I have two BB creams that I would like to review as my first blog post. One was purchased at Pretty and Cute.com and the second was purchased at iMomoko.com. Both websites are based in the US and offer a very wide range of the finest Asian cosmetics. I would recommend both of them first! 


The first one is called Lioele Beyond the Solution BB cream. According to Lioele.com "it creates clear and natural skin tone by being effectively absorbed into the skin."  The nice thing about this BB cream is that it's sanitary with its PUMP nozzle where you pump the product out. The downside is that this BB cream has NO SPF in it so you're going to have to slap some sunscreen on before. It can also have a grey undertone but most BB creams do. The coverage of this BB cream is medium.

One pump of BB cream can cover the entire face.

One pump is more than enough for your entire face.

Blends nicely onto the skin. With BB cream you have to blend it to the color of your skin.
The amount of product I had might have felt heavy in the hot summer sun. 


The next BB Cream is the Skin 79 Dream Girls BB Cream. This is my second BB Cream that I own and has light coverage. It is meant to be for younger girls with little to no imperfections. I love to use this BB Cream in the hot Florida summer sun because it is light and does not feel heavy. The only downside with this BB Cream could potentially be the squeeze tube for some people. This BB cream tends to have a grey undertone but most BB creams do.

It has a very nice texture and thick consistency. Like most BB Creams, a little goes a long way!

FINAL THOUGHTS: Both BB creams are great and I would consider repurchasing them when I run out of them. I usually use the Lioele BB cream when my face needs more coverage but the Skin 79 BB cream works great for younger people who may not even have sun spots or dark marks.

Greetings and new beginnings

So as I sit on my living room floor I am compelled to type up a blog post. I feel like it would be nice to get all of my thoughts and ideas out on a blog instead of them always buzzing around in my head like an angry bunch of bees. I've always dreamed of maybe some day being a YouTube beauty guru like Michelle Phan or even a famous blogger like Xiaxue, but I always thought I wasn't good enough or educated enough to do so. Well after getting a good mark on a huge research project this semester I was inspired to start a blog. I'm a 19 year old college student studying Criminal Justice at our local community college. Makeup and cosmetics is my porn as my dad likes to say. When I was younger I never really liked makeup, and never applied it. I guess once I hit 16 and started becoming more "girly" I became obsessed with the art behind it and how you can completely transform yourself like Promise Phan does in her weekly YouTube videos. I will be reviewing products,talking about Disney,trends, and maybe even talking about other issues. I just want to document my life in a way that I can look back on in years and laugh how much i've changed.
