MISSHA is coming to town!




To the MISSHA BB Cream lovers, I will be receiving MISSHA BB Creams and BB Boomer very very soon!

At the moment, we will be offering only two shades :
1) Natural Beige - No.23
2) Light Beige - No.21

The reasons are I imported direct from Korea and they don't sell No.27 and No.31 in Korea. Those are manufactured specifically for the US customers. No worries, I am searching for high and low for the suppliers from US. So, behold!

To those who have heard of BB Cream but not really sure what it is, here's an excerpt from Wikipedia on this magical thing!

"BB cream, also known as Blemish Balm, Blemish Base or Beblesh Balm, is a cosmetic item sold mainly in East and Southeast Asia.[1]
Originally formulated in Germany by Dr. med. Christine Schrammek,[citation needed] it was initially used by dermatologists to help laser surgery patients protect, soothe and refine highly sensitive skin while providing light coverage for post-laser scars, acne and other blemishes.[citation needed]
BB creams come in a variety of different formulations and qualities. Some are said to have skin whitening or brightening properties. Others are anti-acne, some are anti-wrinkle, some are intended to even out skin tone, and yet others to lighten blemish scars. BB creams are sometimes used like a primer under foundation, and if tinted may even replace foundation and some newer ones will have functions of primer, foundation, moisturizer, sun block, pore minimization and skin refining together which can save time and money in make-up.[citation needed]
Brands on the market aside others include BRTC - Bio Remedies Therapeutic Cosmetic, Dr. Jart, Lioele, Skin Food,Etude, The Face Shop, Missha and SKIN79.[citation needed]
In recent years BB cream has gained a huge following for its skin-regenerating functions and is now also widely used in Asia to provide natural-looking skin coverage. It has been named "the secret of Korean actresses",[2] which gained it large exposure in Asian markets."

Basically, it is something like a foundation but better! Most BB Cream sold offers only one shades of color. However MISSHA understands that human have different skin color and they had introduced 4 shades of BB Cream.

It was one of the hottest BB Cream sold in Korea and so I found just recently (how embarrassing) in Malaysia! So, come & grab one!
