REALLY want to try a bb cream!

  • I totally agree! I love the Blondie and wish she had her own video!

  • I'm very wary of fake BB creams vs. real ones ... >_<; I just bought a Missha BB Cream for $15. but the foundation comes out of the tube messy, not into a perfect circle ... how is yours?

    Also, does the back of your BB Cream have a black or a white tab at the top of the backside? Or does that not matter..? :s I'm trying to look for differences..

  • @chaoslavawolf don't buy bb creams in ebay or sites like that. try sasa or imomoko. you can trust these websites.

  • I really want to try BB cream! I have heard so many wonderful things about it! Thanks for the review VERY helpful :)

  • Hannah kinda bugs me... :(

  • what does BB cream do? I have light skin as well.. which one would be best?

  • Whoa. I notice im color blind.

  • im scared to try these out because they look so gray

  • Thanks for the review! You guys are amazing!! (I also read the blog entry)

    Based on this I just bought my first BB cream 5 minutes ago. Wanted to buy one long ago but I never knew which one I should take. I'm a bit sad that I didn't find this review earlier.

  • What is the lightest BB Cream you've ever found? Just anyone. I'm actually lighter than Hannah, I'm around an NC 10-ish, and I was just wondering if anyone had miraculously come across a REALLY PALE BB Cream... Thanks guys <3

  • @BATOOST I think one of the lightest out there would be Missha Perfect Cover No. 13. It's like really white haha

  • @naylonlove Thank you! I'll try it out~ ^^

  • my skin tone is like hannahs... :)

  • Hi Jen Im Asian like you too LOL And my skin kind like dark then u bit like olive what color do u think Skin79 Hot Pink Super Plus Beblesh Balm is work for me?Thnx>>)))

  • I'm caucasian and I want the WHITEST skin possible, my skin is already extremely white, which bb cream do you suggest? I still can NOT decide after months of looking... please help!! :)

  • Do you know if BB creams are made in African American colors?

  • what is Hannah's skin color??

  • does hannah have a youtube ?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

    

  • Hey Jen,

    This was super helpful!

    Which one would give more drastic skin lightening: Gold Caviar or Jasmine Water?

    Thank you so much!

  • @frmheadtotoe mac foundations are too dark for me .. would any of these work for me?

  • Glad you had someone as pale as I am swatching the bb creams. :) Very helpful

  • Wow ... all the BB cream turns grey in colour @-@

  • @ILuvMusicz12 Yea, but once you actually spread it around on your face, like Jen said, they oxidize and the colour changes. You have to spread it around though. They are VERY concentrated, as in a little bit goes a really long way, so don't be fooled by the small packaging :3

  • This was super helpful.....Jen you are such a beautiful girl!

  • I just ordered the Missha #23 on ebay... hope it matches my skin like it does to you!

  • please do a a review on the garnier bb cream!?

  • @daniellehalsall what style is to nickel has a review on the garnier bb cream but its a review for boys who have fair skin hes gay though meaning he does more review for girls but you should find it helpful

  • So it's safe to say that BB cream is not for dark skin. I mean I'm a light african american but still.

  • @Allegra1393 BB creams are generally light because it was meant to be marketed for fair skinned Asians. I am Asian myself and I find most of them to be too light for me. I just found out recently that American brands are following the BB cream wagon, so I suggest that you check those out instead since I would have to assume that they would to market to a higher skin color range. I haven't checked them out myself so I'm not sure of the statement, but it's worth a shot.

  • @Allegra1393 I believe Missha made a larger range of colours. You should check out the reviews on the website though to see if it would match your skin undertone :)

  • @Allegra1393 smashbox carrys a bb cream in sephora maybe u wanna go there for shades our color im hispanic a lil bit on the dark side and i found my shade there it comes with 5 properties it moisturizes, spf, something for reducing wrinkles and blemish reduces and i forgot the other one but its a good deal.

  • What's good for a NC/W20ish (maybe a bit lighter)

  • where do you buy bb cream?

  • Is Misscha 31 the darkest BB cream in the market?

  • what would be good for nw20?

  • @unsorted seeds

    Do You know which bb cream fits NW25+dry skin? I was asking already in so many videos but nobody was recommending any.thank You in advance

  • I think it's really great that your friend was in the video! You two are totally different types (skin hair eyes) which helps me compare myself to you and figure my own skin out. Also, I'm assuming your friend doesn't use orange tinted bb creams which are a nightmare for me since I have pale, pinkish skin (like her?). So yeah, really helped!

  • This is so amazingly comprehensive.

