BB Creams: Quick Comparison VII


***Please click on the Label "BB Cream Quick Comparison Series" to read my other BB Cream posts***


As promised here are the other 6 BB Creams I wanted to review.
Most of this batch don't work for me because either the color or texture doesn't suit me.


1: Hanskin Water Action BB Cream SPF27 PA++ 43.5g:


This BB Cream doesn't work for me for several reasons.
First it's so thin and sheer it's totally useless. If I use BB Cream I want some coverage and the new Hanskin BB Cream doesn't provide anything but super sheer coverage.
The other reason is that even though it's super sheer it manages to make my face look orange and weird.
A big nay from me.
The texture is very lightweight thus probably more suitable for oilier skin-types. This carries a light scent and cost me about 22000 Won if I remember correctly.

2: Skin79 Dream Girls BB SPF30 PA++ 43.5g:


Lightweight O/W formula suitable more for oilier skin-types. Offers UVA and UVB protection.
Contains Papaya extract and licorice.
This lightly scented BB Cream is supposed to be formulated for younger girls who need little coverage and more oil control.
Even though the cream looks very pale on the swatch it oxidizes quickly to a darker brown color (you can see it on the bottom of the swatch) so it's not working for me.
Definitely don't like this because of sheer coverage and bad color match.
I purchased this as a special set containing 2 of the BB Creams and a Crystal Pact (which also is too dark for me). all cost me 22000 Won so it was an utter waste of money.

3: BRTC Jasmin Water BB Cream SPF30 40ml:


I had this on my Gmarket wishlist for about 2 months now and just never ordered it because 39000 Won seemed a bit pricey for a BB Cream.
Anyway, I finally caved and ordered it as it came with a free lipgloss (1 color, out of 3, randomly selected) and I had tried a sample of this before and liked it.
First this comes in a very pretty pearly lavender squeeze tube and has the prettiest scent of all BB Creams. The soft Jasmin scent is very pleasant and calming.
The BB Cream contains 5% Jasmin water and has the added benefits of whitening, reducing wrinkles and sun protection (no PA listed though).
I actually am not sure yet if this BB Cream works for me. While it's quite light-toned it has rather strong orange tones I feel get a bit obvious on my skin. The medium coverage and beautiful softly dewy finish is very pretty and you notice that this is a high-quality thus pricier BB Cream but I am just not sure if the color is really right.
This feels very moisturizing but not sticky or heavy.
I paid 39000 Won for the BB Cream and a gloss (sure they sent me the clear gloss which is something I never use anyway *sigh*)

4: Zamian Magic Cacao Whitening BB Cream Shining Water 43.5g:


I never heard of this brand before and stumbled across their BB Cream more on coincidence.
I ordered the BB Cream for 18000 Won and it also came with a huge tube of Gold Cacao face mask, a big tube of cleansing foam and 2 bars of hand made soap. Quite worthwhile.
However the BB Cream is the most disappointing item of the lot as it's just downright too orange for me, even though it looks lighter in the swatch.
The BB Cream has a very faint scent which is quite pleasant among the rows of heavily fragranced BB Creams.
The finish of this is satiny, not really dewy nor matte.

5: Begin My Pride BB Sun Blemish Balm SPF46 PA++ 50ml:


I ordered couple of kits from Begin My Pride, a brand I had never heard of before. I have to say their lipglosses and mascara are great and their powder is good, too.
However the BB Cream totally fails for me as it's too dark.
Since it's so dark I washed it off right away so can't say much about its qualities.
It's lightly fragranced and offers medium coverage if I remember right.
I paid 29000 Won and the BB Cream came with another full size BB Cream, a volume mascara (quite good), a loose highlighter and a little puff and brush.
(Btw the design reminds me of Elisha Coy! Especially the logo!)

6: Enprani Super Aqua BB SPF27 PA++:


I reviewed this already here.
It looks very pale and I can wear this, at least as makeup base but it's very sheer and I prefer BB Creams offering more coverage.
I will keep this and try using it up but definitely won't repurchase.

If you have very dry or mature skin I might suggest you try out Enprani S,Claa Revive Blemish Recover. It's a super rich thick moisturizing BB Cream with medium coverage. It was way too rich for my skin but if you're seriously dry this would be a good choice.
I have one sample sachet I can mail to someone who's interested. Just email me at lotuspalace@gawab.com.

