As I have already told you guys, I've been having skin issues for a while now. I have been given a topical solution to put on my mild acne by the doctors and it seems to be working. Since it is slowly improving I decided that caking on the foundation, like I usually do, probably won't help! And since Summer is drawing closer a more natural look is appropriate.
I purchased the 17 BB cream today and I'm so excited that I thought I'd show you what it looks like once applied. I bought it in the shade medium, which I was really worried about at first but because it is so sheer it isn't the end of the world and also since I'm at my palest at the moment it will eventually match up to my skin tone once I've been on holiday.
17 BB Cream - Medium |
I've just noticed that this has SPF25, which is a huge bonus because the foundations I normally wear don't have any SPF.
So, the application.
I use my fingers to apply this and it gives a lovely natural look. It definitely does not cover my problem areas but I definitely wasn't expecting it to. But it does cover redness and evens out the skin tone.
Collection 2000's Long Lash mascara - Black |
Isn't this mascara just amazing, my lashes don't look too caked and are lovely and separated. I only got this today but already I'm in love!
So, what do you guys think of the finished result? Using a lot less product is very scary, I'll make sure I update you on how this goes and I'll do a review on the BB cream once I've used it for a while!

Thank you :) x
DeleteThis looks lovely, it does make a real difference even if blemishes aren't completely covered xx
ReplyDeleteYeah I think I'd rather not have flawless skin than be caked in foundation like I used to and aggravate it more (especially with Summer coming up!) Thank you :) xx
DeleteHow is the colour range for this? I bought the Garnier BB cream (I have a review on my blog! :)) and it was amazing apart from the fact it was quite dark for me. ):
ReplyDeleteI was going to try Garnier but I've heard it turns quite orangey. The colour range for the 17 cream, I'd say, is pretty poor. I'm pale but went for the medium shade and it has pink undertones. I have olive skin, which you can't tell from the photos, so it doesn't really match me great. But, saying that, I find it does adjust slightly after application and because it's a sheer coverage you can get away with it :) xx
Deleteseems like a very nice cream! Nice review!
