Etude House BB Cream Review [][]~~~

Hey again ~~~
Hope every one had a good weekend so far.
While I have been away not blogging I have tried these two bb creams from Etude House.

So I will show photos first then, write up my review about the product and my thoughts.

The back of the packaging is all korean ( click the picture to enlarge)
So Here I did a comparison between my 2 other favourite BB creams:

Top Row (L2R): Missha M perfect cover bb cream #21, Dr Jart silver label bb cream.
Bottom Row (L2R): Etude House precious mineral sheer silky skin (PM SSS) #1bb cresm, Etude House bb magic cream.


Photo taken under white light. so my hand looks a bit blue LOL

A little bit spread out.~~~
blended in with the skin.~~
From the photos you can see that Missha is perfect shade blending with my skin it's a bit pink toned. and Dr Jart is obviously greyish undertoned. The Etude house PM SSS colour #1 is really pale, they have two colours I thought that the #2 would be too dark for me so I picked #1 but it's really pale. and the Etude house magic bb cream is really yellow.

So after testing for about 2-3 weeks of these two products I'm going to review of the different aspects of the product.

Coverage: Dr Jart > Etude House PM SSS > Missha > Etude House Magic

The coverage for Etude House Magic bb cream is quite sheer, hardly covers, so may be can be used as a makeup base if you want to add a foundation over it is also fine.

Oil Contorl: Etude House PM SSS > Missha > Dr Jart > Etude House Magic

Texture (Thickness): Etude House PM SSS > Dr Jart > Missha > Etude House Magic

Glow-ness: Etude House Magic > Missha > Dr Jart > Etude House PM SSS

Breakouts: Non with all of them although Etude House Magic is a bit oily for me.

Surprisingly the Etude House PM SSS gives the most MATTE finish, almost feel powdery some times. not that it's a bad thing because I like matte finish products.

For more reviews about Etude House Precious Mineral Range, check out Kimiko's Review at Taciturnity Serenity - AKA The BB cream Queen.

Overall I liked the Etude house PM SSS better than their Magic BB. It's a good bb cream but I prefer Missha M Perfect Cover the best, I don't know what that product has but It just DOES what it claims to do except about the anti-aging part which I'm not too sure yet. So In ranking

1. Missha M Perfect Cover BB cream

2. Etude House PM SSS BB cream

3. Dr Jart Silver Label

4. Etude House Magic BB cream.

That's All for now, If you have any questions feel free to leave in comment or C-Box ........

Take cares.. ~~~ Off to 2 birthday parties this weekend. hehe=D

Hmm I want to try Etude House bb magic cream since it's more yellow based but it seems like it doesn't have good oil control.. which is really important to me =/
