Review: Sooper Beaute Tinte BB Cream Velvety Finish in Medium

Hey Loves!

Welcome back to my blog!







So today will be about my review about the Sooper Beaute Tinte BB cream in the shade Medium. I actually bought this on sale last month in their SM Manila store during their 70% off sale.

I have actually used this already once during the Holidays and I can say that I liked it. :)

Price: Php 75.00 (sale price)/ Php 250.00 (Original Price)

Net Wt. 10grams

Its Claims:
- Velvety Finish
- With watermelon extract
- With SPF 20

Ingredients: (can be found at the back of the packaging)

Deionized Aqua, Dimeticone and PEG-18, Arachudyl Behenate, Laureth-7, Phenyltrimeticone, Tridectyl isononanaete, Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate, Titanium Dioxide, Red Iron Oxide, Yellow Iron Oxide, Black Iron Oxide, Cyclopentasiloxane, Phenoxyethanol, Octyl Methoxycinnamate, Glycerin & Citrullus Lanatus (Watermelon) Fruit Extract, Hydrolyzed Collagen, Arbutin, Hyaluronic Acid




So once you put the product in your hand, this is how it looks like. If you notice, it does have a thick consistency and not watery at all. I also have noticed that there are some tiny beads in it once you put the product on your face. 


Upon application, I learned that using a damp beauty blender sponge is not advisable as it actually cakes on your face once you use that. It is better to use a brush or a dry sponge so that there will be smooth application and you can avoid the caking of the product on your face. I have also noticed that it sets and dries on your face pretty fast so you really have to be fast as well in applying this all over your face.

This is how it looks like when I applied only one layer of the product. I didn't use any primers this time. If you notice it does have medium-full coverage as in one layer of the product only, it was already able to cover the visible veins on my cheeks.





And this is how it looks like once I put the rest of my makeup on and applied a setting powder:



It's actually very lightweight on the skin like you are not wearing any BB Creams or foundation. I then tested its longevity. After a little more than 4 hours of not blotting or retouching, this is how my face looked like:




If you notice, my face already started to oil up and my veins in my cheeks also started to get visible again and as well as my pores on my nose. 


What I like:
- It doesn't contain PropylParaben and MethylParaben
- Good for short errands as its lasting power is about 3-4 hours without any primer.
- Like I said, I already used this before prior to me making this review and Ican say it lasts longer with a mattifying primer.
- Cute Packaging
- Packaging contains the Batch No. and Expiry Date


- Contains organic ingredients
- For an organic makeup product, this is affordable.
- Has medium- heavy coverage for a BB Cream
- Has thick consistency
- Is very lightweight on the skin.

What I don't like:
- Using a damp / wet sponge is not advisable as it will just cake all over your face. Better use a brush or a dry sponge for smooth application.
- Not available in stores nationwide. Only available in their stores in selected malls but available online as well (IG: @sooperbeaute)
- Lasting power is only 3-4 hours without primer and 4-6 hours with primer.
- They only have 2 shades for this product: Medium and Fair

REPURCHASE: YES
Like I said, I like the product since aside from the fact that it is organic, for a BB Cream, it offers heavy-medium coverage at only the first layer of application. Something, you may not expect from a BB Cream. 

They also have other products available which you can check online (IG: @sooperbeaute).

So there you have it. I hope I was able to give you info if you are looking for an organic BB Cream, this will be a good product for you. Note though that we have different skin types, so this may have a different effect and longevity for you compared to my experience.

Review: Essence PureSkin All-in-One BB Cream Formulated For Asian Skin

Hey Loves!




So today will be about one of my favorite drugstore brands which is the Essence PureSkin BB Cream. I got mine in the shade 10-Light. Actually the purchase of this was unplanned since when I went to SM Bicutan a couple of weeks ago, SM had their 3-day sale and this was part of it. I got this because it only cost Php100.00! Also, the available shade they have for this product really fit me well, I mean it was the right shade for me, so of course, without any hesitations, I purchased this one and put this instantly in my shopping basket. Haha!

Price: Php 100.00 (on sale)/ Original Price: Php 319.00



Net Wt. 1.0 FL.oz/ 30mL

Its Claims:
- Has SPF 30 PA +++
- Formulated for Asian Skin
- Flawless Clear Skin
- Intensive moisture
- UVA/ UVB Protection
- Essence All-in-One BB Cream acts as a moisturizer, make-up base or foundation. Its oil-free formulation covers imperfections and provides a flawless clear skin without clogging pores. Contains moisturizing agents to smoothen skin.
- SPF30/PA+++ protection prevents skin darkening.

