This is the first of probably many reviews for products, I bought in London.
I only tried the Garnier BB cream once, and hated it!
The colour was so wrong, it irritated my skin and didn't do anything good!
Luckily I hadn't bought it myself, and as I had absolutely nothing good to say about it, I decided not to tell you about it.
In Denmark Garnier BB cream is the only one available on the high street.
But on my trip to London, I saw the Maybeline Dream Fresh BB cream.
I have heard a lot of good things about this one, and as Boots had a 3 for 2 offer on Maybeline, I thought - Why not?
I used it while in London, as it was very hot, and have now also used for the last few days at home, and this is my thoughts
Colours and texture:
Where Garnier only offers two different shades, Maybeline has four.
Of cause I went for the lightest one.
It's not a perfect match, but I feel that it blends very nicely with my skin tone.
It's very light and very much like a cream.
How to apply?:
I usually apply foundation with a brush, but for some reason, I thought that it would be better to use my fingers with this one.
However I was wrong, today I used a brush and the result is so much better.
I used the Sephora Mineral brush.
The result:
As I've said before, a picture tells more than a thousand words - so here we go.
Before:
After:
Maybeline Dream Fresh BB Cream in Light applied with Sephora Mineral brush. I also have a little concealer on my spots and where I had extra redness. |
My conclusion:
I actually really like it.
However it's probably mostly a summer product, because I will be even lighter in a few weeks and I like a more solid coverage in the winter.
But I would recommend it, if you are on the hunt for a BB cream with a great shade selection and a very good result :-)