    So far my shopping list for saturday is:

    -BRTC Jasmine water

    -Skin 79 Super Plus

    -Missha P.C in #13

  • I can never wear a BB cream without mixing it with my foundation which I bought about 2 shades darker than skin by mistake. I have super tan skin, and I can't find shade that works well with it.

  • Oh my god!!

    BB oxidizes ...

    Does that pose any problem to skin like... aging-affect..

  • Hi, I was wondering which bb cream, if any, you'd recommend for someone who's nc 30-35 with oily skin. What I'm looking for is a bb that is matte, has spf, medium coverage, and helps with acne and acne scars.

    Thank you!

    :]

  • @frmheadtotoe Jen would the Skin79 Hot Pink BB Cream look okay on me? I have skin a bit lighter than yours (in winter) but definitely not as light as Hannah. I was wondering if it would match me!

  • @EtoileBaby I think so! It runs a bit light for me too.

  • Comment removed

  • I was wondering which BB cream would be a good match for NW40 and for NW30. Would the Missha #27 be a good match for the NW40? I was hoping to give a BB cream as a gift for Christmas this year and might look into getting one for myself. Is the Skin79 hot pink too light for NW30 skin? Is it ok that the skin colors are NW and not NC?

  • @UnsortedSeeds BB Creams are very light for an NW

  • @EtoileBaby Well, I think some of the Missha creams do pretty nicely in matching warmer skin tones like NW. I did purchase one for that NW40 recipient, and the cream matched nicely, just a tiny bit off from being perfect. Just gotta stay away from the ones that are more pink, like #21 from Missha :x. I got it as a free gift with my purchase, and while I'm light enough for it, it's just too pink for my more gold-tone skin.

  • I really wanted to get a bb cream but they just look waaaay too dark!! They're so dark on Hannah's hand I can't imagine them working on her face and I'm just as pale if not lighter! :S

  • This is a great video for all the comparisons, but I wish you had shown the bb creams blended in. I've found BB cream to be extremely good at blending to skin colors. The color out of the bottle always looks different when blended in. For people who live near NYC I highly recommend going to Flushing, Queens where you can try the BB creams in person (but I don't recommending buying it there--Amazon/online is much cheaper!)

  • @shojofreshman do u know if you can buy them on8th avenue in brooklyn or canal street? (haha its nice seeing a fellow youtuber from nyc!! :)

  • @sugarbomb22 I'm sorry, I don't know! :( But Flushing is amazing--they have multiple beauty stores all near each other. Let me know if you'd like directions. From Grand Central it is only a 25min ride, and then you can get some of the best Chinese and Korean food for lunch. ^_^

  • @shojofreshman thanks for replying! if you don't mind me asking, where exactly in flushing are these stores? if you had the name of the street or such thatd really help :) thanks again!

  • ARRGH! this is the 5th time where i clicked the screen to let it play and it redirected me to part 1!! TT_TT

  • WOuld the Missha BB cream (#27) suit a guy? I'm asking because of all the facial hair, wouldn't that make it look worse? like greyish?

  • @KofykatKashyap I'm pretty sure they make bb cream for men, so you could try doing some research into that. I can't imagine the bb cream making your beard look darker based on my experience with skin79 and lioele bb creams, but then again I don't have facial hair. xD

  • @shojofreshman i'm choosing for a friend. lol. I'm a girl. tats why i asked.

  • hello can you please help me i'm mac 30 to 35 but i'm not so sure which BB cream to get because i have very oily skin and i wouldn't want the BB cream to make my face more oily and i have freckles and would like to cover them up but with a matte finish this would help me a lot thank you :)

  • @kimikimch I've just ordered the garnier and the maybelline BB cream in the 2nd colour. natural i think it's called. Also the missha 23/27 should match your tone. I'm a 35-40 and the 27 is my colour.

  • @KofykatKashyap thank you so much this will help a lot.

  • @kimikimch glad to help.

  • Could you do a review on the four BB Creams found in Sephora? :) They are Boscia, Clinique, and Dr. Jart.

  • do they have BB cream for tan skin tones?

  • until when is this coupon code available? :)

  • I don't know my MAC shade (I think NC 25ish?). I'm usually the darkest of the light shades or the lightest of the medium with a somewhat yellow undertone. I have NO CLUE what cream I should try. haha I like what the Skin 79 hot pink does, but don't know if it would blend into my skin? Thanks!

  • is there an acual place , were i could go and try them out ?i dont want to buy them online & get the wrong shade.. :\

  • @beautygirl0987 I know there are places in NYC, so I imagine in other large cities there's a chance as well.

  • thanks for the review guys it is the best one i have seen and made things much clearer, as i had no clue which one to buy before i saw your review. thanks.

