BRTC Whitening & Repairing BB Cream

Review of my second BRTC product - enjoy! :)


Product description: Multi-benefit cover cream with whitening and wrinkle prevention functions cover naturally and evenly. SPF37 PA++.

The full size product is a 35g tube, I purchased three sample sachets. For easier application I decanted it into small jar:



This BB Cream is pretty similar to the Jasmine Water one. It's has creamy, thick consistency, that applies smoothly to skin. It offers medium coverage and is easy to build up if you need more coverage. However it can be a little bit heavy, so if you have combination or oily skin you have to be careful with amount used. This BB is very efficient - three samples lasted for three weeks of every day use.
Similarly like Jasmine Water, it's is quite shiny and using some mattifying powder was necessary for me. It's also not very good with enlarged pores - it doesn't cover them, actually I think it make them more visible.




The colour is pretty similar to other BRTC BB Creams.

As for it's whitening properties - it looks bright on skin, but it's a make up effect - for the three weeks of use it didn't make my skin tone brighter, but to be perfectly honest I didn't expect it to do so - at the end of the day it's a make up product, not whitening skin care cream.

I can't find the whole list of ingredients, however I can see it contains Titanium dioxide and Zinc Oxide, that are SPF filters that whiten up skin. It also contains arbutin that may help improve skin tone. For it's anti-ageing properties it contains hydrolized collagen and adenosine.

Price: the full size products costs from £10 on e-Bay, I payed £3 for set of three sample sachets.

Pros:
+ a little goes a long way
+ nice bright colour
+ high SPF filter
+ good coverage

Cons:
- very shiny
- makes pores more visible
- may be a little bit heavy

In general it's not a bad BB Cream, however I am not tempted to go for full size version. I would prefer something lighter and less shiny. But if you don't have problem with enlarged pores and excess sebum you may like it!