BB Creams: Quick Comparison VI


***Please click on the Label "BB Cream Quick Comparison Series" to read my other BB Cream posts***

I have 12 BB Creams to review so I will post them in 2 comparisons.
I will start with 6 BB Creams now and continue with the rest later.


1: Clamue Watery Luminous Mineral BB Cover 50g:


This is quite different from most other BB Creams. It has a very light runny texture and a weird yellowish color. The finish of this is a soft matte whereas most BB Creams look dewy.
Even though the color looks totally off in the swatch this spreads to a beautiful very pale yellowish cream shade that blends in very well with my natural skin color. I was a bit hesitant trying this out but it's in fact a pretty good product.
It offers relatively good coverage which astonished me a bit due to the runny texture.
According to Clamue this is suitable for sensitive skin-types.
This comes in 2 colors, the one I picked is #01.
The BB Cream carries a light floral perfume.
I paid 11000 Won which was a special offer (60% off regular retail).
Comes in a squeeze tube with pump dispenser.

2: Belita Lala Multi Effect All Day BB Cream SPF21 50g:


I reviewed this here so won't go into details now.
I like this one very much as the color match is just perfect.

3: VOV Anti Trouble Blemish Balm SPF17 50g:


I already reviewed this in my Quick Comparison IV but then I only had the darker one in #23 whereas now I purchased #21 to try this out.
It's a little dark so probably would suit me in the summer when I am half shade darker. Anyways, it's a very basic BB Cream with sheer-medium coverage and a grayish pink color.
The tube is probably the ugliest one a BB Cream can come in as it looks so medicinal (the smell is, too). I prefer pretty ones like Lotree or Skin79 Diamond.
I paid only 6900 Won so it's one of the cheapest BB Creams I own.

4: Elisha Coy Always Nuddy BB 24 50ml:


From what I know the Always Nuddy BB 24 Cream is the most popular one in Japan and the star in Elisha Coy's lineup and the sample tube of this I have is printed in Japanese instead of Korean. However the full-sized tube is printed in English so I can give you some more details on this.
Elisha Coy is a great little brand offering only a few items including 2 BB Creams and an array of face masks.
I purchased 3 items from them and I believe I have now pretty much all items they have to offer as I got sample jars of pretty much all their masks.
The Always Nuddy BB Cream claims to be designed to feel and look like your natural skin.
The BB Creams contains botanical extracts and a minimum of chemicals to be suitable for the most sensitive skin-types.

They list 4 steps:
-Pore & Sebum Care - non irritating particles covering pores and controlling oil production
-Trouble soothing & Skin improvement - Chamomile, Portulaca Oleracea, botanical vitamins and Allantoin soothe skin
-Soft Application - Application is soft and easy to spread and won't feel sticky or heavy on face
-Macula Cover - covers freckles and other imperfections and makes skin look clear and healthy.

Elisha Coy claim to only use the finest highest-quality ingredients and they understand themselves as a modern European-style brand.
There is much more blabla in their little pamphlet but I want to proceed now to actually reviewing this.

I think this BB Cream is indeed a bit different from many other I tried. You really don't feel this when you wear it. It dries down to a soft matte powdery finish which is rather unique among the majority of dewy a bit heavier BB Creams. I believe the Always Nuddy BB 24 would suit oilier skin-tones perfectly as it can feel a bit drying on my normal-dry skin.
The color is a light neutral beige that would suite most light-medium complexions. It works for me but it's not the most perfect match. The BB Cream is lightly scented.
I paid 29000 Won and also received a Herb Clay Mask, a Milk Cacao Black Sugar Scrub and 15ml sample tubes of the Always Nuddy and Always Triple BB Creams.

5: Elisha Coy Always Triple BB SPF30 PA++ (non-chemical sunscreen) 50ml:


I couldn't resist ordering the other BB Cream (though the other one came with a sample tube of this). Anways, the Always Triple BB Cream is quite different from the Always Nuddy BB 24.
This BB Cream has the added benefits of:

-Whitening
-Wrinkle improvement
-SPF30 PA++ (UVA and UVB protection)

The Always Triple BB contains Royal Jelly and Caviar extracts as well as Portulaca Oleracea and Morus Alba Linne) to soothe and protect sensitive skin.

