Face Shop Power Perfection BB Cream SPF37/PA++


Item: Face Shop Power Perfection BB Cream SPF37/PA++ in Natural Beige (40g)
Price: Php1495

This is the BB cream I'm currently using and my first one. I bought this out of curiosity because an office mate of mine told me the wonders of BB Cream, so I decided to check it out and did some research on what is BB cream really all about.

Here's what I found from Wikipedia:
Originally formulated in Germany by dermatologist Dr. Christine Schrammek in the 1950s, the cream was initially used to protect skin after laser procedures and surgery, while also providing light coverage. Introduced to South Korea and Japan in the 1980s, BB cream has been named "the secret of Korean actresses" and has been heavily endorsed by Korean celebrities, which gained it large exposure in these Asian markets.

I went to Faceshop Megamall and this BB caught my attention. Well, mainly because of what this product promises:
- A ‘3-in-1’ BB cream (anti-wrinkle, whitening, sun protection) with perfect  coverage
- Total Skin Treatment BB cream(Special ingredients for rejuvenating skin): actively addresses all skin problems such as loss of firmness, dry skin, uneven skin texture and dull complexion
- Better makeup results (flawless coverage + good adherence + long lasting):

The SA told me that the best color for me is Natural Beige, I was skeptical at first because I think light beige would suit me best. But she's the pro and I'm not so I bought the natural beige which Im glad I did. (yep she's right :P)

On my hand
Swatch: The color matches my skin tone. Look closely at my scar :(

Blend! Blend! Blend!


As you can see, after a few minutes my skin absorbed the cream and my scar lightened.

A few drop is all you need because too much of this cream will make you look like a ghost.

Pros: 
- It lasts all day and gives me a healthy dewy look! 
- Has a mild scent 
- Easy to blend
- Has SPF!

Cons: 
- For me.. NONE!
