Hello ALL! J Sorry it has been so long since my last update!
So I just felt like the new fad in BB creams deserved its own update! Now some of you have probably seen the sudden trend with BB creams being sold at drug stores and sephoras – they are just about everywhere right now! Or maybe you are just now hearing about it. Either way I am here to give you the low down!
What is a BB cream?!?! Well it’s a super amped up tinted moisturizer! It’s a hybrid formula that tackles multiple skin care concerns in one product. Here are some of the many benefits of a BB cream:
· Skin perfector
· Most all have an SPF
· Helps with blotchiness and discoloration in the skin
· Minimizes pores
· Evens skin tone
· Hydrates
· Enhances and Brightens
· Some are dermatologist tested and recommended
· Tinted for light coverage
· Anti-aging
MOST makeup and skincare lines are coming out with a BB cream, I have tried a ton and have been actively using them for the last 3 months and I have tried some of the most expensive to the cheapest of cheap …the ones I have tried are:
*Smash Box Camara ready BB cream SPF 35 $39.99 at Sephora
*Boscia BB cream SPF 27 $38.99 at Sephora
*Garnier skin renew miracle skin perfector BB cream SPF 15 $11.99 at Target
*Maybelline BB cream SPF 30 $8.49 at Target
The one I would recommend: Garnier Skin Renew Miracle Skin Perfector BB Cream!
It comes in 2 shades and both can blend to any skin tone. You cant beat the price, the smell is nice and I have seen the best results with it. I love using it under my makeup or when I don’t feel like putting any make up on at all. Its great! I have more than half of it left and have had it for 3 months so it goes a really long way! My ONLY complaint about this product is the SPF is only a 15 and I would love Garnier come out with a SPF 30. Some reviewers felt it was too greasy which I never have a problem and I have semi- oily skin. Now if you have extremely oily skin I would recommend going with the Maybelline BB cream as its completely oil free.
Thanks for stopping by!
