Firstly I have a medium skin tone, but a light skin tone neck and normal - dry skin. On the instructions it indicated to apply after serum, I usually apply moisturiser after serum but did not with this product. \n\nI found the packaging rather nice, it came in a white long tube with a purple lid. It didn't have much of a scent to it which was good, I dislike having scented foundations or creams that aren't appealing. The BB cream had a greyish white colour to it with bead-like granules which reminded me of exfoliating beads but much gentler on the skin. It was very easy to use, just like how I apply moisturiser. I wouldn't apply this with a make up brush because I think it may look streaky because you really need to blend it in and work fast. \n\nThe medium skin ...

Throughout the day, it didn't feel like I was wearing foundation or anything heavy on my face at all, and it lasted all day til I got home late at night, it was still looking dewy and fresh. I loved how it was very light on my skin and not cakey although I'm sure I could build up the product if I wanted to wear it for a night out and more coverage. At first I thought there wasn't going to be much coverage but within a couple of minutes, the shade did appear, \n\nOverall, I do like this product quite a lot but as for it being a BB cream, it's not the best. I see this more fit to be a foundation. After the application of the BB cream, I applied a bit of bronzer, blush, fixed up my eyebrows, liquid liner and mascara. \n... Show more

Really impressed with this unique product, a colour-changing adjusting BB that doesn't leave me orange! I am very pale and every single "colour changing" product comes out orange on me. I got several samples of this in an order and had absolutely no hopes that it would work. It is a thin but granular feeling white creme, more of a lotion type consistency and very little scent. I applied to bare skin and immediately it changed to a better version of my skin. It dries down quickly and sets to a demi-matte finish, really almost full matte but still leaves your skin looking like it has some life, and not flat and lifeless like a true matte can do. I didn't need powder to set it, it lasted a good portion of the day and if I needed touching up (like where my sunglasses ...

I didn't need powder to set it, it lasted a good portion of the day and if I needed touching up (like where my sunglasses print my nose) I could just rub a little into that spot for a quick refresh. I love this so much I bought a tube of both the medium and the light - honestly there isn't a great deal of difference between them on the skin but when I want a more summer look I will use the medium even though I am quite pale. I love the pretty tube, the narrow nozzle for dispensing it and especially the results. Perfect looking medium coverage and such an ultra-lightweight formula it feels like nothing is on your skin. It is really pigmented so you only need the smallest amount to do your whole face. You can build the coverage or sheer it out if you want a lighter look. Really a winner in my book and it is more a serum colour-correcting product rather than just a BB, I think it is selling itself short calling it just a BB cream! Perfect travel companion as it is an all-in-one product.... Show more

Fantastic
Never written a review about makeup before but I love this product. Surprised about other reviews. Does feel a bit gritty going on but I have had a lot of comments and people asking what foundation I am using. My skin has a more even tone all over. Stays on all day. I like that it is not shiny. I am in my 50s and blends in well with my skin. I have spent over $100 for a foundation in the past and this is better than anything I have had before and very reasonably priced.... Show more

Feels like sand
Wanted to love this for an affordable, everyday, ‘no makeup’ makeup look but I am shocked at how gritty this product is. It feels like I’m rubbing sand onto my face. I can generally persist with a product I don’t like but this feels like I am damaging my face. I don’t understand how or why a CC cream needs to be gritty. Don’t waste your money!... Show more

Itchy!
Quite unusual formulation. I thought “Ok it’s unique give it a try” but when I apply I always get itching especially around my nose. I never experience sensitive reactions to products usually . My skin is normal. I can’t use this product. I love a BB cream and usually love L’Oréal products.... Show more

Light natural flawless tone.
The only foundation i use. Light weight, blends well, non cakey and smooth texture and looks flawless. Its subtle light coverage but i use a concealer for blemishes if i need to and this for an all over general foundation. My skin looks natural and gives it a nice glow. Have been using for years....

My holy grail product
If I could only use 1 makeup product for the rest of my life, it would be this. Natural looking medium coverage, smooth texture, hydrating, and a great colour match (which normally I struggle with being so pale). The only things to note are that the mineral spf can cause it to pill if you work it for too long, and it does dry down quite quickly so it isn't one of those products to dot everywhere and then blend - you need to work in sections. I also found that using a brush is best, I used to use a sponge and it left a lot of texture, so much so that I thought I didn't like the product. It's super lightweight and feels like you're just wearing moisturiser. I got multiple compliments on my skin the first day of wearing it :)... Show more

Not a bb cream this is full coverage
It’s thick and dry and doesn’t spread very well. It’s also not light, it’s kind of orangey yellow. Olay don’t do a light anymore so was looking for an alternative but have just bought their light to medium which is 100%better than this. If you want a natural look this isn’t it.... Show more

Really is magic
I bought this on a whim seeing it on the shelf in Superdrug. I'm so glad I did! Lately I've been having issues with foundation either clinging to dry patches of skin or sitting in my pores, no matter what I use, and I've been sick of spending hours researching different foundations and primers and everything I try ending up with the same slightly disappointing result. I exfoliate, I moisturise, the foundation will always look a bit poo. So as I say I bought this totally on a whim and was gobsmacked, it actually is magic. I don't need to use much and it just sinks into my skin without looking like I'm wearing anything, it just leaves me looking hydrated and glowy with an even skin tone. I bought 'light' and agree it's not super light, but it doesn't look orange on ... MoreI bought this on a whim seeing it on the shelf in Superdrug. I'm so glad I did!

I bought 'light' and agree it's not super light, but it doesn't look orange on me, it just looks like I've caught a healthy bit of sun, it's not too dark at all. There is actually a lighter shade available but it seems Superdrug don't sell it so try elsewhere if this one is too dark for you. I love the smell and texture, and the fact that it has SPF. It lasts so wrll all day. I can set it with a little powder if I want a more polished look or just leave it for a more 'woke up like this' glow, I love it both ways. I'm so happy to have found this as my everyday product to slap on in the morning before work in mere seconds, where I used to spend ages every morning trying to put on a little foundation just to look less blotchy and tired and end up getting frustrated with the result, this is so quick and easy I will be stocking up! Absolutely love it.... Show more

Wonder cream
So much better than I expected. Never tried anything like thus before and as I want a tinted moisturiser that doesn’t clock my pores, I thought I would try this. Really impressed and recommend it. It works tge shade out naturally so I don’t look like an oopa loompa!!!... Show more
