I love Loreal BB Cream! It feels like moisurizer with a creamy, smooth finish. It's very light so it doesn't give the coverage a foundation would, but it smooths out my skin and covers most of my imperfections. I usually use a light powder over-top just to make sure it holds through-out the day and to give that extra coverage. I also love the fact this BB cream has the added vitamins in it, it was what made me buy it and I'm so glad I did!
The coverage of this BB Cream is light. It actually looks like nothing is going on at all (I guess it matches that well) but it does help to cover minor skin problems. I have some acne marks and it does a decent job at covering some and others it reduces the appearance of, not completely however. It does cover enough to the point where I feel pretty comfortable and don't worry about foundation too much. I really love wearing this with concealer on my lazy days when I want to cover up without the whole routine. It looks natural and works great.
This BB Cream has a bit of a "grainy" texture to it. It comes out white and contains encapsulated pigments that start to 'burst' as you rub it in. The lotion part of this BB Cream claims to contain antioxidants vitamins C and E.
Overall, I've really been enjoying this, it's definitely done a better job than my Maybelline BB Cream. I feel like I have noticed an improvement in my skin since I've been wearing it, for a while I was wearing it almost everyday. I don't feel like it gives me a "flawless" look by any means, it covers up minor problems very well though and it helps to conceal redness a bit. I've been using this as my primer and I don't notice a huge difference, not that I've really been looking for one, but I've never been unsatisfied with the results. I haven't gotten oily at all, even without powder. (using MUFE Mat Velvet Foundation) I especially like that I hardly have to use any at all.
I like to wear the bb cream some days instead of wearing alot of make up. it feels nice on your skin, but i find to get the same result as the other brands of bb cream you have to use alot more of it.
I first received a sample of this in a magazine, used it once and had to have it! It is a little costly for the small size bottle it comes in but it does wonders to my face! I don't feel like I have any make up on what so ever yet my skin glows and looks great. I love thus product and will continue to use it.
This new BB cream craze is worth a try for sure! I got a free sample of L'Oreal's BB cream in a magazine (I think Cosmo) and decided to try it, even though it was the wrong shade for my skintone - I'm very fair and the free sample was a touch darker in Light. Even so, I found that the cream did just what i said it would - it smoothed and moisturized while lightly covering any small flaws on my face. I think I could almost forget about putting on foundation, which I normally use daily, with this stuff! Plan to buy a full-sized tube in my shade very soon.
Being a `great` consumer of make-up products God knows how many tubes, bottles of concealers or foundations I had. I said `I had` because right after trying this I literally threw away almost all the rest I had. After cleaning my face, I put a nice moisturizer on with high SPF and then apply this. Its unbelievable! This is the first product that does not look like a mask on my face. It matches my skin tone perfectly and gives an incredible even skin tone. I gave quality four stars cause for me the only down side of this product is it sometimes causes acne. I think it is not for acne prone skin. However, I love the even tone I get after this amazing product and I tell myself `well, rose is beautiful but has thorns`. I hope in the near future Loreal comes with the same product that is sensitive skin friendly. Give it a try, you`ll love it!
