For all those beauties on a budget who don't want to skimp on quality, the Essence BB cream is your solution. This BB cream lives up to its expectations to even skin tone, hide imperfections and keep skin moisturised. This BB cream comes in a 30ml tube in a cream and flesh colour packaging with the pretty pink Essence logo.
I did find the cream to be slightly runny upon squeezing it out of the tube, but aside for that it goes on smoothly and feels incredibly lightweight on the skin. It gives excellent coverage too! For the small cost of R54.95 for a BB cream, this product is definitely worth a purchase and see for yourself!

Was actually quite please with this product, it was on par with the Garnier bb cream as far as results are concerned. Provided good coverage and stayed on all day.

I was a bit sceptical at first as i have very sensitive skin and would normally spend alot more on products to ensure it's quality, but this product is an absolutely amazing buy, at a very affordable price. I chose the universal shade,it glided onto my skin perfectly and gave it a perfect dewy finish. I will for sure be purchasing these amazing bb creams forever!

Finally, a BB cream that matches my skin tone almost 100%! I don't have to blend out any lines near my jaw line to avoid the dreaded "mask" look. This really made my girl problems better and that's all I really need.
The moisturising properties were really enjoyable. My skin did not feel dry or tight, in fact it gave my skin a slight glow. This is fantastic to liven up dull winter skin but might be a problem on hot summer days. Luckily I don't need to worry about that now and it works just fine!
I am also loving the SPF 30 in each tube of Essence All-in-one BB bream. Don't forget that even though it's cold, the sun can damage your skin and give you horrible dark sun spots. I honestly don't think I would buy a BB cream if it didn't have an SPF. *High-five to Essence*
More awesome news? This is the cheapest BB cream you'll find on the shelves right now. Retail price is only R54.95 for a 30ml tube. Yes please!
One major downer is that it smells terrible. The Essence All-in-one BB cream is oil and perfume free which is fantastic for your skin but can be rather grotesque once it's applied and it's stuck to your nostril area. This scent (or lack thereof) does fade within like 30min but might be too much for some ladies to initially overcome.
This is a great BB cream because the quality you get for the amount that you pay, is totally worth it.

This is the new multi-talent for your skin. The formula is light and creamy in texture with no scent, PERFECT for sensitive skin.
The balm comes in 3 shades, which doesn’t accommodate the diverse range of skin tones South Africans represent. Luckily the medium(03) shade suited me perfectly and left my skin looking and feeling amazing. The balm blends easily whilst hydrating and moisturizing your skin. It hides small imperfections, ensures a radiant glow and a natural looking finish.
This cream cares for skin, all while allowing it to breathe. It is oil and perfume free, ensuring care and the gentlest of approach to great looking skin. It also contains an SPF of 30, this is great as maximum protection against the sun provides protection. This is also great if youre an outdoor person who wants to look good whilst breaking a sweat.
When it comes to the packaging, I love that Essence has stuck true to their young, youthful teenage look. The tube is a peachy tan colour with vibrant pink writing.
In the end, I love this product and have added it to my now growing BB Cream collection. Its gentle and delicate on skin all while hydrating and protecting. Definitely one to try, and at R54.95 it’s a cheap investment to vibrant covered skin.

Essence BB Cream
Yes ladies it's true, South Africa's most affordable beauty brand has brought their own BB Cream to grace South African skin. It's a force of habit to stare at the Essence make up stand, even if I don't really need anything, however this time I didn't just purchase one product, I purchased three exciting new products!
The first is definitely the BB Cream of course. How could I say no? The packaging was brilliant white top which blends into a cream/beige colour with the words "BB" in hot pink and all other details in small writing but with that attractive and eye catching hot pink.
The BB Cream is available in the following shades:
01 Universal
02 Natural
03 Medium
Super excited to try it out, I grabbed the tester and squirted some of the BB cream in the shade medium on my hand. The BB was cool on skin, and blended so effortlessly into my skin, I was so impressed. I couldn't see any caking or any lines, just silky smooth cool skin with a lovely glow to it. I was so excited I had to purchase the BB Cream. The BB Cream is also SPF 30 which means skin will be protected during those hot summer days.
I used the BB Cream for almost a week now and the results are absolutely amazing. The BB Cream isn't dry and contains a lot of moisture in it. The BB Cream blends effortlessly and gives skin a flawless dewy look which is what everyone wants. The BB Cream hides imperfections and flaws leaving you looking beautiful and amazing all day long, without the need of powder! So there's no oily look at all!

The only problem would be that medium is the darkest colour available.
I would really recommend you give this product a try because it's the most affordable BB Cream available - Retails at R58. It leaves skin velvety smooth and beautifully dewy. It's a MUST for winter because the product has enough of moisture and doesn't leave skin dry at all.
