Review : EnCara BB Cream + A Giveaway!
DISCLAIMER :
Picture Heavy & Word Heavy Post
 |
| EnCara BB Creams! |
If you've been following me for a time, you'll remember that I posted about receiving my very own EnCara BB Cream that was made popular by some beauty bloggers. I've been so excited to share my review of this product with you guys so let's get started...
 |
| Setting powder - freebies for my orders. <3 |
 |
| Official EnCara BB Cream pamphlet. |
 |
| Sleek packaging. |
 |
| Matte body, satin-like finish twist cap. |
I have been using this product for over two weeks and I think I can finally give my two cents about it.
Shipping / Shop Packaging : ★★★★☆
I purchased my EnCara BB cream online and received it two days after she shipped it. It was wrapped in a thick layer of bubble wrap but I didn't particularly like the paper tape that was used to wrap it. I found it a bit messy. But that's a very minor thing that doesn't necessarily ruin the product itself. A official pamphlet for the EnCara BB cream was included and also included a couple of freebies.
Pricing : ★★★★★
The EnCara BB cream is usually sold at P999 but I got it at P499 pesos. And that's a FULL SIZED tube... Compared to other BB creams, the price is GREAT! I mean, where can you find a legitimately nice BB cream for only P499? It's definitely more pocket friendly in my opinion.
Design / Product Packaging : ★★★★★
The product comes in a sleek semi-matte finish tube container that's housed in a silver paper-cardboard type packaging with details printed. The tube itself one of those squeeze tube type containers that don't really make a mess unless you squeeze too hard. I like the fact that the opening is at the bottom of the tube so that, by law of gravity, all the product flows down. You see, there's less wastage of product with packaging like this. I also like that it comes with a screw top cover instead of a flip top one. That way there are lesser chances of "accidents".
Scent / Color / Coverage / Etc... : ★★★☆☆
In the two weeks that I have used EnCara BB Cream here are some little details that I have to say. Taking into consideration its scent, I'd say that this product has a very faint scent that I can compare to some sort of floral scent. It's not nauseating in any sense and for someone like me that's very sensitive to scents, it is quite tolerable. The downside is that I'm very acidic to begin with and over a period of time people who come in close contact with my face tell me that it gives of a mix a floral scent with a hint of mild plastic. *eeep!*
As for the color of this BB cream, I'd say this is geared towards people like me that have a yellow undertone. I fall under the NC35-40 category, in other brands I'm a medium beige, true beige, oriental and nude beige. I'd have to say that compared to other BB creams that I've tried in the past, this one has to be the one that comes the closest to matching my skin tone. I have yet to completely play around with it and get my technique on applying it to a perfection but this has by far the best over all look on my face in terms of BB cream. Most BB creams leave me with a ghastly gray-white cast and I look horrible in photos but EnCara is a different story. It looks better in photos than my other BB creams. I can't say that it won't end up looking a bit white, because in some photos that have extremely bright flash and lighting, there is a soft hint of that white cast on my face BUT it's still a whole lot better than other BB creams that leave me looking like death's bride. I also find it working a whole lot better as concealer (gives a highlight effect on the under eye area) , and mixed in with a tiny bit of my regular foundation. It also works great as a thin layer of makeup base before you apply your regular foundation on top of a dried layer of EnCara BB cream. It seems to have kept my oilies at bay!
The coverage of this BB cream is medium to full (depending on how many layers you've applied). It is very buildable and since it blends so well, you really won't have to exert much effort in buffing it into your skin. It has a great consistency, not too runny nor too thick. It's just right for those who like applying face products with their hands. It also works great when used with a stippling brush, flat top brush and even a paddle shaped foundation brush. I have also tried using "beauty blenders" (read : beauty sponges etc) and it does tend to "suck" up much more product than I'd like to so I wouldn't really recommend that.
Overall : ★★★★☆
Overall I'd like to keep using this product. Play around with a lot more and try to get my technique in applying it down to a T. I like it a lot because of its yellow undertone, its consistency, its non irritating smell, its coverage and of course its affordability. Plus I haven't broken out of this particular BB cream. I'd recommend it to those who don't like to wear full coverage foundations on a daily basis, and to those BB cream fans that are looking for more affordable BB cream. EnCara is proving to be a very nice product and its popularity is steadily gaining top place in the hearts of a lot of other beauty bloggers and makeup enthusiasts. I see a bright future for this BB cream. Definitely worth 4/5 stars. Would have given it a perfect score if it weren't for the "cast" trouble I still slightly experience.
Now onto more photos plus a surprise for all of you at the end...

Thank You, MicMic's Corner!
A couple of days ago, I joined MicMic's Corner's 1st Blog Anniversary Giveaway and she finally announced the winner. Guess what? I nabbed the consolation prize. Me! Me of all people! I'm pretty unlucky with giveaways and barely ever win any so I was ecstatic to learn that I won here giveaway's consolation prize.
My prize came in the mail today and they're all awesome. I received 25 pieces of sample packs. These sample packs are of different Korean beauty & skin care products. Most of the stuff I've already heard of like ones from Skin Food, Liole, Tony Moly, Etude House & Skin79.
I'm really excited about these samples. I'm a huge fan of samples since it saves you the heartbreak (and empty wallet) if ever the product doesn't work well for you. *LOL* I probably won't keep all of these especially the ones that come in doubles... Some will go to my sister for sure! The rest? Hmmmm. How about including them in my next giveaway?
For now, I'll leave you guys with a photo of my cute prizes. :)

My New Sunnies, Finally!
There are some things I rarely do. One is buy sunnies (sunglasses) and the other is actually joining giveaways. I'm not the luckiest person in the world but when Ate Kai of KaiGrafia hosted a giveaway by Firmoo where you had the chance to win a pair of sunnies/glasses of your choice, I was sold! I've been meaning to get a new pair of sunnies since it's summer and if I want to protect my eyes from the Singapore heat (upcoming vacation), I really needed a pair. So I joined and prayed to God I won a slot (20 people could win!).
And guess what? For the first time, in a long time, I actually won a slot! When I read the blog post announcing the winner, I had to read it twice just to make sure my name was actually on the list. After the initial shock died down, I messaged Ate Kai with the needed details and waited for my sunnies to arrive.
Finally it did! Yesterday my grandmother received my package at her workplace and she called me up to inform me about it. I was excited and decided to drop by the office to pick it up. I even took photos. Sorry if they sort of are low quality. I didn't bring my camera so I had to settle for my iPhone's camera which sucks at times.
Of all of Firmoo's sunnies, I settled for the one that really caught my eye. The "OTO2543" fall under the women's full frame wrap-around sunglasses category and believe me, it was love at first sight! I loved the large angular shape of the sunnies plus the lovely silver detailing on the arms. They're clean cut and really lightweight. I'll definitely be doing a more in depth review of these babies soon.
How about you guys? Have you tried Firmoo's sunnies yet? :)
