Legere BB Cream is really a cool product. It was a gift from my friend whom she bought this in taiwan. Other than that, this product was featured on the well known TV Show (Nu Ren Wo Zui Dai) and was well liked by many celebrities. It is one my favourite cosmetic now!
BB Cream is also known as Blemish Balm. It is suitable for people who had just undergone laser treatment or even cosmetic surgery and it can help to calm skin redness (which i really gave thumbs up for that). It also conceal dark eyes rings, blemishes, freckles, wrinkles and large pores. It is not as exaggerating as what was shown in the picture but it do have its great functionality. Most importantly, it does not clog your pores and it is a ALL in 1 Makeup that every women need, especially when you need moisturiser and coverage. It can be used as a makeup base, concealer or even foundation.
Here is what BB Cream do to my skin:
- Minimise pores
- it cover my skin redness very well
- it cover my dark eyes circles
- it made my skin glow a bit
BUT
if you have serious acne scarring, it can only help to minimize the appearance and not to the extend of having perfect coverage.
So, the next time when you go taiwan, do remember to get a Legere BB Cream. :)

Look out for:
- Bikini tops with horizontal strips or widely spaced prints. These create illusion of width and will do wonders to your chest.

- cover your tummy and prevent the fats from protruding it out obviously.
Look out for:
- One piece suit or Tankinis and find those princess seams that work like corsets to give you hourglass silhouette.

Ways To Prevent Ingrown Hair
When you start shaving or waxing your armpit or bikini line, you may get red and painful bumps and ingrown hairs start when a hair shaft becomes trapped beneath the skin surface. It grow downward and ended up growing into the skin.
Shaving will irritate and clog follicles, trapping hairs inside. Waxing is a better choice but it often break the hairs rather than pulling up the roots of the hair.
Symptoms of Ingrown Hairs:
- raised, small bump and maybe painful
- Slight pus forms and it resembles a whitehead. Avoid squeezing as bacteria can spread to the surround follicles and can worsen the condition.
-Skin around the bump is itchy and sensitive
How to treat ingrown hair in bikini area or underarms?
- Exfoliate regularly
Swipe your bikini line before shaving or waxing with a salicylic acid toner. This will help to keep the follicles from plugging up and will preven clogging the follicles.
- Use a sharp, new blade every 4th or 5th shave
A dull razor will abrade skin and may deposit grime and bacteria that can irritate the hair follicles and can get higher possibilities of getting ingrown hairs. Use shaving cream and shave with a short downward strokes to preven bumps.
- Try a depilatory cream
Depilatory cream can dissolve hair at the skin's surface so there is lesser risk of entrapment. Try Veet Hair Removal Cream.
