Maybelline BB cream

I've actually been using this product for about year and while I do like it (and keep buying it), I'm not entirely convinced of all the claims of how fantastic BB Cream is. This is the only BB cream I've tried, but I don't feel that it's all it's cracked up to be - they claim this product mattifies but for someone like me who has oily skin it really doesn't do a whole lot. Good points are the SPF, the shades (not that there's much choice, but I feel they're quite adaptable for different skin tones), and that this product can totally work for any event - I have often worn just this BB cream when going out and looks just as good as a proper 'foundation'. By adding a little powder on top it does look really good. I think it's a really great option for an everyday look - nice and easy for work and gives the right amount of coverage.

Tips: Don't buy it off the internet unless your sure its the same version/made in the same country as the NZ version - I bought one off Trademe, same name & colour etc but it's completely different and very orangey.

Not my fave.

I was recently given a tube of this in medium, so thought I'd give it a go (I regularly use Chichi's BB cream so this isn't something I would purchase on my own).

The first thing I noticed is that the tube is tiny! I definitely would only buy this if it was on sale, I don't think it's better than any of the better value BB creams on the market. The packaging is ok, nothing special.

The product itself is just a standard liquid BB cream formula. It does have a really faint smell to it that's not awesome, but isn't too noticeable. I found that it does feel quite nice on your skin when you apply it, it's not heavy and blends in easily. The texture looks very natural which is good. I did need to use quite a bit to do my full face, so I don't know how long such a tiny tube would last.

Appearance wise, it did give pretty decent coverage. Unlike my other BB cream it isn't shiny so you could probably get away with wearing it without any powder, although I feel with powder on top you would get very good coverage with this product. The trade off is that it is only SPF 15, I would want something with higher SPF on my face if I was going to be in the sun all day. It does have a reasonably natural matte finish to it, although the colour almost looks muddy on some parts of my face. I think the lighter shade would suit me better, although I still feel that the colour should look more even than it does.

Overall, it looks fine and would be ok as a daily BB cream where you don't have time to fuss with primers and powders in the morning. I definitely do think there are better BB creams out there though.

Who needs foundation with this

wow I was so surprised how good this BB cream was. I am fair skinned so I used the light one and I didn't even need to wear concealer, foundation or powder which was awesome for my pocket. I love how it improved blemishes and I noticed I didn't have as many outbreaks from using this compared to others. I also luv the fact that it's a great price so it's very affordable.

Maybelline BB Cream

This product is my favorite BB cream that I have used so far (and I have used a lot). It has enough coverage that it hides or down tones my blemishes yet it blends nicely enough that it is not caked. my face feels moisturized and i enjoy wearing it. need to top up my stock!!

Maybelline Dream Pure BB Cream

Packaging is good. Easy to use. Has a liquidy, runny texture, I wouldn't say it's a 'cream'. Gives enough coverage for my skin. The shades for this product I feel needs to be improved. For the price you pay it's a fair deal. It's a good go to product when you don't feel like wearing heavy make up

Okay cream, poor colour selection

This is a pretty average BB cream. I choose this as it contains SPF and salicylic acid, which is good for problem skin. For reference my skin is not acne prone but can get oily and I thought this would provide a better finish compared to the Dream Fresh BB.

It only comes in two colours, which is frustrating. I am in the lighter shade, but I have olivey skin and usually the middle shade in foundation ranges, so it would not be suitable for a lot of paler people.

It applies easily and does give some coverage, with a mattifying finish which I prefer. Good for beginners or those who need something that they can get quickly - it is widely stocked at Farmers, KMart, The Warehouse and pharmacies.

Tips: This is a good one to try if you want something easily accesible, but there are better options out there.

Underwhelming

To begin with i liked this product, it did an OK job. But since finding much better BB creams this one does not compare at all. I found I got very oily throughout the day and didn't offer very much coverage. My skin is constantly red so I need quite a bit of colour correcting and coverage to combat this.

Nice Finish

I enjoy using this - I got the medium colour first - turns out it's too dark for me. I then got the light - it's better but not great. The best colour finish I get is 2 parts light to 1 part medium, mix it together & buff it in really well.

I like the finish I get from it, love that it mattifies. I love that it has salicylic acid in it, I'm having a dreadful time with my chin at the moment - breakout after breakout. It's great for the days when you don't want a lot of coverage - which is most days for me if I'm being honest. The one drawback is the colour & on days when I'm running late, I'm not going to go for this because it's a bit more work to get my colour right.

Maybelline Dream Pure BB Cream

This BB cream works well for me, I use it quite often for the days where I don't want to do a full on makeup day. Quick and easy to apply, blurs out any little imperfections and gives you a smooth looking finish. I like that it is light and doesn't have a cake effect

Maybelline Dream Pure Tinted Moisturiser

I recently received this from a fellow Beauty Reviewer who found the shade light was too light for her.

The packaging for this is very simple. But it works so I don't have problem with that. The product itself is quite runny and light. But I guess that has something to do with how light the coverage of the product is. It claims to have eight skin benefits. I don't think that it actually does any of that, well at least I haven't found any of those skin benefits.

I use this product for my weekend no-makeup makeup look base. I find that it is easiest to smooth on with your fingers to get a more even base. I have tried it with a brush and with a sponge and I found because of the liquidy product that they sucked up a lot of the product rather then put it on my face.

The coverage isn't amazing but I didn't expect it to be. I find it gives a nice matte finish to smooth out my skin tone but doesn't cover any of my pimples or cover my redness amazingly. After using this I usually put on a coloured powder which provides more coverage over my redness, and a concealer for my pimples. I find that this lasts quite well as well.

Tips: I agree with others that this is a great product for beginners, don't get makeup beginners hooked on high coverage products when they don't need it!
