Silkygirl BB Cream

Apologies for not having updated in so long. I have been pretty busy with my assignments in school thus I haven't had the time to update. My Finance Module is really taking a toll on me. Anyhow, here's a new BB cream review. Apparently, the BB Cream craze has not died of yet- drug store brands are even coming up with their very own formula. I hereby present to you, the Silkygirl BB Cream endorsed by local Mediacorp artist Felicia Chin.

Silkygirl Magic BB Cream in Shade (02) Radiant



The Description


Swatch of the BB Cream






The Aftermath

Price: $15.90 (25ml tube) - There's a $2 discount at the moment so, I actually purchased it at $13.90


Available at: Guardian Pharmacies & Watson Stores


Coverage: Average but Buildable


Oil Control: If you've tried the Skinfood Aloe BB Cream, I would say that this BB Cream has better oil control over the related. It could be due to its texture but I must say that I did not even need to blot my skin.


Shade: Alike foundation. The Natural Shade (01) is a tinge bit darker that the Radiant (02) one. As I was confused with both the shades (Thinking along the Skinfood/Missha BB Cream Shade outline, I actually purchased the Radiant, which by the way was too light for my skin. :/ )


Texture: An easy to blend watery texture, however it dries up pretty quickly.


Finish: You get a matte powdery finish. (This could be the reason for the good oil control) There wouldn't be an slight dewy effect. Do note that application of 2 or more layers would make one look slightly caked up


Remarks: Thus far, I haven't had any breakouts from this product and I must say that I might re-purchase again IF the natural shade fits my skintone and if I have the cash to spill. If you have good skin and wouldn't need much of coverage, this BB Cream would be good for you. Oh yes, and this Magic BB Cream is actually manufactured in Thailand.
