BB and CC Creams Review ( Pond's Flawless White, Avon Skin Goodness CC Cream, Myra VitaGlow BB Cream )

I'm back...!!!!!.Sorry for not updating my page because I've been so busy for the past months. Anyway, let me feature this three BB and CC creams. I'll make it short, simple and direct to the point since I'm currently in a state where I run out of words to use when writing. hahaha.


Pond's Flawless White BB+ Cream.
I already featured the Pond's Age Miracle BB Cream here and its one of the products that I would personally recommend because of the results and the staying power of it without retouching. When I found out that Pond's released the bb cream version of Flawless White in a small tube for 150pesos, I never had a second thought of trying it. This one has the same level of longevity compare to the Pond's Age Miracle BB Cream, only problem here is the shade because its a little too white for my complexion. I guess the remedy there is to put some powder 1 shade darker. In terms of the whitening effect, well I don't feel the effect on it but probably it will manifest the result if you use it for a month or two. Some of my friends used this I noticed the difference. It lightens their complexion without looking too odd. I guess the shade of this didnt match to my skin tone. They already released the this same bottle in a darker shade so probably I'll try that soon.

Avon Skin Goodness CC Cream
CC Creams that was launched by other brands was kind of expensive so when I found out that Avon launched their own version of CC cream in an affordable price of 299pesos ( it was on sale that time) , I never hesitated to try this. Also one of my friends got this one so I tried it  first before ordering it. I noticed that it lightens my skin tone without looking awful , hahaha. I love it honestly. Only concern for this tube is  the staying power. It only last for 4 hours then later then I need to put some loose powder. I got an oily skin type. Well, I would still buy another one of these because I'm satisfied with the results.


Myra VitaGlow BB Cream
I guess this is the most affordable bb cream in the country from the trusted company, Myra. I'm surprised to found out that this one only cost 99pesos. I selected Ivory which is their lighter shades but they also have a darker shade but the saleslady suggested to choose the lighter one since I got an acidic skin type where the bb cream will become darker after few hours. The girls will definitely like this because it has a shimmery effect but guys can still wear this because the shimmery effect is not too apparent. My only concern here is  it gets easily washed out when you sweat. Other bb creams was actually hard to remove by using water. Well, you get what you paid for. But the shimmery effect still in your face so just put some powder.

There you have it. Hope this article will help you decide on buying bb and cc creams. I'll still feature other bb and creams since I believe that these kind cream is a good choice instead of using powder because it contains skin care benefits that you need all packed into one so gone are the days of putting lots of stuffs in your face.

Nature Republic Collagen HD Primer BB Cream Review

 Got this in search of the best BB creams in the market.Since Etude and Face Shop are some of the top korean branded beauty store so I tried Nature Republic.I'm impressed that all of their products use natural ingredients so I give it a shot to try it.The saleslady recommended me this tube because she said that it's one of their best-selling bb creams in their store called Nature Republic Collagen HD Primer BB Cream.I for got how much exactly ( I'm so sorry, :((( )...but one this is for sure, it's below 500pesos.





This one only have one shade and it's a bit lighter than my skin.I thought that the shade is perfect when I tested it to the store.What I usually do is I mixed it to my favorite moisturizer so it'll tone down the shade although from full coverage, it'll become medium coverage.I guess for the girls, you can put a little powder which is a bit darken.In short, this bb cream is perfect as a base makeup.


So sad this product doesn't have a moisturizing benefits.I thought that the collagen will help to hydrate my skin it it seems like it only works to make your skin look firmer and glowing.


I'm also sad that this product has a short staying power.After 3-4hours, it gives you a white cast when you take a picture.The pores becomes more noticeable so have no choice but to remove some excess oil and put some powder.


Final Verdict:

Nature Republic Collagen HD Primer BB Cream is a nice product for those who do makeup because it's perfect to use as a base because it's lighter but sadly not perfect for those who'll use bb cream alone.Frankly I consider this more as a liquid foundation because bb cream should have a moisturizing content but it doesn't.

