New UK Stockist for Korean BB Creams

July 3, 2013 · In: First Look

Best BB Creams

Korean BB Creams have the reputation for being the absolute best (although they were actually created by a German doctor and not in Asia as a lot of people think!) and yet they are notoriously tricky to source in the UK, which usually means we have to rely on eBay.  I’m okay with eBay;  I know it’s a risk but I do think it’s the only way we can get hold of certain products and for quite some time I relied on it for keeping my Bioderma stock going.  However, I’m aware a lot of people aren’t a fan of using it and would prefer to purchase from a trusted source, so I’m pleased to report that there is a new UK Stockist for Korean BB Creams!

Best BB Creams stocks a decent range of Korean brands and isn’t just limited to BB Creams, despite what the name suggests.  Keep in mind that the shop is very new, so there isn’t a large stock yet.  Shipping appears to be a flat rate of £2.60 regardless of how many items you purchase, making it a far more suitable and purse-friendly approach to importing from Asia.

For the benefit of full disclosure, I’m being sent a few products to review from the site, but I wanted to let you know about it ASAP and not hold off until I could review a sample.  You’ll find it here.

    It’s definitely a better way of getting hold of them than ordering on ebay but the same problem remains of colour matching and getting a formulation that suits your skin.

    Are they going to be doing sample sachets or are the expecting people to buy on the chance it’s the right one?

    Thank you Sarah for addressing the problem.
    I have included the closest MAC shades in the additional
    information of each BB cream and I will work on getting
    samples.

      Excellent – I’m never sure if BB creams cater to warm/cool or neutral skin tones but hopefully the good ones will let the natural colour shine through anyway.

      I’ll have a look and see what you’ve got! If there’s that many it would be helpful for a small note with each one – eg *good for combination skin or *best for high spf coverage to help people make a decision.

      Good luck with it tho!

      It’s where the craze all began – although the idea actually started in Germany – but you will definitely find some of the best over there so well worth checking out! xx