  • why doesn't your friend just use missha's #13 shade?

  • Which bb cream would you recommend for a guy like me? I'm Japanese and I'm not so light skinned, but I'm not dark.

  • Can you reccomend what kind of bb cream I should use- I am Mac NC10, with yellow undertone. I would also like matte finish since i have oily skin?

  • Can somebody pleeeeeeease tell me where you can get BB creams in Australia, Melbourne?!

  • @MrIluvcandy

    missha.com.au and there is a stocklist of the locations. otherwise get on ebay.

  • @MrIluvcandy People that I know south in Melbourne mentioned to me that they buy it online too because the cost is higher if you do find them around anywhere. Pretty well everyone I know that wears BBcream gets it online.

  • I need help finding one

    all I want out of my BB cream is it to be yellow

    or for olive skin tone

    I change shade in winter so I don't mind if its darker or lighter

    all i want to know is ... Do you know a brand that is the most yellow base as possible thank you

    (or even yellow to green)

  • What would be a good slightly dewy BB Cream for someone with neutral fair skin? (below MAC 15, around Graftobian Porcelain)

  • @Piggy950623 Try the BRTC Jasmine Water bb.

  • @frmheadtotoe Ok, i am lighter than MAC NC or NW 15, More like N1 in their Face and Body foundation, and i have combo/leaning more to oily skin.. I prefer a matte finish on my foundation, but i will powder it down if i have to.. What's right for me?! BB Creams are so intimidating! lol

  • omg, if they oxidize that much, should I get a shade lighter?

    I am na NC35/37 and I am interested in the Missha BB cream. I was thinking #27 because reviews say its a good match but if they oxidize, should I get the lighter shade, which is #23? HELP!!

  • @pigheather If you are NC35/37 definitely get the #27. #23 is nearly too light for me!

  • I really wanna order the skin 79 bb cream, but I'm sort of tan and I don't want it to look too gray on my face D: Will it blend well? Or are there other bb creams with the same amount of coverage and all? Cause I feel like Skin 79 has the best benefits >.<

  • OMG, just found this. SO HELPFUL. I'm so glad that you included Hannah, because my skin tone is close to hers (a bit lighter, perhaps - gasp!). I definitely want to get into BB creams and this gave me a good idea of a few I can try :D

  • i really want to buy the missha-one, but my mom says that the whitening is very dangerous! It's even been forbidden to sell bbcreams in my country becuse of the whitening. Should i still buy it?

  • Jen, which BB Cream would you recommend for girls with a combination of oily and dry skin?

  • very helpful video girls! my favourite is missha 21, it maches my fair skintone, I love it:)

  • Hi Jen, just wondering if you know of any other swatches of the M Perfect Cover BB Cream. I'm between the 31 and 27 (would need the yellow-er one) Thank you!

  • Oh my goodness, colossal fail! haha :)

  • where would you get bbcreams if you lived in canada?

  • do you think yesstyle.com is a trusted website to buy BB cream?

  • @lilspringgirl I think yesasia is a pretty good place, plus the site is in english! Another good site would be GMarket, but that site is a bit harder to buy stuff since even in the english site there's a lot of korean. Amazon sells them too i believe. Also some people on ebay but make sure you check if they're reliable. Also if you are in the US try going to Sephora, they now sell bb cream. Although it's not the asian brands they do now sell a few bb creams, and i hear good things about them :D

  • Really nice how you compair them all with two different skin tones. I was thinking about getting the skin79 one, but now when I see it on Hanna I see that it's way too dark. Going to try the skinfood and the Jasmine water one instead. Thank you sooo much for doing this!! ^^

  • where can i get the Skin79 DermaRX BB Cream, because i cant find it?

  • i have fair and dry skin and was wondering what type of consistency i should be looking for in bb creams. i've found with some bb creams/tinted moisturizers they make my skin look extra dry and flaky. should i be looking for a bb cream with more a more watery or creamy texture? thanks :)

  • hi jen please do tutorial for your make up here :)

  • 언니~~ 머리띠 너무 예쁘다...

  • they're both pretty!

    

  • I find it's too bad how the skin tones are so limited, hopefully with the rise of bb creams popularity companies will make more variety.

  • where do you purchase your BB creams from jen? :)

  • hi Jen, i really like your make up here. Can you do a tutorial on the products you've used and i really like how you did your eyes. Please please please do a make up tutorial on this look. Thanks in advance :P

  • With how much these oxidize and change color is there much concern when you put it on your face at say 8 in the morning vs how it will look two hours later? I'm worried I'll put it on and a couple hours later I'll look like death because of how gray and almost clay like in color they change to. :S

  • @TakkiToes actually, I think some of the grey tones (depending on which one) make the bb cream look neutralizing and a bit luminous. Not all of them work for my skintone, but the Missha 23 and Skin79 hot pink don't look too grey on me after about 30 mins. :)

  • that was soooooo helpful! thank you!

