Product Review: IWhite Korea's BB Holic BB Cream


Good morning everyone! I hope you’ve had a good start to your week. Today, I would like to review another IWhite Korea product (Yes, I love IWhite Korea!) which was recently released. I’ve heard a lot of good things about it and would like to try it out myself. It is the BB Holic Everyday BB Cream.

The product claims to “instantly perfects your complexion, provides natural coverage and protection while it nourishes and enhances your skin through its Aroma Herb Complex formulation. It is also infused with active lightening and anti-aging properties to give you multiple benefits from a single application.” 

I bought the one in beige which I think doesn’t suit my skin tone. Anything beige is okay for me before so I don’t know if it’s just because I got fairer or the shade is too dark for my liking. I should've bought the light shade too so that I could mix it together.



THUMBS UP:

*** Packaging – IWhite Korea is known for its cute packaging but aside from that, the BB Holic sachet was already divided into two parts so you can control the amount of product that you use.

*** Affordability – It is only Php 24.50 and is available in department stores, supermarkets and drugstores nationwide.

*** Scent - It has a sweet floral scent to it that it almost smells like chocolate.

*** Effectiveness - A little goes a long way. The coverage is buildable from light to medium and is good for everyday use. It also does even out my skin tone.


THUMBS DOWN: 

*** Lasting Power - It only last for 4 hours. After that, my face already feel oily and tacky. I didn't use any setting powder though so I guess you have to use one for it to last longer.

*** It emphasizes dry patches so make sure to moisturize first before using this.


      NEUTRAL:

    *** I wish they would make it available in tube so that you can bring it any where.

    *** More shades availability aside from light and beige.


Will I repurchase it? Why not? It's a good alternative for days when you just want to brighten up your complexion though I think this product will be awesome for people with normal skin type. How about you? Have you already tried IWhite Korea's BB Holic? Share your thoughts on the comment section below.
 

See you soon! :)

Product Review: Myra Vitaglow BB Cream


Hello my lovely readers! Today I will make a review about Myra Vitaglow BB Cream. I purchased it at Ever Gotesco Department Store because I got curious. I used Myra products such as Myra E 400 and Myra E Lotions before and I must say that I am very satisfied with those so I have high expectations for this one. 


Myra Vitaglow BB Cream only comes in a 20ml tube and is available in two shades which are Beige and Ivory. The one I bought was in beige. It promises to give you the following benefits:
  • Gives a hint of color as it evens out skin tone with a natural coverage
  • Contains minerals and vitamin E to help keep skin soft, healthy, and young-looking
  • With SPF 15 to protect the skin against the sun’s harmful rays

Here's how the product looks like



Can you see the shimmery particles?

THUMBS UP

*** Packaging – It is so simple but sleek. With its size, you can carry it inside your purse and bring it anywhere. The design of the tube also allows you to control how much product you need.

*** Affordability – It is only Php 99.00 and is available in supermarkets and drugstores nationwide.

*** Effectiveness - It did even out my skin tone and is very hydrating as well. I also like that it already has SPF because you don’t have to wear a separate sunscreen.


THUMBS DOWN

*** Consistency – I find the texture of this product a little bit runny as compared to some Korean BB creams that I’ve tried before. There’s also a sticky feel to it even if you’ve already set it with powder.

*** Coverage – It is very sheer and doesn’t really cover my skin imperfections. To be honest, it’s more like a tinted moisturizer than a BB cream.

*** Scent – It smells like a lotion but in a weird kind of way that is hard to describe.

*** I don’t like that it has shimmery particles to it because I feels like it’s very unnatural.

I don’t think I will repurchase this product because there are better options for a little over its retail price. However, I think that this is best for those people who have lesser skin troubles and doesn’t need too much coverage. I wouldn’t recommend this to people with oily skin though because it will only make you look oilier. How about you? Have you already tried Myra Vitaglow BB Cream?
