Finally got to try out my Hanskin samples from Korea. Have always wanted to try and see how good they actually are and luckily when I bought the traveller's set in Korea, the SA threw in tons of BB cream samples to me. hehe. *happy*.
Now I have 5 opened tubes of BB cream (Dr G Hydra Intensive, Faceshop Quick & Clean, Mamonde Hydration, Mamonde Moisturizing and Legere) lying around, 2 new tubes that I don't dare to open and 1 Hanskin traveller's set. Anybody want samples? Can come and get from me, FOC. Just pass me ur containers.

My comments:
This is one of the most watery textured BB cream that I have tested. Upon application, it feels like water, easy to blend and it looks super duper natural on me. The color was just right for me; not too white, grey and/or orange. It's just nice. According to the product description, it's supposed to treat acne. I have 3 "youth" acne on my temples and chin since 2 days ago and couldn't reduce it somehow. After applying this for the whole of today, it seems to work. My "youth' acne is less swollen and not as painful anymore. Not sure if it's the BB cream effect, so I'll monitor it for a couple more days. One of my fav so far, even more than Mamonde Hydration or
Mamonde Moisturizing BB Cream or Dr G.

My comments:
Strangely, this didn't work well for me. Firstly, it's too creamy and rich. Secondly the shade is too pale for me! I am considered very fair among my friends and this actually made my skin looked ghastly - as if I have a white film over me. I was using this before Hanskin Control BB cream and when i first used it, I only have 1 acne on my chin. After 2 days of using it, all 3 came out. I have very good reasons to believe that this induced it. FAIL!
