Skin79 - Super+ Perfection - Super Plus Beblesh Balm - Triple Function




Packaging: A brushed silver tube with a dark chrome lid.

Information: Triple protection: whitening, wrinkle improvement, and UV A & B SPF 25 PA++. 

Appearance/Smell/Texture: A light beige color, I do not detect any scent from this product, the texture is smooth and clean.  As you can see below the swatch it blends perfectly. 




Instructions: Apply appropriate amount, and then pat into skin softly.  Also apply powder to control oiliness afterward.

Cost: Bought from Gmarket for 25,000 won or $23 dollars but further discounted to 19,900 won or about $18.30.  I also got free shipping since I live in Korea.  Came with a free gift I picked highlighter balls but ended up with a compact, not a big deal.

Rating: 5/5


Skin79 - The Oriental - Total Power Cream




Packaging: A clear glass jar with the inner part of the jar painted gold and a gold reflective lid. It has a simple classic look to it, a beautiful addition to any makeup collection. 

Information: For wrinkle improvement.  Controls fine lines with Adenosine and keeps skin more resilient with the oriental tea blending ingredients including white, black, and green tea.  Protect and keep skin moisturized with caviar extract and aloe vera forming a water layer.  And keep skin more radiant and revitalized it by soothing exhausted skin. (from packaging).

Appearance/Smell/Texture: An off white  cream that is rich in texture, has a light smell that is very pleasant.  It is the best moisturizer I have ever used (I haven't used many) it absorbs quickly and leaves skin very soft. 




Instructions:Apply a proper amount to the entire face as the last step before makeup application.  You should wait a few minutes before applying makeup so that it has had a chance to soak in.

Cost: Bought off gmarket will post about price as it is part of a package.

Rating: 5/5 a great buy.


Skin79 - The Oriental - Shimmering BB Cream



Packaging: A beautiful lilac purple tube with gold cap and push button.  Also a nice quality brush applicator.




Information: Contains green, black and white tea; nano vita silk and silk amino acid. If you would like more information on ingredients let me know. 

Appearance/Smell/Texture: It is a very light bb cream that is very shimmery.  It has a light smell, not really sure what it is, it is not unpleasant or overbearing.  Very silky and soft texture that is not heavy.

Picture with flash.


Instructions: After base cosmetics application, at the make-up stage, press pump until some bb cream is visible (be careful or you will have a lot) gently spread along cheek, forehead, nose and chin. Lightly finish by patting into skin.  If used for a highlighter it is recommended that you put it on your hand and lightly apply.

Cost: Bought off of gmarket from skin79 as a set, best way to get a good deal. I will add a screen shot of that in a later post.  It was not too expensive and it is one of the best quality items I have bought.  5/5

Missha - M Vita B.B. Cream SPF 20

I just adore B.B. Creams they were what was missing out of my life in the United States. I have to say if I was ever to leave Korea I would be really sad.

So I decided to try out one of Missha's B.B. Creams, it can be hard to find one that matches my light skin tone. Also I prefer something light and not too heavy as I have really great skin with just an occasional blemish.

From the box:
Missha M Vita B.B. Cream with skin protection,moisturizing effects, covering effects as well as UV protection relieves you from extra makeup, and contains natural extracts that offer natural soothing effects for sensitive skin. Nano vita complex, a vitamin complex, enhances skin's vitality; and ATC complex, a skin soothing ingredient, helps protect skin.
From the tube:
It contains 7 essential vitamin complexes derived from natural ingredients that help to improve the skin. Also it is multi-functional and convenient to use to moisturize, protect, and correct skin tone and block harmful UV rays.

Directions: After basic skin care, apply an appropriate amount evenly to the skin according to skin complexion and finish with powder. For enhanced covering effects use foundation after B.B. Cream.

So I felt like this product had a lot to offer and it does deliver as promised. It evens out my tone and makes me look like I'm not even wearing makeup, it is light so as to not make you feel weight down. Also I like how well it matches that it just blends in with no problems. It only comes in one color so if it doesn't match unfortunately you are out of luck.

As you can see it blends in and gives you a sort of glow, as you can see on the edges I didn't finish blending to give you an idea of what color this is by it's self. I unfortunately will have to add that swatch of the foundation later I forgot about it. It is a great B.B. Cream my favorite so far.

So what do I rate it 5/5 at 11,800 Won it is about 9 dollar U.S. which is not bad for what a great quality product it is.
