I'm just interested in your opinions, I would like to give some a try. :)

If it helps any for face products, I have extremely oily skin, large pores, acne (little blemishes, because of my diet) and tons of rosacea/acne scarring on my cheeks. 😅

Inissfree zero sebum powder is soooo awesome, it blurs pores and mattes down oily shine. Etude house nymph aura volumer is also really great, it can give you a beautiful dewy glow. It looks amazing on cheekbones.

^its actually quite yellow but a soft yellow and quite fair. I've used it and compared to the pink one, it isn't grey at all
If it went grey on you, it's too light. In which case I'd suggest using the CoverFX Custom Cover drops in a shade or two darker to add color without diluting the BB cream so much

Thanks everyone! I was actually interested in Holika Holika's jelly bb cream (it's called Aqua petit something...) but my redness just comes through too much even with my revlon colorstay whipped foundation so I don't know if bb creams will really work, I might end up trying some though since they probably have added benefits and feel lighter. I'm glad they have some korean lines that I don't have to purchase online! I wasn't even aware of that.

The Holika Holika has a nice color and gives a dewy look but it's quite sheer.
I think the orange bb will be better since it's more for oily skin, makes pores look smoothed out and it does have better coverage compared to some of the other BB creams I've used.

I haven't used the whipped revlon colorstay but I've used the liquid, I felt like it faded through the day and made me super oily.

As for like actual Korean skincare I've tried some but I don't know the names of the exact brands I've used I do recall a charcoal mask that I quite liked though

I definitely won't be getting that one then! Thanks for the info. Revlon whipped (I never tried the liquid) is the only foundation that has ever worked for me, and I've tried a lot, but I always go back to this foundation. So far, I'm pretty sure I purchased at least 8 of these jars lol.