The Always Triple BB is richer than the Always Nuddy BB 24 so it suits my skin-type better.
However the color is a little dark for me. It also has more yellow tones so it's a bit off on me unfortunately.
The cream is lightly scented and comes in a black squeeze-tube.
I paid 33000 Won and received also a Herb Clay Mask, Cacao Greentea Age Fitness Mask and a 15ml sample tube of the Always Nuddy BB Cream.

6: IPKN Rejuvenate and Natural Cover BB Blemish Balm with Aloe Extract 30ml:


This is my first venture into IPKN New York. It's a Korean brand despite the addition New York (at least I only found a Korean website etc.).
Anyway, this was one of the most surprising and pleasant BB purchases recently. I purchased 2 30ml tubes for 7000 Won so I got 60ml at a really cheap price. I don't think this is the full-size but 30ml is pretty much the regular size of foundations here so it will last me quite a while (and I have the 2nd tube to use afterwards).
This lightly scented rather thick cream offers a perfect color match for me due to the pale lightly gray pinkish color. The coverage it offers is medium so my skin looks rather perfect when I apply this.
It comes in a pretty pearly light peach squeeze-tube.
The cream contains Aloe Extract. Since the tubes came unboxed (but sealed) there is no further information available.
This is a really great BB Cream and will be useful for anyone with a very fair skintone like mine.

BB Creams: Quick comparison V

Since my last quick comparison post I accumulated another stash of BB Creams =) I am totally addicted to BB Creams... I think it's the ease of using them and the pretty finish they give.
I was always first drawn towards eyeshadow palettes but nowadays the first thing I like to check out in a brand totally new to me is a BB Cream =X


Anyways, I have accumulated another 8 new BB Creams so it's about time to post short reviews and swatches.


1: Lioele Water Drop BB Lioele Aqua Makeup SPF27 PA++:


I have already reviewed this here.
It's very lightweight and sheer but gives a very moisturized soft feeling to my skin. However even though it's sheer the color is too dark for me.
I got this in the kit for 29000 Won (the kit also included a lipgloss, blusher and 5 sheet masks)
The cream is only lightly scented.
Squeeze-tube contains 50ml

2: Clio Whitening BB Cream SPF17:


I found this on Gmarket by coincidence. It was supposed to come with a free mini lipgloss trio and a powder but the seller (the one listed in my Gmarket sellers list who carries Banila Co) seems o have forgotten my gift =(
The BB Cream has the typical thicker texture and offers sheer-medium coverage. However the color is too dark for me (though it looks light and applies light but oxidises after short time) and the scent of the BB Cream is a bit strong. It's nothing special.
I paid 27000 Won for this 60ml tube

3: Banila Co Let Me Finish Prime BB Cream SPF 27 PA++:


I have reviewed the other Let Me Finish Multiple BB Cream SPF27 PA++ here.
The Prime BB Cream offers a higher sunscreen than the Multiple one but otherwise I honestly can't tell much of a difference away from the color.
The Prime BB Cream has a slightly lighter texture than most other BB Creams and offers sheer-medium coverage. The color match is ok for my skin-tone though it's on the darker side of the spectrum whereas the Multiple BB Cream is quite pale and pink-toned.
The pump-dispenser squeeze tube is a nice and hygienic way of packaging.
I paid 20000 Won for my 35ml tube and received a free Aqua Gloss, some samples and a box of cottons as extras.

4: Rita Rove W So Lightsome BB Cream for all skin types:


I already reviewed this here.
This is a great basic BB Cream with sheer-medium coverage and the typical light grayish pink color and thicker waxy texture that most BB Creams come in.
I can't detect a scent.
This came as free gift with the purchase of 2 W So Lightsome powders. Contains 50ml.

5: Etude House Speedy Total Base SPF35 PA++ 3 in 1:


This is not labeled as a BB Cream but I see it listed on eBay as a BB Cream and the concept of having your makeup base, foundation and sunscreen in 1 product is typical for BB Creams.
The cream comes in a cute pink squeeze-tube and comes in 2 colors. The lighter color of the two is #2 which is unusual. I guess they first only sold it in color #1 and decided to release a lighter-toned one later so it ended up being #2. Anyway, the cream is really pale and doesn't have the typical gray undertone, rather a peachy tone to it.
It blends in nicely with my natural skin color but offers only sheer coverage. The texture is also lighter than the typical BB Cream.
It's a good choice if you have little to cover and prefer a BB Cream without gray tones.
It carries a slightly strong floral perfume.
The tube contains 50ml and costs only 9500 Won.

