HANSKIN Super Magic BB cream
Posted on: November 25, 2008
Korea BB cream (BB stands for Blemish Balm) is one of the hottest talks of beauty amid women in recent years. The BB cream not only can cover blemish but function as post-laser skin treatment too. The trend burst forth in Asia when BB cream was hot amid Korea celebrities.
I have not tried any until I bought Hanskin Super Magic BB cream mini size 10ml from Boots pharmacy lately, costs me 680 baht. Provided whitening and wrinkle-fighting properties with SPF 30 PA++, I proceed the purchase despite the expensive price tag and no tester to test, of course I did read reviews from various sources that this BB cream suit for pale skin.
The consistency is considered thick yet creamy, but not runny on face. Not fragranced, color looks dark grayish that worried me not a good match of my skin tone at first. Fortunately, it blended easily into my skin like moisturizer, the color matched my fair skin tone by itself, the result was pretty natural like no make up on. Face was moisture, radiant and dewy.
It has sheer coverage to even skin tone but did not cover my skin problem like broken capillaries, freckles, pores effectively even skin is glowing and natural. I quite happy with the dewy look. however, the BB cream has given me darker skin tone ( slightly orangey-grayish ) when the BB cream oxides on me, perhaps due to my skin dullness, that’s why I don’t tend to re-purchase because I don’t know when my face will looks horrible without look at mirror constantly.
I love it is moisturizing for my dry spots, lasting powder was not impressed, might need powder to control excess shine, if you have oily skin, I afraid it’ll imparts the excess oily look. I was wondering if all brands of BB cream has the same result.

Satisfied. Unlikely to buy again.

Hi araya,
Thank you for dropping by.
I always use cleansing oil to remove the BB cream because I didn’t want to risk any dirt residue.
By the way, I’m new to BB cream too, welcome to exchange opinion if you have found a good one. Ü

Hi Lane,
Thanks for dropping by.
This BB cream indeed very heavy, I didn’t use this BB cream daily and for enough long time, yet I used this in dry season, so it didn’t cause breakout on me.
Without the ingredient list (wrote in Korean that I can’t read), it’s difficult to understand why. From my experience, a creamy consistency normally created by either mineral oil or natural oil, sometimes synthesis one. (“v)

Hello karmen,
Literally the Control (sebum) BB cream is suitable for oily skin, that is hard for me to tell what extactly was going wrong without knowing details. Firstly, you need to examine your skin type, skin care routine and even weather because dehydrated/dry skin tends to be venurable. I suggest you adjust your skin care with this to see anything improve or wait for another season to try again, if thing does not improve after few trials, then accept the fact this BB cream is not for you.

Hello Fendy,
I afraid you may need to survey each of them online (there were plenty review of them online) because I didn’t try many to tell. In my experience with some BB creams, I think this Hanskin Super Magic and Palgantong are both suitable for dry skin. I had tried Skin79 Absolute Total (pump bottle) once and it was also very moisturizing and felt fairly comfortable for dry skin. You may also try to add on moisturizer/face oil underneath for intense moisture in case you found your BB crean drying. (“v)

Hi Jane,
I’m an Asian with light skin tone, you can see my photo from my profile. (“v) I’m not sure if you ever experience the oxidization, it’s like the foundation/BB cream shade looks perfect for your skin tone when applied but the foundation/BB cream turns a shade darker on skin after wearing it for certain of time. The oxidization normally associated with the foundation/BB cream formulation, skin sebum or skin dullness that the colorants of foundation are oxidized by sunlight and oxygen. Anyway, I’ve no exact answer to why Hanskin Super Magic BB cream oxidized on me. (“v)
