The face cream to end all face creams!

After searching my whole life, I have finally found the very best face cream on the planet!

It's not La Mer, it doesn't have gold flecks in it and it doesn't cost a lot.  I know that sounds too good to be true but be prepared to be dazzled.

If you are in Australia, you might have seen them advertising the new Garnier BB Cream.  Not that anyone knows what a BB cream is but a little research revealed something amazing.

BB stands for "blemish balm".  It is a cream given to people who have had laser or similar treatment on their faces to simultaneously cover blemishes (or healing scars), protect from the sun and promote healing.

Some Korean actresses got hold of this stuff and it took off like a shot in Korea.  Other countries have been slow to start but it is now making its way around the world as the next hot thing since YSL Touche Eclat!

Rather than buy the various incarnations available on the internet, I went to the source: the original.  It is made by a Korean company called Missha.  They have a store in the Queen Victoria Building in Sydney or you can pick it up online at various sites.  They stock a few different types but I went for the Signature Real Complete BB Cream as I have combination skin.

It was only $36.90 and it is truly amazing!

Missha Signature Real Complete BB Cream

It does the following:

1.  Covers my pimples

2.  Covers the dark circles under my eyes

3.  Evens skin tone

4.  Reduces redness

5.  Protects from the sun (SPF 25)

6.  Smooths fine lines (although I don't admit to having many yet

7.  Provides a beautiful base for make up

8.  Doesn't feel heavy (more like a sunscreen weight that foundation weight)

9.  Matches your skin tone without fiddling with numerous colours (comes in either yellow based or pink  based)

10. Stays on all day (and all night if you are naughty).

Using this you no longer need a moisturiser, sunscreen, foundation, concealer or primer.

Plus you can wash it off in the shower with a good cleanser.

I cannot recommend highly enough that you go out and try this product!

Before and after using Missha M Perfect Cover BB Cream (Lipglossiping)

My morning routine has shrunk to cleansing, putting on the BB cream, mascara, blush and lipstick.  On the weekends I usually only do the first two!
