In the strictest definition, BB stands for Blemish Balm, and designed as an all-in-one base product that provides coverage, sun protection and is good for the skin. In terms of formulation it should be mineral based, and contains 80% skin-healing ingredients.

hey, i’ve heard from a friend that Vichy’s BB cream have a very smooth application and is really good to use. I dont really dare to try it as it is my first time buying BB creams and i dont really know how to apply them so can you give a review ?
Amanda: Please see my review on the Vichy BB Cream here
haha~ thanks
I just saw it, although you recommend it for winter, I live in Singapore which is pretty much a Tropical country so what BB cream would you recommend me to use?
Amanda: I have very oily skin so it may just be on me that it doesn’t hold up. I know a lot of other bloggers love the Vichy BB Cream and have no problem with it sliding off. But for me, I like the Missha M Real Signature one and SkinFood Mushroom, although the Missha one breaks me out so I like SkinFood Mushroom the best. Use a silicon base primer & powder over the top for more longevity.
ah alright thank you very much!!!
i’ll keep that in mind~
Love this table – will be bookmarking it and yah, I have the 2 highest rating ones.. if only they make a darker shade for the Za BB cream ><

Lilpil: Yeah the top rated 2 would be the only ones in my repurchase list. In fact I’m running out of the Za BB cream so will be buying another this week!
Hiya, I only use BRTC so far and I haven’t tried another BB cream. I am very curious to know your thoughts on BRTC BB cream before I venture into trying something else. Do you think you’d ever do that anytime soon?

I mean *try that anytime soon?
Happyeverafter recently posted..Boy-o-boy
Happyeverafter: I haven’t tried the BRTC BB Cream, and since I’ve accumulated so many BB Creams and have found a favourite in Za, I’m not planning to try any more in the near future (I’ve actually gone back to foundation at the moment). I’m thinking that being Korean, it would be very similar to Missha BB Creams, offering great coverage. Is there something that you don’t like about it that makes you want to try another? If you just want to try for curious sake, I would suggest Za Cosmetics and Etude House Mushroom BB Creams – both favourites of mine and my beauty blogger friends.
What a great article! I’m going overseas soon. So i’ll print out (old school, i know) this table tomorrow to bring along… Thanks for putting it together for us!

Maria: Thank you! Nothing better than doing things the old school way – I always have print-outs of my to-eat and to-buy lists when I go overseas!
Have a great trip hun!
