More Stuff 2 Put On Your Face


So I got some more stuff... Now that I think about it, if I had been more patient I could have been just fine with only one. But.... I just couldn't wait for my new BB Cream to get on the mail so I ended up trying the Maybelline Dream Satin Liquid.

Skin79 Pink Super Plus Blemish Balm BB Cream
Before you even try the product, you have to embrace all the things it provides in only one bottle. The only thing I wasn't looking forewards to was the whitening effect. As a western girl I've learned to admire tanned skin, especially since I live in a country where summers are short. Also since I'm not asian, white skin will and does look unhealthy on me because people over here have very thin skin. This means that all my blood vessels will show even on my face if I'm skinny and fair skinned.
And back to the product itself. I wanted a BB Cream that is good to Oily and Combinated skin since the one I bought before[Lioele BB Cream] is too moisturizing for me at the moment. I can only use it during winter. So I put the Pink Super(Super Pink sounds better) on my face and I had good and bad surprises with it.
Firstly the smell was like an old womans perfume but I could tolerate it. Also it would face away after the BB Cream setteled on my face. Also when I squeezed it out the cream was coming from everywhere. I wonder if other people have this problem?
The good things I noticed were that the coverage was really good and the color evened out my skintone which is kind of reddish. Also even though the Maybelline one is supposed to hide your pores, I think the BB Cream did an even better job at that. Also it looked nice like it didn't need powder.

Maybelline Dream Satin Liquid
I saw the commercial and since I'm so touchy about my pores, so of course I wanted to hide them with this. Also I had seen so many girls rave about it on Youtube and especially this one girl looked so flawless with it.
It didn't have a scent and the color was nice. Though when I applied it to my skin, it ended up looking oily. Powder did fix it a little bit but I wasn't pleased. Also the tiny bumps that I did have on my skin looked bigger and it looked caky. This will propably look better if you have normal skin that is perfect. In other words it's like meant for people who don't need foundation.

So definitely if you still wonder if you should get a BB Cream, just DO IT! It's better, cheaper and in the long run more healthier for your skin.

P.S. About the background. I do have that perfume but it's not my favorite. I just wanted to add some color into the picture.
