What the packaging looks like? 




The packaging is 9/10. Love the pakaging super sleek. Thumbs up! It contains 20ml of product which is pretty small. Similar to the Maybelline BB Cream :) 




Reminds me of Ponds BB Cream :) 

Ingredients 





Swatch 

Im in the shade 01 (ivory) 


The product is creamy, not watery. Lets try to blend the product. 


Application 

I have combination skin. Some parts of my face is super dry and some parts is super oily. 


  After applying first layer of this BB cream.

As you can see it didnt cover my acne marks. It look patchy. My cheek area is so dry. Not a big fan of the moisturizing power of this BB cream. It didnt give the coverage that i want. 


After applying second layer. It looks worst. It looks super cakey. Looking cakey makes you look old. Definitely big no no. 


Likes: 
- contains SPF 30 which will protect our skin
- packaging is nice
- travel friendly 
- doesn't contain parabens 
- smells so good 
- it covers a bit of my red spots 

Dislikes:
- accentuates my fine lines! Big no no. 
- it claims to have no fragrance
- because it is so creamy it tends to look cakey 
- it doesnt do great job covering my dark spots 

Overall 
Not a good BB cream for me but definitely a good make up base. I try using this under my maybelline bb cream and boom! It looks so good. I have tons of acne marks due to lack of sleep and stress i need more coverage. (Maybelline bb cream is still my number one bb cream. )

Will i buy this product again? 
Maybe! Im using it as make up base. It works good. 

How much is this product?

Make-up Essential for beginners...:)

All About JC Jants

Yea, so its been an issue for me whether what is really really my make up essentials. What I must have in my make up kit, if I'm on really tight budget? What make up I really need?

 There's a lot of make up products out there. So it is really really hard to choose if what make up you really need for everyday look. Of course, there are liquid foundations, concealers, mascara, bronzers, blush, lipsticks, eye shadows, pencil liner, highlighter, liquid liner and etc. So I've been thinking about what make up product that I can't live without. Its super hard to choose because I love make up.


If you are on really tight budget and want to look fabulous. Then you must evaluate what you like, what you love, and just go with it.

There are like a lot of make up product that I will die just to have it but After how many hours of evaluating, my MUST HAVE make up essentials:

1). FOUNDATION/ BB CREAM:

                     I can't live without foundation or BB cream. You see I don't have the most amazing skin. And I'm very insecure with my face, so I always want my face to look flawless. Foundation/ BB cream helps cover my flaws.





2). LIQUID LINER:

             I love liquid eye liner to death. It saves my life. Liquid liner makes my eyes pop, smaller, look like an anime. I'm not impress with gel liner for some reason. I guess it is because it dries out easily and I have oily skin so it tends to smudge which I hate. At the end of the day I look like I've been punch or I have black eye which is not good at all. And it also makes my eye bags look very visible. So, I'm not a fan of gel liner.
 





3). CONCEALER
   
          If I can't live without my foundation then I also can't live without my concealer. Concealer have always been my best friend for the past years. I always always have to have a concealer in my make up kit. Concealer for me is a miracle make up product ever. It makes my imperfections vanish. I super love concealer.




4). LIP TINT

        Yes, I can't live without my lip tint. It is very important to me. In my last make up review (nichido lipstick) I said that I'm not a fan of lip stick. Yes I'm not a fan of lipstick, maybe because I haven't tried high ends lipstick or maybe I'm just not comfortable wearing lipstick. Here in our place, make up is a very big deal for them I just don't know why. If your wearing make up then they stare at you and start talking about you which is so weird, it is very uncomfortable.




     I love lip tint because it looks very natural and unlike lipstick it is not sticky. One more thing why I love lip tint, is because you can also use it as your blush which is amazing. That's the reason why I didn't include blush in my list of make up essentials.



               There are lot of products (cosmetics) in the world and not all are affordable. So if youre beginner or just starting to collect make up for your make up kit then always make sure that you have all the products listed. There are high ends brands and also drugstore brands for all this make up products, they are all your choice. So don't forget that looking your best doesn't have to be expensive. Till next time. :)
