Bourjois 8 in 1 BB Cream




BB CREAM

This is one one of my favourite products to use at the moment, as its so warm I don't generally like to wear too much on my face because it just feels like it will melt off so BB Cream is the perfect solution. 

I will start with the packaging....


This photo isn't too clear, I do apologise for that but its late and I wanted to get a post out!

The packaging is very chic, its a great all black compact that is the perfect size to fit into your handbag for a everyday or a night out. 



Once opening you will find a large mirror, a small sponge which I would generally throw away but have kept all this time as I knew this BB Cream would end up on my blog! Also a fairly sized pan of product. 

I have had this product for quite a while now and use it almost everyday, hence hitting the bottom of the pan! I actually recently took it to the UK with me for a few weeks, it was the only base product I took with me. 

The product itself feels very silky and blends very well. For me the coverage is good as long as I use concealer under my eyes. I don't generally suffer with too many spots so I don't really need a heavy coverage, I will say if its a heavy coverage you are looking for then this may not be the base product for you, but on that note not many people use a BB Cream for full coverage!



This is how it looked on my skin. It evened out my skin tone but didn't hide any of my natural imperfections which I very much like. 

The 8 factors of this BB Cream are Perfecting, Smoothing, Targeted Correction, Anti fatigue, Anti-shine, Anti-ageing, Long-lasting hydration and finally SPF 20.

I would agree with all these points accept the long lasting, I can't quite make up my mind on this point, I want to say its not but I also think for a BB Cream the longevity is good. I don't generally take make up out with me on my daily ventures as I just don't ever think 'Oh I need to touch up my make up'. But I did notice it lost more coverage than most of the products I use, does that make sense? Anyway, you will need to take this with you if you are out all day so you can touch it up. 

The shade I am using is 23 Beige Rosé, I believe it comes in four other shades. 

So to recap... I love this BB Cream at the moment as my skin is normal and not dry, I would imagine like quite a few of these products it could go patchy as it wears off, you may also need to think about using a primer. But if you are looking for full coverage this wouldn't be for you. 

Have you tried this BB Cream? 

Stay Beautiful
