Skinfood Aloe BB cream + Look

The much requested SkinFood Aloe BB Cream review


The SkinFood Aloe BB cream comes in two shades, this one is #1 the lighter of the two. You can purchase this on sasa.com or yesstyle.com Size: 50g
SPF20

Its a light weight BB cream that goes on very smooth and is easy to apply/spread. This is better than the Mushbroom version as it doesn't oxidize as fast. The Aloe BB cream is for oily or combo skin. You'll see from the picture above that the coverage is just average, you can still see some discoloration. The bb cream has a light scent that I find pleasant.

I dabbed on some concealer under the eye and finished off with the P&J Compact #04 in Mauve


Isn't it pretty? I actually really like this compact, I got the mauve one since its suppose to rid sallowness/redness. It finishes off clear and isn't cakey at all


The finished look, I tried the Laura Mercier shimmer bloc and Paul & Joe pigment

What's on my face
- MUFE HD Primer in Mauve
- Skinfood Aloe BB cream
- Dior Sculpt Concealer
- MAC Lip hydrate
- Laura Mercier Gilded Garden Shimmer Bloc
- MAC Lip erase ( to dim my pigmented lips)
- Paul & Joe eye pearl powder #03
- Paul & Joe lipstick #26
- Corner falsies




The eye pearl powder/pigment is really nice, and I love the lipstick!


its such a pretty pink and actually pigmented for a P&J lipstick. I used MAC lip erase to neutralize my lips before using the lipstick

XOXO, M

    Love the corner lashes too. They look very natural :D

    ReplyDelete
  19. you look really pretty here(:
    & yes! you are correct on the aloe bb cream it's more for oily/combo skin! they had a whole interview thing in the korean news & since aloe is very healing it's good for ance scars also. i'm such a skin food fanatic:T
    oh! &
    you should try their oatmeal face! i have a lot of acne scars & etc it's really nice on the skin.

    p.s. your eyes are beautiful! love them!

  32. i use skin food aloe #2, but it didnt suit me that well, i'm very yellow undertone and when i put on the skinfood aloe, it shows up pink, i dab on msf, looking ok...but yours with P&J Compact #04 in Mauve looking so flawless...maybe i should use that, too, since skinfood made me pinky color

    ReplyDelete
  33. I love your look, so damn pretty!

  35. Mona you look beautiful hun! Those corner falsies are so delicate and just lovely on you! I still just want to pick you up and hug you! ;)

    ReplyDelete
  36. The light green hair band is so cute!

    ReplyDelete
  37. i like how the P&J lippy doesn't show up super bright pink, i would have avoided any lipcolors that are that bright. is that lippy from the new color line up?
    you look so fresh with the bb cream, i don't think i do a very good job of blending mine
    the crown ear rings remind me of something, but i can't quite put my finger on it...i think it had something to do with candy. you're so talented miss mona =D

    ReplyDelete
  38. Did the PJ compact #4 really got rid of your redness?
