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.
Skin79 VIP Gold Collection Super Beblesh Balm
Made in Korea.
Breakdown
Coverage
Medium. It matches the colour of what I would like my face to be. Since my face is slightly darker than my neck, I would like my face to be the same colour as my neck.
Consistency
Thick cream
Smell
There is a fresh smell. Smells kind of like flowers. The smell does not bother me.
SPF
25 SPF
Colour Range
Only seems like one colour on the website
Size and Price
40g. I paid $16.06 on eBay but this varies depending on the seller. The first time I bought it for a different price.
Final Thoughts
This is my absolute favourite BB cream. I have read reviews stating that this is better suited for dry skin types. I gave my friend with a mini sample of the Skin79 family and she didn't like it at all. She said it was too oily. Which is funny because she has dry skin and I have oily skin but I don't find it oily for me. I have to use a small amount so that it matches my neck colour. If I put too much, my face will have a grey cast. This one leaves a dewy look but I tend to use very little of this. The coverage is good in the way that I don't have to use too much, and as mentioned, if I did, my face would have this grey cast. The consistency is thick, so when I spread it over my face, it's more to work with but I use my fingers so it's not too bad. I like the pump, I feel like I have a lot of control of how much comes out of the tube. This is already my second purchase, so this BB cream is really high on my list. I like using this one during the winter season. I have the Hot Pink one too but I haven't given that one much of a chance.

Spread over my arm
I must have spread some more out after I took the original picture. Even the lighting is different here. Anyway, it's after it has oxidized on my arm.
