Skinfood Apple Vinegar Fresh Foam

130 mL, 6700 won

Rating: 4.5/5.0

A clear water jelly foam with honey, very strong apple smell, one can almost eat it!
It delivers a lot of water to your skin, making it look radiant.


Foams up pretty well, suitable for all skin types, even people with oily skin is suitable! Since it contains vinegar, it does a very good job cleansing my skin, afterwards my face just smelled like apple, there are no vinegar (sour) smell at all~


The price is so good in Korea! only 6700 won, that's like ~$6.2 CAD and ~$6 USD. If you buy it in Hong Kong or Taiwan.... it's like 2-3x more expensive....

I will for sure buy it again if I go to Korea =)

35 mL, 25000 won

This is the 2nd generation for "Let Me Finish Multiple BB Cream." They've added a whitening function, concealer effect is high, a little pinkish, suitable for light tone skin~

This BB cream comes with SPF or no SPF. Oil control again disappointed me... gold packaging, very elegant... the price is also elegant!! kinda expensive... but it's small and easy to carry out~


B. Lioele Beyond the Solution BB Cream

50mL,

It feels like silk!! Contains lots of water, very easy to spread out, suitable for combination to oily skin. The color is beige, suitable for Asians with a bit darker skin, perfect for me! It gives me a medium coverage and sticks nicely to my face, but it doesn't make me look too bright and radiant.

Concealer effect is ok, oil control is.... normal, smells refreshing. I feel very hydrated after applying this onto my face and it also prevents you from breaking out.

50g, 9900 won, 620 NT, $195 HKD

Skinfood's Aloe BB Cream contains aloe vera extracts, smells so much like aloe! Aloe can moisturize, recover your skin~ It feels like being recovered after a day of sunshine... 4 in 1 BB cream acts as a sun block with SPF 20, concealer, helps to hydrate and calms down your skin.


There are 2 colors, #1 and #2. #1 is radiant, more suitable for whiter skin, #2 is natural, more suitable for darker skin. I use #2 and it fits pretty nicely, I have darker skin. The color overall is pinkish~

Of the 4 I am comparing now, I like this one the most!

D. Skinfood Gingko BB Cream

Gingko BB cream contains Gingko leaves, green tea extracts, lecithin and Vitamin B. It helps to firm up and protects sensitive skin. It also contains Jojoba Oil which moisturizes your skin naturally -- Jojoba oil's structure is close to human face oil so it helps to balance out oil secretion, will not evaporate, feels moisturized throughout the day.

There are 2 colors, #1 and #2. #1 is radiant, more suitable for whiter skin, #2 is natural, more suitable for darker skin. 

Comparing this item with the Skinfood Aloe Sunscreen BB Cream, I feel the Gingko BB Cream is a bit dry for me... texture is quite creamy and thick...
