I guess it's been a year when my sister went to Korea and hauled so many Korean products where she gave me a decent amount of some stuff. This Luminous Aura from Tony Moly was one of those 'few' stuff she gave (hahaha) and became my go-to when I used up all my BB Snail cream from the same brand. I have it for almost a year and finally said bu-bhye. You'll see it on my empties post here.
She purchased a set of both BB and CC creams. Technically, the one included here is my very first CC cream in all my beauty products. I have always relied on BB creams and brushed CC creams off aside. Only to find out that this does wonders on my face.
The CC cream or color correct changes to match the skin tone as soon as it's applied on the face to create brightness and illuminates the skin while BB provides moisturizing hydration and cover lacking coverage to create bright and luminous face.
Both products in the set has SPF. The Goddess Aura BB Cream has SPF 37 PA+++ while the Pure aura CC Cream has SPF30 PA+++. Both are 30 ml. It's a deluxe size.

I like that this set is a combo. After using CC cream, I use BB cream right after. This combined will last me for the whole day with a minimum powder touch-ups. How does it look?
It doesn't cake unlike other foundation especially when used with a brush. With the CC and BB combined, I am guarded with a flawless skin. Definitely worth my sister's penny! Haha.
Yay for me! (。◕‿◕。)
What do you think? Share your own thoughts! Xoxo ♥Yay for me! (。◕‿◕。)
- Great coverage.
- It moisturizes and covers imperfections really well.
- Handy packaging
- Long-wearing. Can last up to 8 hrs for both products used on the face.
Nay! (。◕︵◕。)
- I hope the container is a pump but nevertheless, love the product so much!
Price: P900+ (it's a gift)
Bought from: Tony Moly
Size: Both 30 ml.
i just learned what BB creams and CC creams are for, haha. I never really knew what BB creams were even though I'm familiar with them. Your face looks clear. This lasts you the whole day already? I've got friends who love Korean cosmetics. Now I understand why.
ReplyDeleteYep. I feel like my skin is glowing for the whole day at work. Around 8 hrs at most. So I guess it would count as almost the whole day.
DeleteMy sister loves BB and CC creams too. Regardless of the brand etc, but she particularly likes uses some Korean products as the outcome is natural.
ReplyDeleteTrue! I am more into Korean brands as well since I think they look more natural. :).
DeleteIt looks like the camera just lighten up with your before and after photos. But I think, It's just the effect of your BB & CC cream. Cool!
ReplyDeleteAll three photos are indoor shots without flash so it is not really the effect of the camera. And if you will look at the forehead and eye part, it became bright covering the dark spots. NO EDITING APP WAS USED HERE. :)
DeleteI have never tried CC creams before.. will check them out the next time I go shopping. Love the look of the combi CC & BB on your skin. really flawless.
ReplyDeleteThanks sis. Yep. It's better if you'll use both for maximum coverage. :)
DeleteThese creams really work well with you :)
ReplyDeleteI also think the same way ^_^
DeleteWow! You can combine them pala! I thought they're kind of the same.
ReplyDeleteSomehow yes, because they're both creams? Hihi. I also use BB cream only when I'm on a rush though. :)
DeleteLook good on you! :)
ReplyDeleteThank you :)
DeleteI've just learned about CC Cream today, I have no idea about the use of CC cream before.
ReplyDeleteIt's good to know right? :)
DeleteI love Korean beauty products and would definitely like to try some of these creams, they come wrapped in a wonderful package as well!
ReplyDeleteI always adore Korean beauty products packaging. I think it really suits them well.
DeleteLooks good on you. You actually look fairer. Nice product. If I were to use a similar product, I would like to use this one.
ReplyDeleteThis is actually nice. Hope you'll have the chance to use this one.
DeleteI love this particular CC cream - are they back? Coz for a while, I couldn't find them in any TonyMoly stores.
ReplyDeleteReally? I know they are available at some branches. Not sure on your end though. Where are you located ba sis?
DeleteI wish meron malapit na TonyMoly store here. I have read good reviews about their products but wala store near, huhu.
ReplyDeleteOh too bad. I hope they open more branches.
DeleteLooks great on you. I haven't tried using BB or CC cream. I'm still sporting good old concealer but lately I've been meaning to try. Do you know a store in QC where can I buy these stuff? Thanks.
ReplyDeletewww.hintofglitter.com
Tony Moly stores are located in malls around the metro.
DeleteI already use BB Cream but I want to give CC Creams try. Thanks for sharing this.
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome. :)
Deleteyour skin looks flawless with that product..anyway, how do you differentiate bb and cc cream? i have no idea about that kasi..hahaha
ReplyDeleteI mentioned it above sis.
Deletegirl talk ata ito.hehe
ReplyDeleteI'll consider it as general talk. And pls at least "10 words". Thanks!
Deleteoh you're lucky to have these korean products! looks promising!
ReplyDeleteThanks. They look 'luminous'. Haha.
DeleteI didn't know if my comment went through but here it is again:
ReplyDeleteYou are so lucky to have someone buy Korean products for you. I love BB and CC cream <3 Love how they give awesome finish on my skin.
Haven't tried Tony Moly's but will definitely get one soon.
Tahnks for your review!
You're welcome sis. :)
DeleteIt looks great on you Sis and love your review as always. I haven't tried tony moly brand yet but it looks like a good brand to try.
ReplyDeletewww.sweetcuisinera.com
It really is. I tried their Snail Cream BB before and totally used it up for a year. Looks good! You should get one and try it.
DeleteIt looks best with the combination of BB and CC cream. You're face looks more radiant.
ReplyDeleteI also think so. Thanks! :)
DeleteI'd love to give CC Cream a try!
ReplyDeleteYou should. It looks great on the skin.
DeleteHow much is it?
DeleteIt's a sale item when my sister bought it. Around 900+ but less than 1k.
DeleteNaks. Lakas maka-fresh ng beauty review mo! Anyhow, my sister will definitely love your review!
ReplyDeleteThanks Sef. Fresh talaga ah. I love that comment., I love you na haha!
DeleteGreat that the creams work for u! :) I always love Korean products for their packaging.
ReplyDeleteI also have the same reason why I love them. But deeper than that, I like how their product works well on my skin as well.
DeleteI wish I have a sister like yours too... Pasalubong like this is great to have. I heard CC cream before but I don't know its use until I read it here. It's nice that it has a good range of SPF, still I don't think it's advisable to spent long hours under the sun when wearing this.
ReplyDeleteOf course, it's always advisable to wear sunblock if you are "literally" spending time under the sun for long hours. Actually it is not advisable to spend long hours under the sun especially from 10am-3pm. :)
DeleteI can clearly see the difference, even though I have sealed Korean products as mostly for fair skinned people
ReplyDeleteThere are Korean products for "not-so-fair skinned people too. :)
DeleteNow I know the difference between BB and CC cream. I should try using CC cream. Baka may pag-asa pa. ;)
ReplyDeleteYou can try a few before sticking on a CC that suits your skin tone and your needs.
DeleteI havent tried any cc creams yet but with your review i want to try it the soonest
ReplyDeleteYou should sis. It works best! :)
