The DIY: Faux BB Cream

Diposting oleh good reading on Rabu, 01 Mei 2013


BB cream is an all-in-one facial cosmetic product it's usually marketed as a serum, moisturiser  primer, foundation, and sunblock in one. most brands have their own version of the BB cream which stands for Blemish Balm usually they come in the usual white - tan shades (though brands like Bobbie Brown have more shades to choose from) A lot of the drug store brands don't have the best ingredients or shade options so I figured I would try my hand at making my own version of the BB cream. 
I  used up my Hello Beautiful Mineral Make Up and I mixed with a moisturiser, I used a make up lid to mix a few sprinkles of  Hello Beautiful Foundation  in Gatteau au chocolate, with Madara Deep Moisture Fluid for normal  to combination skin because it is light weight and has great ingredients for supple, firm skin.

 I added some Balance Me Radiance Oil for added moisture. 
A lot of the moisturisers on the market have a lot of combinations for your skin needs, such as anti ageing serum and SPF which are similar to what BB creams offer. The Anita Grant Mineral Foundation mixes well with creams and is a great idea if you are not to handy with a brush as the faux BB can be applied with a make up sponge. you still get the reflective element from the Mineral Foundation which helps to bounce light off any uneven skin. and just add more if you want more coverage. Mines more of a tinted moisturiser than a BB cream but you can add whatever products work for you, for instance add Monistat chafing gel if you want the primer element that BB creams give which helps the cream to go on smoothly with a matte finish and use a moisturiser with sun screen.
