I am obsessed with Skin79 Hot Pink. They sell a 4 set sampler of Skin79 with shipping on Amazon for like $10.

I got to try out all 4 creams and found the right one for me.

I haven't used the drugstore brands, but from the reviews I've seen, they don't offer a lot of coverage- one person even said they weren't much more than tinted moisturizer. I use skin79, a korean brand, and I love it. It improved my overall skin tone, and it has medium coverage, which is more than I thought it would have. it also has a dewy finish, which I really like, but may not be great for oily skin. you can get a sample set here for only $10 (it's usually $5, so it might be worth waiting a little til they change it back), and try it out.

Only about $10 including shipping! From Amazon I can't find it as cheap now but there it is

Well, there's a few ways of telling. Easiest way (for me) is to look at the veins on the inside of your wrist/forearm. If they are generally brown or green, you probably have golden undertones but you could have olive undertones (olive skin tends to be darker, though.) If they are generally blue or violet, you probably have pink undertones. If you honestly can't tell, you're probably neutral.

I am pretty pale with really strong golden undertones. The veins on the inside of my wrist are bluish green, but the veins going down the inside of my forearm are green. That same kind of green you see sometimes in healing bruises. The veins on the backs of my hands are also straight-up green.

You can also make a best guess by what kind of metal jewelry you think you look better with - folks with pink undertones tend to look better in silver, and folks with golden undertones tend to look better in gold. Neutral can wear both equally well. I never wear silver - gold always looks better on me.

The reason why this is important to figure out is because most BBs only come in a few colors, and they are usually all the same undertone. So for instance, while the Missha M perfect in shade 13 is the perfect paleness for me, it has pretty strong pink undertones...which looks awful on me. It's a total mismatch.

The best way to swatch colors is apply and blend a small amount to the side of your neck. I guess you can do this with the inside of your forearm also, but your neck is going to be closes to the tone your face should be. You should also give BBs about 10 minutes after you apply them before you gauge how well they match. Most BBs oxidize and turn a little darker as they set. The one that matches is the one that you really can't see (and look in natural light if you can!)

Skin79 also has a nice sample pack you can get here. It doesn't have all their lines (most notably missing are the Oriental Gold and Orange), but it's a good place to start. You can also easily get small 1-2 mL packet samples for brands like Holika Holika and Lioele on ebay.

Hm, I don't know if I am the best person to answer this since I'm not nearly as experienced as some of the ladies here, but maybe that will give you a better "beginner's" perspective...

  • Skin : I find starting with a prime canvas to be best! This means look at your skincare routine first before checking out makeup. I'd rather combat blemishes and other issues naturally instead of covering them up. Getting that under control is a big help!

    I've seen BB Cream described here as like a "gateway drug" to the world of makeup. Seriously, it's so easy to use. I'd suggest starting with some kind of sample set to test out what you like, but before that I suggest What the Heck is BB Cream, and Why Should I Care? as recommended reading.

  • Lips If color is scary and you just want something to make your lips look shiny, I personally feel there's nothing better than good old vaseline; you can get a tube in Target for like a buck, and it's easy as pie.

  • Eyes If "popping" eyes are something you're interested in, I personally would suggest (keep in mind I'm not some seasoned pro) learning to curl your eyelashes and apply mascara first. I think these two little things can make a world of difference. Eyeliner is great and all, but I personally feel it doesn't quite have the same impact!

    If you feel like you want to move on and check out eyeshadow and just want to start experimenting, I think Wet N' Wild's Walking on Eggshells is a great starter neutral palette. It's cheap, they're one of the more pigmented drugstore lines, and having a basic lid/crease/corner color to start is a fantastic way to learn what looks good and how to apply it.

    Since you're just getting started, I'd focus on the "how" rather than the "what"--makeup can get expensive, and I started out with really basic drugstore items first and worked my way up as I grew more comfortable.

You have such beautiful skin! I'm totally biased but I totally think you should try Skin79 Hot Pink BB cream. I'm NW15, and it's way more forgiving than foundation, while evening out my skintone without looking caked and makeupy (is that a word?). There are other formulations of the Skin79 BB cream too, you can get a sampler pack here.

For undereye bags, I currently use Maybelline Dark Circles Eraser in the Brightener shade. It's a perfect match for my skintone, though I'm currently looking for something with a little more coverage. It might be a good place for you to start though.

