Foxy Says:
Scent: A little clinical but I'm fine with it.
Nett Wt: 50ml
Price: Usually RM100, but i bought it in a promo pack with cleanser for about 70-ish?
Texture: White cream, non-runny
So I tested this in different ways (in each one, I went out for lunch with 5 mins walk under the sun; and sunscreen is staple):
Without Serum, without BB Cream
- No blotting required. Fantastically matte. However, a little too drying after 11 hours in office with air conditioning. Hint of fine lines slightly visible.
Without Serum, with BB Cream
- Still no blotting required. Skin looks normal throughout the day, but started to look a little tired after about 11 hours.
With Moisturizing Serum and BB Cream / Foundation
- I love this combo the most! No blotting required, non oily, skin stays nicely plumped up and looked fresh even after 11 hours in the office. Feels smooth to touch (yes due to the +cone).
Best of all, BB Cream / Foundation doesn't smudge off! :D
With Moisturizing Serum, without BB Cream / Foundation
- Better than the second condition. Doesn't look dry and tired. Non oily, no blotting. After 11 hours, skin is slightly better.
Oh, this is one of my top HGs!
Doesn't break me out, doesn't make me shine, got it at a promo price.
One pump is enough for the whole face + neck.
Keeps me nicely hydrated (though only day time). I would definitely re-purchase this, on sale yeh!
*Don't think this is suitable for dry skin though..