P.S: I got an oily-dry combo skin type so this review so possible that this product might be suitable for those who have a normal skin,


Good thing about buying this is it comes with a trial sachet of some of their moisturizers like this one.I wanna try this snail solution 70.It seems like its a booming trend of using moisturizers that has a snail saliva or something.at first it's a bit slimy but I noticed a little improvement in my skin.

Pond's Age Miracle BB+ Cream Consumer Review

Got totally surprised that I got 69+ views about my recent review that I made for EB Advance BB Cream s I'm so inspired writing another review.The product that I'm going to feature is Pond's Age Miracle BB+ Cream.Actually I want to try the bb creams available in Watson's before trying the korean-branded ones.I usually buy products that offers more than the other products.This one is cool because aside from the basic benefits of bb cream, this beauty tube has an anti-ageing ingredient called Intelligent Pro-Cell Complex.Guys, just a tip on buying bb cream, some products claim their product that has an anti-wrinkle formula but that means that it'll conceal the fine lines temporarily but doesn't reduce it.Pond's bb cream have that ingredient.I'm 25 years old and I'm using it just t prevent the signs of ageing the fact that work in a stressful worn environment and lifestyle.What I love about this product is the shade is a bit darker compare to the previous bb cream that I used so this is perfect for morena girls.This one only cost 499 pesos which is fine.Pond's also released their whitening version of bb cream called Pond's Flawless White BB+ Cream.This one has the same shade w/ the Age Miracle one.The only difference is it has the whitening content and they have a small version of it in an 8 grams tube for 139 pesos.I'll use that one soon.

Final Verdict: 

Pond's Age Miracle BB+ Cream is the best bb cream that I used so far because it offers more than the other bb cream in the market because it has an anti-ageing components and the shades is what I want w/c is not too light.I'll give it a 5 out of 5 stars.This is also the only bb cream where I don't to use pore minimizer, blotting paper or powder even a moisturizer.BB cream should be like that.Everything that you need for your face in one tube

Ever Bilena Advance BB Cream Review

This is my first time to post an review of the products that I used personally.I want to expand my audience by creating articles not just about fashion but also about other stuffs that other people might be interested.I'll make sure that I'll an honest reviews ( even the not so good feedback but don't worry I'll do it in a sugar-coated way. )

For the first item.Last year I just started using BB cream.Its a foundation-moisturizer-sunscreen cream.I was convinced to use because of my fondness to K-Pop artist. hahaha. Like seriously.Korean artist are proud of using it the fact that it's still consider as a cosmetic product here in the Philippines.Korean-branded beauty store like Etude, Face Shop and Tony Moly are the ones who started this trend so some of the western cosmetic company like Maybelline , L'oreal and Revlon also come up w/ their versions.But I dont want to spend that much for a product that I'm about to start.Thank God Ever Bilena, have their version of BB cream called Ever Bilena Advance BB Cream.I got it for 199 pesos.They have 2 variants, one is Whitening and the one that I got is Anti-Wrinkle.In the first few days, I was quite not comfortable wearing it because the shade is quite lighter that my skin tone in my arms.So to fix that, I mix it w/ my favorite moisturizer to tone  down the shade.I got accustomed wearing it.My officemates noticed the korean-effect glow in my skin.I also noticed that my skin got softer ans smoother.That's because this bb cream has Jojoba Oil.My only concern in this product is after a few months, the oil get separated to the cream itself so after the few drops of it, its hard to apply it in my skin.

So my verdict??? Ever Bilena Advance BB Cream is an affordable bb cream made by the trusted and well-established brand and of course it's a filipino brand which I think we should patronize first before trying other imported brands.My suggestion here for this bb cream is to improve the formulation to avoid separating the jojoba oil to the cream so it'll not affect the effectivity of it and also hoping that they could come up with additional shades like a bit darker that this one.

There you have it.Hope you like this article.Feel free to leave a comment on this article ( even if its the harsh one.I admit, my English is not that perfect. hahaha )Watch out for my next review...