Ingredients:



Anyway, on with the review. Actually, this is not the first time that I have used this product since I purchased this. If you have been following me on Instagram, I posted a selfie there 3 weeks ago where I used this BB Cream when I had dinner and coffee with friends. Here is a screenshot of my Instagram post:

(Note: Please take note that I just took this screenshot just now as I am writing this post which is in real time that I will be posting this here in my blog. I don't schedule blog posts in advance. I actually write them on the spot and post it immediately afterwards real time.)

Honestly, I prefer using this more compared to my Maybelline ClearSmooth BB Cream. I feel that the longevity of this is better especially when primer is applied prior to application of the product.

Okay, so today, I applied this product for this blog today at exactly 2:22pm MNL time. I was at home all day but was busy with a lot of chores; (took care of my fiance in helping him prepare to go to work, cleaned my room, did my laundry, washed the dishes, helped my Mom to prepare dinner and cleaned the table afterwards) So imagine that though I was just at home, I did perspire and was out and about the whole afternoon and evening. 

The product actually comes in a plastic tube and it has a spout so you can control the amount of product you will be using. 





Once you apply the product at the back of your hand, this is how it looks like:


If you notice, it has quite a thick consistency and has a yellow undertone which I really like. 

This is how it looked when I applied this product this afternoon at 2:22pm MNL time. Note though that I didn't apply any primers but just my Celeteque Facial Moisturizer after washing my face with my Celeteque Exfoliating Facial wash prior to application.

This is how it looked like when I just put one layer of the product:



If you notice, I haven't applied any makeup on yet and observe that it gives a dewy finish though the visible veins on my cheeks are still a little visible. Also, you can notice that I have a pimple beside my brow. It wasn't able to conceal the pimple itself but it was able to at least conceal the redness of it which works for me already.

My habit in applying face products are applying 2 layers of the product to on my face to make sure that I get medium- heavy coverage.

So this is how it then looked like when I applied the 2nd layer of the BB Cream on my face plus I also did my brows, put on my liquid eyeliner at the upper part of my eyes. and some nude lipstick.



If you notice, it does give out a dewy finish, but of course, I prefer a matte finish. So this is how it looked like after I applied blush- I used my LOL Blush Duo and my Nichido Final Powder in So Natural.


So there it is, though it isn't fully matte, I observed that with setting powder, the BB Cream was able to give out a glowing effect on my face.

After applying this, I was out and about with taking care and helping my Fiance get ready for work. I only retouched one time with the Nichido Final Powder after 3 hours which was exactly 5:47pm MNL time since what I do is that I make sure to accompany my Fiance outside the village and subdivision where he rides and commutes going to work.

Afterwards, I was busy with my chores: Fixed my room, I did our laundry, washed dishes, helped my Mom prepare dinner and cleaned the table after dinner. And the whole time I was doing this, I had my makeup on for the sake of this blog post. LOL. No worries though since I enjoyed doing my chores knowing that somehow I was made up. LOL.

I checked back at exactly 8:33pm MNL time and this is now how it looked like:



If you will notice, my face is still not that oily though my T-zone and my cheeks are already a bit shiny, but not to the extent that I already looked haggard after all the chores I did. Also, the veins in my cheeks aren't that visible yet. I only retouched once with my Nichido Final Powder, which was about 3 hours after application. It is actually a personal habit of mine to apply loose powder when going out of the house especially when I accompany my Fiance outside our subdivision or if I just have to go out of our village to buy something since I feel that if I don't have at least any loose powder and a tinted lip balm on, I feel that I look so pale. Note that these 2 photos taken at 8:33pm MNL time are the result after 6 hours from time of application.

What I like:
- It gives medium- heavy coverage depending on how much product you apply.
- It has a yellow undertone to it.
- Longevity is very good even without primer, but I can say that longevity is far better with a mattifying primer on.
- Affordable. Technically, it was really affordable for me when I purchased it since it was on sale and I only got this for only Php100.00 and the shade available that time was the right shade for me. 
- Accessible: Available in all Essence counters in SM Department Stores- beauty section, Watsons and in other malls and department stores where there is an Essence Cosmetics Counter.
- It has SPF 30+++ which I think is very good for a BB Cream since some BB Creams contains lower SPF.
- Gives light- medium coverage which works well for me.
- There is no sticky feeling on the face.
- Very lightweight, feels like you don't have any BB cream/ foundation on.
- Though it wasn't able to fully conceal my pimple, it was able to conceal the redness which personally works for me. 
- It gives a glowing effect on the skin which makes your face look healthier.
- True to its claims, it does moisturize the skin not making it look dry and cakey even after you set it with a final powder.

