AMW Reviews: Snoe S Skin BB Cream

Happy Friday my friends!  How are you feeling today?  I'm feeling a bit better, thanks to my wonderful friends who messaged me through Twitter, FB and mobile phone!  (You guys know who you are)  Thank you so much for the cyber hugs, love and support!  I can totally feel it even though I don't physically see you guys! :)

God really works His ways through family and friends!  Don't you agree?

Today, I will be reviewing one of the most inexpensive, YET EFFECTIVE BB Cream to date!  I almost did not test this product as I thought color matching would be a problem!  I'm glad I gave this a test and I even brought this with me during my recent trip as  I didn't want to carry the bulky Skin79 VIP Gold bottle!

Snoe says ---
Quench, Protect, Conceal and Correct your skin with S-Skin BB Vitamin E SPF 30. Fortified with vitamin E to moisturize and regenerate your skin, giving you a movie-star glow!
Size: 40ml
Available in 3 shades.
Ingredients: 


AMW says ---
Pros
  • Cute simple squeeze type packaging.
  • Has SPF30.
  • Has Vitamin E which is good for your skin for long term.
  • Has light coverage and can correct certain areas like dark spots and dull skin.
  • Creamy and easy to blend.
  • Gives a nice glow but not the "disco-ball type" of glow.
  • Available in 3 shades! (most BB Creams come in 1 or 2 shades only.)
  • Doesn't have weird scent.
  • No white cast.
  • Keeps my skin moisturized throughout the day.
  • Never feels heavy or oily.
  • Inexpensive as a little goes a long way.
Cons
  • Very oily skinned individuals may need more oil control.
  • A bit difficult to color match if you're online shopping.
Overall
I am really surprised when I applied this all over my face and stepped back!  I almost do not need to set with a setting powder especially if you're going for the smooth, plump and glowing (not oily) skin.  I find myself calling this the local version of my Skin79 VIP Gold BB Cream.
 
Tips
  • Oily skinned individuals may still need to use an oil-control primer.
  • If you will be out under the sun for prolong period of time, do not skip sunblock application!  Sunblock is applied before BB Cream.
  • If you have fairly good skin, use this BB Cream alone applying more on areas that needed coverage or correction then set with your choice of setting powder.
  • Though online shopping is fun!  It is better to try on testers before you pick your shade!
  • Unsure if this BB Cream would work for you or not?  Share with a friend!  Purchase containers and split the price of the BB Cream!  You get to save at the same time, you have the chance to road test for a couple of weeks if the product works for you or not.
  • Once signs of irritations occur, stop usage IMMEDIATELY!  
Will I repurchase?
Yes!  I'm almost done with my Skin79 VIP Gold BB Cream (and it's my last bottle)

To whom do I recommend this to?
Normal, Combination and Dry Skin.  If you have sensitive skin, please do a patch test before applying the product all over your face!

Where to purchase and how much?
Available at Ground Floor Cinderella Glorietta Makati, Festival Mall Alabang, SM Muntinlupa, SM Valenzuela or ONLINE for Php249.00 (approx $5.80).

For the sake of review, I am very brave to show you my "not the best looking" photo, I only applied a good amount of Snoe BB Cream Shade 3 all over the face adding a bit more on the center of my face!  I filled my brows and my skin is actually ready to face the world!  (I did say my skin is ready to face the world but a tiny help of under eye concealer would still be needed, hehehe).  But as you can see, my skin looks even and the redness on my cheeks were gone!


A closer look on my skin with Snoe S Skin BB Vitamin-E! 
I hope the long term effect is as good as Skin79!

Have you tried Snoe S Skin BB Cream?
Would you give this brand a try considering its price?

  1. Oh, I would like to try this one. It's indeed very inexpensive versus the other BB cream brands. Guess I would've to purchase it online though. I still have to find the BB cream that would perfectly suit me.

  2. Absolutely true...what effect it has on the long run is much more important...sounds like an interesting product with the vitamin E which makes a face glow.

  3. I tried this one and it is a good product! You're right, it does not have the "disco glow" effect which I do not like :)

    1. Those are the locations that you can find Snoe for now! :) Maybe if you get the chance to visit lang! I think they are growing pa naman so I'm sure you'll get to buy someplace nearer to you :D

    2. I was willing to wait to buy this from SM Muntinlupa when I was scheduled for a trip there next month, when I found a Snoe stall in Robinson's Galleria today! I'm sorry, in my hurry (it was lunch break) I just bought the No.2 shade recommended by the sales lady and didn't note where exactly in the mall it is. I think it's on the 3rd floor near the escalators, one of those little kiosks in the middle of the lane where shoppers pass to get to the mall wing. Hope this helps those who are located in Ortigas / San Juan / Mandaluyong area.

    1. Yes Jessica, I remembered you asking about it and I was just testing pa that time but not as often! As I was alternating between Skin79 and this, and so far, I've used this on a daily basis and is loving it! I'm glad you liked it too! :)

    1. I think you can still counter the shade with your powder foundation or use a bronzer if its too light for you :D

      Delete
    2. oh my i didn't notice the comments and actually posted the same thing twice :)) i'll try to do the foundation powder trick -- i haven't done it yet :)) and when i finish my bottle, i'll test #3 and compare :)

      Delete
    3. It's okay :) Yup, that's what I do if the BB Cream doesn't match me, I adjust it by using Bronzers if the BB cream is too light on me or use a lighter foundation if it's too dark on me :D it helps :) Goodluck! :)

  10. I wish you also did a swatch test on the hand just like the BSkin BB Cream that you reviewed, just to see the shade.. :) Love your review on the Eye Boop eyeliner as well ^^v