6: Jadilla J Skinguard BB Plus:


As I noted in one of my earlier Jadilla J posts this was the BB Cream I initially wanted to get instead of the Whitening BB Plus but it looked dark in the pic so I skipped it. Well, curiosity won and I ended up ordering it (it came with a lip tint, mini powder compact and BB Cream deluxe sample tube).


The Skinguard BB Plus comes in an iridescent pale pink tube which looks very cute and princessy.
However, the color is too dark as I had expected. I think this would work very well if you're naturally lightly tan or about a NC25-30 in MAC.
Is lightly scented (a fresh pleasant perfume) and contais 50ml.
I paid 23000 or so for my tube incl. the gifts included.

7: Tony Moly BB Expert Triple Blemish Balm Cream SPF 45 PA+++:


I believe this is the BB Cream with the strongest sunscreen (Missha Perfect Cover is very good, too).
I quite like this BB Cream as it is a good color match and offers medium coverage. It has the typical thick texture and grayish undertones I am used to from most BB Creams.
Tony Moly Expert BB Cream has a light pleasant scent and applies very smoothly.
The tube contains 50ml.
I believe I paid about 15000 Won for my tube.

8: Tony Moly Secret BB Cream Brighter:


This comes in the most adorable box and tube. Very vintage and cute! I really love it!
The cream comes in the colors "Brighter" and "Natural". I decided to go for the lighter version and I am really pleased with it.
This is the perfect choice if you can't pull off the gray tones in most pale BB Creams. The Secret BB Cream sports a more peachy color but manages not to look orange on me but really brightens up my complexion.
It offers only sheer coverage despite its thick texture but with a tiny bit of foundation, concealer and powder the result is perfect.
Carries a light scent and makes my skin feel super soft.
This is quite cheap at about 9800 Won for 50ml.

You can probably expect a Quick Comparison VI soon hehe. I have the Skin79 Dream Girl BB Cream and couple of others coming in the mail =D

BB Creams: Quick comparison IV

You can read the other comparisons here:
BB Creams: Quick Comparison III
BB Creams: Quick Comparison II
BB Creams: Quick Comparison


I have gotten another 5 BB Creams since my last post couple of weeks ago so here I am presenting you swatches and reviews (but will link you to other posts I already reviewed some BB creams in).


1: Oriks Oriental Herb BB Cream
:


I already reviewed this here.
Very pale sheer BB Cream but oxidizes a bit after short time. Has a pleasant light herbal smell and feels smooth and lightweight upon application.
50ml, came as part of a kit which cost me 39800 Won for 5 items.
Comes in a standard squeeze-tube.

2: Mamonde Natural Cover Lotion:


I already reviewed this here.
It's not called BB Cream but it's a 4-in-1 according to the box and contains SC Glucan, Ivy Extracts, Marshmallow Extracts and Fleur Hydra Complex. Also the texture/color is typical for BB Creams.
Has a floral scent and comes in a light pink-toned color (I purchased color 01, there is also a darker 02 available).
Offers sheer-medium coverage.
50ml (in simple squeeze-tube) cost me 16000 Won (about US$15)

3: VOV Castledew Whitening BB Repair Balm SPF15:


This is a pretty good BB Cream with light-medium coverage. Comes in 2 colors of which I chose the lighter one #01. Has a very pleasant fragrance, fruity and floral at the same time. The tube, color and consistency of the BB Cream reminds me very much of its sister brand Jadilla J Whitening BB Cream which is just a tad darker in color #01.
This gives me very smooth skin and lasts very well.
The BB Cream is rather thick and has a very light waxy feel I personally like in this formula.
Contains (among other ingreds) Jojoba Oil, Grape Seed Oil, Chamomile Extract and Arbutin.
50ml (in squeeze-tube) cost me 11200 Won (about US$10). The cream came with a free full-sized 100ml tube of Frigga Hand Cream and a pack of VOV Good-Bye Eye Pender cotton pads (those are really awesome!). This makes the BB Cream a really good deal.