What I don't like:
- Since this was only on sale when I purchased this, they only have limited shades available and during that time that I purchased this, they only 2 shades available: this one which was the lightest shade they have and the darkest shade which is a shade for morena skin as per the saleslady. 


Overall, I like this BB Cream a lot! Like I mentioned earlier, I prefer using this more than my Maybelline ClearSmooth BB Cream and recently, I have been using this a lot more than my all time favorite Shawill BB Cream. Haha!

REPURCHASE: YES!!
Like I said, I got it on sale firsthand, and at the same time, I have been loving the results that this BB Cream is giving me whenever I use it. :)

Note though that we have different skin types, I have given my review on this product based on my personal experience and how it worked for me and there is of course the possibility that this may not work on others as well as it worked for me or this may even work better on others than it worked for me. It all depends of course on our skin types.

Anyway, I hope you found this useful. Just to let you all know, what I also like about Essence Cosmetics is that aside from the fact that their products are great, they are always on sale. So imagine having to buy this drugstore product on its original price, they have a great selection of products and they are also always have products on sale. :)

If you have used this already, feel free to comment down below your own experience and if there are other BB Creams and foundation or any makeup products which are drugstore that you may want me to review or that you can recommend since I am always on the hunt for affordable but with very good quality. :) Also feel free to follow me here in BlogSpot, and in BlogLovin.com to be updated with my future posts. :) You can also follow me in Instagram: @Yhang_Chua since I also always keep my IG account updated with my new blog posts. :)

Review: Maybelline ClearSmooth All In One BB Cream in 01 Fresh

Hey Loves!


First of all, I would like to apologize for not being able to blog as much as I am supposed to. I've been busy with a lot of stuff for the past few days that when I get home I am just so dead tired to be able to blog. However, I promise to be able to catch up on my blog posts on the upcoming days as I have a list of product reviews just waiting to be posted. :)

Anyway, for today, it will be about the Maybelline ClearSmooth All In One BB Cream. For now, this is basically one of my most favorite BB Creams. I've had this for more than a month now and this is actually included in my October 2015: MakeUp and Skin Care Favorites that you can read here.

Anyway, on with the review. I actually purchased this in the SM Department Store- Beauty Section. 




Price: I was able to purchase this for only Php 209.00 because they had a Php 50.00 markdown but I just wasn't sure though if it's also part of their permanent markdown on their products. Original Price is Php 259.00

Net Wt. 18mL

Its Claims:
- With SPF 21 PA++
- All Day Shine-free. UV Protection. Brightens. Conceals. Refines. Smoothes. Evens. Hydrates.
- Our new lightweight and oil-absorbing gel cream formula delivers 8 healthy-looking skin benefits:
  *Visible all day shine-free skin.
  *Protects against skin darkening UV-rays.
  *Visibly brighter and radiant skin.
  *Conceals imperfections.
  *Visibly minimizes pores.
  *Smoother looking skin texture.
  *Even-looking skin tone.
  *All-day hydration.
- Dermatologist tested
- Allergy Tested
- Non comodogenic
- Suitable for sensitive skin.

Okay, so on with the review. Once I applied a generous amount of the product at the back of my hand before application, this is how it looks like:


If you notice, the consistency is actually not that thick, maybe because as per its claims, this is water-based but not to liquid-y too (if there's such a term). 

Okay, so I applied this product on my face at exactly 07:23pm MNL time and this is how it looks like. Please note though that I only applied 1 layer of this product on my clean face. I didn't use any primers prior to application. I only applied my Celeteque Facial Moisturizer which is my trusty facial moisturizer which I apply after washing and toning my face especially before I apply makeup.





If you notice, it does give a glowy look on the face and what really impresed me is that for only 1 layer of the product, it was able to cover the most visible veins in my cheeks. However, it really wasn't able to fully conceal the pimple that I have right under my nose but was able to conceal its redness which works for me. 

And then this is how it looks like after I set it with a setting/ translucent powder. I used my Nichido Final Powder in So Natural.


