Key Ingredients :

Shiso extract - reduces early melanin-making signals even before the hyperpigmentation process and melanin production cycle starts - helping prevent uneven skin tone, brown spots and freckles

Vitamin C - provides anti-oxidant protection helping to reduce the production of melanin
Liquorice - works to limit the effect of melanin synthesis and helps to reduce the variances in skin tone

A good friend of mine, being a fan of TBS was purchasing some products in the store and was given the serum as complimentary samples so I took the chance to ask for a BB cream sample instead. No sample sachets were available so the friendly promoter squeezed some contents from the counter tester into a small round tub for each of us. I was apprehensive on using it initially, but I did see her wiping the opening before squeezing the contents out to us. I am sticky about hygenie for skincare products, especially since its a tester for the public but since she has attempted to clean it before giving it to us, I gave it the benefit of the doubt and have been using it for the past 3 weeks.

The shade of this BB cream fits my skin tone well, the texture is slightly thicker and has a medium coverage that is able to conceal redness and blemishes moderately well. As with all other BB creams, it may emphasize dry patches if the skin is dry.  It has good oil control for my combination skin.

I like the dewy healthy glow that this BB cream imparts to my skin, making my skin look brighter, radiant and more even-toned. It has an added protection of SPF25 and PA+++ but its not enough under our humid weather so please be reminded to layer a sunscreen underneath. I do not have the full ingredient list but I like that it contains Vitamin C, a good antioxidant for everyone. The Japanese Shiso Oil is known to be rich in vitamins, minerals and essential fatty acids while the organic aloe vera helps to moisturise and soothe skin for enhanced luminosity.
