BB Cream has really come out in a big way in the western beauty world, and it was time for Face of Australia to take the plunge and invest in their own version. FOA kindly sent me the two shades (Light / Medium and Medium / Dark) they have released thus far to test out.
This is going to sound strange, but the first thing I noticed was the scent. It reminded me of Coke! As in the soft drink Coke~ It’s a guilty pleasure of mine so I was really digging the scent! Highly unusual. However after I applied the BB Cream the scent slowly started to fade away (that or I was getting used to it).
I found the formula to be very hydrating, it was great at helping cover and almost moisturises all the dry patches on my skin, you definitely couldn’t tell I was suffering from an eczema break out when I had this on. It left my skin with a nice glowy look.
Unfortunately neither of the shades matched my skin tone 🙁 Both were far too dark for me, hence no face photos because after I applied the Light / Medium formula, it looked like I had been sitting in the sun for a bit too long! If they had a lighter shade I could definitely see myself actively using it on the weekends when I wear face products.
You can check these out at any Face of Australia stand, they retail for $8.95AU each!
I will definitely be looking into buying the medium/dark one. Thanks for providing the swatches. 🙂
