Fairy Drops Candy Bar BB Cream in Ochre Review & Swatches

I bought this Fairy Drops Candy Bar BB Cream in Ochre a year ago around early July 2011 and didn't know  it would be one of the most raved BB creams around. Being a Japanese BB Cream from the Fairy Drops company, which was created by a former LA TV Caster Mayumi Yasutomo, this BB Cream is supposed to make our skin look good on air, when filming. Therefore it has no sunscreen or sun protection(spf), as the ingredients that are used to protect us against sun such as the titanium dioxide may oxidise on our skin after a few hours and leave a grey cast.

 If you don't know what BB Creams are please do google it up because you might just be missing this ultimate sunscreen( this BB Cream is different because it has no spf, most others do )primer, foundation, moisturiser, occasionally whitening, anti-wrinkle product in your life! 

The packaging is very well made, in a sense that they thought well about making it look cute and at the same time very portable(because of the sponge tip applicator, we don't need to bring extra foundation brush). The BB Cream is contained in a candy bar shaped bottle that has a cap, we can detach the compartments like shown in the photo above. The sponge can be removed and washed when we want to. The lace design with jewels and the brand name font is utterly cute/kawaii (>.<) .I actually bought this in Hong Kong for HK$198 in City Super, along with several other FAIRYDROPS items because of the irresistibly cute packaging design. 

It turned out that the content is very high quality, so I am really really satisfied! 

The back packaging mentions that :

-Has high-tech 5 kinds of Treatment Essence in it

- Micro-Gold Pearl hides scars and freckles

- Cover with thin film, and protect from dry and rough skin

- Soft Focus Powder uses light diffusion not to show wrinkles and make smooth skin

-Waterproof formula prevents Oily, shinny(package has wrong spelling :P ) skin

 This BB Cream has a thick consistency that is very easy to blend out using our fingers or the sponge tip applicator that we can dab directly on to our face. It has a high coverage that is build-able. When I use this, I find that I didn't need to apply any concealer and instead apply another layer of BB cream on top of my eye bags area. This BB cream does not melt off our face and performs well in cold and hot temperatures (in my country it's hot and in the holidays when I went overseas, it's cold) possibly due to the fact that it has a waterproof formula :) 


This BB cream has a yellow undertone and fits around MAC's NC 30, it has a yellow undertone which suits most Asian skin with a natural beige skin tone.  I find that this doesn't accentuate the dry spots on my face and has proven its moisturising quality! I hugely recommend this product to people who want high coverage, moisturising properties and a flawless look on your face!


This is definitely my favourite BB cream so far that I own and I would definitely repurchase this because the colour match is very accurate to my face even though it looks different from my hand in the swatches. I absolutely love this BB Cream!
