lindie,

I think it's best you try it on at the store to be sure. It's kind of translucent.

I am using the Missha's BB cream Vita. It feels quite rich on the hand. But if you put toner on your face, then you put the BB cream, then it feels quite light. For me , it does not feel like I have thick foundation. At least that is how I felt ***. Coverage quite okay. But I think you have to touch up by midday. My only complain about this product is the SPF coverage of only 20. Otherwise in other aspects I quite like this product.

thanks floral for your feedback!

next time i go down to missha i would make sure i ask for bb cream sample.

I bought Skinfood's Ginko BB cream on Friday and used it over the weekend

My verdict on the BB cream - good! Easy to control coverage. Can range from sheer to normal. I loved the texture. My skin tone looked more even. Not much difference in the oil control area, but then again, my T-zone is very oily. I'm gonna use this for work from now on. The texture of the BB cream is very easy to blend and it disappears into my skin. No. 1 matches my skin great (I'm a Mac NC25) and is translucent. The cream kind of mattifies after application and I just needed a light dusting of loose powder and some eye concealer and I'm ready to go!

Oh ya, and one more thing I noticed, the cream did not oxidize on me. Foundations tend to oxidize on my face, this did not. Yay!

girlosophy,

thanks for pointing out the "oxidizing" point!

i have been trying very hard to express the fact of "does not wear off or turn dull easily over time" but couldn't find the right word to use.

yeah, oxidize is the word!

Now I'm lemming for the Skinfood BB cream..will drop by to test it out at the shop tmr! Do you think they'll give out samples? I'm thinking of trying it out first before buying..

snowdust,

you can try asking for samples 1st.

i got my sample from marina square outlet in early July. At that time they did not have ready stock for BB cream samples yet, so the salesgirl was actually nice enough to squeeze out a tiny tub from the tester for me to bring home.

but I am not sure if all the salegirl would do the same or i simply was very lucky.

saw a pic that beauty credit has bb cream too.

snowdust, you can try to ask them if they can let u have a sample. The SA that served me did offer, but I tried it out on my hand and jawline, and decided to buy the product itself.

miao, I love that the Ginko BB cream does not do that. a LOT of foundations oxidize on my. Don't know if it is because of my oily skin. Sometimes, even some foundations can turn my complexion kind of ashy looking after some hours of wear, not sure if I am paranoid or what. But I can see that the complexion became duller.

This Ginko BB cream does not. So i am like .....

When I use it, my complexion seems to be fresher and healthier looking.

I got the Skin food Green gingko BB cream shade 01 from Raffles City last evening. Tried it under moisturiser today. It is quite thick and difficult to spread, maybe I'm just not used to it. The texture is similar to a sunblock texture. At first it looks white on my Chanel Clair, RMK 101, KP 10skin but after a while it settles in and looks natural. I use it with a cream blush without any powder.

Came to work and colleague mentioned it looks natural and glowly. Of course, it has only been 3 hrs, wait till end of the day! Haha. I admit it is more natural then my usual, base, powder, powder blush makeup. Skin feels soft, can't help to touch my face every now and then. Its time saving, cheap. I will pbserve closely if there is any skincare effects.

Meanwhile, lets keep exploring this new miracle product here!!
