Review: Missha M Perfect Cover BB Cream SPF 42 PA+++

"Sometimes I pretend to be normal but it gets boring so I go back to being me~"
-unknown

Last night I asked one of my bosses what they call the white japanese doll they hang on windows when it's raining. After a while, he returned and showed the doll he made out of tissue! I found out it's called rain doll or 'teru teru bozu'. It is usually hung upright in the hopes of making the rain stop but yet when it's turned upside down it becomes a prayer for rain. Neat huh? Magically the rain stopped a few minutes after the doll was hung on our office door. Sugoi~ (cool)

Today I've just published a page that will be updated daily with the current shopping sales in the Metro. Feel free to bookmark or share sales you might know here: Shopping Sale Alert 2016. The product I will review for today is Missha M Perfect Cover BB Cream SPF 42 PA+++ in Light beige No. 21.


What is it?
Missha M Perfect Cover BB cream offers a novel skincare concept with BB cream, which lightens skin tone by healing visible wrinkles and blemishes with excellent skin-cover ability and prevents skin ageing through effective whitening and anti-wrinkle properties.

A closer look at the box
Yes, it does contain paraben and mineral oil, if you might be wondering...


 They have some other shades, I swatched Shade No. 23 in their kiosk in Landmark but it's a bit darker than me. I was afraid for it to oxidize on me so I chose a lighter shade.



Packaging 
Classy maroon colour for the plastic tube. The pump is working perfectly and dispenses just the right amount of product each time.

Experience
I have high expectations with Missha M Perfect Cover BB cream, it's a popular product. Upon using it I can say the coverage is in between light to medium. I only need 1-2 pumps to cover my face so I think this will last me a long time.

I don't have dark eye circles but it surely brightens up my under-eye area. For dark marks or red pimples, I needed some concealer to cover it up. I think I will need a green concealer to cross out the redness. It also minimizes my pores for a while until by the time that it blends with my skin tone. I like that it also moisturizes my skin and it doubles as a sunblock. 42 PA+++ sun protection is awesome, but maybe it's also the reason why it gives this weird grey cast. I won't try getting near a flash from a camera while I am wearing this.


To tell you honestly, this bb cream feels heavy. I always make sure that there is no bb residue left behind after washing because it can surely lead to a bad breakout. It also can't be used alone because it makes my face sticky like it'll attract all the dust and pollution by the time I go out of the house. I lightly dust powder on top of Missha M Perfect Cover and I am good to go.


How much and where to buy it?
₱560.00 at Althea

What I love
  • Coverage is light to medium and acts like a second skin
  • Doesn't break me out
  • Smells like flowers <3
  • Minimizes the appearance of pores
  • Brightens under the eye area
  • Blends with the skin after a few minutes
  • Moisturizing and doesn't accentuate dry patches
  • Stays all day
  • Makes me look like I'm fresh and blooming (lol)
  • Affordable!
What I don't
  • Can be layered but might not give enough coverage
  • Grey cast on flash camera
  • A bit heavy and sticky on humid days
  • Contains paraben and mineral oil
TIPS 
Try using a brush to distribute the product evenly on your face
If using cream blush use it after using the bb cream

Will I repurchase? 
Yes! I recommend this to busy girls like me who like multi-purpose products.

Overall~
Missha M Perfect Cover BB cream is a great bb cream for the price. I can't say anything more, the coverage, the scent, the sturdy packaging and the SPF 42 PA+++



Aju Nice!~ Seventeen's newest comeback. I love this song right now~
I'm off to a dance practice later. A great way to break my work-house routine yay <33

TOP 5 Beauty Products in my Wish List



We all know how much Pinoys love Christmas. Our country has actually earned the distinction of celebrating the world's longest Christmas season! And to kick off the BER month and because I am still not on my shopping mode, haha let me share the Top 5 makeup in my wish list.


1. MAYBELLINE New York Dream Satin Skin Foundation
100% Poreless Look Airbrush Perfection
P499

It was love at first swatch! I tried it on and I really love how dreamy it glided on skin. And it is boyfie approved! More plus points for that. He said it really looks good on me. That was like the first time he complimented my makeup. Looool~ Indeed it made my face look luminous, wow~
Nowadays I am more into convenient but light and long lasting makeup. Will this Maybelline foundation make the cut?
I am looking forward into getting a bottle and reviewing it fully in my blog. 

2. THE BODY SHOP Lip & Cheek Stain
This dual-purpose liquid stain gives lips and cheeks a hint of natural-looking colour. Can be used under gloss for added intensity.

I have been lemming for this like forever! It has been on sale for a few times already and I still haven't got a tube. How sad life can be? I tried this one before, (thank you so much friend!) and I can say that Tony Moly Cherry Apple tint is one good dupe.
However years later, I still want THE BODY SHOP tint, hopefully I'll have the guts to buy a bit-steep-for-me tint for myself this Christmas (or on my birthday!)



3. DIOR ADDICT LIP GLOW
The first universal balm by Dior reacts to the unique chemistry of each woman's lips to give them a natural flush of custom pink that suits her skin tone. As if revived from within, lips are fresh, full and radiant.

I am curious into how this one works. I saw my workmate used this and it turned somehow coral on her. Fascinating really, but the price is really high for a balm. Huehue~ This one might be on my wishlist forever.

4. KATE Goldish Eyes
As expected I can't easily find a photo for this eyeshadow. I remember seeing this sparkly eyeshadow from the japanese girl who assisted us in the airport. I am hands down mesmerized because it really looks stunning. I don't like sparkles on my face but on my eyes, its just yes yes and yes~

Originally developed as a salve for patients after laser treatment, BB Cream’s soothing and regenerative properties were adapted for cosmetics to improve skin while providing coverage. This product promotes natural-looking coverage while providing sun protection, treating dark spots, and preventing wrinkles. 

This is another multi-purpose product I am so fond of. I love how BB cream is so convenient. I tried several brands already and this one is something I don't want to miss especially because of all the raves. Will buy this one day.

And there you have it! The Top makeup products in my wishlist. :)

In case you are wondering, the guy in my right is my good buddy Louie. Hello there! 
Feel free to share products in your Wishlist as well. Until then, hope you have an amazing week ahead! To end this post lets watch a throwback Christmas performance from SNSD.  Very sexy~ <3
