Bourjois BB Cream


Hi,

This sales Femke bought a BB cream of Bourjois. She has been using it for a month now and she though it was a good idea to make a review about it. She bought it for something like € 12, but it normally costs € 15. The box looks very chic, she absolutely loves it! And you can turn the mirror in all different kind of ways. So she was even happier that she bought it when she saw the box. It comes with a very soft sponge too. The package is perfect for us. And Femke is not even thinking of throwing it away.


On the box it says that this BB cream does 8 things: perfection 16h, smoothing, targeted correction, anti fatigue, anti-shine, anti-aging, long-lasting hydration and SPF 20. Well lets see if it's true. 
Perfection 16h: For Femke it stayed sometimes whole day and sometimes just 6 houres. We think it depends on how much you touch your face and the weather. The box isn't so big, so you can take it with you and like that you can adjust if you need to during the day, so it's not such a big deal.
Smoothing: It does makes Femke's skin super soft and it looks pretty smooth, but you still can see some of her pimpels and blemishes. But for a BB cream we think it covers pretty good, because BB creams never have a great coverage.
Targeted correction: We don't really think something even can correct targeted(that would be a magical product), so no it doesn't.
Anti Fatigue: Femke used to wear a foundation and the first day she worn her new BB cream someone said her she looked very tired, so no it doesn't make you look more awake if you are tired. It actually even accentuates your dark circles a bit, which sounds weird, but yes it does.
Anti-shine: It doesn't shine at all, it kind of looks like a matte BB cream. Which Femke prefers, so she is very happy about that.
Anti-aging: Femke doesn't know if it does this, because she isn't that old yet. ;) 
Long-lasting hydration: We think it does hydrates your skin, like we said her skin is feeling very soft lately, but we don't think it has a long-lasting hydration. 
SPF 20: Well, she didn't got a sunburn, but it's the middle of the winter, so we don't know if this really works. But normally it would work. We think every BB cream or foundation you buy should have a SPF, because it prevents wrinkels and skin cancer. 
We think it's okay for a BB cream and in combination with the Bourjois Happy Light Concealer it's perfect. We said that it wasn't such a good concealer, because it didn't really cover anything. But when you first use this BB cream and then on top of the blesmishes that the BB cream didn't cover you put some of this concealer, it will look great! They are perfectly made for each other. But there is still one negative thing of this BB cream: Femke her box is almost empty and she has been using it for only a month! So it's a bit expensive if you have to buy every month a new one. So once again we're going to search for a better and cheaper one.

Maia & Femke