Would love to see you wear a subtle pink lipstick. The Revlon Lip Butters are a good way to gently introduce yourself to lipstick, if you don't usually wear it. Try Peach Parfait, Juicy Papaya, or Berry Smoothie. Here are swatches of some of my favorites:

  • 025 Peach Parfait
  • 027 Juicy Papaya
  • 015 Tutti Frutti
  • 045 Cotton Candy
  • 050 Berry Smoothie
  • 001 Pink Truffle
  • 085 Sugar Plum

    EDIT: Oops, forgot to mention that the first swatch is actually Revlon Super Lustrous in Peach Me. There we go, now the swatches should match my list. :)

This baby is currently on sale. MUA seems to like Coastal Scents.

If you're looking for light coverage with a moisturizer I would recommend a BB cream. There are many samplers you can try to find the best one.
Sephora Dr. Jart
Skin79
Retro Wombat's Sample Store (Closed now but will be open soon)

On brows, I really can't give you much advice because I personally don't like filling them in much. I just have a little NYX brow kit.

There are many other eye palettes you can get but the Coastal Scents one seems to be pretty good for its price.

Just a note about BB creams, they do not replace your sunscreen or moisturizer. You need about a dime sized sunscreen spot on your face, and you're not going to use that much BB cream.

If you're not sure about a product you can always buy/swap/resell at /r/makeupexchange. Just make sure the user is verified.

As a final note, there are no "must haves". Every body has different needs something that is a "must have" for some is a waste of money for others.

u/oosetastic · 2 pointsr/RandomActsofMakeup

Just FYI, I purchased this back in March and really enjoyed trying the different kinds!

u/IRISistable · 2 pointsr/MakeupAddiction

This may help.

That is how I was able to test them out!

u/FlabbergastedFool · 2 pointsr/AsianBeauty

I found a [sampler on Amazon] (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002HPBF32/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1) that included both the gold and the hot pink for $10. I suggest checking it out!

u/Eljay500 · 2 pointsr/MakeupAddiction

If you're interested in Asian BB creams (which work better IMO) my friend linked me to 2 sample packs on amazon and if you have prime they'll still get to you in 4 or 5 days.

u/gorgossia · 2 pointsr/MakeupAddiction

There are sample sets of Asian BB creams like this one you could get and try before shelling out for a fullsize product.

u/popholia · 2 pointsr/Makeup

I use the L'oreal BB cream. It has less coverage than some, but I use other foundations and powders, so it works for what I need. It's only around $10 and has lasted me three months so far.

I've heard that Skin79 is by far the best brand. You can buy the sampler pack on Amazon for around $10 and find which kind works best for you. It's expensive for the big containers, but people say it's totally worth it.

If you're looking for everyday makeup advice, /r/MakeupAddiction is a great place to go. Just do a search for BB cream and you'll find tons of threads with advice.

No guarantees that they're not fakes though. Be cautious!

Edit: try Yes Style (UK)

I read somewhere their stuff is legit.

u/TheGreenBasket · 2 pointsr/RandomActsofMakeup

Yup on amazon! You can find it here.

u/dreamstorming · 2 pointsr/MakeupAddiction

Usually with BB creams, they tend to oxidize after a couple of minutes after you put it on your skin, so that being said, I'd still say to swatch the colors to see which would match your skin tone. Sephora/Ulta carry a few BB creams, so you can always go in one day to swatch the different colors.

As for Asian BB creams, they tend to have more coverage and are higher in SPF (thus a bit more ~beneficial~). I personally own 2 Asian BB creams (the Skin 79 Hot Pink BB and thefaceshop BB emulsion (oil cut dual... i can't find a link for this) as well as "American/Western" BB creams like the L'oreal Youth Code and the Garnier.

From my personal experience, I've found the Asian BB creams to have too much of a grey-cast (despite being of asian skin tone myself) and sometimes, quite thick (especially the Skin79 one) while the American/Western BB creams to be too light. My current personal favorites are the Dr. Jart Water Fuse BB cream and the Mixa Expert Peau Sensible BB Crème Unifiante (which I bought in France). Both are not too dry on my face and give a good medium-ish coverage that doesn't feel too heavy. Additionally, both of them match my skin tone better as well.

Now, if you're looking for something light, I'd say definitely swatch/test out the Western brands one because most of them definitely have a lighter coverage in my opinions, but if you're looking for BB creams that have more "benefits," I've heard good things about the Etude House, and I personally know a lot of my friends like Missha (although imo it still gives too much of a grey cast...). You can also always order samples of diff Asian BB creams before making any purchase, and if you don't have any Asian cosmetics/beauty stores around your area too like these or these. I'm sure there are more selections online as well! Good luck finding your perfect BB cream!

