Holika Holika Aqua Petit Jelly BB Cream Review

One of my favorite youtuber is TheBeautyBreakdown loved this and then the next day, I saw Anne Clutz's video of her reviewing this BB cream.  So I bought one and tried it myself.


Pudding
Packaging 
Isn't is just the cutest bottle ever?! It's a frosted glass with jelly like shape.



It has a plastic blue polka dot cap

There's a spatula attached to the cap for scooping out the product.
The box also comes with a white dense sponge.
I actually didn't like this sponge, because it's too big for me.
Smell 
Clean Floral Scent
Consistency Pudding

Coverage Medium to Full.  It was able to cover my problem areas.


Application 
I tried applying this with the given sponge.  I got difficulty in applying with the sponge provided since I find it too big for my face and since it's very dense, it's a little hard to apply in angled surfaces.
I then tried using Japonesque Retractable BB cream brush and it went all over the place, it settled on dry patches and it looked streaky.  So definitely the sponge looked way better than the brush.
I tried using cushion puff and it looked the best and I don't have difficulty in applying the angled parts of my face

The feeling of it when it touches your skin is very lightweight and smooth almost with a velvety feeling.  Actually it's more lightweight than the Laneige BB Cushion.  The scent disappears upon application.

For the longevity...
It lasted in this hot, humid, Philippine weather for around 12 hours.  Of course it's not perfect by 12 hours, but it's not that noticeable that some of it faded already.  
Although I noticed that at the side of my nose, it caked up/dissolved, but it's not that noticeable when seen from afar only when you look really closely.

After 12 hours, my problem areas started to peek through already.
Duration of use1-2 days
PriceP542 from Carousel: seoulsampleshop
Pros 
ultra lightweight
velvety finish
relatively long lasting
Cons 
cakes up by the end of the day
spatula is flat, wish it's like a spoon so can get the product more easily
Bottle a little bulky - but maybe that's just me since I'm so used to BB cushion as my base
Buy again?
Yes!
Recommend?Definitely!
