This past week, I wore a different brand of BB for each day of the week just to compare them to each other. I always had favourites though. I think things like foundation, tinted moisturizer, BB cream, or even cream is very subjective due to difference of skin type and what people prefer in terms of consistency and feel. I have oily skin, and a few acne scars. Personally I like my face products to feel light on my skin. I have big pores, and some redness especially around my nose. Before applying BB cream, I moisturize my face with a moisturizer that has SPF.
After taking these pictures, I realized I have to come up with a prettier or better way of displaying it. Also I never realized how dry my hands looked.
BRTC Gold Caviar
Made in Korea.
Breakdown
Coverage
Medium. It goes on my face slightly darker and then it oxidizes lighter. On the website it states that it is light beige.
Consistency
Medium-thick cream.
Smell
There is a fresh smell. On the website it says light baby powder. It is pretty strong, while walking to the bus stop in the morning, I can smell this on my skin.
SPF
50 SPF
Colour Range
Only seems like one colour on the website
Size and Price
35g. I paid $17.49 on eBay but this varies depending on the seller.
Final Thoughts
This is one of my favourite BB creams. It has a lot of claims, such as anti-aging with rich caviar and vitamin nutrients. While I do not really see a difference, I would hope that these ingredients would be preventative more than restoring for me. I like to use this during winter because it feels like it does moisturize my skin. Since I am in areas where the heat is always on, my skin is dry even if my face is naturally oily to combination skin. It's pretty light in feeling. Also, I have travelled with this before which explains the reason for the words rubbing off.

My tube but I have traveled with this so the words have rubbed off
I've use quite a bit of this so it's harder to squeeze out comparatively since the tube is almost gone.