I also applied by blush here and I used by Allue Blush Duo in Peach Pie and also my lipstick which is my pink Aido lipstick in the Shade Q, and also my Nichido Liquid Eyeliner in the color Black. If you notice, with the setting powder, it was able to give out a matte finish but what I was impressed is that though the setting powder was able to give out a matte finish, my skin still has that glowing effect and didn't look dull and dry.

So of course, I wanted to see the longevity of this product. I was at home the whole evening when I did this but I was busy doing a lot of stuff by then but didn't perspire that much. Personally, I don't perspire that easily but since I have combination skin: wherein I have normal to oily skin. My T-zone tends to oil up easily.

After more than 3 hours, I already checked how this product is. Please note that this photos I will be showing you was taken at exactly 10:55pm MNL of the same evening. I also didn't blot or retouch with powder this whole time as I wanted to show you guys the longevity of this product.




So after more than 3 hours, the product is still there but you can notice that the veins on my cheeks are already starting to get visible as well as the redness of my pimple and my nose already started to oil up. However, what I still liked is though my face started to oil up, it didn't look messy on my face just like I just stepped out from the outdoor sun. It still has that glowing effect on my skin without making me look like a hot mess.

What I like:
- Very affordable: Php 209.00 (sale price)/ Php 259.00 (original price)
- Accessible: available in all Maybelline counters in malls nationwide
- It comes in a squeeze tube so you can control the product that will be coming out of the tube.


- The packaging is light and small so it can easily fit in your makeup kit. 
- Has SPF 21 PA ++
- Though it wasn't able to fully conceal my pimple, I like the fact that for only one layer of the product, it was already able to conceal the visible veins on my cheeks and the redness of my pimple.
- True to its claims, it does give a glowing effect on the face without looking so oily.
- Very lightweight on the face, like you don't have any BB Cream on.
- Very easy to blend on the face.
- Though it claims that it gives out All Day Shine Free result, I am impressed that my T-Zone which is the part of my face that gets oily easily didn't oil up that much than usual.
- The product didn't cake up on my face especially when my T-Zone started to oil up.

What I don't like:
- Though it claims that this gives All Day Shine Free result, my T-Zone already started to oil up after more than 3 hours but wasn't that oily than it usually is.


REPURCHASE: YES. 
I have always liked Maybelline products and though this wasn't able to hold true to its claims of all day shine free face, it didn't cake up on my face and is very lightweight. 

Please note though that we all have different skin types so this product may have different results for us. 

Anyway, I hoped you like this product review. I have a list of product reviews waiting to be posted and I am also excited to be posting about my November 2015 favorites so watch out for that as well. :)

Feel free to comment down below your own experience with this product or if you have any makeup products you would also like me to review. :) Also feel free to follow me in BlogLovin.com and also in Instagram: @Yhang_Chua since I also keep my IG account updated with my latest posts. :)

First Impression Review: SanSan BB Cream in Natural

Hey Loves!


Today I will be posting another first impression review on the San San BB Cream in Natural. Honestly, I've had this for quite awhile now but never got to use it yet until now since I have other BB Creams and liquid foundations that I have been using. I apologize though if I don't have the box of this anymore as the day that I bought this BB Cream, I immediately threw away the box and kept this straight in my makeup drawer and haven't used it until now.

I actually bought this in their HBC branch beside Alabang South Station for only Php180. I wanted to have a variety of BB Creams and liquid foundations in my collection and I have learned from our Pinay YouTubers and bloggers as well that San San is one affordable HBC product that has good quality. There isn't any HBC branches near the place where I lived so when I was in Alabang and saw that there is an HBC branch available there i immediately entered their store to get my hands on some San San products and this is one of them.

Anyway, on with the review. This BB Cream is in a plastic tube packaging with a pump and a cover at its end which I really liked. At least you will be able to control the product that you will be using since the pump works well. I also like the fact that the pump has a cover on it so at least, it will keep the pump clean and avoid any product from spilling if you're gonna put this in your bag especially when you're travelling.




Its Claims:
It has Squalene, Hyaluronic Acid, Vitamins A, C and E, has SPF 43
Lightens dark spots, nourishes skin, protects Skin from sun damage, with antioxidant

Ingredients:
Squalene, Titanium Dioxide, Euphorbia cerifera (Candelilla Wax), Methylsilsesquioxane, Boron Nitrade, Beeswax, Hyaluronic Acid, Benzophenone-3, Phenoxyethanol, Ubiquinone (Coenzyme Q10), Arbutin, Tocopheryl Acetate (Vitamin E), Retinyl Palmitate (Vitamin A), Ascorbyl Palmitate (Vitamin C), CI 77492, CI 77891, CI 77491, CI 77499

Caution:
Avoid too much sun exposure even while using a product with sunscreen. For external use only.

