I got a sample of Skin Food's Aloe Sun BB Cream from skinfoodbestprice, and I loved it so much that I just had to share my review with you guys~
"A multi-function BB cream that protects skin from UV rays and moisturizes skin with aloe extract, while achieving a clear, radiant skin tone."
This BB cream applies easily and is super lightweight. It really makes my skin look & feel completely naked! It's also very moisturizing, I had some dry patches of skin that were gone after just one day of use.
It has really decent coverage. Some red spots & imperfections may require extra application, and using a concealer beforehand would probably work better to achieve even & flawless looking skin. #1, "Radiant Skin" was a great match for my fair skin, and the overall effect was truly radiant & bright.
This BB cream has a slightly dewy, almost matte finish. You could probably even go without a finishing powder if you'd like! Even without a primer, it's really long-wearing and stays put all day without any oiliness at all. How amazing is that?
Like all of Skin Food's products, it's made with natural ingredients and has a light, fresh, pleasant scent.
Overall: 4/5
After getting such bad results with Skin Food's Mushroom BB Cream, I was wary of trying this...but I ended up being really impressed, I actually like this one a lot! I can't get over how natural it looks & feels. The fact that it keeps my skin from getting oily all day is also a huge plus. I'm really considering purchasing this product!
Did you use a finishing powder when you tested it out though?
ReplyDeleteI really wanna buy something with really good oil control so i dont have to carry around a powder! ><
I did use a finishing powder! I rely on mine so heavily that I didn't even think to go without it :x
DeleteHow would you compare it to Missha's Perfect Cover though? Like is it a more natural look than that? Same type of coverage?
ReplyDeleteSorry for so many questions, just curious because this sounds really nice :>
It is more of a natural look, since the formula is thinner...but the coverage isn't AS good. Also Missha's #21 is more of a warmer color than Skin Food's #1, but that's nothing some good bronzer can't fix!
DeleteThis sounds really worth trying! I have been meaning to grab something from Skin Food since you recommend this brand so this might just be it! ;) Thanks for sharing~
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome, it's totally worth a try!
DeleteI really wanna try this out.
ReplyDeleteo wo;
You should, it's really nice :D
DeleteI really love this BB cream too! I use it nearly everyday! A lot of people like the mushroom one but I didn't like it as much as this :) Great review!
ReplyDeleteThanks! So glad to hear that you love it too :)
DeleteI've heard so many great things about BB cream, I really want to try them! I hope they come out with a line for ethnic skin tones soon!
ReplyDeleteBB cream is the best! I hope that they will come out with some darker tones too. Now that BB creams are becoming more widespread with Sephora brands releasing them, there may be hope!
DeleteAw, you're so lucky that this worked for you. For some reason, Skin Food stuff breaks me out. T_T
ReplyDeleteP.S About the Missoni collection, Target's re-stocking the next few days so you might want to check it out. :)
Aw, sorry to hear about that :(
