BR: L'egere Aqua & Shiny Pearl BB Powder

Assalamualaikum.

Hello everyone! I hope you're enjoying the long weekend.

I just came back from a cousin's wedding and is still super tired.

I tried to sleep but my eyes weren't working together with my body and mind so I decided to turn on my laptop and update this blog.

This will be another beauty review.

Girls just can't have enough of beauty products, can they?

(^.^)

Other than BB creams and facial masks, I'm also a huge fan of loose powder and powder pacts.

Powder pacts has been my essential beauty item since I was probably 12yo.

I even bought one to school before it got confiscated by the prefects during one of those famous 'spot checks'. I had no idea it was a prohibited item in school.

I mean, come on, I had the oiliest skin which could be used to fry eggs and they made me live without a powder pact at school.

Thank God for the existence of blotting paper.

Anyway, I have used so many different brands of loose powder, mostly drugstore brands like Loreal, Revlon and Silky Girl.

But as I'm a fan of Korean brands at the moment, I'm now using L'egere Aqua & Shiny Pearl BB Powder.

L'egere may not be as famous as other Korean brands such as SkinFood, Etude House and The Face Shop in Malaysia but it's really famous in Taiwan.

It was established in 2003.

Check out their website.

L'egere Aqua & Shiny Pearl BB Powder, 9g

The pros:

Love the compact size, handy to bring along anywhere.

The shimmering effect is just nice, even for use during the day.

Doesn't oxidize, set very quickly.

Brush friendly - I use this with my EcoTools kabuki brush and it doesn't leave my face cakey.

The cons:

No SPF or PA.
Available in only 1 shade, may not be suitable for darker skin tones.

Not widely available in Malaysia.

Contains paraben, thus must be used sparingly.
