[REVIEW] Holika-Holika Aqua Petit BB Cream

hello guys !!!!
it's been a long time since my last post , oh, and happy new year 2014 guysss!!!!
so today, i'm going to review my latest BB cream which is Holika - Holika Aqua Petit BB Cream shade #2
since i run out my previous BB Cream, so i decided to buy a new one!

so, here's how it looks :
tadaaa!
so, i bought it online at @beautyglowing on instagram and it cost Rp. 155.000,- exclude shipping charge ^^
they sell authentic korean make up with low price ! if you guys interest you can check out their instagram , just click here :)

my first impression of this product :

  • i'm a packaging girl, when it comes to find something, what i see first is the packaging and yes this packaging is so cute! it shape like a flower and it's matte-glass and it's Tosca which is one of my favorite color XD
  • it comes out with a sponge, which i will never use because i prefer to use my hand to apply BB Cream to prevent from bacteria that will grow on the sponge
here's the detail of the product :


 it comes with a spatula on it's cap and the texture of this BB Cream are Jelly like!
it's really light when you apply on your skin, and a good coverage too!

swatches on my hand
 okay.. to be honest, i have a lot of acne, scar, and blackhead on my face T.T i'm still struggling to fight these acne problem since grade 7. so, here's a little story about my acne journey. when i was in grade 6 if i'm not mistaken, i have several small pimple on my forehead, well i was still too young and still don't care what happen with my face, so i just use ordinary soap to clean my face. growing older, at the next grade, it getting worst, i have acne ALL OVER MY FACE! and it's not only one or two, but countless! it was really horrible that time. i used drugstore acne product but my face still the same, then i asked my science teacher and she said that it's normal to have acne at my age. then i compared with my friend, most of my friend don't have acne this much, then i decided to go to doctor, and yes.. 1 year later it recovered, but i still have some scars. because i was just 14, and i though that my acne problem are gone, so i stop use the doctor product. but then, 3 months later, i got more acne!! i was shocked and went to the doctor again. until one day, my friend said that keep using doctor product is not good, my skin would be more sensitive and more thin. she suggest me to stop using it. then i stop and struggling with breakout, purging and stuff. i followed this method that i got when i'm looking for how to decrease acne and found that link! it really helps, REALLY. it get way more better. i will post about my acne story on my blog, now back to review! ^^

as i mention before, the texture of this product are jelly like, when you wipe it around your face, it's really light! it's like using a water on my face and it has matte finish so i don't have to use powder anymore ^^ oh, i'm using too much bb cream on this review, because a small dab , probably 2 dab already can cover up your cheek!

positive things from this product :

  • packaging is so cute!
  • it has good coverage, i could cover up most of my acnescars
  • matte finish, no need powder anymore 
  • it's saving because a small dab can cover up much
negative things from this product :
  • the color is too light for my skin! it makes me look so white, thank God i chose shade 2, i almost buy the 1st shade but then i change my mind. fiuh 
overall, i'm satisfied with this product, i really like it and i guess this would be my daily BB Cream ^^

rate 1-10 : 
hmmm.. it's 9! 

repurchased ?
maybe no if i find something better than this ;)

so that's all of my review, it is all based on MY OWN OPINION, hope it helps you guys ^^
