Review: SKIN79 Super+ Beblesh Balm BB Cream Triple Function (Pink Label)

If you're wondering what BB Cream does here's a good website you can check out
www.squidoo.com/b-b-cream

Where to buy: Skin 79 website, Pretty & Cute, Amazon or Ebay (Be careful for fakes)
Price: Varies, depending on where you get it's usually around $20

My Skin Type: Combo/dry, oily T-Zone, dry spots usually on my chin and occasional breakouts around the chin area as well.



What Skin 79 Says:
A triple function blemish balm cream that shields skin from premature aging with potent SPF 25, while whitening skin and reducing existing lines and wrinkles. The creamy formula effectively covers up skin imperfections, creating a perfect base for makeup and foundation. Skin feels and looks fresh, with a gorgeous matte finish all day long. Recommended for combination and oily skin types. By Skin79.


Pros:
- Creamy and blendable
- Lightly scented
- Natural finish so it doesn't look cake on

Cons:
- Only one shade available so people with darker skin may have trouble getting it to match
- People with dry skin like me may have to moisturize before applying this because it's not that moisturizing
- Coverage is light so don't expect it to be flawless unless you already have nice skin

Overall:
I feel like what they claim BB Cream does is a gimmick, however I still use BB Cream because it's a tinted moisturizer for me and I don't like the feeling of a heavy foundation these days.

This product is okay for me, I have been using this for 2 months and I don't see any results from healing or refining my skin. I can't say this is anti-winkle as what most BB Creams claim to do otherwise I see this more of a tinted moisturizer.

Swatch:


When you first apply this BB Cream it comes off grey but after a few minutes it oxidizes to your skin color. Now if you have a darker skin tone this maybe too light for you since they only have one shade color, but I have seen people mixing this with their matching foundation shade so the color can match well to their skin. I would recommend trying out the Missha BB Creams as they come in darker shades.

As a tinted moisturizer I do enjoy this product but I wish it was more moisturizing since I do have some dry spots.

Rating: 4/5
Would I repurchase: no

Disclaimer: I purchase this.

Haul: BB Creams, H&M, Rite Aid...

Stuff I bought this month, mostly bargain goodies which is always my favorite :D

BB Creams
Ever since I tried Skinfood and Missha's BB Cream I've been hooked and now they're my favorite! I wanted to try the Skin 79 (pink version) and I was going to purchase them from Prettyandcute.com but after seeing my sister purchase hers at Amazon for only $14.00 each including free shipping I end up purchasing there instead.

You probably thinking "what?? $14.00 for Skin 79 BB Cream?! Are you sure its not fake?! Since the real one cost around $28?" Well I looked at my sister's before purchasing and it look soo legit I even google and search around youtube where people compare the fake and real ones and so far the one from amazon is real. I thought maybe its cheap because it expires? But on her box it says it won't expire until 2013. Even when I receive my BB Cream I was still skeptical because for the price, $14.00, it sounds too good to be true I google and compare again so far its real!

The Amazon seller is "Pink Gelee" Amazon Store Link


They change the packaging of these so its different from the old one, I watched this video on youtube http://youtu.be/pWVk9NA8qqE where this person was comparing the fake and real one.


It even have the authentic sticker


Rite Aid

This week at Rite Aid Wet n' Wild products are buy one get one free with the rewards card so definitely hurry and check it out! Such a great deal since WnW products are already affordable. If you never tried their products I highly recommend their eyeshadows and blushes.

Marshall's

I thought this bag was really cute, I wanted to get a bright color purse for the spring and summer since most of the purses I own are dark colors. I got this for around $30


Crochet cardigan, thought this would be cute over light or pastel color tops


Guess nude color heels, I've been looking for a nude color shoes for a long time and I finally found this one which was on sale for $15. What I love about it most is the heel is 2 inches, I'm still not use the wearing high heels, I'm a flats and sneakers type of girl so I'm slowly trying to get use to wearing them adding a inch little by little lol.

Forever 21

I bought this gray skinny jeans I already own 2 pairs (black and blue) before. I know F21 don't have the best jeans but these are so comfortable. I got this for around $10.50 which is part of their "Fabulous Finds"

H&M

Cute sweater for $10, I can wear this over a skirt or jeans.

Hope you enjoyed my haul, thank you for reading :D


Disclosure: I bought everything :]
