Innisfree is one of the hottest brands in Korea! Many Taiwanese, Japanese and Chinese are very familiar with this brand. Innisfree mainly uses natural ingredients. They have a few lines, the most popular ones are Olive, Wine, Lavender, Rosemary, Mint, Camomile, Tea Tree, and other herbs.

The Trouble Care BB Cream SPF 27 PA++ consists of lavender, tea tree, Rosemary and etc... it's meant for acne and oily skin. It feels very mild and won't irritate your skin, gives a medium coverage and a natural look.

Ingredients:

Tea tree - helps with skin problems, balances your skin tone, repairs your skin and lets it rest

American Mint + Lily - relieves skin pressure, has a calming effect

Lavender - relieves pressure

Herb Essence - supplies your skin with water

Vitamin A - protects your skin

SPF27 PA++ can protect your skin again UVA, acts as a make-up base, foundation, concealer, oil control and calms your skin.

The packaging is awesome! Light and easy to carry =) colour of the BB cream is natural, fresh and thin. Smells like herb, but not strong at all, suitable for normal to oily skin~ Only has one color, more pinky, concealing effect is high, but oil control isn't to good. Not sure if it's becoz my face is oily? My forehead is more oily... and if you need to cover blemishes and marks, you gotta put more on the spot. The pump is easy to control, not like thos cheap ones where you push once and it splats everywhere... if you don't wanna use too much, just push the pump gently~~

This BB cream not only is the hottest one in Missha, but is also the hottest BB cream all over the world!! Its functions include: foundation, hydration, whitening, wrinkles, UVA/UVB, pore minimizing and balances your skin tone so that it looks all natural and healthy. With SPF42, you are sure you will be protected against ultraviolet rays and the absorbing of Melanin (makes your face dark).

Ingredients:
Rosemary & Camomile -- calms your skin + anti-oxidant
Ceramide & Hyaluronic Acid -- locks water to your skin
Gatuline RC -- firms your skin + increases elasticity

Out of all the Missha BB cream, this one conceals the BEST!! compared to Missha Gold and Silver BB cream, it's thinner. It gives a medium sheer coverage~ No. 21 is lighter, No. 23 is more natural.

First time I tried this, I used my cousin's No. 23. I had lot of pimple marks at that time and No. 23 (darker) provides a better coverage, perhaps coz the marks themselves are DARK. It looks like as if there aren't ANY marks on my face!! Perfect match!! Later when the marks lighten, I started using No. 21. This BB cream smells good, but oil control is not too good, and it doesn't feel sticky.

It's Skin is a brand started by Korea professional dermatologist since 2006. By now, it became the No. 1 selling product in Japan and Korea. All the ingredients are strictly chosen, so customers can feel safe, no need to worry that the product will harm your skin.

Most popular products: Mangowhite line, BB cream, sheet mask (with natural ingredients), filler ex essence line, 中藥秘珍潤系列 and etc...

This BB cream looks a bit too natural... perhaps becoz I like pinky BB cream~~ suitable for all skin types, best for natural/white color skin tone. Gives me a pretty good transparent effect, however SPF 15 is not enough for me~ I like SPF 20-30 BB cream. The pump sucks... hard to control the amount of BB cream I want.. sometimes it splats everywhere...

Hanskin is the King of BB Cream﹐super popular in Korea and Japan~

Hanskin uses all natural ingredients in their products, it repairs your skin mildly, provides a very smooth texturee~ Use it for awhile and you'll feel that your skin is hydrated, smoother, more radiant and healthy.

Hanskin Super Magic BB Cream is the King of all the BB cream within the bran. It functions as a foundation, repairer and make-up base~ It also contains SPF 30, has wrinkle reduction and whitening effects~ very liquidy and smooth!

The price is a bit high, and the colour isn't too suitable for me as I am a bit dark. It feels a little sticky, but it provides a transparent coverage. The colour is a bit pinky, concealer effect is ok... oil control isn't good, I put it on in the morning, after 7 colors, you can fry an egg on my forehead =P

Suitable for all skin types, more pale skin. Since my skin is a bit dark, the first time I tried this I looked like a ghost~ after ~15 minutes, my skin seems to adjust to the BB cream and makes me look more natural.

Out of the 4 BB cream, my favourite ones are Missha M Perfect Cover & Innisfree Trouble Care! ! !
