Initial Review: Lioele Beyond the Solution BB Cream + LOTD: Purple

i got this bb cream because of xxpinkx's Valentine look and her New York trip blog post. She raved about it and her skin does looked amazing on them pics. i ordered it from ebay seller legendeaux from Korea. i got it in 12 days. Not bad for international shipping. So here's my mini review of the product...
Lioele Beyond the Solution BB Cream 50g $16 + $3.50 shipping ^ Comes in a tube but has a pump dispenser ^ Comes out dark from the tube but blends to your skin ^ It matches my skintone more than the L'egere Multi bb cream ^ After i set it with Smashbox Halo
PROS:
  • decent coverage
  • matches my skintone more
  • great oil-control
  • cute packaging
  • has a light 'night cream-ish' scent - i likey
CONS
  • no spf
VERDICT: If i was to rate all of the 3 bb creams I've tried, this has to be my top 1...mainly because of it's oil control properties then the color match. I just hope this doesnt break me out. That's the reason why I temporarily stopped using L'egere Multi bb cream and switched back to tinted moisturizer. I'm not sure if L'egere is the culprit or me being super stressed out. I'm still keeping it just in case. Nevertheless, I'm stil in search for the perfect bb cream. I just ordered another brand and will do a review when i get it.
