A clear and white face is never necessary. A bright and clean looking one on the other hand is essential. Not only to make you look good but also to make you feel good. Ever heard of that punchline which goes,
'How can you solve a problem if your problem is your face?'. Well, I don't think us girls need to solve a lot because a number of face products can help us.
I am probably lucky because I don't have so many things to cover on face. By that, I don't have to buy myself a heavy duty product for my face.
PACKAGING
The packaging of the cream is nothing special.It's just a plastic tube where you have to do a little squeezing to get the cream out of it. Nothing fancy but I love how they provide all the facts that their customers have to know when buying their product. A detailed description about the product including it's ingredients and manufacturing information were all written at the back portion of the tube.
PRICE
I bought the BB cream for 120.00 PHP that's 2.655 USD. A very affordable and reasonable price. Perfect for students who are still saving up.
WHERE TO BUY
Careline BB Cream is available on Watsons nationwide. It is also available in the beauty or body essentials section in some malls.
Careline BB Cream in Fresh has a pink undertone. It instantly makes the skin lighter, but as some of you may already know by now, it is best suited for people with medium to fair skin tone. If you have a darker skin tone, you may opt for another shade just like the ones which has a yellow undertone. Careline BB Cream by the way comes in three different shades- fresh, nude and tan. Fresh is the lightest, nude is in medium tone while tan is the darkest shade although it doesn't really look that dark.
Here's a before and after shot that I took for you to see the effect of the BB Cream. I didn't edit the pics but the light is not that good and it's probably too light, especially in the part near my forehead. I don't know, perhaps I should take another photos. lelz.
UHm, yeah that's the
bagong ligo me
hahaha. I mustered every ounce of confidence I have for the sake of this review!
charot!
As you can see, I don't have so much pimples but I do have an uneven skin tone especially in the center of my face. The coverage of the cream is just "okay" but duh, what can you expect from a 120php BB cream? nothing much but I love how it evens out my skin tone!
I use Careline's BBB Cream when I don't have to go somewhere special. From my own experience, it could lasts up to four (4) to five (5) hours without any retouch. But you gotta need a face powder if you are sweaty like me.
The only thing that I do not like most about the cream is its smell. I don't know how to exactly describe its smell but it does smell a little bit like a cheap makeup? I don't know really. Well it's cheap but you know that usual
"cheap makeup smell"? basta, you'll know what I mean when you smell it! But it's not bad, it's just a little bothering for those who have sensitive smell. It doesn't really bother me but if you are very particular in it's smell, maybe you wouldn't like the cream.
PRO's
- very affordable
- evens out skin tone
- lasts long considering its price
- readily available
- doesn't feel heavy on the skin
CON's
- has a somewhat bothering smell
- doesn't come in so many shades
Careline's BB Cream isn't definitely the best out there, but I think it's a decent one considering its price. I think it's perfect if you don't have to go somewhere really special. If you've tried the BB cream before, let me know your thoughts about it on the comment section below.
love lots,
