The Body Shop All-in-one BB Cream


Hello ^__^

With a lot of buzz about BB Cream lately and seems like the crave for BB Cream last for a long time too, The Body Shop has come up with their own version of BB Cream.

-*-



Today these goodies come knockin' on my door and I'm happily accept them. I'll create a look using all of them but now this post will be just about the BB Cream called All-in-one BB Cream.
-*-


Details from www.thebodyshop.com.sg:

A masterpiece of make-up and skincare, our All-In-One BB Cream possesses a lightweight formula that provides 24hr hydration and colour-adapts for a perfect match and a smooth, undetectable finish. It’s make-up and skincare in one!
Apply over moisturised skin and see the colour transform and adapt perfectly to your skin tone. For increased coverage, apply All-In-One Face Base.

Still in their strength as a skincare brand well-known all around the world, the BB Cream focused on providing the skin a 24 hour moisture, doesn't clogged the pores, light, soften the skin and even out the tone.

Mine is 02 Natural, but how come it's white?

-*-





Apparently all of their shades start as a white light cream where there's dots, tiny brown/dark dots. It will burst and provide tone to the skin. I think mine should be 01.

-*-





Let's just try the product, shall we?!

-*-



As clearly seen the BB Cream is still white when touching the skin, I try this circular moment and feels like the skin is getting a scrub, so the representative of The Body Shop Indonesia told me not to use 'massaging' movement but to dab gently.

-*-





And after gently dabbing, carefully distribute the cream (still with dabbing movement). I think a sponge or brush would do the trick as well. But fingers is always my first choice. The smell is wonderful, like something from the forest, wild flowers aroma ^__^

After well spread, this is my 'after' look. The BB Cream covers the skin light-medium coverage. Hide large pores, uneven skin tone and gives the skin a moisturizing effect with a noticeable moist look as well. Powder is needed afterwards so the skin will have a velvety finish. Unlike most BB Cream out there, the All-in-one BB Cream from The Body Shop doesn't have any sun protection. So when used day time please use a sunscreen first before the BB Cream, and made this  product suitable to be used at night as well.

Cleansing wise? Use a makeup remover.

Stay tune for my next post creating a look with the whole Best Sellers makeup series from The Body Shop, and psssst!!! A little bird told me the 01 shade (Rosy) is the most sought after in Indonesia, so grab one fast before too late.

    The smell of BB Cream is actually coming from Marula Oil, our secret ingredient! ;)