Price: Php 180.00

Net Wt. 1.01 fl.oz/ 30mL


Okay, so on with the product itself. Once I put a considerable amount in the back of my hand, you will notice that it really does have thick consistency. Also, it shows that though this is in the shade natural, which is their second to the lightest shade, it looks like it's a little bit darker than my skin tone.


I am a bit fair skinned that's why whenever I buy a face product, I either get the lightest or the second to the lightest shade. Anyway, with this, I was worried at first as this may actually appear darker on me, but when I've finally applied it to my face, it was just right for the skin tone. What I also noticed is it also gives medium- heavy coverage. In the photos below, you will see that it does have medium coverage and I only applied one coat of the product on my face, it was already able to coverage the visible veins on my cheeks. I also noticed that it dries really fast so if you will be applying this on your face you really have to do it fast as it dries easily on the face making it hard for you to blend. On the other hand, it really feels lightweight on the skin like you're not wearing and BB cream or foundation on your face.





And this is how it looks like with setting powder. Though this BB Cream, unlike other BB Creams has a more semi- matte finish, I still decided to use a setting powder. I used my Nichido Final Powder in So Natural right after I applied my blush which is the Creamy Cinnamon from Sassy Colors and my Aido lipstick in the shade Letter Q.


Note: Please be informed that I applied this BB Cream without any primer. Just my Celeteque Facial Moisturizer, then my brow pencil for my brows, blush, lipstick and my Nichido Final Powder in So Natural as my setting powder. 

Also note that I applied this product on my face at exactly 6:47pm MNL time. I was at home all day but was busy the whole evening with chores and in fixing my room. I don't easily perspire but still, since I have combination skin, my T-zone tends to be oily after a few hours.

Okay, so at exactly 09:08 pm MNL time- almost 3hours from time of application, this is how it my face looks like:



It does show that my face is a tiny bit shiny already but when I touch my T-zone especially my nose area, it is not that oily than it usually is so I was really surprised about it, in a good way of course. :)


What I like:
-Very affordable: only Php 180.00
-Packaging is good: it already has a pump at the bottom with a cap/cover to it and it's not the bulky so putting it in your makeup kit won't be a hassle.
- Available nationwide in all HBC Branches.
- They have variety of shades that will suite your skin tone especially the saleslady in the HBC branch told me that the shades they have are especially designed for Filipina women.
- Has SPF 43
- Product is lightweight on the face.
- Has medium to heavy coverage- it was able to give me medium coverage after just one coat/ product application and was already able to cover my visible veins.
- Product has thick consistency.
- It's currently 10:42pm MNL- almost 4hours from time of application as I am typing this now and until now my face- especially my T-zone area is still not that oily that I still don't see the need to blot or even to retouch with powder.


What I don't like:
- Product dries so fast on your skin that you really need to be fast as well in applying it to get a smooth and even coverage.
- If you will be picking the right shade. Like the photo I posted above, the shade may actually appear darker once you put the product at the back of your hand to check if that's the right shade for you. Better make sure you swatch and blend it properly to get the right shade suitable for your skin tone.
- There aren't any HBC branches near within our area. So basically, if I want to repurchase this or to buy any other San San products, I have to either go to Alabang or to Ayala MRT station, which is actually quite far from where I live.


REPURCHASE: YES
I like the consistency of the product and the coverage it was able to give me and how it was able to keep my face matte for longer than I expected. For its price of Php 180.00, this product is totally worth it.

I hope I was able to give you the enough information especially if you're thinking about purchasing this product. Please know though that we all have different skin types. Anyway, feel free to comment down below your experience about this product if you have any or if you have any questions. :) You can also follow me in BlogLovin.com and in Instagram: @Yhang_Chua since I also keep my IG account updated with my future posts. :)

Thanks for reading! :)

First Impression Review: Shawill Photosensitive Nourish Foundation in 04- Vogue Noble Line

Hey Loves!



So today, I will be blogging about my first impression review about this Shawill Foundation in 04 from their Vogue Noble Line. If you have read one of my previous posts, I reviewed their orange blush in 04 also from their Vogue Noble Line. This time, I will be doing a first impression review about their foundation. 

