Summer Favourite(s).

Hi loves,

Holy Hannah, long time no post, eh?

Just wanted to share a recent summer favourite with you.  As I'm sure you are well aware... BB Creams are all the rave.  I picked up the Garnier Skin Renew Miracle Skin Perfector for combo/ oily skin last week and I must say ... I fell in love.

This BB Cream, unlike the others I have tried, ACTUALLY evens out my skin tone and provides more coverage than most.  Some spots peek through afterwards, in which case I just follow up with some concealer.  But it's a nice formula, easy to blend ... I used my Sigma F80, just as I would with a foundation...

I wouldn't say it lives up to it's claim of a "totally matte" finish.  I followed up with a powder and was still oily by the days end.  However, that's just me.  I have EXTREMELY oily skin that is hard to handle.  For some, I know they can set it with a powder and they have enjoyed the results.

Originally I picked up the Medium/Dark shade but, unfortunately, I left the house the other day looking like an Oompa Loompa seeing as Casper has yet to get her tan on.  I returned to Shoppers a few days later to pick up the Light/Medium.  I now own both shades, as I expect to get darker with the upcoming summer months :)

Just wanted to share that tid-bit for now!


Take care & talk soon!
