Excess oil and shine1 expert

“Would use it all the time, even as an oily person.”

Redness1 expert

“It has more of a gray shade to it, and [...] if you have more redness to cover this one goes better because the gray kills your redness.”

CYoung, watch at 11:28

Rough or uneven texture1 expert

“It looks so natural, any kind of texture on the skin is just completely evened out, smoothed out.”

"I decided to repurchase the Missha one. [...] The full-size one lasted me years. It lasted me so long. You don't need a lot of it. It's just perfect for me, and the color is so good. I have number 23. [...] The color match is great, and you can build it up a little bit if you want a little more coverage."

Top Pick: bb cream

Are We All OVER Being SOLD To.. or is the cycle starting over again?

"That literally is like this has been my go-to makeup. It's the Missha BB Perfect Cover. The shade I have is number 23."

EMPTIES - Used Up Products & Mini Beauty Reviews

"You get absolutely every single drop out of this and it's £10 on Amazon. It's been my favorite base for years. [...] It does have SPF, weirdly 42 in it, though I wouldn't trust that to be my SPF. I use shade 23, and it works best sheered out over moisturizer and oil. It's not hugely opaque, and [...] I probably could go a shade lighter, but going lighter than your skin [...] shows up every imperfection, so [...] I'm 100% going to repurchase it."

"For my dry mature skin, this wins definitely. I [...] recommend it for more gentlemen; I used it on my husband and it was wonderful. It's also good for oily combo girlies or tropical weather, and for anybody who wants higher coverage. [...] For my mom I just gave her multiple bottles, the Missha works so well."

I Tested 12 Viral Korean BB Creams—Which One Wins?

"This is the classic Missha BB cream, and I tested twelve BB creams total, but nothing can beat Missha, it's just amazing. [...] If I think about the price and the quality and the texture, it's just great, so this one goes to S. It gives more coverage and works well for oily combo skin, though it's a bit too liquidy to apply easily with my fingers, so I think it's better applied with a sponge."

Viral K-Beauty Tier List: Anua, Biodance, Medicube & More (Brutally Honest)

"I don't use this one for myself that much, but I'd put it as an S tier. If you think about the price, the coverage, and how little skill the texture needs, there's no need to hesitate. If you have redness or dry mature skin and your foundation or concealer just cakes and shows your wrinkles, try this BB cream instead, it applies so well and needs no skill, [...] you can put it on with just your fingers like a colored sunscreen."

I Bought EVERY Viral BB Cream to Find the Best One

"I tried both the classic and the new Missha BB cream, the new one is thinner and lighter coverage but they're pretty similar under the same brand. If you mix it one to one with your matte foundation [...] for better grip, it blends like a dream and it's under twenty dollars. If I think about the price and the value, it's going to be Missha, it's a lot better quality, and it's great for dry, mature skin. The color does have a bit of a gray undertone to it, but for the price it's still my pick."

Sephora #1 vs Olive Young #1 | Which One’s Worth Your Money?

"This is Korea's number one on Amazon and so many people know about it. It has more of a gray shade to it, and [...] if you have more redness to cover this one goes better because the gray kills your redness. Both are great for the price, this is an amazing BB cream."

Chill&Chat: CYoung’s Live

"Missha's BB cream covers redness and spots really well and it's hydrating, it used to be the number one BB cream for a long time. But from a Korean perspective it covers up too much, and it was popular a while ago, not so much anymore."

"I love the finish and coverage of the Missha BB, but with my dress's open décolletage, it looked too ashy in color. So I mixed it with a more yellow-based foundation and then added moisture back."

"I love [...] this BB cream, I think it's beautiful. [...] The one in the red tube is one of my absolute favorites because I just love the way it sits on the skin. It looks so natural, any kind of texture on the skin is just completely evened out, smoothed out. It wears nicely, it wears well. [...] I do think the red one has quite a bit more coverage. [...] My oily people, if you do want one of the Missha BB creams, go for the red one."

I spent money on viral TikTok makeup so you don't have to!!!

"One thing I always see on TikTok is the Missha BB cream. This is an absolute classic. I've been using this since the early 2000s. [...] This is a really beautiful BB cream. I'm using shade number 23. [...] This has SPF [...] 50, PA++, but please disregard any SPF in your foundation. That is not enough coverage for sun protection. [...] You would have to use a lot of BB cream to get adequate coverage. [...] It does not replace your SPF you should be applying underneath."

"I am going back to my beloved Missha Perfect Cover BB Cream so this is a BB cream obviously I'm shade number 25 at the moment I'm usually 23."

The WORST Foundations I've ever used! | DON'T BUY THESE!!

"I've used BB creams that don't do this. One of my favorite, the Missha BB creams. Love it. Would use it all the time, even as an oily person."

MUST TRY K-BEAUTY! | full face of k-beauty products!

"It is definitely a favorite amongst everyone. I think also amongst the people with oilier skins who don't want full coverage. Cause for some reason, people with oily skin tend to be marketed full coverage all the time. It's like we don't... Full coverage isn't everyone's cup of tea. [...] Sometimes we just want glowy skin that isn't oily, that isn't sweaty, that doesn't look like we've been running 50 miles. [...] Love, love, love that coverage."

"But it does look like it has a lot of fragrance. Although, I will say my favorite BB cream has a lot of fragrance and I don't smell any of it and my skin doesn't seem bothered by it. I don't know if it's because I apply it after so many other layers. I apply it after I tone, a serum, a moisturizer, a sunscreen. So it's basically my fifth layer. So I don't know if my skin is so prepped that the fragrance in here doesn't bother me, but I don't smell it at all either."

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.

Ceramides

Ceramides are part of the skin's own barrier, and moisturisers built around them have evidence for holding water in and settling the tightness and flaking that come with a damaged barrier.

Humectants and emollients

Ingredients like these draw water into the surface layers and slow how fast it leaves. The evidence is for comfort, softness and hydration rather than for changing the structure of the skin.
