Hello everyone! Hope everyone is having a good week ^_^!

reviewing the Skinfood Peach Green Tea BB Cream in #02 Natural beige!
If you guys are
interested definitely keep reading! I have included swatches and how it looks
on mah face as well!
For those who are do not
know my skin type, here’s the low down on it!:

SO CUTE! Looks like a cute bottle of tea! I threw away my box already and lost the picture I took of the packaging T__T
Claims & Description:
Skinfood has a range of “Good Afternoon” BB Creams (each
“flavor” has it’s own set of claims and benefits) and what attracted me to this
particular “flavor was their this statement:
““An oil-controlling and skin-mattifying BB cream
that keeps skin fresh and matte with vitamin-enriched peach extract and
sebum-regulating green tea”
Knowing that my skin is an oil slick, keeping my skin fresh and matte sounded pretty good to me! I love anything with green tea so naturally I gravitated towards this little baby.
Onto my thoughts about their bold claims!
OIL CONTROL/MATTIFYING:
Usually I have to blot around 12 but when I apply this bb cream, I can get away with not blotting until 2 or 3. It wasn’t a miracle worker for me in terms of oil control but its better than other oil controlling products I’ve tried.
FRESH:
Definitely keeps your skin looking fresh and natural!!

Color:
It is available in 2
different shades #1 Light Beige and #2 Natural Beige
Unfortunately it does not have a wide spectrum of color choice but you can always mix it in with a darker foundation or BB cream if you still want those BB benefits!

It’s pretty light but sometimes I can get away with not mixing it in with my Missha perfect cover bb in #27. I am around an NC 30-NC 35 I believe. Most of the time I do mix the two though!
It does oxidize after 20 mins-ish thought but I like to be on the safe side and mix!
Coverage:
It's definitely light-medium (buildable) coverage but I mean it evens out your skin SO WELL! I was totally surprised how well it covered redness and toned down my scars! The picture is what it looks like after 2 layers and spot concealing.
Scent:
It has a slight scent. Doesn’t really smell like green tea or peach. Can’t really explain it but it smells really nice and fresh! The scent wears off within a few minutes anyways so you don’t have to worry about smelling like tea all day.
Finish:
The finish itself is not matte, its more like a semi-dewy, fresh face and very natural looking which I really like!
Lasting Power:
The lasting power is also awesome and I like how it doesn’t begin to break apart throughout the day so thank you skinfood ^^!
PROs:
Moisturizing
Blends easily into the skin
Feels light on the skin
Buildable - evens out skin nicely
CONs:
Only 2 shades available - both shades pretty light
Will have to buy online if not in Asia or have a Skinfood store nearby
I have a video version of the review & demo if you are interested!
Hope you guys enjoyed this review! I have hauls coming up! WOO! Curse you after Holiday sales! SO AMAZING! Hahaha!
