JanineM Posted August 27, 2012 #2 Share Posted August 27, 2012 I got a sample with a magazine the other day and will try later this week. I read a magazine at the nail salon they other day and they compared all of the different BB creams. Of course I can't remember which one was best, but I think the L'Oreal one was rated as a good option at a reasonable price. I think they're helpful with more mature skin as they're supposed to help hide imperfections. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
satchiesmom Posted August 27, 2012 #3 Share Posted August 27, 2012 I use Garnier BB cream, love it. I doubt that it has any real long term effect on my skin (which is most definitely not young), but it does look great while I have it on. I use it as my daytime moisturizer/foundation.

reginaphalange Posted August 27, 2012 #4 Share Posted August 27, 2012 My understanding is that it's just a tinted moisturizer...is this correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
binkysmom Posted August 27, 2012 #5 Share Posted August 27, 2012 My understanding is that it's just a tinted moisturizer...is this correct? It's heavier than a tinted moisterizer. It's supposed to be your moisterizer, foundation, concealer and anti-anging (I think) all rolled into 1 product. I have oily skin and find it a bit heavy for the summer, but will use it once the cooler weather comes around. I don't like using it on my neck though (will continue to just use a moisterizer with SPF on neck and chest year round). BTW - I love R&M High School Reunion!

CasaM Posted August 27, 2012 #6 Share Posted August 27, 2012 I just read about these BB creams in Women's Day magazine. They recommended 2: L'Oreal Paris Youth Code BB Cream Illuminator, which comes in light or medium, $16.99; or Maybelline New York Dream Fresh BB Cream, which comes in 5 shades, $8.99. I haven't tried any yet, but am interested in doing so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
belles Posted August 27, 2012 #7 Share Posted August 27, 2012 I had never heard of it until today I saw on Good Afternoon America. They had a beauty expert on there showing different cosmetics at reasonable prices. She recommended L'Oreal http://gma.yahoo.com/afternoon/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rainbowfalls Posted August 28, 2012 #8 Share Posted August 28, 2012 I love bb cream, I have been using it for two years now. I have tried the american versions but find them to be nothing more then tinted light moisturizers and doesn't correct inperfections or gives me any glow like the other kinds. I use skin79 or missha and would recommend anyone who really wants the best benefits from bb cream to use those kinds or dart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JanineM Posted August 28, 2012 #9 Share Posted August 28, 2012 I tried the sample I received today. It is the L'Oreal brand, and colour is "light". I'm fair skinned, so the sample just happened to be right for me. It is runnier than I expected - more light a liquid lotion than a cream. It also is a little bit rough going on (like a liquid with a teeny bit of sand), but once it goes on the roughness disappears completely. If this was a weekend - and not a workday - I'd wear it without any foundation. It really evened out my skin tone which tends to be a bit ruddy (have a bit of rosacea). It also seemed to work as a foundation primer, smoothing over my pores. Bottom line - I'd buy it. I'll probably test out the Clinique and others before purchasing, but think it's a keeper.

jnc411 Posted August 29, 2012 Author #11 Share Posted August 29, 2012 Thank You everyone for all the information , I knew I could count on the CC ladies to get the information I needed. I think I will try to get the sample of the Loreal BB cream , and I might pop over to the store and see about getting the Maybelline less expensive one to try. I am finding as I get older , the less stuff I put on my face the better and if I get get my moisturizer and tint in one step , great. I will post again once I try it , let you know what I think . Thanks again Ladies. Cori Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gail360 Posted August 31, 2012 #14 Share Posted August 31, 2012 I have just started using " Nude By Nature " BB Cream - Getting a few comments how nice I look , considering I have never worn Foundation as I have alway felt it was too much or heavy for my skin colour , I have an Olive complextion . Pretty happy with the lightness of it and all over result . :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BluMama Posted August 31, 2012 #15 Share Posted August 31, 2012 I just got the Garnier BB cream and it's pretty good. Was outdoors yesterday evening in heat with it on and didn't feel like my face was getting oily, etc. I'd recommend it! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BND Posted August 31, 2012 #16 Share Posted August 31, 2012 This site is breaking my bank. First it was the John Freida hot air brush and now I just bought the L'Oreal BB today. I got it at BB&B for $14.99. I usually wear Neutrogena tinted moisturizer, but lately I can't find it in the stores and had to order it on Amazon. So, if I like the L'Oreal, I won't have to order the Neutrogena anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

red stripe Posted September 1, 2012 #20 Share Posted September 1, 2012 Thank you. Perhaps I will try it. Have any of you used Nanoblur? It comes in a tube, costs around $20 and actually does what it says it will- It takes off TEN Years. It is not a foundation, you can use it on top of your makeup or on it,s own. it is amazing and your face does not feel tight. My sis in Canada told me about it. It is carried in some wallmart wallgreens stores etc. But if you can not find it in stores by you, then you can find it online Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How funny that on EVERY product ever made.. there is always some that things that do not work for all people. Kinda like Asprin. I can only say that for me it worked..in the evenings in air conditioning. I would not try this during the day while out in the humidity, but I would not wear any makup other than lipstick and mascara during the day. so try it or not.. personally I think that any product that is in the twenty dollar range is well worth a try, as usually I back away from forking out $ 60 to give something a try.

Great suggestion!! I went to the store yesterday and the BB cream was pretty much out of stock, (in my shade) so I am going to try again tomorrow, have a Walgreen and Walmart near here , so I will try both. Did you find the shades pretty true to color, light -ivory, etc.?? Cori Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
