Review: Skin79 Super Plus Hot Pink BB Cream


Product Info from SKIN79:
* Lighter feel and sebum control - more powerful sebum sebum-controlling ingredients kava & pursiane extracts will exhibit an oil-free soft skin that is not sticky.
* Up the water absorption - helps skin retain moisture & display a moist & smooth skintone.

* All day whitening & wrinkle skin care - the skincare that changes dark & dry skin into transparent & clear and maintains wrinkles to show a smooth and elastic skin.

* 10 in 1 non-stop solution - whitening + wrinkles + sebum + moisture + skin barrier + UV + perfection + corrects skintone + skin adhesion + base makeup. The complete BB cream for a busy person.
* Protects against UV radiation - SPF 25++ PA protects UVA & UVB, and protects your skin at all times.


RETAIL PRICE: Regular price is HK$224 (about Php 1,300) but I got this on sale for less than Php 1,000. I bought this during my Hongkong trip a month ago.

WEIGHT: 40 grams

SHADES : Available in 1 shade only.


PROS:
* super cute hot pink packaging
* the pump dispenses just enough amount product ; I only need 2 pumps for my face & neck.
* has SPF 25
* texture is a bit thicker than Purederm but not as thick as Dr. Jart Silver label.

* offers sheer to medium coverage.
* no whitish cast
* brightens my face like other BB creams



CONS:
* not available locally. If you want to buy one, try Ebay or Multiply shops.
* available in only 1 shade and fits NC20-35 skintones IMO.
* oil control is so-so, after 3 hours my t-zone starts to look shiny (when used without primer).
* has a greyish undertone (see side by side pics with Dr. Jart)
* oxidizes during the day



TIPS:
* After washing your face, apply right after skincare products.
* For oily skin, apply primer prior to BB cream application. Set with loose powder/pressed powder with good oil control.
* To avoid looking cakey, blot your face first using oil absorbing sheets before applying powder.
* Please remove all traces of BB cream/makeup before going to bed to avoid clogging your pores.


I RECOMMEND THIS TO:
Ladies with dry-normal skin that needs minimal coverage.


OVERALL:
Okay so this is the 9th BB cream that I've tried. I wish the staying power is good and the shade is kinda lighter coz I'm acidic, but that can be fixed using a good primer and a lighter shade of powder.

My all time favorite is Dr. Jart Silver Label because of its coverage and staying power. I even asked my bro in law who's based in Hongkong to buy a back-up for me coz its much cheaper there. Will post swatches of all my BB creams soon (I alternate using Missha Perfect cover #13, Purederm Magic BB cream, Skin79 and Dr. Jart Silver label).
