I was recently sent 3 tubes of Bio-essence BB Cream for trial and review.

I'll begin today with a review of the Bio-essence Bio Multi-Effect BB Cream with 8-in-1 benefits, including SPF25/PA++.



According to Bio-essence, Bio-essence Bio Multi-Effect BB Cream SPF25/PA++ is for basic coverage, allowing you to create a flawless look with a natural nude finish. Its benefits are:

Smooth velvety texture to provide a natural & flawless finishing
Refines pores & whitens skin
Provides long lasting hydration to prevent skin dryness & regulates oil secretion
Nourishes skin with essential nutrients & mineral elements to revitalize skin
Improves skin texture for smoother, softer, refined & fairer skin
Protects skin from harmful UV rays with SPF25/PA++

I wore this BB Cream for a day and became quite fond of it. It lasted through the day with very little shine coming through even though I was sweating in the hot humid outdoors for some part of the day. It's a BB Cream that I chose to reuse for several days after. I was also able to skip applying under-eye concealor.

However, as you can see, I have alot of red/pink under my skin and this BB Cream is not quite a perfect match to my skin tone. It's not too obvious if I apply a thin layer and blend it out well, while toning down the yellow with my loose powder. The good thing is despite using a thin layer, it still provided good coverage for my skin, smoothing out my pores and toning down the redness in my skin.




REVIEW
Pros
  • Very good oil control (recently my t-zone has been very oily, but this BB Cream is able to deal with it)
  • Good coverage - Covered up dark circles and redness on my skin
  • Feels light and non-intrusive on the skin
Cons
  • Dries up pretty fast on the skin, making it difficult to spread evenly
  • Not a very good colour match for my skin
VERDICT YYYY /5

I like this BB Cream. I'd recommend it for anyone who has oily skin and yellow-based skin tone.
