Summer is finally arrived and the days are getting hotter! It's finally time to stay outdoors!
I wanna enjoy the open air but I also want to protect my fair face from sun rays and UVA/UVB damages.

The solution to all my “troubles” comes in an orange tube:
a daily moisturizer, a foundation and a sun block, all in one!

The magic product is my new Vital Orange Super Plus BB CREAM from SKIN79!
I'm sure you've probably heard a lot about BB creams in the past few months, but in case you still don't know what these amazing skin creams are and do, here it's a little explanation!
WHAT IS A BB CREAM?
BB creams are a type of tinted skin treatment that became a phenomenon in Korea and quickly spread to Japan, China, South East Asia and has made its way to Europe and the USA! BB creams are similar to a tinted moisturizer but they do a lot more!
Infact they contain high-performance treatments like anti-agers, antioxidants, brighteners and botanical actives combined with high-level sunscreen, coverage, and moisture!!!! Amazing, aren't' they??!!

ARE BB CREAM FOR ME? Korean BB creams generally come in just one or two shade, usually really light shades (about NC20 in MAC makeup terms!). For this reason, I don't recommend BB creams for anyone with medium to dark skin tone, because you will look like a ghost!
For darker skin tones, I recommend trying out American/Western BB creams that usually have a lot more shades but are more similar to tinted moisturizers.
MY OPINION of SKIN 79 BB CREAM
Believe it or not, this product is totally changing my summer!!! I don't need anymore to use daily moisturizer, sunscreen and foundation because this multi-function product itself does everything in just one easy step!
The cream is very moisturizing but lightweight at the same time and soaks almost immediately into the skin; plus, it has SPF 50 that is perfect for my fair skin! The smell is good too, with a citrus scent and the fact that contains vitamin C is another great aspect!
I don't know if you can tell by these photos (in which of course I'm wearing my BB cream!) but since I have start using this amazing product my skin actually looks a lot brighter and clearer than it did before and the light formula allows my skin to breathe more than a normal foundation does!
Since it’s not easy to find a good tinted moisturizer that contains also SPF and actives ingredients I’m really happy I finally discovered this one!!!!
Did you already know BB creams?? Which are your favourite brands? And your best SPF moisturisers? Let me know!!!!! ;)

love, Francesca








very useful post; i am seeing BB creams all the time in cosmetic shops and I am wondering whether to purchase one, because normally i don't use foundation, but in case this is the light version, sounds just perfect, can you advise sth about the price range, how much was yours for example, thanks :)

I got mine from Ebay because it's not easy to find original Korean bb creams in shops! I paid mine about 16$ with free shipping that I think it'a very reasonable price compared to a lot of foundations! hope it is helpful!
Deletei love the packaging! and it seems like a great product.
