BB cream, the most hit and top selling cosmetic product in Korea since last year. I started to know about this product when I came across the advertisement in the local newspaper. Curious about the product, I googled about it and found a lot of good comments from the users. Briefly introduce it – B.B Cream (stands for Blemish Balm) is originally used on patients who underwent laser skin treatment. Its mild solution helps to protect and regenerate delicate skin. It becomes very popular after the Korea actresses use it and promote it due to its superb result. It is said to be the secret of nude makeup of Korea actresses, natural makeup and yet the skin looks so beautiful.
It claims to be 4-in-1: moisturizer + concealer + sunscreen + base. Some of the BB cream claimed to have 10 functions (maybe a little bit exaggerate
). It could cover imperfections like medium pores, reddish, can even your skin colour, won’t look too pale or dull. Some of the BB cream got UVA/UVB protection e.g. SPF 25/PA++. Some of them can smooth the wrinkle and fine lines. So each BB cream got different functions, therefore you need to read through the information so that can get BB cream that suits your skin.
There are many beauty brands in Korea that have developed BB cream and made it more suitable for Asian skin. Among the most popular one are Dr Jart, Skin79, BRTC and Hanskin (四大天王 – some blogs described like that). Other brands include The Skinfood, The Face Shop, Missha, Etude, Dodo Club etc. At the moment, we can get Skin79 and The Skinfood locally (Sarawak). I will write more about Skin79 BB cream in details in the next article since it is quite hot now here…I called the dealer in Kuching and he claimed that a lot people buying from him.
Quite a lot of forums in Malaysia, SIngapore, HK, Taiwan and even US that discussed about BB cream (Of course, in Korea too but I dont understand Korean language) . Most of the users gave good comments about this product – whitening, improve skin texture, look natural etc. It is recommended to clean the face properly (use make-up remover) because BB cream is not a skincare product, so must be cleansed before you sleep.
Any interest to try? I will purchase online from Korea directly…definitely lower than the market price. If you’re interested or in doubt with anything, please let me know :) (can email me: ladyskincare@hotmail.com or leave your comment here).
Last but not least, WELCOME to my skincare blog !

Wow I love your blog. Do try out Dermatologica products esp moistyre booster, eye cream, soothing moisturiser.
Also, Silk Whitia masks from sasa is cool too. its selling at $20.90 sing dollars for the first pack and you get 90% off for the second since its the Great Sale now.
Another thing to try out may be the collagen in drink and powder form from fancl.
Above is all that I have used and strongly recommend that you try them out so that many others may benefit from them too.
A myth to try: is to wash off the scars on the face with head and shoulder intensive shampoo. I was very spectical about this but apparantly it works. For me, it does.

Hi,
You can purchase from Korea or try to find anyone in your country that imports the BB cream. If you’re interested, I can order for you too. Thanks…