4: VOV Anti Trouble Blemish Balm SPF17:


I only added this to show you the swatch of it as it's too dark for me (It looks fine on the pic but my hand is about 2 shades darker than my face). This has a herbal scent and a smooth texture.
I didn't actually purchase this, I got 4 full-sized 50ml tubes in color #23 as gifts.
Comes in a basic medicinal-looking squeeze tube

5: Jadilla J The Original BB SPF30 PA++:


I haven't seen the full-size of this on Gmarket. I received a deluxe GWP size as part of a gift-set.
The Original BB has a quite strong herbal scent but I really like it. The texture is typical for BB Creams, a thicker cream with sheer-medium coverage. The color works very well with my natural skin-tone and my skin feels super soft and smooth.

All in all another bunch that contains some pretty nice BB Creams.
And you can be sure you'll find a Quick Comparison V soon =) Addictions, addictions!

BB Creams: Quick comparison III

I compared a total of 17 BB Creams so far, and today I am presenting you 5 more reviews. I actually have reviewed 4 of them already but I personally think it's helpful to see their swatches side by side. I won't go into details as I thoroughly reviewed them already and I will provide you with the links to my reviews.


Read more here:
BB Creams: Quick Comparison (7 different BB Creams)
BB Creams: Quick Comparison II (10 different BB Creams)


1: Cathy Cat Colorist It BB Cream Season 2 SPF10:


I have already reviewed this here.
It's a thick balmy cream with sheer-medium coverage which makes my skin feel super smooth but it's more suitable for colder months due to the thick texture.
70ml

2: Cosline Total Sun Base 3 in 1 SPF36 PA++:


I have already reviewed this here.
This is super sheer and has a weird light peachy color. Has good sun protection so it's a decent sun cream but doesn't perform like a real BB Cream.
70g

3: Skin79 Lovely Girl BB Cream:


This is brand new and I haven't reviewed this yet. I got this together with a BB Pact from Skin79 for around US$13 or so so it was very cheap for me. It comes in a cute light pink squeeze tube with silver butterflies and hearts printed on.
The box says that this products is soothing redness, irritated skin and provides even coverage.
It contains Mulberry and Marigold extract. It's supposed to control oil through their porosity powder and naturally covers blemishes while providing your skin with moisture through added Chlorella extract and Herb Complex.
This BB Cream is formulated for younger girls but hey, even at age 27 I love cute packaging =P
The cream has a light pleasant scent, fresh and slightly fruity. It's a rather thick cream with little bit of a waxy feeling. However the coverage isn't bad (about sheer-medium) and the color match is very good for me.
The squeeze tube has the annoying habit to ooze a bit so the cap gets messy quickly if you don't wipe it after every use.
All in all this is a good basic BB Cream for starters and young girls.
50g

4: Jadilla J Whitening BB Plus SPF30 PA++:


I already reviewed this here.
This is the darkest BB Cream in today's lot of 5 BB Creams but the color match is fine and the coverage is good (about medium). Comes in 2 colors of which I chose #1.
50ml

5: Lotree SPF21 BB Primer Tinted Control Base:


I have already reviewed this here.
Lightweight BB Cream with sheer-medium coverage and quite pale color.
Deluxe sample size 16ml

I want to add that none of my BB Creams lasts more than 5 hours (now in the still somewhat hot and sweaty summer weather) unless I set them with a bit of powder or twin/triple cake powder. Then they last pretty much all day long. I think now that the weather starts to turn cool and will stay cold for the next half year it might be not necessary to set the BB Cream.
My face makeup routine currently consists of makeup base, BB Cream, concealer, powder (or triple cake etc.) blush and highlighter and I am very happy with the results.

BB Creams: Quick comparison II

I already did a post on 7 BB creams and here is my 2nd part presenting you another 10 mini reviews and swatches.


If you're new to BB Creams please click on the link above where I explain what are the benefits and purposes of BB Creams.


1: Etude BB Bright Cream:


Comes in a cute pink squeeze tube with black pump dispenser. Has a light herbal scent and contains 60ml. I honestly can't say much about how this performs as it's downright too dark for me so I haven't really worn this. Medium thick cream feels smooth upon application. Offers sheer-medium coverage.
Not sure about retail, probably somewhere around 10000-15000 Won

2: Dodo Club BB Cream:


This is a 4-in-1 product:
-Essential Cream
-Sun Care
-Makeup Base
-Foundation
Oddly I don't see a sunscreen level listed at all. This looks quite pale at first but oxidizes to a dark orange pink which is not very flattering on me.
Can't say more about how this performs as obviously I didn't wear it really.
This was quite cheap from sasa.com (I think around US$12 for 60ml). Dodo Club is a brand I will skip from now on. I tried several items and all were crap.
Thick creamy texture with a slightly sticky feeling and a bit hard to blend.
Has a light fragrance and comes in a simple (and ugly) squeeze-tube.

