While BB Creams are
kind of a hot topic for me this season, and considering my previous post was a
little on the trolling side (sorry,
L'oreal), I thought I would blog about another one of my favourite BB creams.
Firstly, the Let Me
Dressed Glam BB from Banila & Co (a kind of cult brand from South Korea)
comes in 4 shades: classic beige, pink beige and yellow beige and 2 formulas
for dry (moist) and oily skin (matte).
What the Let Me
Dressed BB offers:
- Medium to high coverage, great for those like me with acne prone skin
- SPF 37 PA ++
- Oil control
- Wrinkle free, which basically means it covers and improves the appearance of existing wrinkles
- And lastly, whitening , the covering and treatment of uneven skin tone
The texture is quite
thick and creamy, and feels very similar to BRTC Jasmine Cream but this one is
a thousand times easier to blend, it practically melts across the face. It
honestly feels and looks like a foundation (minus the cakeyness).
The coverage is
amazing, it hides almost all my blemishes. Some of the larger, more swollen
pimples still need to be touched up with a bit of concealer, but that's no
biggie; it also lasts for quite some time. After about five hours on a regular
day at work I'll touch up with a bit of powder and I'll be set for the rest of
the day. But the best thing about this BB cream is that it doesn't break me
out.
I haven't worn
foundation in weeks, and I'm a little sad because the tube is slowly slimming
down with every use and it's not exactly
cheap (or easy to find for that matter). I grudgingly paid $37 AUD for
mine from a seller on ebay, but it was worth every penny; it's far from empty
at the moment but I think I'll be happy to spend the extra dollars again when
the time comes.
Anyone else tried
Banila & Co BB creams or any of their products before? What did you think of them? Let me know below!
