Introduction to Lioele BB Creams: BB creams more suitable for the Summer?

Good morning everyone!

As we just entered in to a new month, I bought new Beauty products to try out for this Summer! And gosh, we are already half way of 2012! Time terribly flies ><

So this is going to be a little introduction post of Lioele BB Creams and may consider to look for BB Creams for this Summer :) 

If you guys have been reading my blog, my makeup routine would start with my Lancome Blanc Maqui Foundation. It's a brand new Lancome foundation (Link1, Link2) specially for Asian skins and adapted for the weather too :) I love this foundation as it gives an even and light-full coverage. Also, it reduces the redness of my acne.

Anyway, let's get down to the 2 new BB Creams i bought yesterday. I heard this brand, Lioele, a Korean Beauty brand, from a Youtube Makeup Guru, MissGlamorazzi. She visited Thailand couple months ago and she made a video haul of things she bought in Bangkok. In that video, she mentioned these two BB Creams: Lioele Beyond the solution (white/pink tube) and Water Drops BB Cream (blue tube).

Since then, MissGlamorazzi has been mentioning these products on her videos. She especially praises a lot about the Water Drops BB Cream as it is a lighter BB cream and suitable for hot/humid weather countries. So it definitely tempted me to try them although i had bad experience with the well-known SKIN79 BB cream. I find them too thick, heavy and gray on me.

Not only MissGlamorazzi been mentioning these Lioele BB Creams but some other makeup gurus I've been following on Youtube talk about it: Holly-Annaeree, Jen from Headtotoe.com and Eki chan from Ekiblog.com.

I would definitely recommend you guys to find or use (if you already have) a light-weight foundation for the summer.

SUMMER TIP:
Try to achieve a healthy and glowy looking face!

My Lancome foundation is totally the opposite. I love how it gives me a very matte finish but my face looks dry and unhealthy. Plus, it actually shows my post-acne scars more.

On MissGlamorazzi's Thailand video haul, she mentioned that she bought Lioele products at Watson in Bangkok. But it took me a while to find them for some reasons. It's strange that I couldn't find at Watson in Central World branch and the one that is near Amari on Ratchaprasong road but so far as I know, I found them at Watson Siam Square branch. 

Before I get down to the overlook of the new products, I just want to point out the prices and size I picked. 

Please note that Watson is currently on SALE and the prices I give below are the SALE price. I'm not sure how long the sale would last for this brand though. 

Lioele Beyond the solution (white/pink tube): Baht 272 for 30mL

• I bought this in 30mL (travel size) because when I tried the product on my skin at the shop yesterday, the product looked more gray than the Water Drop one. I still wanted to try out this bb cream so I picked the travel size. 

Lioele Water Drop BB (blue tube): Baht 467 for 50mL

• This bb cream only has the full size but I hope it won't let me down! 

Quick overlook of Lioele BB Creams. 

If you look at the picture above, I had given swatches of both BB creams. In reality, both look gray on my my skin. But as I blend them, they both blend well onto my skin tone. 

My first quick impression of these products is that the Lioele Water Drop BB Cream feels lighter and less thick as I blend the product on my hand. Funny thing about the Lioele Water Drop BB cream is that as I squeeze the product out on to my hand, there is a slight water drop that comes out with the product. I wonder if it's meant to do that or I may need to shake the tube before using? Can you see a small white drop on the last picture above? That is a water drop! But it definitely showed me how waterproof the product is though XD
