REVIEW: HOLIKA HOLIKA AQUA PETIT JELLY BB CREAM

One of the beauty products that I can't live without is BB Cream. I've started using BB cream since ages ago and tried quite a few from different brands. This BB Cream from Holika Holika is by far, my most favourite amongst all.



WHAT IT IS
A water based BB Cream that makes bouncy skin with a healthy complexion.

SIZE
40ml

SHADES
It comes in two shades, #01 Aqua Beige & #02 Neutral Beige

WHAT IT DOES
"Jelly BB Makes moist and bouncy jelly skin.
Has jelly texture that helps spread evenly and creates fully hydrated and shiny skin. It is also perfect for covering up facial blemishes.
Mint water hydrates facial skin, and marine jelly complex makes soft and bouncy skin."


HOW TO USE
Take an appropriate amount with spatula and evenly spread onto facial skin by patting gently with its puff enclosed inside.

INGREDIENTS LIST



PACKAGING
The BB Cream comes in a flower/jelly shape glass jar with a screw-off polka dot cap. Isn't that cute?!
It also comes with a sponge which I didn't bother to use because of the funny shape of it. (I rather use my beauty blender.)

It's quite heavy than any normal packaging off bb cream since it comes in a glass jar

The manufactured date and the expiry date is stated at the bottom of the jar

REVIEW
I bought it in the shade No.02 Aqua Neutral which matches my skin tone perfectly. But I have to warn you guys that this shade is quite too light unlike some other BB creams from different brands. So if you're using a BB cream in shade 23, then this might be a bit light for you.
As the name suggests, it does have a light jelly texture. There's a spatula attached under the lid which I found really fascinating. And as for the floral scent, I love it! But it disappears quickly upon application so no worries.
This BB Cream is suitable for those with combination to oily skin as it gives a semi-matte finish. The coverage is buildable. It lasts up to 6-8 hours if you set it up with loose powder. Roughly 4 hours without powder.
Another thing that I like about this product is that it doesn't break me out. Yay!

Tip: Make sure to prep your skin before applying this product onto your face because it tends to get cakey and dry when you don't moisturized your face enough.

Look at the spatula attached 😮

Can you see the jelly-like bb cream inside 😍

I put it on my hand. See how bouncy it is? 😉

I love this BB Cream and it has now become one of my HG items. I would definitely repurchase it once I'm done with my current jar.
