Review: NATURE REPUBLIC Photoshot 3D BB Balm - #23 Natural Beige

Hellooo ~ This is a product that I have been using since October 2013, but only at home when I'm taking selcas HAHAHA
I started using this product to my outdoor activities last week, when I'm running out of Any Cushion.


Product description and information
This BB Balm, with it's Photoshop effect, corrects skin tone making your skin velvety soft with it's excellent covering function.
3D powder complex of Nature Republic BB Balm covers the skin softly and perfectly from external skin defect.
Nature Republic BB Balm sticks to skin naturally and makes your skin shinny, glossy young image. When you touch a skin with this BB Balm, you can show a vivid face as it is applied to Photoshop effect with these 3 functions:
Perfect Skin Cover, Photo-gel 3D powder complex cover the skin from blemishes, scars, and unevenness 
UV Protection, protects the skin from harmful UV rays with 30 PA+++
Brightening effect, makes skin shinny and keeps young image

PS: I took the product information from various sites, since I can't access Nature Republic's official page....

Before I continue, I just found out from Dailymed that this product contains 21,7% of Titanium Dioxide. See the details about Titanium Dioxide here
I can't pull out a conclusion since it's quite long to read LOL. However, the information there sounded okay to me.



The compact is made of plastic, and it reminds me of sea shells. This product also contains blue lagoon water which enhances moisture and soothes skin. Umm so there's a connection with the sea-shell like packaging lol



The first time I use this product, it made my skin dryer and it made the cracks more visible. It  clings on my pores and made little white dots. I really don't like it.
However, some minutes later after I applied the product the BB balm seems to melt on the skin and the color blends naturally. When this occurs, the product really covers the imperfections and fix the unevenness of the skin. Also, it gives me that Korean dewy-face look XD Most importantly, my skin is not oily aka it reduces the oil production

Here's the concealing power! I only applied a little amount of product.
The light made my skin looked paler on the right picture..


 Pros
- Reduces the oil up to 7 hours!
- Brightens the skin without making me looked like a ghost
- Covers the imperfections
- Very natural effect, doesn't make me looked like using bb creams (or foundation)
- Gives that Korean dewy-face look
- Doesn't melts tho I sweat a lot (it's very hot here!)

Cons
- I don't like the plastic material that is used as the product packaging
- The sponge puff seemed to absorb the BB balm and a little hard to use
- The compact is not really comfortable. Idk, I think it's just me...
- Not recommended for dry skin
