It was rather disturbing when I had my first acquaintance with L'egere White Multi BB Cream. Like most BB Creams in the market, it comes in only one shade. And, this shade looks way too dark for my skin tone... the orange undertones... =.=

I was literally amazed when I start spreading the Multi White on my skin. The dark orangey shade instantly transforms into a medium beige shade with pink undertones. It's close to my skin color albeit a tad lighter. Leaves a slight sheen on the skin.

It has a light creamy consistency which feels a lil' sticky initially. I find it easy to blend, using fingers (as usual).

L'egere Water Drop Shiny Pearl has a light liquidy texture. It feels more lightweight as compared to Multi White. The shade is beige with slight grey undertones, a lil' darker than my skin tone.

I like how it goes on very smoothly on the skin, with a hint of cooling sensation upon application. Like Kameria Water Drop Super Moisturethere are water droplets formed when spreaded on the skin. That leaves a moisturized feel on my skin. When blended out, the 3D pearl shining particles illuminates the skin well without looking too shimmery. It reminds me of Skin79 Crystal Pearl BB Cream, with slightly better coverage. Like Skin79 Crystal Pearl BB Cream, it is excellent as a highlighter to complement my regular makeup.

They have the same faint citrusy scent, I like!

Both provide sheer to medium coverage, with White Multi being slightly better. They do not conceal imperfections like dark circles completely, hence the need for a separate concealer. Overall, they do help even out my skin tone pretty well -- giving a semi dewy finish. And, I like that they feel lightweight on the skin especially Water Drop Shiny Pearl.

In terms of oil-control, I would say Water Drop Shiny Pearl does a better job. For Multi White, I do see the need of blotting with tissue after just 2 hours or so. Nevertheless, a good mattifying powder will do the job of keeping the oilies at bay -- think Maybelline Dream Matte Powder. Ahh... I can never stop raving about this awesome possum HG product!

All in all, I enjoy using these L'egere BB Creams especially on days when I don't feel like piling on too much makeup. They are like my second skin, but definitely much-much better.

Okay, that's all. Hope the reviews help (:
