Vitamin-dense Bourjois Healthy Mix BB Cream
Why it’s worthwhile to give Bourjois BB Cream a try?
To me, the ingredients are the most convincing. A quality BB cream isn’t made merely for make-up – it should also condition the skin. That is why BB creams are sometimes called a hybrid, a mixture of a moisturizer and foundation. It’s true about Bourjois Healthy Mix BB Cream – it includes a set of vitamins A, B5, C, E. All of them are essential for skin.
As far as colors are concerned, Bourjois Healthy Mix BB Cream is available in three shades working for tanned and pale skins:
01 LIGHT (gently pinkish tones)
02 MEDIUM (one-size-fits-all)
03 DARK (darkest, warm shade)
The consistency is the cream’s benefit too. Bourjois Healthy Mix BB Cream is very lightweight, ensures excellent coverage, evens out the skin tone, illuminates and gives effect of velvety, moisturized skin.
What’s the real effect of Bourjois Healthy Mix BB Cream?
I don’t want to bore you with the manufacturer’s promises and product descriptions. You can read that on the official site. Let’s get to the bottom line.
The first thing that caught my eye was a very pleasant, flowery scent. I guess it’s the only scented BB cream I’ve come across so far but – to my surprise – it doesn’t bother me at all. It is actually a plus because I love the way my skin smells.
Then, the consistency swept me off my feet. I’m not exaggerating, it’s the lightest BB cream I’ve ever used – it doesn’t weigh down the skin, it glides easily all over the face, blends seamlessly. A bit is enough to cover the entire face. Zero smudges, zero flakes, zero stains. Bourjois Healthy Mix Cream is a carefully devised formula that never lets me down.
I should also highlight that it lasts very long. I bought my first Bourjois Healthy Mix Cream 6 months ago, use it regularly and it’s still there. Good value for money.
Bourjois Healthy Mix BB Cream Effect
Let’s talk through the effect since it’s the thing you’re interested in the most. Bourjois Healthy Mix BB Cream:
- camouflages minor flaws and evens out my skin tone.
- smoothes out skin, makes skin soft like velvet.
- delivers valuable ingredients and revitalizes skin.
- enhances natural beauty and healthy shine.
My skin is normal and it works for me but I’ve heard that acne sufferers complain it doesn’t give enough coverage. To be honest, I think problematic skin makes a better match with foundation.
To finish off, I must say that for a “regular” BB cream, Bourjois Healthy Mix BB Cream gives a really long-lasting effect. I’ve been testing it for several months and it stays on for up to 8 hours. I don’t mean it suddenly disappears after that, it might just rub off a bit, exposing some imperfections.
I’m sure we see eye to eye, it’s an extraordinary BB cream. Have any of you tested Bourjois Healthy Mix BB Cream?
