Maybelline Dream Pure BB Cream

This BB cream does everything it says it does, and is especially great for evening my skin tone. I do wish it was a higher SPF for summer, however.

This one I have not used in a few years. But I have purchased it again and I am pleased to say that it is just as good now as it was back then. I really struggle to find BB creams or foundations that don't look cakey or make me break out. This one was great.

I would love to try the other one in the pink tube and may do so once this has run out.

I love the Maybelline bb cream for; no-makeup makeup days, or when I want to let my skin breathe without heavy foundation. I have tried out a couple of other bb creams and this is my favourite. It's also super affordable! When I began using it years ago - when I was 17. I applied it with my fingers, which worked fine. These days I use a beauty blender. A small layer applies evenly, smoothing pores and hiding redness and scarring. It does not exaggerate texture, and feels creamy and light. Other bb creams I've tried feel thick and greasy.

You can set it with powder, however I usually leave it bare to allow my skin to breathe. It dries down to a natural-semi matte finish. It also contains salicylic acid, to treat and reduce breakouts, while being worn. Therefore it is good for oily or young skin types. I have combination skin. If you have mature or dry skin, the other bb cream in the pink bottle and satin finish may be a better fit for you.

I really like what an even coverage this BB cream achieves, great for everyday wear. I was using only foundations before I sampled this BB cream. The formula is just right and a little goes a long wear, it doesn't create any shine and is easily washed off at the end of the day. I found that I never suffered any breakouts while I was using this BB cream but then not sure if it was because of this or just my skincare routine/hormones at the time. Only reason I don't use it now is that I am using a NZ natural product, but I do have a tube of this in my drawer if I run out of my normal brand

Best bb cream I have tried yet! I have extremely oily skin so that is why I decided to purchase this. Out of all the bb creams I have tried this has kept me matte for the longest, probably around 2-3 hours. It has brilliant coverage for a bb cream, I don't even need concealer sometimes. I would definitely repurchase!

I used the BB cream in the shade light. The tone was a perfect match for me and suitable for everyday use. Light to medium coverage and it's blendable and lets your skin breathe! I set it with a translucent powder but I'm sure it would last most of the day without touch ups or powder! I stopped using this product simply because I started an acne treatment an didn't want to affect it with the salicylic acid in this product, but I have bought the same BB cream for non oily skin (doesn't contain salicylic acid) so I can continue using the product (sort of haha)

Light to medium coverage. I use this with my expert brush from Real Techniques and it blends like a dream. Really lightweight. Helps to fight my acne and stays on all day with a primer on. Can get quite oily but nothing a powder won't fix!

I've yet to find a BB cream that is both good for combination skin, and also works with my fair skin tone. I bought it from Farmers on sale, and have been so impressed. I put it on in the mornings a couple of minutes after my moisturiser, and a couple of minutes before my foundation, and it definitely works to minimize my redness, which was my main concern. My makeup also stays on all day, even if it only a bit of powder, and I only need to apply powder 8 hours after I put it on.

I picked up a couple of sample sachets of these when they were first released about a year ago, and I fell in love. I have intensely oily skin, but these worked wonderfully to combat the oil, and to even out my skin tone.

I love BB Cream, and I love the fact that I can wear this everyday without having to worry about it breaking me out. It also gives off a very natural look, as the coverage isn't intense, but it's enough for me to feel confident enough to leave the house without wearing foundation - super nice for those lazy bb cream and mascara days.

Since then i've gone through about 3 tubes of the light stuff, and i'm about 2/3 through a medium one, i find that mixing in a little bit of the medium one helps for when i want to contour a little bit, plus it's good for summer when i get a teeny bit of a tan.

This is my favourite westernized BB Cream for acne prone skin! I find the colour to be perfect for my super pale skin and it isn't too pink or orange. I feel like it helps with my breakouts and it stays put for at least 6 hours. If you have oily, acne prone skin i'd really recommend giving this a go.
