Gold Caviar BB Cream (product review)


BRTCstore.com sent me a Gold Caviar BB Cream to test and review and I ended up using it for a full month before finishing the actual review.



The SPF-50 was the best part. I have come across BB Creams with SPF-30 and even SPF-35, but this is the first time that I came across a BB cream with an SPF of 50. BRTC offers a lot more than blemish balm, they also sell eye creams, anti-aging creams and solutions for stretchmarks. I have not tried any of their other products but I like what I tried so far.


Jasmine Water BB Cream Swatch
When it comes to BB creams (or liquid foundation), picking the right color with the correct undertone is just as important as choosing the better brand. At one time Jasmine Water was my favorite BB Cream (BRTC sells Jasmine Water), but I realized that I needed a cream with a yellow undertone. Jasmine Water BB Cream has a pinkish undertone (shown in the picture above).


Encara BB Cream Swatch
Then came my Holy Grail, the Encara BB Cream. Its yellow undertone blended perfectly (as shown in the picture above), and it matched my skin without needing to be mixed with anything else. I can still use the Jasmine Water BB Cream but I need to blend it with a dark face powder to make it work.


Gold Caviar BB Cream Swatch
The Gold Caviar BB Cream has a slight hint of brown but it still looks very ashy on me. I can still use use it, just not by itself. I like blending pinkish BB creams with darker face powders.

This is a great BB Cream, especially if you have a pinkish undertone. SPF is important when you use pealing products like Beauche, if that is you, make sure to wear sunblock with a high SPF. That is the beauty of Gold Caviar, SPF-50 without buying sunblock.
