[baviphat] Funky Look Smoothing BB Cream *Pore Care Bright*

When I get a new BB Cream I usually start using it as soon as possible but somehow I didn't do that with the Funky Look Smoothing BB Cream from [baviphat] I got last year. I wanted to keep it until I used up some other ones but I noticed yesterday that most of my [baviphat] items are manufactured in 2010. Therefore, I have to use the stuff now - also this BB Cream.

The product description says that this Smoothing BB Cream is good for oily skin and for covering larger pores.

I got shade #1 Pore Care Bright. I think there was a darker color, too. But I'm not sure if this product is still available in Korea.

Description: This BB Cream helps fight oil secretion and reduces pore visibility thanks to its rosemary extracts. Also features SPF30 PA++ sun protection.

 The light pink/green tube is flat and contains 35ml. The twist-off lid is green as well.

The Smoothing BB Cream contains the following main ingredients:

Portulaca Oleracea (Purslane) Extract: Moisturizing & Soothing Effect

Luffa Cylindrica (Sponge Luffa) Extract: Moisturizing Effect & Clean Skin Tone

Rosemary Extract: Sebum Control & Pore Care

#1 Pore Care Bright is a light beige without a gray or pinkish undertone. The consistency is not too thick and creamy but also not very watery. The coverage is just light to medium but it's fine for me. The scent is soft what I really like.

I can say after wearing this BB Cream for over 10 hours that I really like it and I don't know why I didn't try it out earlier. The color fits my real skin tone well, the coverage is ok, my skin feels super smooth after applying the BB and my pores are less visible. I also didn't notice any breakouts yet which might come from this BB Cream.  

The Smoothing BB Cream doesn't really give my face a matte finish and the oil control is not the best, though. In the afternoon my skin looked shiny again.

Price: around 11,- €/ US$15

Bought at: eBay (BELLOGIRL)     

What I love: 

Almost everything! I like this BB Cream a lot. 

What I don’t like: 

Just the oil control again but this problem I will have with every BB Cream. 

Will I buy this again? I think I would but I'm not sure if it's still available or already discontinued.

[MISSHA] The style Art Designing Pore Silky Boomer

I'm a person who doesn't like the Korean brand [MISSHA] a lot. I can't really tell why but I prefer other brands with cute designs like 'ETUDE HOUSE, Holika Holika or baviphat'. When I was looking for a new Primer that is good for oily skin and/ or large pores I came to The style Art Designing Pore Silky Boomer - by [MISSHA]. Somehow I found it interesting and ordered it.

The following products are also available:

- Pore Cover Balm

- Moisture Boomer

- Cashmere Loose Powder

- Makeup Fix

- Foundation

- Powder Pact

- Base

Description: Pore control boomer to form a shield on uneven skin for flawless and sleek skin.

Perfect Pore-Control & Multi-Moisture Mechanism & Anti-Wrinkle Makeup

The packaging is pearl pink with some white 'snowflakes' on it. Unfortunately, my camera doesn't show the color well. The decription is in Korean and English.

The tube is long and slim. It's also light pink with the same design as the packaging. It has a simple twist-off lid and contains 30ml.

The Pore Silky Boomer is white and has a liquid consistency (like a serum/ emulsion). I like the fragrance of it very much!

I can't see that this boomer covers my enlarged pores but my skin feels more sleek and silky smooth after applying. My skin looks a bit mattified as well. Sadly, the oil control doesn't last for a long time on my face and I think I get some breakouts of it, too.

Price: around 14,- €/ US$18 
Bought at: eBay (BELLOGIRL)   

What I love: 

The fragrance and the silky smooth feeling. 

What I don’t like:  

The oil control isn't good enough for me and I think it gives me breakouts.

Will I buy this again? No, I don't think so.
