i received 2 samples of Hanskins Glossy Magic BB Whitening when i purchased my Skinfood stuff a month ago.
colour: this bb cream contains pearl particles, which really brightens up your complexion but not in a super-bling kinda way. it's really subtle and imparts a dewy glow to your skin. the colour itself is medium yellow toned and matches pretty well to my NC30. actually the colour is better than Skinfood Shade #1 and #2.
texture: slightly - juuuust slightly thicker than Skinfood and it takes a teeny bit while longer to sink in to your skin.
coverage: pretty good - a teeny bit more than tinted moisturiser. the pearl stuff really helps in camouflaging imperfections by deflecting light (or something like that..)
scent: there is no scent, which is good for those sensitive to fragrances. but i am starting to like my sweet-scented skinfood stuff. darnnnn...sweet scented products!!
performance: i have only worn this for a few days so could not comment on the whitening power. oil-control was not so great though, i needed to blot once-twice a day. these days, i tap a tiny dot underneath my eyes to hide circles and appear bright-eyed when i'm really not.
i read about Besame's discounts at lilita's and Blogdorf Goodman's blogs - and of course i caved.
i have been wanting to order their products for sometime now, but they were pretty expensive (not to mention the shipping costs too!). so this is a good excuse for me to purchase me some pretty make up! don't they look just gorgeous? i hope they get to mama safely...

Gosh, this product has a super long name. And I don't get why they would call it Beblesh... what a weird name. But anyway, asian products have weird names usually, so why should this be any different? LOL..
I only have a mini size for this, as per picture, I love the hot pink mini tube, perfect for travelling.
Colour: closest match to my skintone - MAC NC30. No heavy pink undertones like SF Mushroom and not too light like SF Aloe.
Scent: very very faint scent - almost none. It's a shame because I'm beginning to get used to SF's scents. Although this is good for those allergic to fragrance.
Texture: somewhat thicker than SF's bb creams, and blending takes a wee bit more work. but payoff is that the colour matches better to skinton.
Wear: it is now 3pm and I applied this at 6AM - today I wore it under Rimmell's primer and my skin shows minimal shine.
All in all, I feel this is a bit better in oil control. It evens out my skintone as per the other bb creams. Long term effects/benefits yet to be seen. I've only worn this twice so far.
