Hiya Darlings~ ~*~*~ I have to admit I haven't been trying out too many BB Creams as of late since I seem to be more interested in CC Creams lol but I did recently try out Missha's Perfect Cover BB Cream and I'll be reviewing that today! ^^ 
Product Information
 Description: This Missha Perfect Cover BB Cream makes your skin tone clean and natural by concealing blemishes with excellent skin coverage. It is a multifunctional BB Cream with the effect of blocking UV rays, whitening & wrinkle care effects that simplify makeup formalities. Its moisturized application with W/S texture makes skin tone sleek while supplying moisture and nutrition at the same time. Direction: After using BB boomer, apply an appropriate amount along the skin texture and finish with powder. Do not need to apply sun cream in addition. Capacity: 50ml   
The packaging and design for this BB was extremely mature, but Missha doesn't cater to a younger audience alone (like Etude House does) so it was a bit expected. Either way, I had high hopes for this BB because I've heard good results for its amazing coverage!
After using this BB for nearly a week, I have to admit I'm not a big fan of it! I bought it mostly for the coverage and the coverage was the most disappointing part. It's not a bad BB cream, but it's all over mediocre. Nothing really wow'd me though nothing really made me hate it either. The coverage was okay. The oil control was okay. Everything was just kind of okay.
I expected something better from a product with a name like "Perfect Cover" and although it gave my face a nice, sleek finish, it hardly hid my under eye circles or the majority of redness from my pimples. It also didn't really fill in my pores around my nose which is quite disappointing considering the Etude House CC Cream (a mere, sheer coverage CC cream!) could do that, but a BB cream with a name like "Perfect Cover" couldn't. Do I have too high of an expectation? >.< Am I just really angry about their name choice? I don't know. Maybe~ lol.
The description also notes that using a BB boomer would heighten the results of this BB cream. I looked it up and a BB boomer is basically a primer made specifically for BB creams to give better texture, longer lasting etc. Frankly, I don't think a BB boomer would have made me like this BB cream that much more so to that, I will pass.
Oil Test:
  Although it does look like the Perfect Cover BB Cream has a lot of oil, it really wasn't the case. Probably the thing I liked the most about this BB was its oil control. My face stayed relatively oil free even after wearing this BB cream for over 5 hours. This BB does have a lightweight feel on my face after application and I like that it feels natural and doesn't weigh my face down and make me feel like I have heavy makeup on.   Likes: Lightweight after application Good oil control Whitening Non-greasy texture High SPF (SPF 42PA+++)Dislikes: Mediocre coverage (doesn't hide dark circles, bright redness from pimples very well) Doesn't completely fill in pores   Whitening: Oil Control: Texture: Overall: Final Verdict: Overall I give this BB Cream 3.5! It's definitely not an exciting item for me; it's just an average BB Cream and personally average isn't enough for me to re-purchase. Since there are lots of people who seemed to have tried this BB and liked it because of it's amazing coverage for acne & acne scars, do feel free to try it out regardless of my review of it here. haha However I would recommend purchasing the smaller size (at 20ml) instead of the 50ml version I have on here (It's also a lot cheaper so you don't have to feel like you're committing to something you might not like). You can purchase 20ml version here & 50ml version here! 
Thanks For Reading!!
Stay Lovely,

Review :: Missha Super Aqua Ultra Waterfull Cream

Hello lovelies~ ~*~*~ Just a quick review today since I just got back from a short trip and I'm super sleepy lol. I'll be reviewing Missha's Super Aqua Ultra Waterfull Cream and it's pretty straight-forward stuff.  So I actually got a sample size of this cream first before I decided to buy the full size which was about $27 at Cosmetic Love. I got the cream sample a little before the beginning of summer when the weather was just changing from pleasant to hot and my skin was getting super dried out from the heat. Normal lotion just wasn't moisturizing enough and argan oil on a daily basis made my oily skin break out so I decided to use the sample which magically healed the flakiness.
Product Information
 Description: Inspired by the moisture preserving ability of desert plants, the Super
Aqua Ultra Waterfull Cream activates the moisture preserving ability to
keep skin hydrated throughout the seasons.
Directions: After Emulsion, get appropriate amount and apply onto face. Pat lightly until fully absorbed. Capacity: 47ml First Thought: Omg! The smell of this is so amazing! Likes: Ok, so the superficial stuff first lol. I find the color and reflective surface of this cream's packaging super cute! I also love love LOVE the fragrance of it. It's just this really invigorating (I think a bit floral) scent. Just opening the lid of this cream is like o-m-g, heavenly smell. After that, I will state the obvious: I actually purchased the full size after trying the sample. The moisturizing effectiveness of this cream does not disappoint! When I flake/dry out, I always apply this cream on (though without the emulsion process) and it soothes and moisturizes my skin back to normal in a few days. The texture is also lightweight so you can use it in the summer and/or daytime. I find that when I use it at night it lessens the redness of fresh or semi-fresh pimples and makes them deflate, and heal faster. I really like that and also the fact that you don't need a lot of this cream to work it all over your face. Dislikes: The small size! I'm actually not sure about this one. I think I may be alone on this, but regardless, I do find the size too small lol. Even though a bit goes a long way, if you use it on a everyday basis, I can guarantee this cream won't last long. (I typically just save it for when my skin is really dry or when I happen to get a spurt of acne) It also doesn't have any addition benefits. It does soothe my acne, but since this isn't one of the product's claims, I can't say that may be the case for everyone. It doesn't stop my cycle of dryness, and I didn't feel like my skin condition got any softer or got more elasticity. It moisturized my skin really well and bought it back to its normal condition and that was about it (which, is absolutely wonderful, but a bit too pricey for that amount and a cream with basically no additional skincare benefits).
Moisturization :
Texture :
Additional Benefits :
Overall :
Final Thought: I do recommend trying this cream if you have super dry skin and don't mind the price. Sure it has its flaws, but that's nothing compared to the feeling of looking at my face and seeing a lot of flakiness after I put BB cream or foundation on. I do really like it and will probably re-purchase unless I can find another cream that has the same level of moisturization that comes along with a couple of bonus benefits along the way.
Thanks so much for reading ^^
Stay Lovely,