  • Hi! What BB cream would you say has the BEST coverage? i am fair but not quite as fair as Hannah. I'm currently trying the Missha Perfect Cover spf 42 and finding it to be nice, but i'd like something more pore minimizing if that's possible! (and not too terribly matte but more satin) thanks! :)

  • Is it just me or are they look looking grey ?

  • I am so glad I watched this video, I was very tempted to get some BB cream but I wasn't sure what to get, I had heard that Missha BB cream in NO23 was good for fair skin but I am the same colour as Hannah (I would be a NC15 in MAC as well) and that is clearly far too dark.

    At least now I have an idea what to look for, thank you :D

  • You girls look like Santana and Brittany from Glee.

  • I want to try the SKIN79 Super Plus BB Cream but 30$ is kinda pricey. Then again when you think about its like buying 3 products in one which they would all probably add up to 30$ or more.

  • If you are a NC25 to NC 30 Hera's Mineral BB cream is so amazing!!!!!

  • As somebody new to BB creams this is by FAR the most helpful video I've found. I liked the fact you showed them on 2 totally different skin types: cuts down on the hassle of trying to find a shade that matches (finding a suitable foundation is hard enough!) especially since alot of BB creams only seem to come in the one shade.

  • I thought bb creams tended to change color in order to match closely to every skin tone n it's been the case for most bb creams I have tried that might explain why the bb creams oxidize differently on both of u

  • Love this video

  • Which BBcream would be best for NC 25 ?

  • Thanks for the reviews, going to try out the Missha BB creams as they are having a huge sale this weekend! <3

  • This is awesome! Im super super fair and was worried about finding a bb cream that would be ok with my skin. Thanks for the help :)

  • i was previously using the missha ones you mentioned, though it makes me pretty oily, and after this video i got the skin79 hotpink (which is now my fav!) its perfect for my oily skin and has a great finish lol i want to try lioele & brtc next :D thank you for the video~ it was super helpful

  • hi. thank you for your review. Im looking for a yellow undertone bb cream. any suggestions?

  • where can you get the missa brand one?? like what website?

    

  • wow this was super helpful! thanks so much

  • i got the pink skin79 one based on your recommendation but i really need to know, is it oil free? i cant find this information anywhere, help! please!

  • Awesome review, Jen!! Do you think the Missha bb cream makes your face oily and give you breakouts?

  • Oooh thanks for the information Jen!

    If you're going to swatch in the future (wrt your face being lighter than the back of your hand), swatching the inside of your arm might be closer to your face color :D

  • i dont see these on the pretty and cute web :O

  • jw.... if im a natural beige 60 color

    what kind of bb cream can i use

  • Hi jen. I know that I'm probably a bit late but

    Do you know if you can actually buy them in stores? Cause in germany it's well... not that common to use them and I don't know where to buy them.

  • You guys are so pretty :))

  • My complexion isn't olive but it isn't as fair as Hannah's, do you think I could still use/find a BB cream?

  • Hi i have a question. i don't use foundation or power and i only make up for eyes not face. i only use sunblock, but now i consider buying BB Cream. can i use it as daily moisturizer? ALSO i have a little acne..not very bad. and my skin tone is tan. i have oily very oily skin. i'm using acne treatment so my skin sometimes dry other than that it's very oily. which one is good for me? please help thank you so much and i love your tutorial..

  • they look brown on her o.O

  • Have you guys ever tried anything from Holika Holika? I just ordered their Face 2 Change Liquid Roller BB Cream in shade #2 and I am really excited! I have only been able to find one review for it so far, but from how it looked, it looked really good! I hope it doesn't end up gray or pink on me, because I have an olive skin tone and that would look really bad with my complexion. Thanks for the video and keep up the great work ladies :D!!!

  • missha actually has a lighter shade than 21... its 13, milky beige.. i use it and im really fair and it works well and matchesv well

  • @jbarum

    Thank you!!! ( ◠‿◠ )

  • @PrincessPetunia No problem ^_^

  • This was INCREDIBLY helpful. Thank you for bringing in your friend, as it's very hard to find asian products that suit us westerners ;D

  • Hey Jen~ I'm sorry if you have answered this question before for someone else, but I can't find anywhere where you said anything about it. I was wondering if Hana ever tried the #13 in the Missha BB cream....I'm introducing some of my friends to BB creams and helping them find shades. I'm trying to decided between #23 & #13 for my friend who looks to be just as fair as Hana. What do you think?

