BBIA

BBIA is a Korean brand that specializes in makeup. Its name is printed in capital letters on the cases, tubes and pens you see in the photos. At Ma Petite Coree, the BBIA selection centers on the eyes, lips, cheeks and complexion: eyeliners, a mascara, tints, blushes, eyeshadow palettes, a cushion and a concealer. If you are looking for BBIA makeup, this page gives you a tour of the selection before you open the product pages.

BBIA product names repeat from one product to the next. We group them by name, without claiming that these are ranges defined by the brand. The Last products are the biggest family: the Last Auto Gel Eyeliner Slim, the Last Velvet Tint, the Last Eye Palette, the Last Eye Primer and the Last Contour Stick. The Pia products are the Pia Last Blush and the Pia Nude Slim Eyeliner. The Never Die products are the Never Die Mascara and the Never Die Brush Eyeliner. The Eau products are the Eau Glow Cushion, the Eau Stay Concealer and the L'eau Tint #RibbonEdition. The Ready To Wear products include the Ready To Wear Powder Cheek #DownyCheek, the Ready To Wear Eye Shadow and the Ready To Wear Water Lipstick #CoolNudeEdition.

Other products simply go by their own name, such as the Glow Tint, the Perfect Match Blush, the Oh Powder Pact or the Essential Eye Palette #RibbonEdition.

Start with what you want to work on. For the eyes, choose between a pencil, such as the Pia Nude Slim Eyeliner, and a brush eyeliner, such as the Never Die Brush Eyeliner: look at the tip in the photos. For a line on the brows, there is the Last Auto Gel Eyebrow Pencil. For the lips, compare the bottle of the Glow Tint, the tube of the Lip Oil Essence and the slim format of the Nude Lip Pencil.

For the cheeks, think about the format: a round case, like the Perfect Match Blush, or a clear rectangular case. For the complexion, the Oh Powder Pact is a powder in a darker compact. For color, open the page: several BBIA products, such as the Pia Last Blush, come in several colors, and the photos show swatches. If you hesitate, start with a single neutral color and add another later.

The photos and titles remain your best guide: they show the format, the name of the edition and the visible color. Add one product at a time to your cart and compare it with what you already own.

Each BBIA page shows the product photos, its exact title and its color options when there are any. You can also browse neighboring brands such as ROMAND or CLIO.

The first thing you notice in the photos is the formats. The blushes come in clear or rounded cases, the eyeliners are slim pencils or brush pens, and the eyeshadow palettes have elaborate cases, like the painter's-palette shape of the Last Eye Palette. The colors run from pinks and nudes to browns and blacks. For each product, we only describe what the title and the photos show: shape, case and visible colors.

BBIA also has editions with a name added to the product, such as #RibbonEdition, #RespectEdition, #CoolNudeEdition or #DownyCheek. These words appear in the titles: they help you spot the exact edition you are looking at.

Rather than a ranking, here are a few landmarks to get into the BBIA selection. For the eyes, the Last Auto Gel Eyeliner Slim and the Last Auto Gel Eyeliner are two pencil eyeliners, and the Never Die Mascara completes the look. For the cheeks, the Perfect Match Blush and the Ready To Wear Powder Cheek #DownyCheek are two blushes in different cases. For the lips, the Glow Tint and the Last Velvet Tint are two tints, and the Lip Oil Essence comes in a soft tube with a round tip.

For the complexion, the Eau Glow Cushion is a cushion foundation and the Eau Stay Concealer is a concealer. If you like eyeshadow palettes, look at the Essential Eye Palette #RibbonEdition and the Ready To Wear Eye Palette #RespectEdition.
