What do you love most about the spring? I’m looking forward to sunny days since that means more flowers, more time to go out, and also more reasons to put on some sunscreen. Our skin is too precious to neglect it even when putting on makeup and looking pretty.
Now that I’m running out of foundation and sunscreen, I was so happy to hear from @heimish_uk so that I could test out their SPF BB creams in exchange for an honest review. Prior to coming up with my honest thoughts, I used the heck out of this BB cream in the course of two to three weeks. The BB creams were basically my second skin during that period so that I can tell you how effective the product is for day-to-day makeup.
What’s the Big Deal with BB Creams?
Heimish’s BB Moringa Ceramide Tinted Moisturizer Makeup and Sunscreen cost $25 USD on their website for 1.05 oz. These BB creams are designed to be the healthy medium between makeup and skincare because you can utilize them for sunscreen, for moisturizer, or as a lightweight makeup foundation. If you go for natural makeup or want makeup that doesn’t clog your pores, I am sure you would like this product.
Each of these BB creams have an SPF 30 PA++ so that you’re protected from harsh UVA and UVB rays for a longer period of time. It is not meant to be a full coverage formula, so if you want a natural, glowy finish that is meant to hide redness and blemishes and support your skin barrier, you can try this one out.
If you want to try this BB cream for yourself, you can purchase this with a 10% discount at Stylevana by using my discount code INF10OHMY at the checkout. You can use this discount code at Stylevana to save 15% off your order if purchasing at least $59 USD worth of product. I do receive a small percentage of commission if you use the code, so go on and have fun stocking up on your Kbeauty essentials!
The BB creams are supposed to enhance your skin’s beauty because it contains show-stopping ingredients such as:
- Moringa Fermented Oil: Moringa is a great anti-aging ingredient because it can reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. This ingredient is antifungal and anti-inflamatory so it is perfect for dealing with redness and constant breakouts while moisturizing the skin.
- Eco-ceramides: Ceramides help promote skin barrier health and moisturize your skin to prevent infection and dry, flaky skin. This is one of the essential ingredients to look out for if you are looking for solutions to dry skin.
Tested for Everything
Lovely Packaging
The packaging is so nice and great for travel! I love the pump nozzle for a hygienic user experience.
Considering the price for this product, you might think that this BB cream is fairly small. However, a little product can go a long way for providing a natural finish that protects your skin. Going on with too much of the BB cream can make your face look like a sweaty girl really quick, so use this on top of your usual SPF if you have other SPF products with you.
Great Shade Range for Kbeauty
There are shades for both warm and cool tones, so there’s something for everyone. In this line, there are 2 shades meant for lighter skin tones with cool undertones. The remaining four shades are neutral undertones and for warm undertones, but they are the darker pigments.
Some people might be iffy about this product for the shade range, but I think it is impressive. I personally don’t think it’s a huge critique considering that Heimish’s customer base is primarily in South Korea, which is where they are founded. They are trying to expand their reach right now (with some of their skincare being readily available now at Walmart stores in the United States). I think eventually they will expand their shade range to cater to their international audience.
Perfect for Hiding Redness and for Natural Looks
I didn’t notice any particular scent when using the BB cream. It comes out as a richly pigmented, lightweight cream that easily covered my redness. A little went a long way for me because 1 pump of the BB cream did just the job of providing coverage without feeling cakey. If you are hoping for a high coverage makeup product that can hide all the pigmentation of pimples and blemishes, this one only slightly lightens them. This formula can also enhance pimple bumps since it is a glowy finish.
The cream is easy to blend into my skin and contour. I actually used the Medium shade for my face and the Deep shade for contouring to test it out, and it made me look like I had a nice, sunkissed tan. The product is very beginner friendly because it doesn’t dry out quickly and is easy to blend the shades out for contouring or bronzing. I’m so excited to use this in the summer.
Sweatproof for Sure
When I tell you I put this BB cream to the test, I meant it! I wore this cream to work out and even tested it underwater, and they definitely stayed in place. The coverage stayed there despite the warm temperatures. The only time the BB cream would go off is when I washed it off with my makeup remover.
Wearing this BB cream was a pleasant surprise during my workouts because it did not turn splotchy from sweating. I usually go hard during my workouts with cardio and weights, and there were no issues. On top of that, my skin did not break out at all! I got compliments on my skin both in and outside of the gym. To know that I can work out with some makeup without it clogging my pores is when you know you have a solid product in your hands.
Would I repurchase?
Hands down yes because I think I have a new makeup essential for my collection. For my first impression of Heimish, I was amazed with their BB cream line. This seems like a great product for the summertime and works for all skin types since it is sensitive skin-friendly and supports a healthy skin barrier for oily and dry skin. A little bit of product gives a decent amount of coverage for pimples, but I would layer more on for blemishes.
Would you try this? So curious to know!
