Jaebum Fangirl had the chance to review their Skin79 Hot Pink Super+ BB Cream 15g
Product Description: Skin79 embraces nature and science, ensuring that all its products are suitable for all skin types. Through continued research and innovation, Skin79 constantly improves and develops newer and better skincare formulas that adapt to an increasingly modern lifestyle. One of the Best Korean BB Cream!
Skin79 Hot Pink Super+ BB Cream has Adenosine and Arbutin which are effective in pigmentation lightening and in lessening wrinkles, giving you radiant and supple skin. This brand also provides UV Protection. It also incorporates a mixture of sunflower, rice bran and ivy extracts called Osmopur which protects skin from various harmful conditions. An ingredient called Phyto Complex keeps skin moist and healthy. (see product page for more details)
How to use:
1. Use small amount of BB cream after using the basic skincare products.
2. Apply evenly to clean and dry skin.
3. RE-apply as needed, 15 minutes before sun exposure. No need to apply make-up primer or foundation.
4. Lightly reapply small amount for perfect looking blemish coverage.
5. For dry skin types, use sufficient amount of moisturizers prior to using the BB cream to maximize the best outcome.
6. For oily, blemish-prone skin types, minimize the usage of basic skincare lines to control any excessive oils.
My Review: Don’t you just hate the thick suffocating feeling of foundations and concealers? I can never get the right color and it is just too much work to put my primer, foundation, concealer, and THEN powder. I am just too busy for that. If you are like me, then you need to get BB cream. It is your one step everything to make you skin flawlessly beautiful.
I have looked online and I discovered that this BB cream — the Skin79 Hot Pink Super+ BB Cream — is one of the best out there. After trying it out myself, I have to agree! The BB cream comes out with a grey hue that evenly oxidizes into your skin tone. This is brilliant — I never have to worry about whether this will match my skin tone…because it literally changes and matches your skin tone! It is not thick at all — it has great coverage yet feels like I have no makeup on my skin. The Skin79 Hot Pink Super+ BB Cream also looks and feels so natural, as though my skin is just naturally flawless. I have large pores and a little bit of blackheads, so this fantastic foundation-and-concealer in one pump is brilliant and so time consuming.
What is also great about this BB cream is that…it is actually good for your skin! Unlike other makeup that leaves your skin with pimples and impurities, the Skin79 Hot Pink Super+ BB Cream provides nutrition and UV Protection. I have even noticed that my skin actually improved after using this BB cream. I don’t know how it works; all I know is that it does work!
After using BB cream, I will never go back to using plain foundations or concealers. There is a reason why so many youtube beauty gurus are raving about BB cream. It is simple. BB cream works. Try it out — I promise that you will not regret it!

Jaebum Fangirl will review TWO sunglasses from 80s Purple’s Eyewear 80s Collection
The two that I will review are Griffin Square Classic Aviators (Black/Smoke) and ‘Elite’ Mirror Aviator Sunglasses (58mm) (Gold/Mirror)
Griffin Square Classic Aviators (Black/Smoke) – With these 100% UV Protected aviator sunglasses your not only be safe this summer but also wearing one of today’s most popular accessories. Nothing is more classic then a pair of aviators.
‘Elite’ Mirror Aviator Sunglasses (58mm) (Gold/Mirror) – the aviator style traces back to the 1920’s when it was invented specifically for the military to protect and clarify pilots’ vision when up in the air. The Elite Mirror aviator sunglasses have fully reflective lenses and a clean spring hinge design. featuring an over sized teardrop-shaped lens that provides good cover of one’s eyes and a thin metal frame connecting the two lenses, the versatility of the shape suits nearly any face shape.
- Provides 100% UV protection.
- Microfiber Soft Pouch Included
- Polycarbonate Lens
- Total width/Lens Height (mm): 148 / 48
- Free Shipping on any 2 pairs with code: eyesonus
I love sunglasses. In fact, some people even say that I am addicted to sunglasses. What can I say? Sunglasses look great and protect your eyes from harmful UV rays. Also, if you are like me, you sometimes go out without makeup. This is when a good pair of sunglasses can come in handy. If I could recommend good affordable sunglasses, I would suggest you visit 80s Purple’s Eyewear 80s Collection!
Out of the two, ‘Elite’ Mirror Aviator Sunglasses (58mm) (Gold/Mirror) is my favorite! The quality of this sunglasses is amazing. It can withstand any beach/summer holiday! I just love the gold hue. For the summer, I want to add a little shine to my sunglasses, so the gold is just perfect to give me that summer glow. I especially like the over sized teardrop-shaped lens because it gives a good cover to my eyes from the sun. I have been using this already and I just love it!
Griffin Square Classic Aviators (Black/Smoke) is also a great sunglasses. I gave this one to my fiance because it is a bit masculine for my taste. It looks great on him! He absolutely loves it. I think aviators look great on any gender and any face shape. This is why I always purchase aviators for gifts. It is a safe yet useful gift. My partner loved it, so I am sure any of my readers would also find loved ones who would love a great aviator sunglasses!

Idylle was conceived by two brothers and entrepreneurs, Tyler and Drew Ramsey. The company started out in their parents house in 2005, shipping product out of the garage until they grew out of the space.
Starting off initially as a men’s humor tee shirt company, the brand quickly evolved into what is now an internationally known women’s fashion brand. Every element of the company has been “hands on” from the beginning: The photography, catalogs, trade show booths- have all been created and built by the owners to keep with the cohesive look and feel of Idylle.
In 2008, the company moved to Orange County to be closer to the manufacturing in L.A., and is where Idylle currently resides. Idylle constantly strives for quality and prides itself on the unique and whimsical graphics that it has always been known for.
The Idylle girl is a confident young woman who is fanciful, unique, and eclectic. She doesn’t have to wear what her friends are wearing. She enjoys a vintage concept to her wardrobe, while still being relevant to modern trends. She is lovely and romantic. She is Idylle.

Jaebum Fangirl had the chance to review their 42 (Cinder, Reverse V neck sweater)
Price: $68.00
Overview:
♥ Reverse V Neck Sweater: 100% Cotton
♥ Machine wash
♥ Manufactured in the USA
♥ This item can be shipped internationally
My Review: I was slightly surprised when I got the sweater in the mail since it looked different from the website picture. But this surprise quickly changed into delight. This is by far one of the best spring and summer sweater in my closet. It is thin enough so that you will not get too sweaty from the rising heat. I especially love wearing this over a black tank top and some skinny jeans. This sweater is so cute and has a young preppy style that I just adore.
This sweater is made by %100 Cotton. It is super comfortable. I could not be more pleased with the quality of this sweater. This is definitely something I foresee wearing quite often. I just love it!
