    LOVE LOVE this product, I have been using it for a year now and the product still hasn't ended. I use it under my eyes for my dark circles and on any pimples. The thing I love about this product is that it works like magic.. after you apply it, in pictures it seems as if your skin is flawless. 10/10 product!!

    I actually won my Marcelle BB Cream in "Golden Glow" from a contest at Chickadvisor!! Thank you Chickadvisor :)

    I absolutely love it!! Honestly, I would not have even thought of purchasing this product.
    At first glance from the packaging, I thought it was another illuminator that basically worked as a shimmering moisturizer/primer. Not at all.

    This product gives me great coverage to the point where I use it as my foundation (I am a NC32-35 for reference).
    I purchased the Hourglass Immaculate Liquid Powder Foundation from Sephora last month, which is two and a half times the price of this Marcelle BB Cream, and I have not reached for it since I started using this BB Cream.
    On top of that I have barely used concealer with this and I usually use a concealer with regular foundation. I can't say enough great things about this BB Cream.
    If I have one complaint about this product, it is the packaging - specifically the applicator pump. The pump applicator is missing the typical long pipe stuck to it so that it can suck up the product from the end of the tube.
    If you want to see swatches or pictures of coverage, I wrote a blog post on it on my personal blog.

    I love this BB cream from Marcelle. Ive tried a few other brands and Marcelle's is by far the best BB cream.
    It goes on evenly and i like that it has a pump on the top. It has great coverage, and its very light feeling as well.

    I love this BB cream, it hides my acne marks and acne. I also use a concealer to hide more flaws but this is so great for a BB cream. I got this for like $23 at my drugstore. It's been 3 months since i've used this and i still have plenty left.

    I'm sure by now the majority of you have tried a BB cream. I started out a little bit sceptical, but the adventurer inside of me always seems to prevail, leaving my inner banker quite upset a lot of times. However, in this case I was quite impressed with the Marcelle BB Cream.

    I actually purchased it in both the "Light to Medium" & "Medium to Dark" shades. I figured I'd be able to make use of both of them at one point or another, and if not I'd gladly pass it on. I began using the Light to Medium earlier in the summer, and as the summer proceeded, my sun kissed skin began to appear which meant it was time to move on the Medium to Dark.

    Firstly I really like the packaging. It comes in a tube with a pump at the end. I think it will be easy to access pretty much all of the product, in other cases, it's hard to get the last bit of product out of the tube which can be a bit of a rip of.

    I also love the feel of the BB Cream. It's very smooth and velvety, it blends exceptionally well into my skin and my skin feels really soft after application.

    I do want to say that even though the shades are light to medium and medium to dark, you likely couldn't be overly fair skinned or dark skinned to use it. I don't know how well it would work in either extreme really. It's a pretty generic middle skin tone class. Although, it may come in more shades but I'm not entirely sure. These were the only two shades available at my retailer.

    I'd say it has a medium coverage level. If my skin is not in revolt, I'd be able to get away with just the BB cream. However, in more cases than not, I need to use a concealer and set it with powder, especially in the heat of summer. Coverage also lasts pretty much all day, depending on what your doing I suppose, but after a full day of work, my face was still pretty much in-tact.

    Also, I personally still do use a moisturizer underneath the BB cream. I realize it's not required, but my skin can be difficult to deal with and the better moisturized the better for me!
    Overall, I'm really impressed by this product and it will definitely be a repurchased item!

    I picked up a bottle of Marcelle BB cream (light to medium) one day while shopping at Walmart. I had heard many people talking about BB creams and wanted to give one a try. The box claimed 8 benefits in 1 product, so I decided to try the Marcelle product.

    I don't have the box anymore, but I found the following online: "Your age and your skin type don’t matter! This Beauty Balm with self-adjusting pigments, powerful antioxidants, aloe and chamomile does it all for you: (1) Evens out skin tone, (2) Offers immediate and long-term hydrating benefits, (3) Protects from premature aging and environmental stresses, (4) Promotes skin regeneration, (5) Matifies skin and controls shine, (6) Soothes and calms skins, (7) Minimizes the appearance of imperfections and pores, (8) Excellent make-up base provides anti-dull radiant complexion."

    I didn't try the product right away because I already had an open foundation, but I decided to give it a try one day. I used it the very same way I use foundation meaning that I applied a face primer first, and then used my foundation brush to apply the BB cream. While it didn't offer the same coverage as my foundation, I really liked the product. It seemed to absorb quickly, and matched my skin tone nicely. My face didn't feel dry or flaky, nor did it feel oily. I wasn't shiny, but I did have a certain glow. I thought that this would be a great product for the summer since it is so lightweight.

    I did not continue to use as I was trying to finish my open foundation, and subsequently forgot I had it. (Out of sight, out of mind.) Recently I came back from vacation and on my first day back to work I had to pause. My skin tone was slightly darker since I had just spent a week in the Caribbean, and my foundation would surely be too light. I was at a loss on what to do, until I found the bottle of BB cream in my drawer. Since it is for light to medium, and I was certainly more of a medium post-holiday, I decided to give it a try. I was very pleased! Once again it blended nicely and matched my skin tone.

    I continue to use the BB cream every day now, and will probably use it throughout the summer. I will definitely purchase this BB cream again.

    I hope you find this review helpful!

    Marcelle's BB Cream is great, It keeps skin moisturized without leaving it oily, blends with skin very well, you can wear it under makeup, personally if I don't have much time to get ready in the morning, that is the only piece of makeup I make sure to put on.Its a little on the expensive side, but with this product a little bit goes a long way. Would defiantly recommend this product .

    I actually tried this cream because i got a free full sized one free threw facebook. Ever since then i have not stopped using it. I even take it everywhere i go and let all my friends and family try it out. I used it alone as a tinted moisturizer (which saves me time in the morning) and it made me look refreshed and glowing. the smooth texture was not oil or cakey on my skin and it blended in very easily. Its Hypo-allergenic and perfume free which i love because i sometimes tend to break out from creams that have a tint in them. Awesome new product. If you have not tried it go and try it!

    I absolutely LOVE this product!
    I wasn't sure what to expect but I was pleasantly surprised to see how well it evened out my skin tone. It provides moderate coverage for imperfections and now on most days, I totally ditch my foundation! I've had a few friends try it and now they're using it too. It blends into your skin so well. This is such an amazing product and I love it, love it, love it!
