Dr Jart+ Premium Beauty Balm
This week, I've been testing out Dr Jart+ Premium Beauty Balm SPF40. This 15ml sample tube was included in a UK Glossybox last year. It retails for £24 for 40ml at Boots, and US$39 on Sephora.com in the US. I think Watsons in Singapore also stocks it, but I'm not sure.
The Premium BB Cream is described as "a slightly glossy, low coverage cream which helps fight ageing" that is particularly suitable for those over 30. It contains a Bio-Peptide Complex infused with white gold for anti-aging properties. It is available in only one shade. The list of ingredients is available on Sephora.
The texture is a very light cream that spreads easily on the skin and is easy to blend. The shade looks slightly greyish but when applied, there is no greyish cast.
The glossy sheen is visible when under a bright spot light (pic above), but as you can see in the photo below which was taken by the window, it does not look that dewy in natural daylight.
The Premium BB does a pretty good job of evening out the skin surface without emphasising my pores. The level of coverage is sheer, and it does little to conceal very red blemishes. The slightly dewy finish makes this most suitable for ladies with dry, dull skin. I can skip moisturiser when using this as it is quite hydrating and handles dry patches well, unlike my Addiction Tinted Moisturiser which is more suited to summer.
However, the Premium Beauty Balm turns my skin greasy too quickly even in the depths of winter when my skin is more surface dehydrated. I have to blot frequently when using this. I'll probably pass this on to my mother instead of trying to finish it. As it's quite pricey for a BB cream, I would advise trying a sample before purchasing it, if you can. There are more reviews of it on MakeupAlley.
