[MAKEUP REVIEW] INNISFREE NO SEBUM BB CREAM SPF 30 PA++ #02 NATURAL BEIGE

“One is not enough.” The sentence is true when we are talking about BB Cream, right? Even we’ve already had one or two BB cream products, everytime we know other brands we just want to try them. That’s why we’re called women, LOL. So guys, for today I’m going to make a review about one of my BB cream from Innisfree. Actually, it is not my favorite BB cream at this time, but it was. I don’t want to talk too much, so let’s started!

NAME:

NO SEBUM BB CREAM SPF 30 PA++

BRAND:

INNISFREE

COLORS:

#02 NATURAL BEIGE

WEIGHT:

40 ml

PRICE:

USD 21.00

This BB cream is one of Innisfree’s No Sebum series. It’s in the same line with its No Sebum Mineral Powder and No Sebum Primer. I think the Mineral Powder is the best sale of all. There’s a lot of reviews for this powder, mostly is great. No wonder la since the oil control of it is so awesome. I love the powder so much and always repurchase when runs out. Then I thought, why don’t I buy the BB cream of this No Sebum Series? So yeah, I bought No Sebum BB cream and hope it would be as great as the powder.

Descriptions

The naturally derived mineral sebum controlling powder adsorbs excessive sebum on skin surface, helping to present a non-greasy, soft, and powdery complexion all day long.

It also claims for its four main expertises: oil control, long lasting, no darkening, effective coverage. The product contains Jeju mineral powder and Jeju green tea, I love green tea so soo much...

Packaging

The outer box is so into Innisfree, so simple and clean. Of course, like always, it is printed with soy ink. Innisfree is well known for its natural and green concept. I think that’s my first reason why I’ve tried and now falling in love with their products. You can see the outer package by clicking the pictures to zoom.

The product itself came in a white plastic tube.  Like no other BB cream packaging, Innisfree made it into a flat tube and the size isn’t that big for its 40 ml content. That’s why it doesn’t come in a pump type. I like the package because it is very friendly to my makeup pouch, so I can bring it anywhere I like in my pouch.

Don’t have anything else to be told since the tube is kinda plain and not that cute, LOL. Just see the pictures!

Scent

Like the Powder, it has natural herbal and mint scent. But this one is quite strong than the Powder’s scent and it won’t disappear once you blend the cream T_T The scent stays quite long. You might don’t like the scent if you dislike herbal scent. I felt weird too when smelt this BB cream for the first time, but then be ‘okay’ after several times using it. In fact, it won’t make you can’t breath while using this BB cream, LOL.

Texture

Sometimes BB cream with matte finish and high coverage comes in a creamy and thick texture, so does it. Well, it’s not that thick like soo thiiicckk~ at all since it’s blended quite easily. But I believe if you have dry skin, you won’t like it. Though I have an oily skin and this BB cream is smooth in texture, I have to make sure that my skin is well moistened before applying it, or the result will be clumpy.

Result

You can see on my pictures, once applied and blended it became soo white like crazy. Look at the difference of my skin color on my back palm. Btw, when I apply the BB cream on my face, it was like a naughty ghost for awhile, LOL. After some minutes, about 10-15 minutes, it will blend naturally with your own skin. Pheww... Oh, thank you.

The result is totally matte! As an oily combination-skin person, I like it.  It also has good oil control, especially when you set it together with the No Sebum Powder. My experience, use it alone without the Powder will keep you from oily face for about 3-4 hours. And with the Powder used, it can stay non-oily up till 6 hours. Hmm... quite good!

Sorry, I didn’t include the waterproof test pictures, but this BB cream is waterproof. I had some effort to erase the swatches on my hand with water. Finally I decided to use oil cleanser.

The coverage is medium. It can cover up my dark circle and uneven skin tone, also most of my scars. But it doesn’t work that well for my super red blemishes. I still need concealer because this BB cream is not buildable. You will end up with cakey result if you use it more than one layer.

Overall, it was my favorite base makeup last summer since my country has crazy summertime. But these latest days when it becomes rainy oftentimes and colder, I need a base makeup that has more moistfull effect to my face which is this product doesn’t have. Besides, nowdays I am becoming a fan of glowy makeup ^_^

The conclusion, I love using No Sebum BB Cream when my skin is in a good condition (read: no red blemish and moistfull ) since the formula of this BB is not buildable. I have to make sure using it in a proper amount, so it won’t be cakey. I’ll give it 4 stars of 5 (actually because it’s Innisfree, LOL).

My FOTD using Innisfree No Sebum BB Cream + The Powder
I should cut my bangs and bring it back again -.-

What I like :

• Good oil control
• Perfect when I want a matte makeup
• Waterproof
• Good coverage
• No greyish effect
• No breakout

What I Dislike :

• The smell maybe too strong
• Sometime it will be cakey under eye area and smile-line (Don’t blot it with tissue, it just will make it more noticeable. I usually use my face mist then pat it gently with sponge to fix it)

I don’t recommend No Sebum BB Cream for everyone who has dry skin or you all who doesn’t like matte finish. This Bb Cream is good for you with oily skin or you all who loves matte skin.

Finally, that’s all for today. I hope this review will help you. So guys have you tried this BB Cream? What do you think about this BB Cream?

THANK YOU FOR READING AND SEE YOU ON MY NEXT POST!

HAVE A GREAT DAY!
