Hanskin Glossy Magic BB Cream / Hanskin Perfect Super Magic BB Cream

I have received tons of request for reviews of Hanskin BB Creams. I managed to lay my hands on 2 from a sweet angel and here's my review:


Hanskin Glossy Magic Blemish Balm Cream 
Coverage: Sheer to Medium (buildable but too thick a layer will appear a little cakey)
Texture: Pretty liquidifed, very easy to apply. 
Shade: Slightly greyish.
Fragrance: A very slight typical cosmetic scent but its very faint. 
Oil-Control: Surprizingly, its oil control is pretty good.
Dewyness: It gives a very dewy glowly look. I thought my face was oily but it was actually from the pearly glow that the BB cream gave.
Overall comments: This BB Cream reminds me of the Missha Watery BB Cream, except that this is very much lighter in shade. For those who finds that Missha Watery BB is a little dark for you, this will be the perfect BB! Upon application, it leaves a natural luminosity dewy finish that I kept mistaking it for being oily on my skin. Overall, I really like this BB except for its pretty sheer coverage. I probably can mix this with a thicker coverage BB / liquid foundation.

Hanskin Perfect Super Magic Blemish Balm Cream
Coverage: Medium to Full
Texture: Pretty liquidified, easy to apply. 
Shade: Has a slight pink undertone.
Fragrance: None! 
Oil-Control: It has a medium oil control for me. By mid-day, I'll notice a little shine on my t-zone. If you have combi skin, I reckon the oil control to be better for you.
Dewyness: It gives a slight dewy look.
Overall comments: This BB Cream reminds me of the RojuKiss BB except that its texture is so much easier to apply and that its coverage is really good. Oil control isn't the best but its managable. If you wear a oil-controlling base / primer beneath it, you'll be able to control the oil secretion well. It gives a slight dewy look so you do not look overly 'oily' with too dewy a look.

Comparing these 2 BB creams, I like the glossy magic bb cream for its oil control and natural luminosity glow but not its sheer coverage while the Perfect Super Magic coverage is excellent and has an SPF of 30.

I have the trial tube of 10ml so I am unable to sell samples of these 2 BB but, if you're looking to get these BB Creams, you can get it from Gingerdip @ Blogspot or I might start a spree on Hanskin BB creams. Anyone interested?