3: Skin79 Derma RX Beblesh Balm SPF15:


Contains Co-Enzyme Q10 (against free radicals), Arbutin (whitening) and SPF15. The box says it's antimicrobial so it's good to use on acne and irritated skin.
I didn't really test-drive this as again it's too dark for me. Smells slightly medicinal and is probably a good choice for women with a slightly tanner skin-tone.
Contains 43.5g and retails for 35000 Won (it runs usually much cheaper on ebay, skin79's website and Gmarket). I got mine as a part of a set of 3 products for 22000 Won for all 3.
Comes in a simple squeeze-tube.

4: Skin79 Super+ Beblesh Balm BB Triple Functions SPF25 PA++:


I already reviewed this here and compared it to the golden version.

5: Skin79 Diamond Collection The Prestige Beblesh Balm SPF25 PA++:


I already reviewed this here along with the rest of the Diamond Collection so please click to read more.

6: Skin79 Intense Classic Balm UV SPF20 PA++:


This is a very basic BB cream with a short list of ingredients.
The box claims this is
-UV protecting (SPF20 PA++)
-Calming
-Concealing, creating an even skin tone and texture
-Protects against free radicals and harmful environment
Now this might sound odd but this is my favorite BB Cream from Skin79 and one of my favorites altogether. It's quite thick and offers really good coverage, better than most of the other BB Creams. Furthermore it's one of the palest BB Creams so it's a good color match.
Contains 43.5g and retails for 28000 Won even though it's usually selling for less than half on Gmarket. Mine was a free gift with the purchase of the diamond collection.
Comes in a hygienic simple squeeze-tube and has a pleasant light scent.

7: Lioele Beyond The Solution BB Cream:


While this has a really pleasant light silky texture and blends really well I have come to the conclusion that this is a bit too dark for me. I can wear it but it's not the best color-match and will be unwearable for me in winter when my skin is even paler.
It's a shame as this is an excellent product otherwise.
You can read more about it here.

8: Banila Co Let Me Finish Multiple BB Cream SPF27 PA++:


I was actually quite sure that this would be too dark as the other items I tried (Mineral Pact and the concealer in the lightest color) are way too dark for me. To my surprise the BB Cream is quite light and a very good color match for me. I chose the version with sunscreen which is more expensive but I just prefer to have the sun screen in the BB cream so I can skip 1 step in the morning.
Comes in a pretty squeeze-tube with pump dispenser and has the typical light Banila Co fragrance added. The texture of this is rather lightweight and the coverage is sheer. Overall a pretty good BB Cream.
The tube contains only 35 ml and retails for 25000 Won which is a lot for the small amount.

9: Innisfree Trouble Care BB Cream SPF 27 PA++:


This is one of the cheapest BB Creams (retail price, not what I paid) I have as it retails for only 10000 Won. Furthermore it comes in one of the prettiest tubes with pump dispenser.
Contains Tea Tree Oil, Lily Extract and some other plant stuff so it smells slightly herbal. I had a sample of this and the color match and soft feeling skin convinced me that I needed the full-size.
I read somewhere that this is not recommended for normal-dry but only for combination-oily skin-types. I don't see why as my skin tolerates the cream very well without any problems and feels moisturized all the time when wearing it.
The coverage it offers is sheer-medium.
Contains 35ml but for 10000 Won that's fair.

10: Hanskin Magic BB Cream:


I just reviewed this yesterday so please click here to read.
I want to add that this is the palest BB Cream of the lot and the best color match beside Missha M Perfect Cover in #21.

All in all I have now a wide variety of BB Creams that match my skin-tone and type. Most are on the thicker side and quite emollient and moisturizing.

My top 5 would be:
-Missha M Perfect Cover #21
-Hanskin Magic BB Cream
-Skin79 Intense Classic Balm UV
-Innisfree Trouble Care BB Cream
-Banila Co Let Me Finish BB Cream
(the next 3 would be the golden and pink ones from Skin79 and the Diamond Prestige BB Cream)

I have tried samples of a few more BB Creams. I want to add that BRTC Jasmin Water BB Cream is a very good pale choice, too, and smells lovely due to the Jasmin added.
I also tried Missha M Vita BB Cream but it was too dark.
