First Impression Review for iWhite BB.Holic Everyday BB Cream

Happy Valentine's Day girlies. As usual, I apologize for being missing in action because I am into the corporate world again. But as promised, I won't be giving up beauty blogging.

 Today I will be giving my honest review for iWhite's latest product, the BB.Holic Everyday BB Cream. I saw  this product in the group, The Make Up Revolution PH in Facebook (if you haven't join the group yet, please check it out because the latest beauty news are there) . Knowing iWhite, it was known for products that are very much affordable. I have tried their nose pack in which I was not satisfied (will be posting my updated review soon ). But though I was not satisfied with their nose pack, I still wanted to try this BB Cream because it is so affordable. So let's get it on.

CHARACTERISTICS:

The claims:

For those who are new in the Make-up World, BB Cream is a blemish balm or beauty balm, It is like a foundation but gives lesser coverage and has skin-care properties. It is lighter than foundation. So if you are the type of person who doesn't want wearing liquid foundations but wants a good base, BB Creams may be good for you. To add, bb creams are also known for skin-lightening effects if used religiously. 

As for the scent, it smells good at first but has a crayon-like smell but not that bothering at all, For the consistency, it is very liquidy, just like of a tinted moisturizer.

VARIETY:

BB.Holic comes in two shades, Light and Beige. I got the Light Shade.

I haven't seen a full-pack of this one but I guess since it is for Everyday use, it only comes in sachets. 

INGREDIENTS :

SIZE:

4 ml

PRICE:

P 24.50

PACKAGING:

BB.Holic comes in sachets. The sachet is divided into two. I think it is good for 2 uses. But actually, I was not able to finish 1 sachet.

This is how it looks like after opening and squeezing out the product. This is not good for our kikay kits. 

The design of the packaging is very girly. I like it.

APPLICATION:

I suggest for you to use your hands in applying this one since it's very liquidy. Your brush or your sponge will just absorb the product. In applying, I noticed that it is like a tinted moisturizer with very light coverage. There was no itch or sting felt.

I had the product on the left part, (which is the right side of my face, hehehe). The right part is just a plain me. No anything. Literally, it's a woke-up like this face. Hahaha. Please forgive the dark circles brought to you by mascara and eyeliners from yesterday.

As you can see, the part with the product (left) looks quite light but since I am acidic I know it will oxidize after setting.

After applying BB.HOlic on my whole face. Can you see the difference from the first pic? It evened out my skin tone, redness on my cheeks were gone and some minor blemishes were concealed. It really gives a dewy finish.

 The left part has a setting powder. And the right part doesn't have. You can see the difference of a mattified face and a dewy-looking face. This is at 9:40 AM

PERFORMANCE / LONGEVITY:

At 11:12, I noticed that the right part (the part that doesn't have a setting powder) is really shiny, so I can't help but apply a setting powder on that part also. By the way, I used Essence All About Matt fixing Compact powder to set my face. 

The oil absorbing sheet that I used just for the left side of my face (the right part in the picture)

As you can see, it has a very minimal transfer and there's really an oil build-up because usually, I just oil up like this if I use the sheet for the whole face. 

After 5 hours, this is the oil absorbing sheet. Very oily right? Even if I used a mattifying powder. After blotting, the product is still on my face which is a plus point for me.

Just a note, I have a combination skin lately.

AVAILABILITY:

The product is available in Watsons.

PROS:

-The price. The cheapest BB Cream ever.

- I love that it comes in small packages. Money won't be wasted if the product is not good.

- I love that it evened out my skin tone, it made me look fresh and it did not appear cakey.

- I love that my skin appeared to be healthy looking. No dullness.

-The product is still on my face after blotting because it has a very minimal transfer.

CONS:

- It really gave me extreme oiliness.

- Packaging is good that it is small but it can't be stored in our kikay kits. I hope there are caps like Quick FX and Olay.

FINAL THOUGHTS :

Usually, I test out the longevity of the product for 5 hours only because it is the minimum number of hours oiling up is ok with me. What I mean is, if I didn't oil-up at 5 hours, the product is good enough for me. Meaning, retouching is ok with me, after 5 hours. With this product, I was shiny in less than 5 hours. But, since it made my face appeared looking fresh, I'll just find ways on how not to oil-up that much. I think I'll use a primer for this one so I'll still give this a thumbs up.

Repurchase? Yes. I recommend this to those who are starting in make-up and for those who wants a dewy finish.
