After dabbing into the skin, the BB cream set into my skin easily

My review : The BB cream able to cover my redness , even my skin color and surprisingly my pores appear smaller. My face stay matte, not oily after whole day application and in fact gives a very nice glow and overall skin appear smoother.

Note : You do not need to apply a lot of this as the texture is creamy.

p/s: Excuse me for my Dracula eye dark circle

Unfortunately like most BB cream , this color shade appear to be a little fairer to my yellow skin tone (or maybe I applied too much?) . And I might take my friend Thera suggestion that fairer foundation/bbcream to be used at the night time so it wont look too obvious.

Remember the earlier on, I mentioned this bb cream promises 8 greater result and I do think it achieved most of all except. So this bbcream is something worth trying especially with the price so affordable!

Pros : Cover up pores & redness quite well, even up skin color, giving face some glow and yet not oily after whole day , price reasonable

Cons : color appear a little fairer to my yellow skin tone
