For a start, you will learn more about BB creams,

• It is known as Blemish Balm cream aka. BB cream.
• Originated from Germany.
• Has both makeup and skincare benefits.
• Actually is a clinical product that is prescribed by dermatologist.
• Used by patients who undergo laser procedure or plastic surgery, as application of makeup is not recommended just after the process.
• Helps in reduction of redness, soothing of sensitive skin and gives light coverage from surgical scars while recovering.
• It was rumored that it was first used by a popular Korean female artiste after her plastic surgery and she instantly felt in love with it for its natural and dewy finish on her skin. Thus she continue using it even she recovered and recommend them to fellow artistes resulting in an uproar of the BB cream trend in Korea.
• As it is convenient to use, girls around the world started incorporating it into their beauty regimes to save time and to help cut down the amount of products used with traditional makeup regimes.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Why choose Bio-essence’s BB creams?

As they have three types to choose from, thus catering to various needs.

1. Bio-essence’s Aqua BB cream (For hydrating)
2. Bio-essence’s Bio Multi-effect BB cream SPF 25/PA++ (For coverage)
3. Bio essence’s Bio Platinum BB cream Plus Multi-effects SPF 25/PA++ (For whitening)

Formulated by the Bio-essence laboratory in Singapore, thus it will be highly likely more suited for our weather and focusing more on our skin conditions.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Knowing the proper way on applying the BB creams:

1. Prime your face and neck with your skincare products like toner and moisturizer.
2. Using clean fingers, squeeze out required amount.
3. With the help of your fingers, use gentle patting motions to build up an even coat on face and neck.
4. Pat on your loose powder to set the BB cream as it helps to correct the colour of the BB cream to match your skin tone and for a more lasting finish.

My Thoughts on BB creams:

Personally I have been an avid user of BB creams for a long period of time as I can be quite lazy at times.

I have used various brands before like: Skin food, Elisha Coy, Skin79 are a few to name.

I can get pretty picky on what I use, thus I hold a pretty strict expectation on how the BB creams fare.

Thus read on to see whether Bio-essence’s BB cream had live up to my requirements and their promises.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Without further ado, today I will be talking about,

Bio-essence’s Bio Multi-effect BB cream SPF 25/PA++

My thoughts:

Left of the picture: bare face , Right of the picture: with just the Bio-essence’s Bio Multi-effect BB cream. Super madly in love with the instant brightening effect that it gives.

This is me, with a more complete look. Simply adore how smooth my face feels when I touch it.

The creamy textured Bio-essence’s Bio Multi-effect BB cream feels light on my skin and does not cause any form of allergies even though I do have sensitive skin as well.

I love the light soothing lavender scent as it really helps me to relax my tense up nerves.

The Bio-essence’s Bio Multi-effect BB cream dries up in almost an instant after application, thus lesser down time for the next step of my makeup regime.

Another plus point is that there is no need to use additional products like: sun block, mattifier, pore minimiser or even a concealer as it is a one step process.

The skin tone for the Bio-essence’s Bio Multi-effect BB cream really suits my fair skin though I was wondering how it would fare on more sun-kisses tan ladies.

With the Bio-essence’s Bio Multi-effect BB cream, my makeup lased the whole day with only light blotting of my nose area in the afternoon.

The strong coverage is what I love the most from the Bio-essence’s Bio Multi-effect BB cream as it can covers all my blemishes, redness, pimple scars and even my serious dark circles. There were times that I even forget that I have to apply concealer for the problems listed above after applying the BB cream.

The time saved from converting from traditional makeup to the use of Bio-essence’s Bio Multi-effect BB cream can always be put to better use like getting on time to work.

I am so loving the results that I witness. *cheers to Bio-essence*

Definitely would recommend it to my readers and friends out there.

My god, the party was packed full with eager ladies ranging all the way from teenagers to working adults and even to really mature women.

The sleek sticker I was given to show that I have RVSP before hand.

The super long queue for payment and collection of the goodie bag.

From this amount of ladies, I could really tell that L’Oreal Paris is really a well loved brand that really caters the needs of ladies from the various age groups.