I have had this foundation for about 2 weeks now but never actually opened it yet since I purchased it since I have been focusing on blushes on my previous posts. As promised, I will be doing a face product this time. :)

So anyway, as the photo posted above this is how the packaging looks like. It is actually made of plastic and its just a simple white one with the brand and name of what type of product it is and the cap/ cover is just a black one. 

Here is what it looks like with its box packaging:



The box is actually like the box of their blushes which I have reviewed before and you can check it out here

Its Claims:
Contain several vitamins and vegetal extract as well as unique shining particle, the product can moisturize skin and make skin firm and shining. Fine powder, perfectly conceal pores and fade uneven tone, keep the makeup natural and thin.

MakeUp Results: Colour lasts for up to 8 hours. Suitable for sensitive skin. Fragrance free and won't clog pores. Looks natural



Ingredients:

Talc, Mica, Magnisium, Stearate, Fragrance, SiO, Kaolin, Dimethicone, Methyldibromo Glutaronitrile, Phenoxyethanol, Iron Oxide Black, Iron Oxide Red, Iron Oxide Brown, Iron Oxide Yellow, Titanium Dioxide

Actually, I am surprised that it doesn't contain MethylParaben and PropylParaben

Price: Php 138.00


Net Wt. 35mL

So on with its consistency:

Once you put a general amount of the product, it does not have thick consistency and is actually a bit liquid-y (if there's such a term).



Actually when I bought this product, the saleslady told me that this is only available in one shade which is the one in Number 04.

On with the application. With my clean face, I didn't apply any primer but just my trusty Celeteque Facial Moisturizer.


If you can notice, it is actually a bit lighter on my face because of the lighting but when in looking in the mirror, it actually looks fine. Idk why my camera is doing this to my face. LOL.

Anyway, I am not sure if you can notice on the photo above, it has a bit dewy and liquid-y finish just like a BB Cream finish. It does feel lightweight though but when I touch my face, it feels like its so moist like I just finished washing my face with water. What I like about it though is that with only one layer of this foundation, it was able to give medium coverage and was able to cover the visible veins in my face.


And this is the finish after I set it with a setting powder. I used my Nichido Setting Powder in the shade True Natural. Because of the setting powder, it was finally able to give my the matte finish I want.




Note: I applied this on my face at 4:45pm to test the longevity of this product. Note that the only makeup I applied on my face aside from my facial moisturizer are my eyebrow pencil, my Nichido blush in the shade Tomato and my Aido lipstick in the shade letter Q.

So I also tested the longevity of this product. I didn't go anywhere today so basically I tested the longevity of this product without any sunlight since I applied this already in the late afternoon. I didn't do much the whole time I had this foundation on so I didn't perspire or anything. 

However, after almost 2 hours- Exact time is 6:20pm, I already checked how this foundation was doing on my face.



I didn't retouch with any powder nor did I blot on this. If you can notice, my T-zone already started to oil up and the veins in my cheeks already started to get visible again. Also, when I put my palms on my face, there is already that sticky feeling. Good thing though is that the blush is still on my cheeks.

What I like:
- Very affordable: Php 138.00 for 35mL of the product.
- Available in SM Department Stores- Beauty Department, Watsons, Landmark and other department stores- beauty department where there are Shawill counters nationwide.
- It does have medium coverage on the first coat of the foundation I put on my face and was able to cover the visible veins on my cheeks.
- Packaging is small so it can easily fit in your makeup kit.
- It feels very lightweight on the skin like you aren't wearing any foundation.
- According to the ingredients in the packaging, it doesn't contain PropylParaben and MethylParaben.
- It also states in the packaging the expiry date of this product.


What I don't like:
- I don't like the packaging, looks like deodorant at first glance.
- It doesn't stand true on its claims that this will last on your face for 8 hours since my skin started to oil up and the veins already started showing on my cheeks. 
- Feels sticky on the face after 2-3hours from application.

REPURCHASE: NO
Honestly, this didn't reach my expectations. I do have a few Shawill products in my collection and I can honestly say that I have liked them all especially their BB Cream which I have done a review on and have been one of my all time favorite BB Creams which you can also read here
Honestly, I am a bit disappointed with this product. 

Note though that we all have different skin types and that this didn't work for me but may work for others.

So there you have it, I hope this blog post has been informative and may help you if you are also on the hunt for affordable, local and drugstore foundations and face product.

Feel free to comment down below if you have any questions or if you have any products you would like me to review. You can also follow me in BlogLovin.com or in Instagram: @Yhang_Chua since I also keep my IG account updated with my latest blog posts and reviews.
