Review: Benefit Big Easy Liquid-to-Powder BB Cream

Ok, I cheated. The actual name is Benefit Big Easy Liquid-to-Powder multi-balancing complexion perfector. That is one huge, not easy bite of words. So I just had to buy it cause I'm a sucker for Benefit packaging. What's new?

So this BB cream is said to be lightweight and able to balance moisture and oil. It also has a liquid to powder finish so you don't need to set it with a powder. It also comes in 6 shades but it also has self-adjusting abilities. I guess if you picked up a shade that is slightly off, it will adjust to suit you? I like that it is oil-free and non-comodegenic. And it comes with a SPF of 35+!

(I also appreciate that Benefit didn't try to list a whole range of benefits that the BB cream will do to you. )

So I like that it is a squeeze tube and the amount to be squeezed out can be controlled very well. Thumbs up!

I'm not sure what this picture is suppose to show you hahaha but looking up close, it really finishes very well. Not too matte, not too glowy. More to a satiny finish. It also feels very smooth and doesn't have any strong scent. 

This BB cream accentuate dry areas significantly. But it works fine for me in humid Singapore because in about 4 hours, the dry patches are hardly noticeable and my skin still looks matte and dey. In fact, I liked that it is dry because it means it will keep the oil at bay. 

I am using no. 1 in Fair and I really like the color! It has a pink undertone and brightens my skin considerably. No. 2 in Light is also a nice color for fair-skinned if you are a yellow undertone. I use it on my cheeks, around my nose area and around my mouth. But keep in mind if your mouth area is dry, skip it. and if your undereye is dry, don't try. (hey, it rhymed)

I do recommend this for people with oiler skin and it does come in a whole range of shades so that's always good. 

Have you tried this? What do you think about it?

Love,

Pea

Update// 6.50PM

I just checked my face and I am loving this BB cream! My natural oil has sipped through and my face is just slighty glowy. I applied this at around 745AM this morning and it is 11 hours alr! Normally my skin is an oily mess by now and I changed nth about my routine. I used my sunblock and Smashbox primer underneath and dust my Guerlain Meteorites Perles over the BB cream. I am so loving this oil control!
