   This is a bit pricey, but it’s the perfect makeup solution for a hot and sticky summer day. It’s very light and non-greasy, and it really does stay on all day. This beauty balm feels like you’re adding a new layer of skin to your face that’s glowy and perfect. But you can only wear it on very good skin days because it’s very sheer. I use a translucent setting powder on top of this, and I look like I’m barely wearing any makeup except my skin is super smooth and even colored. Perfect for a day at the cottage.

   This is the best bb primer! Other primers would leave my oily skin feeling greasy but this dries down to a nice matte finish. Does a better job at minimizing my large pores and keeping my foundation on longer and looking fresh. I notice I get more compliments on my skin and makeup when I use this.

   This was the first BB cream I bought and I wore it daily for about 4 months before I started to notice it left a white cast when applied that was tough to blend out. The texture is really nice but I’d say this is better as a primer than a BB balm. Too expensive for me, especially since it didn’t meet my expectations. I’ve since tried a number of other BB creams with much better results. Also, the scent is little strange but thankfully it doesn’t seem to linger for too long. Maybe it’s better for someone with a flawless complexion and skin on the dry side but for my combination skin, it’s not ideal.

   On the package – broad spectrum SPF 30 and water resistant (80 minutes). I didn’t try these components because it’s winter at the moment. I’ll get back to this review in the summer.

   This BB cream truly does stay on all day and gives good coverage. The scent is not overpowering at all and the texture is just perfect. I do start to shine around the T Zone after 6 hours of wear, but that’s inevitable with oily skin!

   Have had this in my makeup droor for a while. I used it on a trip to the Caribbean because I saw it was supposedly water-resistant. Welllll the coverage isn’t great, it’s more like an orange tinted moisturizer than anything out. Like just puts an orangey cast on your face without covering anything. It doesn’t drip/leak or smudge in the water, but it fades. Oh well. Came in a set amongst other things so whatever. Would be good for you if you just need sheer coverage and are tan-ish.

   I have never been one to follow beauty trends, but once all my friends got on the BB cream craze, I had to see what all the fuss was about. I asked a friend which to try and she recommended this one from Stila and I’ve kept it in my daily routine ever since. I love mixing 1 part BB cream with 1 part of my Benefit foundation and 1 part of brightener. This leaves my skin with great medium coverage, hydrated, and bright for a natural beautiful glow. Would definitely recommend to individuals who don’t necessarily love makeup but want something to even skin tone and leave you refreshed with stunning even skin.

   The product has really good coverage especially for a bb cream, I have really normal skin which becomes dry in the winter and a little oily in the summer. I’ve been looking for a new product to replace my garnier bb cream which tends to be too greasy for the summer. After putting this on in the morning, I felt it had good coverage but didn’t really like the thickness of the product. By the end of the end of the day I honestly could not wait to get home and take it off my face, it felt sticky, goopy, and just disgusting on my face. I’ve worn the heaviest of foundations and have never felt this way. It only gets 2 stars for its coverage and for the fact that it performed to a mediocre level throughout the day.

   I really love this product. I use it instead of foundation and it provides just enough coverage for me. My skin has improved since using it too. Will definitely repurchase.

    I am so conflicted with this one. This is the first BB cream I’ve tried, so I don’t have much to compare it too, thus I’ll give it the benefit of the doubt and give it four lippies.

    There have been times I’ve used it and it looks great, and times when it looks really gross. I guess it’s dependent upon what kind of skin day I’m having (my skin is super tempermental; case in point, if I don’t drink enough water, if I don’t get enough sleep, etc.) If you have an even skin tone, this would probably be perfect for you. However, I have redness and large pores, and I don’t feel this BB cream does that great of a job covering that up (I have to come in with my NARS creamy concealer after – which gives amazing coverage). The colour does blend nicely into my skin, however, and it doesn’t dry my skin out OR make it oily, so big pluses there.

    It’s okay for days when you don’t need to put on much makeup, like lazy days when you just need to run a few errands or whatever. I wouldn’t depend on it for more than that though, as I prefer my coverage to be full and flawless for days when I’m doing more important stuff. I wouldn’t repurchase just because it’s kind of pricy for just being okay, and I plan on trying something else a bit cheaper when it runs out.
