after putting moisturizer to my face, i put maybelline bb cream. I love this product, i dont't even use any powder or foundation after putting the cream. No oily face at all. Can you suggest other brand that will suit to morena (brown complexion skin).

Im using a local brand called Caring Colours by Martha Tilaar BB cream, it is really good, not heavy on my face and the color matches with my skin tone which is south east asian skin tone. I never used Korean BB cream, I thought they have different skin tone with my skin tone so I prefer using my local brand and Martha Tilaar is a big cosmetic company since years ago I've been using their products from long time. Caring Colour BB creams has three different type: Fair white, everlast and luminizing. Caring Colours BB creams Everlast is good for oily skin, Fair white is to enlighten skin, while Luminizing has anti aging formula. Im not sure if it is available in your country, the product isn't expensive here it is cost about $7.

My mom love BB Cream Caring Colours so much. Her favorite is fair white one =) She has just been running out the second tube! I am sure she will buy the third one soon ;D I do hope Marthe Tilaar would promote their products worldwide - since Indonesia has that great brand and a cool traditional - modern concepts like that. It would attract foreigners to try the stuffs. btw, do you use the powder of Caring too after applying BB cream?

Hi Juliyan, I do love my BB cream by Caring Colours too it is affordable yet it suits my skin tone. Yes I put on the powder after applying BB cream, we get free powder when we purchase BB cream. I think Martha Tilaar product has been promoted worldwide especially the Spa product (Dewi Sri Spa Martha Tilaar) They have spa franchise not only in Indonesia but also abroad such as Malaysia, Singapore, Monaco, etc. What I like from Martha Tilaar, they always update their products and following global trends. I remember when botox was popular, Martha Tilaar then launched Bio Botuline product. The product has effects similar to botox (which actually made from botulinum toxin) but botuline is made from okra seed, wild yam root extract, etc so it is much safer and cheaper to use than botox injection. Their makeup products also excellent from lower class to upper class (mirabella, sari ayu, caring colours to PAC). You are right, Martha Tilaar brand is based on traditional ingredients but has passed modern research, it is safe to use and suits Indonesian skin tone.

Hi juliyan, I have also a oily face. I frequently put face powder every 30minutes to prevent this oiliness. Oily face makes me have pimples specially on my nose. Thank you for sharing. Maybe i'll try this maybelline bb cream. Hope it will suits me cause I really don't like pimples.

Hi iamJB7 ! Ah yes,I have to re-make up the face powder regularly to cover my oily face - and it is bit annoyed . lol Yeah! I have problem too about pimples and also black head over my nose. And BRTC Caviar BB Cream has been helping me so well . Personally, I haven't ever used maybelline BB cream - but it seems Maverick has used it . So you can ask directly if maybelline could solve the pimples problem to her ;)

In fact I think that BB cream works like the foundation. But perhaps it is much more natural and it also have the sun-block function. Maybelline BB cream is a good brand because it works well and the price is reasonable. Faceshop's BB cream is also nice. Here I am even surprised to learn that there is CC cream but I am not sure what's the difference between it and BB cream. I love China

I don't use much stuff on my face too and I have no idea what to suggest you. I normally just apply a normal moisturizer from forever living products and it is enough for my face. I also don't use any powder. I am sure other mylotters will be able to help you out here. Thanks for sharing and have a wonderful day ahead.

Hi vanessa11! Wah you are a fans of Korean make up, rite? :) I ever wore Missha BB cream , but it seemed just not into me. My face was so dull and full of acnes after applying it several times. But I love Feverlet HD BB cream and also BRTC caviar BB cream, those are so fabulous on my skin . And reduce my acnes so fast ^,^ Do you get some problem with acnes and dull skin, vanessa11?

Oops, I just remember now to check the discussions I have responded to tehehe, Juliyan23 yep yep yep I am a fan of Korean make ups. But for now, I stopped using any kind of make up (except for lipbalm) since I have mild acnes (it suddenly pop on my face urgh!) And so because of that, I went to derma clinic to help me get rid of it. And after a month, my face is starting to go back to what it was before (I'm SO glad). I guess the reason why those begin to show on my face is when I started to go on a night shift from my work :( I just need to wait for a few weeks more yay! And I'm going to start buying Korean make-ups =D Cheers!
