BRTC Jasmine Water BB Cream Review

I'm sure everyone is super hyped up about the BB creams in the market. We are flooded everyday with more companies coming out with BB creams, especially from the western companies. Nonetheless, I still like to try out as many as possible and share my favourites with you ladies!!

Today I'll be reviewing the BRTC Jasmine Water BB Cream.

BRTC Jasmine Water BB Cream

I received this product from BRTC along with the Aqua Rush BB Cream. I decided to give this a go since I am able to test the longevity and how the product withstand heat in this hot summer day!

BEFORE

I've actually gotten even more tan from the last time because we went to the beach on Saturday! I applied the product using Sigma F80 Flat Top Brush.

AFTER

The product has a jasmine scent to it but not sickening. It is definitely too light for my skin now, just like the other bb cream. Though I would rather work with a foundation that is lighter than my skin than one that is way too dark.

Close up

This BB cream claims to have 3 main functions other than coverage, which are, skin whitening, wrinkle repair, and  water replenishment for your skin. 

Upon application, I could definitely tell that this product is less nourishing than the Aqua Rush. Which means that this will be more suitable for you girls with combination oily skin!

I went ahead to apply the rest of my makeup. I did not set this BB cream with powder. 

Complete look for the day!

We went out and about, including having a short stroll at Woodbine beach.

After about 5 hours of wear...

after 5 hours

It wasn't very humid today so I didn't have much problem with sweat or oil on the face. The BB cream has definitely worn off slightly but most of it is still on my skin. Redness is now showing through slightly around the nose.

Pros:

• Suitable for combination to oily skin
• Medium coverage
• Light weight

Cons:

• Limited colour selection
• Slightly scented (Personally prefer face product with no scent.)

This is overall a great product and I would recommend it. You can get yours either at BRTC Store or Momomango.

P/s: I've recently been to an interview with Koo Creative and really looking forward to have a chance to work with them. Wish me luckkkkkkkkk!!!

BRTC Aqua Rush Water Drop BB Cream Review

I was contacted by BRTC recently and was lucky enough to try some of their products. Today I want to share my thoughts on the BRTC Aqua Rush Water Drop BB Cream. Keep in mind this is a first impression review, and I will have an update after some substantial use and possibly comparing it with other BB creams that I own. First an foremost, keep in mind that I have normal to dry skin, and results might differ depending on the individual. 

BRTC Aqua Rush Water Drop BB Cream

Back

The Aqua Rush Water Drop BB Cream claims to be for dry and dull skin, creates water drops as is being rubbed (?), and revives the skin to be clear and splendid. It also has SPF 28 PA++ protection.

Swatch

Upon squeezing out from the tube, I realised that it is a rather thick formula, a little bit more than I am used to for a BB cream. However it has a plus side that it doesn't have a grey-ish tint that most BB creams in the market do.

I applied it on to my face using my fingers. It was slightly tough to blend out, similar to Estee Lauder full cover foundation. It could be easier with a brush, I'll have to try it out and get back to you ^.^

BEFORE

Close up of BEFORE

I've became a little bit more tanned recently due to the sun. I haven't been out purposely to make myself tanner, so it is just a gradual change during summer for me. 

AFTER

Close up of AFTER

The coverage is medium in first application, but the colour wasn't right. It was too light for me but this will certainly work perfectly in the winter as it is quite moisturising. The BB cream does not feel sticky at all and it leaves a smooth finish on my face. I noticed that the BB cream started to oxidise to a slightly darker colour after 5 minutes of application but it was still not the right colour for me for now. 

2 hours later

It is EXTREMELY humid today and the BB Cream is still on my skin 2 hours later. Some are definitely gone but still acceptable for this weather.

After 4 hours

BB cream is still on but I could definitely see some red spots close up. I would recommend setting this BB cream with a powder during humid days. I don't see the need to if you are in a temperature regulated environment or cooler/ drier days.

Pros:

• Non grey tint, brightens up the complexion
• Smooth finish
• Not oily
• Medium coverage

Cons:

• Limited colour selection
• Slightly scented

If you are interested, you can head to the BRTC Store and order one for yourself for only $28! BRTC products are also widely available in Asian cosmetic stores.