**PS: these might help you out, asian bb creams vs americans also there are a lot of youtubers who do comparisons, so check those out as well!

Where did you get the skin79 sample set from? I got a set a few weeks ago and the packaging is a bit different from the website official picture, and it looks like yours is a bit off in the same way (I noticed it after I saw this picture). Is that just a packaging change do you think? Or actually not genuine product...

u/IvyVineLine · 1 pointr/makeupexchange

I have this [Skin 79 Miniatures set] (http://www.amazon.com/Skin79-Cream-Miniature-Mini-Black/dp/B002HPBF32/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1360865668&sr=8-4&keywords=skin79) that is virtually unused. A pinhead sized amount of the pink and gold were swatched only for me to discover they weren't my color, the other two are brand new and untouched. Still in the box. If you're interested, let me know.

u/a_lot_of_ocelots · 1 pointr/RandomActsofMakeup

Oh wow you are so nice! I am new to the community, so not as glam-less as some of the more longtime members, but I would love to enter. Glam me please! I would be so happy to get this! The item is 5 and the shipping is 4.99

u/ngkae · 1 pointr/MakeupAddiction

I'm a happa with dry/sensitive skin. I personally love the pink and the gold SKIN79 BB's.

They provide solid, buildable coverage and don't make me feel all dry and ashy-like after I pat it into my face. It does come in kind of greyish undertones, though, so definitely look into the mini sample set.

The price for the full bottle isn't so bad if you get it from certain retailers. I got mine from Amazon. Prime is the best!

u/TheSkinnyAmerican · 1 pointr/RandomActsofMakeup

Here's my ratchet no warpaint face [:)] (http://imgur.com/qVNGS77) and I'm really self conscious about my tummy (obvs, I'm rather chunky haha), my arms which are covered in raised red bumps of unknown origin, and that one tooth I have that's all crooked and pointy (y'all can see it in the picture) :)

u/samasaurous · 1 pointr/MakeupAddiction

Many brands have come out with a men's version, but I think the main difference is the scent & the price, but I don't know if the formulation is any different.

My boyfriend loves my skin79 BB cream in hot pink but it doesn't have much coverage though it is great at evening out skintone, hiding redness, and making skin soft. My boyfriend also has pitted scars from acne that seem to be neutralized with the BB cream; it doesn't hide it, but it definitely brings less attention to it. The scent isn't strong so it doesn't bother him. I should also note that it is amazing at adjusting to your skin tone! I'm southeast asian tan (~NC30) and he's caucasian and pale (~NW15) and it somehow magically works for both of us, but it does take longer to adjust to my skin than his.

You should also take into consideration what kind of skin your brother has (oily/dry/combination) and what kind of benefits he wants to gain. BB cream isn't really a miracle cream but I have noticed an improvement using certain brands. If all else fails, you can get him various samples from different brand or a sample pack like this. Also, make sure to read reviews from whichever seller or website you're buying it off to ensure that it's genuine.

So I don't knit or crochet...at all...but I really love animal hats and zebras, so this is probably the coolest thing ever.


black yarn

White yarn

purple yarn

I hope I did that yarn thing right. =/ Anyway, yarnasaurus rex :D

I really want to try these! :D

I hope that you have fun looking through all of these patterns!

u/Kontinuality · 1 pointr/RandomActsofMakeup

I think the BB cream sampler would be a good foundation (ha) to give me a gateway into the BB cream world and whether it's my thing or not. Thank you for hosting!

u/LavishPuddin · 1 pointr/AsianBeauty

My amazon shopping cart is full of these kinds of things

u/IAmASquishyBunny · 1 pointr/RandomActsofMakeup

For moisturizers and the like, I definitely recommend going to /r/SkincareAddiction, they're very nice, lots of information and everyone is very helpful. They can help you find some good moisturizers to try.

As for other more makeup related things, I've had my eye on this eyeliner set for a while now, and I might get it from a different seller when I have the disposable income (I'm currently a mostly broke college student).

I live in a really humid place, so I've got my eye on this setting powder

I'm also a sucker for cute things, so this is on my wishlist too.

If you do want to try out some BB creams, this set isn't too expensive.

I really like the Maybelline color tattoo eyeshadows. I have two, one in Pomegranate punk, and another in electric blue. They're waterproof, so I use sweet almond oil to take it off.

My Amazon wishlist is about half skincare stuff, because I think the two go hand in hand. Also I wear makeup now that I feel more confident about my face and skin.
