Today, the review will be on my current bb cream. The holika holika petite jelly aqua bb cream. Actually it is an old product and has been in the market for few years but I would like to give it a try since i've ever tried their finish bcream or something and it was really good.
The bottle design is pretty because it is made of glass and has a jelly shape. Unfortunately the lid is made of tin with built in spatula which feels a little bit cheap.
The spatula can't reach the bottom end of the bottle so you need to dig it with small spoon or fingers.
scent is flowery and smells nice to me. But for some people, they might find this scent too strong
The consistency is indeed jelly like. It's not creamy nor oily like most of the bb cream. It's very bouncy and doesn't drip.
Once you spread it on your face, you'll feel instant cold like cold water being spread on your face. I guess its the effect of mint water.
It dries up pretty fast, so you need to make sure that you blend it well before it sets. It glides on my face smoothly and i love it very much. Once it settled, you can press your face with your palm and feel its so cold.
The coverage is light to medium and leaves semi matte finish. It still leaves a bit glow, but not an oily glow, more like a shine deep from your own skin and it looks very natural.
The lasting hour is 5 - 6 hours. One thing that you need to be careful that it clings on your skin. So, make sure you cleanse your face well otherwise it will clog your pores.
One thing that lack from this product is the design. It is made from thick jelly shaped glass and you know what will happen if you accidently drop it! It will break. I know it can make the product looks more beautiful but still i anxious about dropping it. (you know morning time when everything is hustle bustle and you need to get ready as quick as possible).
But overall, i'll give this bb cream 4 points for the formula and the performance. It only lacks in the design and the semi matte finish since i opt for a dewy finisb but actually it's not even a minor since the problem is i didn't expect it to be matte. He he
I recommend this for people who has oily skin, or to those who want matte finish bb cream and feels sick of oily bb cream.he he. And for those who are searching an everyday bb cream, this is worth to try.
Below i included some of the picture, thank you for reading my blog and see you in my next post.
