I used this on a daily basis for most of summer - I love that it provided a little bit of coverage on days I didn't want to wear make-up. It was easy to just chuck on as I was running out the door - no fuss, light, fresh and not much could go wrong (like foundation lines etc). I have since moved on to creams like this, just ones that provide a bit more coverage and SPF 30. But it is a good product to start with.

Reviews
The biggest problem I had with this is that it was too runny, and it went on the skin quite sheer. I didn't notice much difference at all to my complexion after I applied it. It definitely does not do what it claims to do. Doesn't really even out the skin tone or provide much coverage. The watery consistency put me off using it again. Also, the shade range is very very limited. Disappointing!
Tips: I guess the coverage is buildable but that would mean using a lot more product to get the desired effect. If you want more coverage, you must top off with a powder to give you that extra boost.
This was my first ever voyage into the world of BB creams it left my skin with a soft veil of glitter that kind of made my face look sweaty, I guess it was trying to achieve the dewy sheer look, I'm more of a matte finish girl. the addition of translucent powder helped but melted away during the day.
The packaging is cute in an easy to use tube which means you should get every last drop out of it, and cost wise its very reasonable, however as I stated I prefer a matte finish so I wouldn't purchase again due to that, but would recommend to others
This is a great BB cream. The texture is creamy and is easy to smooth over the face with your fingers. It instantly brightens and evens out my skin tone, covering redness and minor pimples well. For other imperfections, such as big pimples, concealer is needed to fully cover them. The coverage is natural and light, and surprisingly lasts the whole day without fading. I am very fair with a cool undertone so I used the 'fair' colour. It is ever-so slightly too dark for me... but it warms up my skin and looks very natural, so it's not a problem.
Tips: It naturally has a slight dewy finish, so for a more matte finish put on a finishing powder. Great as a base and primer for a full coverage foundation look.
Works well covers light blemishes. more of a tinted moisture that evens out skin tone. i love it......
Tips: wear concealer for dark blemishes or layer bb creams
Now don't get me wrong, I love Maybelline and I am a religious user of many of their products but the Dream Fresh BB Cream did not tick all the boxes for me and I wouldn't repurchase. I am more of a full coverage kinda gal, and this just does not give very good coverage at all, also it the undertones are very pink and I am a golden/green undertone so this just didn't hit the spot for me. I used it as a base for my foundation (I am a student so cannot afford to be wasteful) but wouldn't use it as a base that could be set with powder because it's far too sheer.
Tips: Ok under foundation if you are pink toned, otherwise the Garnier BB Cream for Oily Skin (annnnyone can use this, the formula is so matte and delicious) works a treat as an alternative BB cream for roughly the same price!
I was disappointed because the coverage was pretty much non-existant. Also it's imppossible to pick the right shade if there is no tester becuase the guide on the packaging is way, way off.
If you like the nude look then maybe this is for you but don't expect it to cover anything or even out skin tone. It was a good moisturiser I guess but that's about it.
Tips: Because the first colour I picked was wrong (too dark), I sometimes put it on underneath my powder if I have tan on the rest of my body.
This was the first bb cream I tried, I got it on special for cheaper than some at the supermarkets,Offered one of the best coverage's of the bbs Ive tried. My skin type is normal but Im prone to break outs at the moment I found while using this daily my skin cleared up a lot. Using bb daily instead of foundation is something I'll be sticking to!
Tips: I found if you used powder on top it was great instead of heavy foundation.
I was very excited to try BB cream for a while and this one was on sale so i got it. I like how light it felt on my skin, its almost like your not wearing anything at all. Some days i just don't want to wear a full face, so i just put this on with some mascara and lip balm and im good to go. I recommend for people looking for light coverage, its also great as a base/ primer under your foundation.
I find this a good natural day product. On days when I dont really want anything on my face, but feel I need a bit of colour. I like the texture of this its a slightly thin consistency, im not a big fan of super thick creams so this is perfect for me. Blends in nicely and is an overall good productfor my skin.
Tips: Mix half and half with foundation for a bit more coverage
