and

 

 

 

 

 

At first glance…

 

 

 

 

Liquidity

Skin79 Diamond is “thinner” than BRTC Gold Caviar

 

 

 

Color

Skin79 Diamond is “paler” than BRTC Gold Caviar

 

Fragrance

Skin79 Diamond smells good – a hint of perfume.

BRTC Gold Caviar – no smell. Similar to liquid foundation.

My Skin

Fair

Combination Skin ( Oily T-Zone )

 

Visible tiny pores

 

 

My wants.

I do not need my BB Cream to give me a good coverage as my

current foundation and concealer have served me good

all these years.

I want my BB Cream to be able to minimize my tiny visible pores

and improve the texture of my skin.

 

Please Note:

Not wanting to use or mix my BRTC and Skin 79 BB Cream,

I started off with BRTC BB Cream.

I have been using my BRTC since July 8th 2008 daily

and

tried Skin79 twice.

 

 

My verdict.

 

Oil Control

Skin79 D & BRTC G C – lasted for 5 to 6 hours

Blotting is necessary after the 6th hour.

 

 

Application

Being “thinner” Skin79 Diamond is easier to apply.

BRTC – easier to apply if your hands are warm.

I rub my hands to warm it up before the application.

 

 

Coverage

BRTC has done a good job on me.

I omitted concealer and foundation from

my casual “day look” regime.

 

Cleanser –> Moisturizer –> BB Cream –> Eye liner + Blush

 

replace my previous regime:

 

Cleanser –> Moisturizer –> Concealer –> Foundation

–> Pore minimizer powder –> Eye Liner + Blush

 

 

Whitening

No whitening effect seen.

 

 

4 weeks ago,

before BB Cream.

 

after shower – with nothing on.

 

 

2 weeks later.

 

Daily application of BRTC BB Cream for 2 weeks.

Lastly,

yesterday,

4th week into using BRTC Gold Caviar.

 

ONLY moisturizer was applied.

 

 

 

My friends,

do I need to say more?

 

 

I *heart* *heart* my BRTC BB Cream!!

 

 

BB Cream Update

 

Dear friends and readers,

 

I sincerely apologize for putting you guys on a 2 weeks wait,

hanging on the line,

waiting and waiting

for my very much DELAYED BB Cream review.

 

I was crazily busy for the last 2 weeks

and

was unable to finish the BB cream review

I have started writing 2 weeks ago.

 

 

Anyway,

by hook or by crook,

the BB cream review will be up by tonight.

But in the Cuisine world,

the “cover” will decide the fate

of the dish.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Great Qoute

 

Be more concerned with your character than your reputation,

because your character is what you really are, while

your reputation is merely what others think you are.

How to beat the Summer Heat?

 

Summer heat makes people do crazy stuffs.

 

With temperature soaring high up to 105′F,

the furthest thing you want to do it to make your

guests to “soar” higher in temperature.

 

Instead of lending everyone a helping “dish”

to beat off the heat,

I, yes me,

have intensified it further

by preparing

Bak Kut Teh

for dinner.

 

Such a good host!

hahaha.

 

I wanted to make something easy.

So what better ways are there

to make one pot dish

using those

prepacked spices

and dump whatever you want in it?

 

Yeah,

I guess i was somewhat out of my mind.

But i think my guests got it worse than me

because

they amazingly helped themselves to a second serving of

Bak Kut Teh

right after the first.

 

yes, the air conditioning was blasting away.
