I was on a mission, after a terrible breakout from a foundation I was using, (brandname to be undisclosed, becuase its good, just not for everyday), my skin was in desperate need of repair.
Aside from my normal regime of exfoliating and at home masks (see previous blog for that), I needed one more addition to my makeup bag. Enter Garnier BB cream.
This miracle cream boasts to do 5 thinks at once including acting as a primer and a sunscreen, evening out skintone, color correcting and hiding imperfections/dark spots. I personally noticed that even when the stuff wasnt on my face, my skin was clearer, smoother and brighter! I swear!
I must put a disclaimer here that this cream is definately not a product I would recommend to those with Oily skin types, as it can be kind of greasy itslef. I have combination skin, so it works fine for me, but if you want your makeup to have that matte look, this is not the product for you. Think more along the lines of obtaining a Jennifer Lopez-esq glow, with more of a dewy finish. You can set your BB cream with a light powder, Im using Mineralize Skin Finish by MAC to finish off my look, but you can choose any powder you like, or wear it on its own!
Have it on actually right now. I like the product. Feels good and looks good on my skin. Not oily. Works great.
My daughter uses this product but I of course do the purchasing, she has oily skin with the tendency to dry out from foundation. This BB cream seems to fit the bill for her, we are on our second purchase of it and it is still effective.
I can tell this is an amazing product because it has been reviewed constantly as one of the best drugstore bb cream but i wouldn't know because the bb cream does not come in my color. It would be nice if more skin tones were added.
The coverage is medium and its staying power is average. The only reason I use it is because , I have dry skin and its the only thing that seems to work for me during winters.
I love this because it's so light feeling, but it's not the right coverage for combination skin like it's supposed to be, I do recommend it because I have seen it work really great on some people but not for me.
