Product description: Complexion Coordinating BB Cream SPF43/PA+++ gives you a clean, even more natural look! No.1 Pure Complexion is a skin brightening white cream that adjusts to a natural tone when applied for clear and glowing skin.
You can have this product in two sizes - 20ml tube or 50ml cylinder container with very interesting applicator. It's sealed from on the top with only a little slot - when you twist the top part small amount of product would be dispensed from the slot. It so cool and must be so comfy to use with foundation brush! Unfortunately I didn't have a chance to use te applicator myself, as I was testing out just the sample sachet.
Product comes in two shades: No. 1 Pure Complexion (white & gold packiging) and No. 2 Flawless Complexion (black & gold packaging). As you can see on pics, I was testing No. 1.
It has high filter: SPF45 PA+++.
This product, althought it only has a "BB Cream" in name, is actually classified as a BB and CC in one. It's one of this products, that change colour during application, like Lioele Dollish Veil Vita BB or Tony Moly Live Aura CC. Even though it's called a "complexion coordinating" it doesn't really magically just change to your skin colour - it contains a colour capsules, that break when you rub it into your skin releasing tint into the cream.
 |
| No. 1 is basically white before application. (No. 2 is beige). |
When all colour capsules are broken and cream is a bright beige with pink undertones.
 |
| On a textured paper a lot of color capsules are breaking at the same time, making it look much darker than it looks on skin. |
Now for the performance. I think this product is much closer to the CC Cream than a BB, to be honest. It gives the skin beautifull glow - my face looked so fresh and dewy after application. However this effect i quite strong and because I live in the country where the matte look is still the desired one and I have a very oily skin which has "shine" of it's own, I had to spoil this glow with mattifying powder. Which is a shame, as that's the biggest advantage of the product. It doesn't really offers much coverage, hardly covers some blackheads. And what's worse - after approx. 4 hours it's almost completly gone. It's like my skin sucked it up or something. There were only traces left around my dry patches (had some acne emergency recently, so my skin is dried out in some places), which wasn't looking good at all.
Price: approx. £8 for 20ml or £15-17 for 50ml.
Pros:
+ gorgeous glow, making skin look fresh
+ really cool applicator in 50ml version
Cons:
- very low coverage (but it may be an advantage for someone)
- after few hours it just dissapears from the face
- makes dry patches more visible, rolls up in wrinkles
Well, I guess that if you don't need much coverage and like quite significant dewy effect, you may give this product a go. But I would recommend to use it with some primer, as it just doesn't last. For me it's a definite no-no, sorry Missha!
