Elisha Coy Always Baby BB review
Hello guys! I'm sorry I haven't updated in like three months -gets hit by tomatoes- but I have a good excuse, really!
As you guys know (or maybe not) I'm a Medical Technology student and I'm super proud of my course. The fact that I had three majors (Anatomy and Physiology, Organic Chemistry, and College Physics) this semester really left me with no room to actually review any product (so much for that list I made a few months prior! >.<!!) Now I'm too lazy to review those things and decided to review the new stuff I had recently bought from
bhappywithme--who, by the way, is one of my most favourite online sellers at ebay!
Okay, onto the review!
Elisha Coy Always Baby Bb
It's super cute ^__^v
INFO:

Pore Care & Sebum Control
Covering powder uses a diffused reflection effect to cover blemishes, while sage extracts control sebum production and correct skin tone to show moist, beautiful skin.
High Density Moisturizer & Perfect Adherence
Royal jelly, rice callus extract, pearls, and organic chamomile extract all work together as a complex compound to keep your skin clear and radiant.

Blocks UV rays to keep your skin safe and uses Arbutin to care for dull skin.
Effects
Skin whitening, UVA/B protection [SPF35, PA++]
I actually have a problem with the nozzle. It actually causes the bb cream to spill out and ughh the cap looks super ugly now too, so I ended up placing this bb cream upside down so it doesn't spill. >.<
Here's a little bit of it so you can see the colour. The texture is suuuuper watery. It blends in fast so you have to work with haste if you want to achieve a non-patchy look @_@
Partially blended onto my hand...
Fully blended onto my hand. ^_^ You can see it gives my hand a nice glow and sheen. I really like this bb cream! :D
What I really think....
Coverage: Not much pore coverage but it's not like I expected it to cover pores, seeing as though it said it only covered blemishes.It has sheer to medium coverage. It depends on how many layers you use, but I usually use only 1-2 layers of this on a daily basis.
Texture/Consistency: Suuuper watery. I don't like how fast it sinks into my skin. However, bb creams usually don't sink into my skin at all. They're usually like a barrier and they don't really LOOK like my skin. Since this bb cream is so watery, my skin ends up looking super natural, albeit a bit glowy and shiny (non-comparable to the Twilight vampire discoballs xD) when I finally blend it all in.
Shade: Has a grey undertone that's perfect for my sallow, olivey-yellow skin tone <3
Oil control: I wore this during exam week (ughhh!) and it stayed on the entire day! Imagine that, 6-8 hours without needing to blot! O.o this is the first bb cream I never blotted with. When I came home, I looked in the bathroom mirror and said, "
homagawww! My skin still looks beautiful!" So you see, it really does live up to its claim of controlling sebum and looking radiant on your skin!
Longevity: Long. For a brand I never really heard about (woot for unknown bb cream brands!) this does the trick. Lasts a long time without needing to re-powder or re-apply. Awesome for a lazy girl like me!
Benefits: One whole week of using this and I think I'll be honest to say that it caused my skin to whiten. I'm now proud to say that my face (it's usually darker than my body because of the sallowness ;-;) is now the same colour as my neck! Success!
COST: 380 PHP! What a steal!! -squeals-
Last thoughts: Uh, what can I say? O.o This bb cream speaks for itself:
PROS:
- It doesn't fade on my skin by the end of the day
- It doesn't transfer to my handkerchief
- It keeps me looking super glowy and radiant (the box doesn't lie! XD)
- Really does whiten/brighten your skin tone! <3 <3
- Feels lightweight on my super oily skin
- Does not break me out at all!
- Is really budget-friendly. ^_^!
CONS:
- Ughh. The nozzle! You have to make sure you place it upside down so it won't spill all over. ;-;
- Not available in the Philippines.
See? It covered a bit of my pores and brightened my sallow skin tone ^__^
RATING: 4/5!
