Fairydrops Candy Bar BB Cream Review

I am soooo in love with this Fairydrops BB Cream! Well, I'm a fan of BB creams in general and I rely on them as an everyday product for my face. I first discovered this BB cream from a cousin of mine who recommended this new product that she had bought from The Beauty Bar. With her raving about it so much, I knew I just had to buy it! 

Fairydrops Candy Bar BB cream was apparently produced by a famous Japanese newscaster who wanted a product that made her skin look flawless and camera ready. This BB cream is actually made for perfecting your skin while hiding blemishes and scars. 

For 3 years I've been using many different BB creams and recently settled with Etude Houses' Precious Mineral BB Cream and Super+ BB cream. Though I like both theses BB creams, it just didn't give me the coverage I wanted on my skin. I had to use concealers and sometimes triple layered my BB cream just to get the coverage I wanted. I'm also a fan of matte finish and BB creams have this dewy, oily finish.

Discovering this product is just heaven! It's everything I've ever wanted in a BB cream. It makes my skin look fantastically smooth and healthy. It evens out my skin tone and gives me the coverage I want in its first application. The best thing about this BB cream is that it covers my pimple scars. Of course I have to put another layer for full coverage but it does cover them quite nicely.

Before: Red spots and acne scars on my cheeks :(

After: It's a bit blurry but as you can see, the redness and scars are almost completely done! :)  

Another aspect that I love about this product is it's satin, almost matte finish. I have oily skin especially around my T zone. Fairydrops BB cream gives me this matte lustre without the dewy finish. It has this skin like effect that even with multiple layers it doesn't feel heavy. 

After using this product, I noticed a difference in my skin. I had less breakouts and it did not clog my pores at all! A little goes a long way with this product. The less you use, the better for the skin. Maybe this was why I saw improvements on my skin or it could also be because of its active ingredients that I will further discuss later below. That's just me though. :)

The Fairydrops BB cream comes in 2 colors: Ochre and Light Ochre. Since I have fair skin, I chose to buy Light Ochre. However, BB creams tend to match your skin tone when it warms up on your skin. I really don't think there's much of a difference between the two. In either case, if you have a darker more natural skin tone, purchase Ochre instead. 

As for it's durability, this product stayed on my skin for the whole day which was a full 9 hours! I didn't need to retouch anything at anytime. 

As for it's packaging, it's done quite nicely. It's clean looking with the white plastic, rubbery container and it's pink logo. But since it is white and it is BB cream it can be dirtied easily. 

I've said so many great things about this BB cream but I do hate something about this product and that is its sponge applicator. The first time I tried to apply with it was dreadful! It was hard to squeeze out the product and tends to squirt huge amounts of BB cream. At one point it even squirted BB cream all over my white uniform! Horrible! The sponge itself without the rest of the packaging is quite useful. I suggest removing the sponge applicator and just spread the BB cream with your hands or a brush. You can also use the sponge separately with the BB cream or other products. Just don't use it together!!! 

Overall, this is an AMAZING BB CREAM!!!! For people who want flawless, photogenic and perfect looking skin, this is the BB cream for you! It's both a BB cream and a foundation all in one. It's light on the skin and very easy to use. What more can you ask for? I use this every single day since I've discovered it and it never fails me. It is a bit pricey, costing P1550. For me, the effect it has on skin is worth the money. I absolutely love it! 

Key Points:

• Micro-Gold Pearls to Hide Scars and Freckles
• Diffuses Lights to Hide Wrinkles
• Smooths and Softens Skin
• Waterproof
• Lightweight
• Shine-Free
• Oil-Free
• No SPF

How to Apply:

Take an appropriate amount and apply a small dab to your cheeks, forehead, and chin. With the tips of your fingers spread bb cream evenly throughout your face. To avoid bb cream from caking, let sit for 5 minutes before building bb cream up for more coverage, and before apply any loose powders to set it with.

Overall, I would rate this: ❄❄❄❄❄
