Early verdict · Few reviews so far

What they liked

  • Nude shade better for covering blemishes
  • Soft focused finish
  • Mineral pigments suit sensitive skin

What they flagged

  • Expensive for a BB cream

What the gurus are saying

The soft, blurred finish that evens skin tone is the draw, though the premium price tag makes this a splurge rather than an everyday buy. The mineral pigments work well for sensitive skin, and the nude shade covers blemishes better than the clear.

"This one did a great job, so I was going to give it an S, but I'm giving it an A because of the price, it's too expensive. They have a clear color and a nude color, but I recommend the nude color more because the clear color looks a little pinky, so in terms of covering blemishes this color works better. The coverage and texture are just like a classic gray BB Cream, everything about it is amazing, but it doesn't go to S because it's just expensive."

I Bought EVERY Viral BB Cream to Find the Best One
"I tried the Erborian BB Cream with other makeup artists and everybody said they love Erborian. It applies so well, with a similar or slightly lower coverage than Missha, but it definitely covers redness. If you have rosacea or more redness I highly recommend going with the nude shade over the clair shade, it covers red more efficiently and blends better, the clair shade feels a bit too orangey on me."
Ultimate Viral BB cream Guide: Game-Changing Tips No One Tells You
"Everybody picked this as number one, even though it doesn't have as high coverage as the Missha, because it fits your skin so well, it's very creamy, well made, and worth the money. It gives weightless skin, like perfection, and in the oxidation test there was almost zero darkening, no muddiness, even hours later. A very pro makeup artist I know keeps it as their ride or die pick."

"There's just not enough superlatives for me to explain how much I love that product. It is without a doubt my go-to skin coverage. So don't panic about the reformulation as far as I'm concerned it performs in exactly the same way. It's just more suited for all skin conditions including very sensitive skin because of the 100 mineral pigments. The BB Cream goes on as a tint and just gives you soft focused skin."

What the evidence says.

Independent of what the gurus think, this is what the published research supports about the main active ingredients here.

Sunscreen filters

Sun protection is the best evidenced way to slow visible ageing, and the filters are what does the work. Mineral and chemical filters both protect when a product is applied thickly enough and often enough, which is where most people fall short rather than on the choice of filter.

Vitamin E

Vitamin E is an antioxidant, and it is often in a formula to keep the other ingredients stable rather than as the active itself. It pairs well with vitamin C, though on its own the evidence for visible change is limited.
