Project BB Cream | Skin79 Super Plus Beblesh Balm.

It's been a successful two-week run for my Crazy Cupid Giveaway (almost 6000 entries as of this writing, wow!) and methinks it's because of the fabulous prizes at stake. Really. Even I would want the prizes for myself, haha! Now the giveaway will be closing in sixteen hours, but before this event officially ends, I want to share my thoughts on one of the prizes - the Skin79 Super Plus Beblesh Balm.
Yes, it's called Beblesh.
Allegedly one of the best-selling BB creams in the market, the Skin79 Super Plus Beblesh Balm functions in three ways - whitens and brightens the skin, conceals skin imperfections, and protects the skin from harmful UV rays with its SPF25 PA++ feature.

This BB cream has been deemed unique because of its osmopur ingredients (contained in sunflower, ricebran, and ivy extracts) which protect the skin and keep it free from imperfections. Also found in the Skin79 Super Plus are adenoisine and arbutin, both known for their whitening properties. Finally, there's Phyto-Complex which brightens the skin and keeps it moisturized.
Yay, English literature!
The positive reviews that I've read about this product are one too many. And that made me really curious as to why this BB cream seems to be very popular and well-loved.
Swatch!
This BB cream comes in just one shade, and its color is somewhat similar to my Missha Signature Wrinkle Filler BBCream in #21. It has a slightly grayish cast, but once the BB cream oxidizes, it matches the skintone quite nicely.
Left without BB Cream; right with BB Cream.
Consistency is creamy but not too thick, easy to blend, and doesn't look or feel heavy on the face. Coverage is buildable from medium to full, and has a slightly dewy finish. Staying power is pretty good too, eight hours at the most, on top of the humid weather that we've been having the past few days. Best of all, I had no breakouts or any form of skin irritation from this product.

What I love:
Pretty pink packaging (even the full-sized bottle is cute, too)
Buildable coverage
Easy to blend
Lightweight
Dewy finish
Good staying power
Mild scent
Didn't break me out
SPF25 PA++

What you might not like:
It comes in one shade only
Not available locally

Yeah, sad to say, Skin79 has no physical store in the Philippines yet. You can opt to buy this product online, though. It sells for Php 950 at Stuff in Style. That's a very reasonable price, if I may say, since a 40g bottle of this sells for 27000 KR Won at Emart. Converted, that's around Php 1000.

Finally, a selca / Face of the Day. :)

Notice the gradient lips? I've been wearing that look quite often these days, and have received several requests for a step-by-step tutorial for it. If the lazybones won't act up next week, I might be able to do a tutorial for it. Now that would be a first for me. :)

  2. As I was looking at your photo, I thought "Wow, her lips look great!" then scrolled down to read your sentence about the lip tutorial. So, you have to do it! I'm sure I'm not the only one that would benefit from a tutorial like that. And thanks for the review. I've only just begun to hear about BB cream and am curious to what the hype is
