Skinfood BB Cream comparison, cleansing water

Skinfood Mushroom BB cream and Green Gingko BB cream

I got both quite some time ago, so they've lasted me for quite a while. I got the Gingko one in no.1 and the Mushroom one in no.2 LOL (I got the mushroom one because it was pretty cheap, otherwise I would've gotten no.1 in colour)

The Mushroom has a scent of grass(?) and has SPF20 PA+ and claims to whiten and have anti-aging properties. The Green Gingko one smells like soap to me, but in a pleasant way, and it apparently helps correct skintone.

^The one on top is the mushroom one and the one on the bottom is the gingko one.
They don't seem too different until you spread them. The mushroom looked like it wasnt there, because it matched my skin and blended in and I wasn't sure if I even blended in any at all. The Gingko one has a much paler cast on my face before I blend it in, but when I do, It looks about the same as the mushroom, just a bit fairer.

They both look similiar, but the Mushroom one has a more grainy dry feel after several hours of wear, especially on the nose. And both oxidize.

Skinfood Black Sugar Cleansing Water

Im not a big fan of cleansing water, since they sting my eye when I try to remove the makeup off my eye. But I gave this one a try.

This one actually works really well! Usually water based cleansers have alcohol in them or something like that, but I cant detect any smell of alcohol in this, it smell JUST LIKE the skinfood black sugar scrub. It's a bit sticky but it REALLY does remove makeup, even mascaras (just not japanese waterproof ones) and it made my face initially sticky, but soft afterwards. I love this as well lol. And the best part is, it DOESNT sting my eyes at all, so it's completely safe to use as a eye makeup remover, well to me it is.
