BRTC Week 1-2 Evaluation

Hey!


Yes I know, another v late post... but having major issues to deal with atm. I think Im going through a mid life crisis, but excluding the fact that I'm not that old yet... *sigh* You know the saying, "life is like a box of chocolate" --> I think im getting all the crappy chocolates atm. =P ohh well.. lol.

Anyway... back to the topic.....

Umm.. I've been applying BRTC Perfect Protect bb cream EVERYDAY! And I mean, everyday. Even on days where Im not going out and just bumming at home, I'd still put BRTC on. I figured, I should use it everyday, so at least when reviewing BRTC and other bb creams I'd know that I've been applying them consistently for the same amount of time.

So far, its been going well. No adverse reactions (ie. No major break outs) yet, so Im happy! As I described in the past post, blending BRTC out on my face can be difficult... but apart from that, its been fine. Sometimes, I feel like my face is really cakey tho.. ie. my face looks a lot whiter compared to that of my neck.


WEEK 1:
After using BRTC for a week, I didn't notice any differences or changes... I do have photos, but I really don't see anything... so i don't see any point in posting them. Tho, i think my face already looks kind of lighter.


WEEK 2:
At around the 2nd week of usage, I did notice that my face seemed whiter and it kind of felt smoother. My skin tone also seemed to have evened out a bit. I still do get pimples tho... but since using BRTC, the types of pimples I get aren't those painful red big whiteheads or anything ... Prior to using BRTC, I have been getting blemishes on my face... so I can't really say whether BRTC had an effect in that area....?

My younger sister also noticed that my face looked smoother... - so that shows I wasn't imagining things.. hahha

I still don't notice any drastic changes, particularly in the side views.. when comparing the before and after pics... but Im going to post them anyway...


NOTE, regarding the photos: 
Ummm... firstly, when taking these weekly aftershots, Ive tried to take them at the same time of the day so that the lighting is similar.. so an easier comparison can be made between the photos. However, it didn't always turn out the way I wanted...

SO, before you look at and compare these photos... guys.. you gotta keep in mind that yeah... it may look like my face is a LOT lighter... but it may not necessarily be the case. I suggest, you should first compare the colour of my neck. COZ I haven't applied bb cream to that area, so that should be the same tone.



WEEK 2 - BRTC: BEFORE AND AFTER PHOTOS
One thing that I've noticed is that, the left side of my face seem to attract more pimples and is more problematic that my right side. Weird yeh? kekeke

But anyway, here they are....


It looks as though BRTC has helped to even out, particularly my left cheek region a bit. Don't see much difference in terms of the blemish scars on my forehead. You can actually see more pimples developing between my eyebrows. Though, BRTC seems to have helped get rid of the 2 pimples/red marks on my chin.

What do you guys think? I reckon overall, my face looks a bit better. =P

PS. the redish mark you see on the right side of my face, near my nose is there because I had a pimple there that I ended up picking... =P

*It’s probably better to click on these pics to see a larger, more detailed view. O/w you wont be able to see the slight differences at all*

Ohhh, btw, in regards to these photos, I haven't applied any moisturiser or anything to my face when they were taken. So it's entirely just me, my bare face.
