This is a unicorn among foundations - a foundation shade that is too light for me. I bought it as a replacement for Missha's Signature BB RX, which I still have, but save obsessively because it's so good and it was discontinued before I got a chance to buy a backup. The ingredients list of Perfect Blanc is not as impressive as at RX, but it still has niacinamide, a little bit of vitamin C, adenosine and some extracts, plus the SPF is 50 instead of 42. It's described as a brightening foundation and promises to even out the skin tone with prolonged use.

Texture: it's a standard creamy BB, similar to It Cosmetic's CC. Their Signature Real Complete and RX BBs are lighter, more fluid. It blends easily on the skin, but I occasionally have trouble with it looking obvious on my chin, as it doesn't melt into the skin well there. It can also look completely natural and nicely blended - I haven't found out what the reason is.

Coverage and finish: coverage is about light-medium. I need an extra layer under the eyes and on any redness. It layers ok in thin coats. Finish is slightly glowy on me, but not in a greasy way. Missha's Magic Cushion foundation has a similar glow, but is more satin of the two. It stays slightly tacky for a long time, but it doesn't wipe off when I touch it.

Staying power: it lasts well on me (dry skin with no oil during the day) and wears off evenly.

Shade: I have the lightest #19 Rosy. At other Missha's BB I used #13 (Real Complete) and #17 (RX). #17 is my best match and has a nice beige-neutral undertone, while #13 is pale, but grey. This BB's lightest shade #19 is very light, lighter than my skin tone which only happened to me twice before (Max Factor and Colourpop), though it actually blend ok into my neck. I just feel it make me look too pasty, so I mix it with the too dark It Cosmetic's CC in Fair Ivory. #19 Rosy has a pink undertone and Fair Ivory a yellow one, so I get a perfect match mixing these, as I get a neutral undertone.

Scent: It has no scent.

Packaging: a soft tube with a pump. Packaging is similar to RX.

Price and availability: I ordered it online on Notino when it had a discount, as regular price is steep at almost 30 €.

I've been a fan of Max Factor's lip glosses since trying Silky Gloss as a kid. I remember it being so much better than other formulas, so pleasantly balmy. Since then they had other formulas, among them Honey Lacquer and Colour Elixir Cushion, which I liked too and these Lip Glazes are similar.

It's another super comfortable, balmy formula that feels great on the lips. The only difference that I can see is that they are either thicker or the big applicator allows for a thicker application, in any case you end up with more product on the lips. They last well for lip glosses, though not like Catrice's Lip Oils (those set the bar quite high). I got 9 shades that are sold here.

000 Melting Ice is a clear gloss with silver and some multicolour shimmer. I wish they added more of this shimmer, which would make it stand out more and now it just like a classic clear formula.

005 Honey Crème is a clear gloss with golden shimmer. It reminds me of a shade of Clarins' Lip Oils.

010 Cotton Candy is an essentially clear gloss, though it looks light pink-peach in the tube. It has a cream finish.

050 Guava Flair is a light peachy-pink with more peach tones - the colour in the tube is deceptive at this one when my skin tone is concerned. This one is close to fully opaque. Cream finish.

075 Pink Fizz is a coral with gold shimmer. Sort of opaque.

085 Floral Crème is an opaque medium pink-mauve. My favourite.

105 Berry Sorbet is the deepest shade, a pink-purple/berry shade. For full opacity it needs to be applied in a thick coat, but it's hard to make it even. Cream finish.

150 Caramel Swirl is a medium brown with a cream finish. This one likely looks less warm-peachy on deeper and warmer skin tones.

170 Nectar Punch is a brown orange with gold shimmer.

These have a lovely vanilla scent that's typical of Max Factor glosses.

The doe foot applicator is big and the indentation holds a lot of product. I open these carefully because gloss can drop from the applicator.

Price is 9,69 €.
