Holika Holika Clearing Petite BB Cream-Review

(Un-blended, you only need a very small amount to cover the whole face.)

(Blended into the skin, it is a bit darker then my own.)

The beauty world is a buzz with reviews of different BB creams! There are a TON of different brands that offer BB creams but I chose Holika Holika which has an adorable witch theme to their packaging. The brand has several different types of petite BB creams but I chose the skin clearing kind. I have oily skin and the cream claims to reduce sebum as well as clear the skin. It has a scent to it that I can only attribute to the Tea tree oil. I didn't like the scent but it didn't stay on the skin once applied.

The cream is a beige color that looked like it'd be to dark for me. Though the first time I blended it into my skin it looked great. It has a light coverage with a matte finish. I have ok skin with occasional break outs and discoloration on my cheeks and chin. I noticed that I didn't need concealer to hide the yellow,red and peach tones that showed through most tinted moisturizers.

If you are looking for a good tinted moisturizer I would recommend this. If you are spotty or have dark spots I would use a concealer with this. I'm sad to say that this product would not work with darker skin. Illamasqua does make a BB cream like foundation called skin base that has a wide range of colors. If you are pale like me and you are looking for a lighter coverage then you'd like this.

Ratings:

Coverage-3/5 (Light coverage but lovely.)

Price-1/5 ( I found it on Amazon for twelve dollars. I wish it was cheaper.)

Availability-1/5 (You will have to search the internet for this unless you live in an Asian country or live near a big city with a Asia Town.)

Do I love it?- YES!

Have you tried any BB creams from different brands?

I've noticed a trend with my make-up as of lately. I've been doing way to many fast looks with my wet n wild palette. So I thought I'd branch out and do a "fast" look with some of my Darling Girl shadows. Sorry my posts have been so far and few between. It's been a busy few weeks. School is starting really soon so I think I'll do a back to school look like everyone else. :)

I'd also like to add that my chi flat iron came in the mail today! YAY STRAIGHT HAIR! My hair is really thick and naturally wavy. This is one of the few irons that can actually straighten/de frizz my hair. I'm so impressed. Should I write review?

What I used:

Wet n Wild concealer stick

Holika Holika Petite BB Cream (Oil reducing kind.)

Wet n Wild blush in Heather Silk (Placed high on the cheek bones.)

The more exciting looks are returning soon! I promise. Tomorrow I think I'm going to do a Klingon look.
