Beauty Blogging!
Hello there good people of this world! So recently, I've been watching lots of Beauty Vloggers and reading lots of their blogs as well and it got me thinking... I want to do this too! I've always been interested in beauty products and makeup and in general stuff like that so what better thing to do than review them for you guys! So let's get rolling!So the first thing I wanted to review is the Garnier BB Cream Skin Renew Miracle Skin Perfector for Combination to Oily Skin in Light/Medium. This product is Dermatologist tested for safety, Noncomedogenic (won't clog pores), Non-acnegenic (won't cause breakouts), gentle to the skin, oil-free and nongreasy. It says that it immediately mattifies, minimizes pores, and conceals imperfections to give skin a naturally smooth, flawless finish.
So to start off, I've never used a tinted moisturizer and I have never used foundation before in my makeup routine. I would usually use some kind of pressed powder with some concealer underneath. But lately, I've been hearing a lot of good things about this product and I liked the fact that it was a tinted moisturizer because that seemed a little bit less daunting for me, as compared to foundation. Also, I loved the fact that it had Broad Spectrum SPF 20 in it.
Another thing, (and I don't know if this is true or not, I'll have to do some research) but I heard that using tons of foundation, or in general using it a lot is bad for your skin and could quite possibly make any skin problems worse which made me very wary about trying foundations and tinted moisturizers...
I have acne, although it has definitely calmed down from what it used to be 3 years ago. I had to see a dermatologist and was prescribed antibiotics for about a year in addition to topical treatment and with that I was able to calm down the acne and help it get better.
Because of my acne problems, I really liked this product because it really did what it said it would do. After only 3 uses, I noticed my skin looked like it had an evener tone and it looked actually more vibrant and glowing. Also, the product itself didn't look cakey on my skin when I would put it on. However, it does really show dry skin, so make sure to exfoliate before putting it on so as to decrease the amount of dead dry skin on the face that the product can latch on to. I really loved the coverage of this product because although it was not really heavy coverage, it was good enough to cover my big acne breakouts and leave my skin looking quite healthy and natural.
Overall, I give this product a 7 out of 10. The only thing I didn't like was the price ($12) but I mean, I guess in the grand scheme of things that's not too expensive. Also, I didn't really like that I couldn't use brushes with this product because it dried pretty quickly, and so I had to use my fingers (which honestly wasn't that bad either). Also, this product claimed to be all-day shine control and it does control shine really well for about 4-5 hours but after about 5-6 hours, I definitely noticed an oily shine on my face. However, I don't know if it's because my face is just uber oily or if it's this product. Please let me know if anyone also had this problem down below!
For a first-time liquid product that is a tinted moisturizer/foundation I really like this one and would recommend it to anyone! It also comes in Medium and Dark shades and comes in an anti-aging formula.
