I just got a tube of this BB cream at Lawtons for $10.99 in Medium. (30ml)
Has anything else tried this BB cream yet?
I just put it on myself and it blended in pretty well. Just waiting to see how my skin reacts.
I personally really like Maybelline products so I'm hoping this works well for me.

I have it in light, and it is moisturising, but doesn't have good coverage, it pretty much comes out skin color and goes on clear. I put it on and my skin looks immensely greasy so I put a powder on to mattify but after about 2 hours the bb cream absorbs the powder and leave me looking greasy and disgusting.. I don't reccomend it.

I really dont like it. I recommend the loreal bb cream. Its a much smaller tube of it, but it lasts alot longer and doesn't give you a greasy look.

Sounds to me like the Garnier BB cream may be better than this one. That's pretty disappointing I was looking forward to trying this one not so much now.

I actually really like this one and prefer it to the Garnier one. The Garnier felt too thick on my skin when first applied, while this one doesn't.

I hate all of them. Maybelline turned red on me same with the L'Oreal one while Garnier is oily. Not one so-called BB cream on the US market is real BB cream and is nothing more than tinted moisturizer masquerading as BB cream. Let's face it, the companies in the US think Westerns are morons and will never know the difference between Asian BB cream and the junk they're pushing. I'll still with my Asian BB creams.

Well, while everyone adores to original BB creams out of Asia lets not forget that folks with deeper skintones cannot wear the stuff. I tried.On me I looked like Casper the ghost with a bad case of sea sickness (gray ashy cast to the skin). There has been more epic failures with Western brands coming out with their own version of BB cream than successes but for me personally I found one that has been great for me(Smashbox) and I look forward to trying Bobbi Brown's version of BB cream soon.

I agree with Shelley W. The Smashbox BB Cream is a great one for all skin tones. I recommend that one!

Another cool thing about the Smashbox BB cream is that it helps dry out any acne that may pop up. So if I have a zit pop up I use Smashbox for a few days and viola that sucker is gone. All the other one's that I sampled didn't give the same effect....not only did their shades weren't a perfect match but they made me break out as well. :(

I was looking forward to buying it but I hear nothing but bad reviews on it. So I might buy loreal or garnier

Sorry ( maybe a dumb question on this sight considering I'm an MUA) but what is bb cream? Lol

@Mary Anne M. The Smashbox BB coverage for myself personally is pretty great. It gives me medium coverage. It allows me to not depend on undereye concealer if I'm in a rush and don't want to apply it. I apply with clean fingers and I work in sections on my face because it sets pretty quickly. And then I set it with Too Faced Trans.Powder. I suggest heading out to Sephora and getting samples of both just so you can compare before making the investment (and also to see how your skin reacts to it).

I really like it as a light weight, mosturizing foundation. I use it on days when i dont need too much coverage or if im going to the pool or the beach. However, i use maybelline's dream matte mousse for days when i need more coverage. All in all though, the bb cream is a pretty good summer foundation/tinted mosturizer

Get samples before you buy. I found the Smashbox one looked great at first then oxidized orange on me, same with Too Faced and so many others. This is why I hate Western brands because every single one turns orange or red on me while Korean and Japanese ones are perfect for my coloring. I was joking with this Japanese girl at a booth from Japan at CPNA last week about how Western brands make me look like an Oompa Loompa and she said to me that my coloring is just like hers so looking like an Oompa Loompa is bad.

its okay... not bad but not great. i dont like the dewy finish at all, and it doesnt cover much. it also kind of sucks because i am inbetween two shades. ones a little too light and ones too dark, so i stuck with the lighter one. i just wear it if im hanging out around my boyfriends house & were not going anywhere special mostly, lol. definitely way better than the garnier one though, i absolutely hated that one. i guess we are all just going to have to splurge to get a good bb cream :(
