I've always wanted to achieve glass skin but that is quite hard to execute when you have skin texture and blemish that needs covering up. I've tried and tested so many other BB creams (watch my Best BB Cream Battle video) in the past but haven't really found a good BB cream for getting glass skin until I've tried CL4 Max Hyaluronic Stem Cell BB Cream a few weeks ago.
CL4 Max Hyaluronic Stem Cell BB Cream Review - Is This the Best BB Cream to Achieve Glass Skin?
What is Glass Skin?
From my understanding, glass skin is a kbeauty trend wherein the skin is made smooth and hydrated to the point that it reflects lights just like glass. This is in line with the NorthEast Asian beauty ideal of having clear and smooth, shining skin.
From what I've seen online regarding what is glass skin, it is achieved by evening out the skin, correcting discolorations, smoothening and polishing the surface so I know that just one product won't be enough to achieve glass skin. Although I've found good products for moisturizing the skin like the BRTC Perfect Calming Gel and use peeling gels to exfoliate my skin, I haven't really found a good BB cream that will give me enough coverage while supplying hydration and comes with a skin-like finish until a few weeks ago with the CL4 Max Hyaluronic Stem Cell BB Cream.
What is CL4 Max Hyaluronic Stem Cell BB Cream?
CL4 Max Hyaluronic Stem Cell BB Cream is a BB cream that was made with the help of 11 different individual researches to develop a BB cream that packs in moisture, sun protection, and coverage for the skin. It only comes in 1 shade which is light beige.
This product retails for $45 per 35 grams tube. You can buy CL4 Max Hyaluronic Stem Cell BB Cream HERE.
CLAIMS:
- anti-wrinkle
- skin brightening
- sun protection
- moisturized skin
- even skin
Note that the CL4 Max Hyaluronic Stem Cell BB Cream ingredients do contain paraben but it is in the last part of the list so the amount is very small.
I can't translate the Korean writings on the box so I just took photos in case some of you are looking for product information in Hangul.
I like the tube packaging it came with. Tube packaging means I can cut the tube later and use any remaining product. The pump keeps everything hygienic too.
You only need a small amount when applying the CL4 Max Hyaluronic Stem Cell BB Cream. A small pea size amount can cover the whole face. You can apply more but it will only look thick so it is best to apply a little and just adjust if needed.
I applied the product thickly above so you can see the coverage. In the photos below, I applied CL4 Max Hyaluronic Stem Cell BB Cream sparingly so you can see that you can achieve glass skin better if you use a small amount on top of your freshly prepared skin.
I think that the hyaluronic acid in the ingredients does a great job of attracting and keeping moisture. As you can see in the photo and video below, my skin looked a lot fresher, even, and moisturized after I applied CL4 Max Hyaluronic Stem Cell BB Cream.

CL4 Max Hyaluronic Stem Cell BB Cream Review Summary
I think that the CL4 Max Hyaluronic Stem Cell BB Cream is a great contender for BB creams that can help you achieve glass skin. It certainly is my favorite now when I want to use minimal makeup. The other products that can do the same for me are expensive CC creams which you need to use more because they can't cover blemishes well. With this BB cream, a little goes a long way plus the product works great for giving me moisturized skin without oiliness.
For the record, I have acne-prone sensitive skin with dry patches, areas of dehydration, and oiliness. When I want better coverage, I layer this BB cream with a powder foundation to get a more western makeup finish. This can also act as a primer and color corrector for those with fair skin so I am truly impressed. Lasting power is about half a day so not bad.
Other claims says improved wrinkle and skin brightening but I think it will take a few weeks of continued use to see that. For now, I am just happy with the moisture this gives plus oil prevention while still giving me good coverage for blemishes. When I want a super glass skin effect, I also use this with the CL4 Max Hyaluronic Propolis Ampoule. I will review that one in the coming weeks too.
I give CL4 Max Hyaluronic Stem Cell BB Cream a 5/5 rating (which means it is something worth repurchasing)
