BB Cream

BB cream, also known as Blemish Balm, Blemish Base or Beblesh Balm, is a cosmetic item sold mainly in East and Southeast Asia, although larger beauty brands are increasingly transferring BB creams to European markets as well. more info click here

I have used in total of 3 different bb cream and I have used them now all more then 3 months.

The first one will be the Skinfood Peach Sake Pore BB Cream (30ml) I got this one for €12

      

This has the following properties:

- Provides a natural light coverage on the face
- Does not grayish complexion
- Peach extracts will take care of oily skin and soothe
- Sake ensures a good control tallow
- Regular use reduces pores and smoothes the skin
- Has a nice natural fruity fragrance
- The SPF20/PA + protects the skin from the sun

This BB Cream also smells like Peach, and it has 2 different shades light and normal beige. I purchased the normal beige, when I first used it, it did cover up the red spots I have on my face but it doesn't cover up my dark circles. Which was a shame because it smelled really nice and covered really well except the dark circle. It is also not sticky even after the whole day wearing it. This bb cream is suitable for combines skin.

The next one is Missha Perfect Cover (20ml) I got this one for €19

      

This has the following properties:

- High protection against UV radiation: SPF 42/PA + + +
- Reduces pigmentation
- Prevents skin aging
- Hydrates the skin, all day
- Reduces blemishes such as acne or skin blemishes
- The skin will look natural

This BB Cream sells in 2 different colouers #21 Light Beige and the #23 natural Beige. This BB cream is slightly better than the Skinfood, this ones was able to cover up the red spots and the dark circle's I had. Only the disadvantage was that it has a grey undertone and it takes some time before it changes into your own skin colour. This is also suitable for combines skin.

And the last one is the Skin79 Hot Pink Super Plus BB Cream (40ml) I got this for €19

      

This has the following properties:


- Gives the face a natural look
- Contains almost only natural ingredients
- Perfect coverage, but closes in contrast to a foundation of the pores not depend
- Replaces not only your foundation, but also your moisturizer
- Conceals facial blemishes, pigmentation, acne and other blemishes
- Regenerates the skin and reduces wrinkles, fine lines and acne
- Contains Arbutin for a solid color
- Contains Phyto-Complex for optimum nutrition of the skin
- Contains extracts of green tea, sunflower seeds and rice for skin protection
- Protects the skin against UV A and B radiation SPF25/PA + +
- This BB Cream is oil free and does not feel sticky





Last but not least the Skin79 and I have to say that I LOVE THIS ONE, this one come in 2 different colours as well Skin79 Hot Pink Super Plus Beblesh Balm and the Skin79 VIP Gold Label Super Plus Beblesh Balm. This one covers everything my dark circle and red spots even some acne that I have, this is like the perfect one for me. and the nice thing is that is has a bump (can't remember how to spell that word ^^") only one disadvantage is that is has a really strong grey undertone but it tends to go away when its been blended with your skin. This BB cream is suitable for all skins types.





Circle lenses

A little information for the people that doesn't know what circle lenses are:

Circle contact lenses make one's eyes appear larger and come in a variety of colors and effects. They are a new fashion trend in Japan, China, Korea and Taiwan. The diameter of regular contact lenses that are sold in the United States are on average 14mm–16mm, similar to the diameter of the cosmetic circle contact lenses. For more information click here.

So I have recently started using circle lenses, as I only orderd 2 different colours to try out. I ordered the normal ones which the outer ring is black and I ordered brown ones. each pair I can wear them for 3 months. The most popular brand of it is CEO, the one I ordered is Phantasee.

The first time I wore the black ones I looked really weird as I didn't wear any make-up. After that I tend to wear my circle lenses with some eye make-up so that I won't look ridiculous. Recently I have been wearing my brown circle lenses. As it looked like a light brown instead of dark brown it really gave me away that I am wearing a different colour, but since it is now spring I tend to wear more eye make-up to match it.

This is the brown circle lenses, I didn't take picture of the black ones but you can imagine where it is brown here is black.

  

I purchased this on a dutch site called beautylenzen I purchased them for around €20. They are soft lenses and the quality of it is really good.

   

Right: me with black lenses, Left: with brown lenses.

I won't say that I will recommend it or not recommend it, because some people eyes are very sensitive and some aren't and this is after all my opinion. BUT if you really want to get circle lenses then I would say go for it. I hope that this has helped a bit for you gous that want to get circle lenses ^^.