  • Best BB cream review. Thank you so much for the swatches, it helped alot!

  • @Abyswonderworld spf is something you have to decide. If you're in te sun more, go for a higher spf. If you already have a favorite sunscreen, that works for you, you can go with no spf, and just wear that underneath. spf is really something everybody has to decide for themselves :)

  • my skin color is in between the two of yours, with a yellow undertone and naturally pinker cheeks. for a balance, i got for white colors and really avoid the pinks. Skin79 Super Plus Triple Functions BB Cream (hot pink), BRTC Gold Caviar BB Cream and Missha M Perfect Cover BB Cream No. 21 are the ones i'm most interested in from watching this video. can't wait to try BB creams, thanks girls! you're both beautiful and have such fun personalities :D

  • how do you decide which bb cream spf would suit u? like the way you were telling your skin tone and all in spf measurement. just wanna know how you find it out!

  • Wow! Thank you SO much for these reviews! I DESPERATELY needed to try a new foundation when my friend recommended me BB cream. Although I'd heard about it, I went on google and did some research and before I knew it I became obsessed with finding the right company and right skin color of BB cream. This however proved more difficult. Having you two show a variety of brands and colors at once really helped me decide on which cream I'm going to buy. I've decided on Missha. Thank you so much! :D

  • Could you tell me whether all BB creams have seals on them to cover the end of the tube? Because I received one with no seal and wondering whether it may have been opened already or a fake. Thanks!

  • Could you tell me whether all BB creams have seals on them to cover the end of the tube? Because I received one with no seal and wondering whether it may have been opened already or a fake. Thanks!

  • Hi, Jen. I want to know your review about Etude House Precious Mineral BB Cream&compared to those you reviewed. I'm currently using it but not quite sure whether it really matches me/not. My face skin color is kind of one tone darker than yours, more blemish, quite oily, and I live in a hot humid tropical weather. It's generally great, but I don't like it when I sweat so much, so I'm wondering which one that more suitable for me. Thank you =)

  • hi this might sound dumb but how do u know if the color will match your skin when they all seem to come in one color? im almost alway the lightest in any color of foundation. and these this arent cheep so i was just wanting to know what u would recomend. thank u!

  • BB cream wouldn't really work for hannah as much cause it's targeted mainly for asian ladies but it's cool that we can get a Caucasians point of view to see if BB cream would work for them :D

  • "colossal fail" LOL! Your friend is so funny!

    Anyways, Im liking the color of BRTC gold cavier but I'm not liking the price tag...

  • Comment removed

  • Is there anyway to let us know what websites you go to... i've heard there are a lot of fakes that are pretty similar to the real thing but end up pretty crappy versions. I ordered some from Amazon before finding out some aren't the real thing :(

  • @caribearkiss yeah you have to be more and more careful nowdays. >_< I can't vouch for other places, but I know prettyandcute has authentic skin79 bb creams and you can get the BRTC from the BRTC US website too. Missha has an online store for the US as well. :)

  • @frmheadtotoe wait jen, are you sure prettyandcute has real skin79 bb cream? because your hot pink one is fake :( the pump button on top and nozzle are both different from the authentic one. just want to warn others !

  • @frmheadtotoe also some of these products can be purchased from yesstyle.com an online retailer of

    Asian fashion and beauty products from Japan, China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Korea.

    Your video is very helpful in choosing the right BB cream.

  • @frmheadtotoe Thanks, I ended up trying out prettyandcute :D I'm starting to get biased towards Lioele :)

  • @frmheadtotoe The missha bb cream, was it the light beige or natural beige?!

  • @caribearkiss Pinky Paradise has legit Skin79 BB-creams. :)

  • -This was really helpful! thanks girls!!!

  • Great review girls!

  • Just bought the skin 79 hot pink, I hope I like it :) Ty for review.

  • ya are so cute

  • I love Misha # 23. got it for $10 including shipping.

  • Thank you so much for doing this video, I have pretty much the same skin tone as Hannah and i was having a very hard time finding one that would match me and from this video i found Skinfood Ginko Green BB Cream and it is my exact skin tone thank you so much!!!

  • omg..I'm gonna start trying BB cream. thanks!!!! :)

  • i might buy the ginko one, cause im about as pale as hannah is.

  • holy cow, that was a really in-depth review and swatch fest!! kudos and thanks! i have the brtc jasmine water and love it so far, but i also love the lioele water drop one because of its really good blendability (on me anyway). i now want to try the missha perfect cover #23 because of the super great reviews i've been watching, and also because i'm also an NC30, hehehe.
