Korea’s Top BB Cream

by Betchay on March 12, 2010


When it comes to Korean cosmetic, I get asked most about the best BB cream. I’m not an expert on BB creams. I’m not an expert at all when it comes to make-up, as I’m not really “kikay”. If I could get away without putting on make-up at all, I’d do that. However, I have a family and a husband to take care of. In this society, appearance counts big time!

Anyway, what is the top BB cream in Korea? According to CMN (and TNS Media), it is Missha’s Perfect Cover with a market share of 10.8%. It overtook Hanskin, which was the top brand last year.

Top BB Creams in Korea:
1. Missha
2. Hanskin
3. Skin79
4. The Face Shop
5. Mamonde

This year, Missha launched their new BB cream product: Signature Real Complete BB Cream with SPF 25. It retails for 23,300 won and is available in 21 and 23. Hmm, my BB cream is almost gone. I might just get this next week ;)

in my case, i use enprani all that BB cream for all skin types.medyo mahal nga lang.for skin lotion, i use soryeonhan with ginseng extract, i also use their twincake and lipstick,while i use isa knox eyeshadow(from lg cosmetics except for enprani), i dont like using cosmetics with strong scent because i have allergy.

i’d like to try other brands too but the problem is they are soooo expensive and if they don’t suit me, it’s like money down the drain…

for makeup, i still use an american brand because of the color variety…

hi!i’ve been wanting to try out missha bb cream since i learned about it in the net but cant find it here n qatar. I tried ordering via e bay but they require credit card and i dont have one since my husband and I are too scared of the word CREDIT.hehehe.Anyways,do you guys know anyone here in Qatar and would be too nice to sell me Missha BB cream #21?Well,no one can blame for trying.Girl got to do what a girl got to do when it comes to beauty.
And one more thing what do you guys suggest is the best shade for me . I am a fair skinned filipino female.

Can I use BB creams? I’m 15 years old. Is it safe for my age? Is it hypo-allergenic? Doesn’t clog pores? What kind of BB cream suits me best? My face is combination skin. (the oily part is on T-zone only)

Hi Annya! Payong ate, you’re just 15 and the best beauty product for you to use is sunscreen. Yan ata pinagsisihan ko na hindi ako nag-start ng maaga.

hello there^^..
just wanna share..i’ve tried different kinds of BB cream: missha,skinfood,hera,etude,tonymoly..and many other brands. I like etude’s BB cream the most coz of the color..I have no problems with other brand’s BB cream, it’s just that i haven’t found a color that suits my skin. I’m tan and most of the bb creams i’ve tried are lighter than my skin. Luckily i found one in ETUDE house (BB magic cream Spf30)..and i so love it. I also have etude’s Precious Mineral BB cream but again, i dont like the color..Ang hirap if tan ang skin..hehe..I believe most SM stores have etude house..Here in cebu, there’s one..so i can buy it easily.It’s a bit expensive though, compared to the price in korea. I’m so into it really..I can’t go out of the house without BB cream on.
Other korean shops like Faceshop and skinfood also have BB cream..and Maybelline also has now. But i recommend BB cream that is made in korea. My friends and i really like it. Give it a try!^^

I saw BB cream for men at the mall, its THE FACE SHOP. dun lang nyo yan ma bibili. Try nyo sa ayala at sm malls. meron yan dun.

Have tried it after few weeks, parang bumata at kuminis yung skin ng face ko..

I recommend 100%, effective with no side effects.

this is suitable for all skin types and its mild scented.

IT will cost you around 890-990 plus in Php.

hi ms. bechay, i’m a guy and i just wanted to have clear face texture like koreans without having ghost face like color. i just wanted know if you could recommend a good bb cream but not that expensive since guys have much darker skin shade than girls. I have lighter skin than moreno’s but i’m not that fair. I would appreciated your reply. Thanks!

Hello,

I recently just got a peel, and the next day I wore BB cream from misha for the first time. I don’t know if its the BB cream that I have an allergy reaction to or the peel, but my face is filled with rash it itches really bad. I really can’t indicate which product made me have that reaction. Perhaps anyone had the same effect with the bb cream?
