Skin79 BB Cream-review



Skin79 BB Cream-Review




Skin79 has a whole sleuth of BB creams but they all rate 4 stars or above in the Amazon ratings. We have picked out two of what we think are great skin79 BB creams to review:

 

SKIN79 Super+ Beblesh Balm BB Cream VIP Gold Collection (Gold Label)


Skin79 BB gold labelThis is a BB cream more suited to Asian and white complexions rather than dark complexions as it tends to look too chalky on dark complexions. It is also geared more towards dry/combination skin so you may want to read the Pink review below for oily skin.
This light weight Korean BB cream does go on in a grayish sort of tint which can be a bit alarming, until your skin absorbs the cream and oxidizes to your natural skin tone. It has good coverage though and you can layer the cream on to achieve the porcelain look you want.
Some users have added powder to further set the cream but honestly, it does not need it. Powder is an option if you are going out at night and you just want a more ‘set’ look but otherwise, on its own it does the job very well.
the Skin79 VIP gold label  has gold and caviar extracts to nourish the skin whilst the phyto complex moisturizes the skin. A mixture of rice bran, sunflower and ivy extracts called Osmopur protects the skin from harmful environmental elements.
Contains UV protection.

Customer Review


I really love this BB cream. If you love putting highlighter on your face to create a natural glow, you will love this BB cream. With this cream, you can skip the highlighter and still get the glow you want. The texture is creamy and easy to blend. I only use a tiny bit to start with and then build up a little more if necessary so my face will not turn gray as other BB creams I used before. The coverage is light to medium so I still need under-eye concealer to cover my black circles. The finish is not dewy and sticky, maybe semi-matte. I skipped loose powder once and my blush still blend well. My face doesn't turn orange after several hours so the oxidization process is not that scary. Although I use moisturizer and three drops of face oil before putting this BB cream on, my face still feel a little bit tight in the afternoon. So the skin prep before this BB cream is very important if you have dry skin like me. Overall, a very good BB cream/foundation for dry skin type. I have tried Skinfood Mushroom(too dry), Dr G(too gray then turned orange),and Legere Double White(gray then turned orange), this SKIN79 VIP GOLD is the best.

I bought it from PINK GELEE. The seller included 3 Hot Pink samples and 1 VIP GOLD sample. I will try the Pink one to see if it suits me in the summer.

As someone who has a difficult time finding the right color foundation (medium-olive skin of uneven tone), I was somewhat hesitant about buying this kind of product first-time online, but being that BB Creams are not yet readily available in the US, I took the plunge -- and I am so glad I did! I'm so pleased with this product and so excited by it that I'm actually writing my first review in years!

Initially upon application, I was a little shocked and disappointed how "gray" it looked on my skin, but as other reviewers have said, after a few minutes, once it oxidizes (if that's what it's doing), it blends in beautifully, giving skin a smooth and radiant glow, not a made-up look. It's coverage is sheer to medium, so those with problem skin tone might find it falls sort of fully concealing, but I found this BB cream blends wonderfully with both powder or liquid concealer.

Not only did it brighten and smooth out my skin, it feels wonderful both on and after it's removed. I found it wears well all day, and provides wonderful moisture for my dry patches without breaking out my oily T-zone (the joys of mature skin lol). Looks great alone, with powder, or as an all-in-one under full make-up ... I found I did not need moisturizer or primer (even for eyeshadow) as I usually do to keep this BB cream's staying power, and my skin felt softer and smoother than with my usual moisturizer! Rather than emphasizing lines and dry patches like many foundations, I found this BB cream to be really hydrating and truly seemed to minimize the fine lines -- very buildable without caking up at all. I'm absolutely ecstatic with the product results, and am wondering if I'll ever go back to the trouble of moisturizer, primer, and foundation (maybe for very special occasions when I need the 'absolutely-flawless-glamorous' look). This is truly an all-in-one product that delivers wonderful, natural-looking results in one step, and it also has 25 SPF sunblock to boot!

Can't rave enough -- and the bottle is both cute and functional. The seller also included a couple of free gifts in addition to the promised Hot Pink BB Cream which I've yet to try. I do know the Gold VIP BB Cream is a steal for the price and an item worth more than it's weight in gold. I truly believe those who give this product a chance will be thrilled -- I know I was! An absolutely glowing and very satisfied customer :).
