Not the best bb cream ive used.
Why??
I apply makeup to my hand and use sponge fingers or fingers to blend.
It comes out of the tube white and colouf adapts to skin masking flaws and imperfections.
But i found it colour adapts to my sponge hand n brush too in some cases becoming too dark before its even on my skin.
My advise apply directly from tube to face.
That solves the problem
However i dont like applying it this way and therefore will not buy this again

I am a crazy BB Cream person and I feel as if I should own every BB cream on the block, I am not sure why, I never purchased this BB cream, until Candice sent me a sample, after trying it out, I went and purchased my own tube of this product. So we will all agree...this isn't the most affordable BB cream, but I've seen more expensive so I decided to purchase it, it retails for R200 at regular price. I purchased shade number 3. The actual BB cream is quite different from any of the other BB Creams I've tried, the colour is an off white colour, and you can see light brown spots which are a little grainy in the mixture, once you blend the BB cream into your skin, you can notice the cream adapt to your skin colour. I'd say the BB Cream gives a good coverage with a nice semi matte finish, it leaves skin feeling fresh and is perfect because summer is here.

I have used this product for a week now and it is easy to apply, but I feel slight oiliness of the skin after applying it. Which is not a biggest problem, since I use translusent powder on top, but would be nice to not have that feeling though. As far as effectiveness goes I can say, that it does offer a light cover only, but matches to my skin perfectly well. So in short, worth a try. I think it could be a little cheeper for what it has to offer.

i purchased this BB cream to use as an every day make up and just to try it out. I needed to even out some dark spots in my complexion and boist my skin's moisture in my dry, and often hot, office environment. This product does exactly what I needed it to do. As a bonus it looks very natural and slightly glowy, is easy to apply, and lasts even after I've left the office.

Those are the pros, here are the cons:

If purchased regular price, this item is far too expensive for what it is. the tube contains less than an entire ounce of product. I purchased this item and likely only repurchase when another sale comes up. Lucky for me and everyone else, TBS frequently has discounts for those who receive their email offers.

The only other thing I noticed is that this product, at least on me, I need a bit more moisture than normal. I attempted to use it under my medium coverage foundation to boist moisture and add a little extra coverage, with the result that I was a bit lighter than usual, almost pale. Since this result was not typical for either product alone, I am left to assume that it happened because I layered the two.
Wow! It covers quite well, lasts for several hours. and no break outs, no creasing. Makes my face look lots better, glowing, not pearly, but glowy. I love it! I put it on over sunblock if I'll be out, and over serums/creams for dry skin, and it's great alone. (
Otherwise, this is a fabulous little BB cream and I foresee happily using it for some time. :)
