Part 1 Review: CheekRoom's BB cream and Lipstick

Oh yes! My first blog is in purple! Haha! :D

Hello everyone! It took me a long time to actually have the guts to do a blog on everything cutesy and of course make-ups!

I would like to share with you my thoughts on CheekRoom's BB cream and Lipstick in shade 08. This will be a 2-part review: PART 1 - BB cream and PART 2 - Lipstick. 

So let's get started!!! 

This is the packaging of CheekRoom (BB cream:left; Lipstick:right) Made in Korea.

Soooo retro and I love it!!! And doesn't she remind you of Scarlett Johansson? I have to do some research on this...

PART 1: The BB cream. 

To tell you the truth, this is just my second purchase of BB cream. The first BB cream I purchased was Maybelline's. That was like years ago and it was indeed a love-hate relationship for me. I will make a separate review on that. :p I hardly experiment on BB creams because some are pricey. Well, back to CheekRoom... So here is their packaging..

(I don't know if you can see that it's wrapped in plastic..)

 (They only have 1 shade on this one)

 (Unlike other BB creams, this one has a foil cap on the nozzle.)

SWATCH TIME!

 (BEFORE: The back of my hand ---- hello lines and brown spots! O_o)

(Its consistency is not in the liquid side nor on the thick side. Just in the mid.)

(AFTER: Can you see the difference? :D No more lines and no more brownish spots!)

My thoughts:

1. The packaging - It is so girly as you can see. Retro vibe! The tube has this matte feel and is very well sealed. The only downside with the whole packaging is that there is NO english translation! :( Quite sad. You won't be able to appreciate or even have an idea about what's in it and its description. The only words I can "read" were Hydro-Cellulose, Alkyl Sylane Treated Pigment and lilium Candidim Flower Extract. 

2. The product itself - I know you have heard the "golden rule" on BB creams... That a pea-size goes a long way.. This particular BB cream is an exemption to that rule! A pea-size won't do it! It will just cover a part of your face. So a pea-size on one cheek, another on the other cheek, another on the forehead.... I guess you know what I mean, right? :p It also dries quickly so apply it by portion, meaning, once you placed a pea-size on the cheek, blend away! But the great thing about this product is that it really gives you a very smooth "canvass"! Have you guys tried Watson's Collagen hand cream? That's the closest description I could compare it. Very smooth indeed. :)  And if your skin is oily (like mine), then you will definitely love this! It will not stop your oiliness 100% but you'll find yourself not reaching for your blotting paper as often as you did before, which is a great thing! It also has this flowery smell to it. It doesn't bother me so it's no biggie. :) It does not leave a white cast or make your face gray, it really blends well, feels like your second skin. I was quite amazed actually. :) OH, just be careful when removing the foil cap on the nozzle. It has this tendency to squirt some product.

3. The price - Php 299.00 for a 30mL tube. Not bad. :)

4. Will I recommend this? - Heck yah I will! :)

I bought this at Robinson's Galleria. They were like a month old when I bought the BB cream and Lipstick. I don't know if they have other stalls.

I hope you guys find this informative! :)
