Nature Republic BB Cream

          BB cream is a type of foundation that has SPF and is also said to be better for your skin than the typical foundations. My first ever BB cream was Nature Republic BB cream, which is a Korean cosmetics brand. This particular BB cream has SPF 46, collagen and is waterproof. I remember walking inside Nature Republic and saw the bb cream section. I picked this bb cream up and squeezed a little bit on my wrist. The color matches my wrist pretty well so I decided to get it. I have never really heard of bb cream before going to Korea, so why not give it a try? In Korea, I did hear lots of good things about bb cream. Oh and I also saw K-pop singers in commercial for bb cream too. I guess bb cream is a must try. 
           I think I was in Korea for about 2 weeks before I actually tried on the bb cream. I remember getting up in the morning for class and took the bb cream out to try. I applied it on my bare face without any primers or anything and thought I saw a ghost in the mirror. This bb cream was too light for my face....I guess I got a lot tanner after being in Korea. So, I didn't use it and waited until winter to try it again. Winter worked out better for me, even though the bb cream was still towards the light side. Nature Republic's bb cream is relatively smooth, but it makes my face feel a bit oily by the end of the day. Also, it can smear pretty easily. I'm still going to use it though and find ways to make it work.
