I have not been shy in the past when talking about my dislike of BB Creams. In fact, it was only recently that I actually found one that I thought a little more highly of, the Rojukiss Spotlight cream. After recently reviewing the Ginvera Green Tea Exfoliating Marvel Gel, the lovely people at Janiro offered me the chance to try their much raved about BB cream.
If it had been late last year, I would have perhaps been a little more reluctant, however seeing as I seem to be growing in affection for BB creams, I thought I would give this a go. Claiming to be for all skin tones, I was interested to see if this was true - I am quite pale and some things come up just a little too dark for me.
The product comes in a small, green squeezable tube, the packaging is basic but pretty nonetheless. I do like the fact that all of its claims are shown on the front of the tube and the fact it contains an SPF is a big plus for me. Once I had squeezed a little product out, I was quite fearful that it was going to be just that little bit too dark for me, however once blended, as shown in the pictures above, it blends to a nice, even coverage.
I am a foundation addict, I have tubes and tubes of the stuff - however, this BB Cream has quickly usurped even my favourite foundation (Rimmel Stay Matte, FYI) as my base of choice. It lends to a flawless and even skin tone, which is incredibly handy when I'm trundling into work after just a few hours sleep.
I am definitely thinking of repurchasing this when I run out, although I'm not too sure how my bank balance will like it! Foundation seems to have taken a back seat for now...
Have you ever tried this BB Cream? What BB Creams do you use, if any?
I have not had much luck with BB creams either - they've all been dark and greasy...but I really want to find one for the SPF. Thanks for the review on this!

DeleteI have a tube of this sat in my drawer yet to be used because I suck at ever wearing makeup... half the time i dont bother trying freebies because i'm convinced theyll be too dark but this has tempted me!!
ReplyDeleteDo it!!!x
DeleteHi Bex - I'm here from the blog hop and now following via GFC. I have only recently tried a BB cream that was a sample and I was super disappointed, this one looks very promising though. I will have to keep an eye out for it, I don't think I have ever seen that brand.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely do, its a fab BB cream and thoroughly deserves its rave reviews xo
