I received these products from Influenster for review. A big thank you to Influenster!! I received Ponds Luminous Finish BB+ Cream in Light and Medium.
I have heard so many great reviews on the Ponds BB cream on blogs, YouTube, Facebook so I was so excited to receive these products . I was wanting to purchase this but was waiting for a sale. Well good thing I waited.
The description on the box states "Even skin tone for a natural, luminous look! Ponds Luminous Finish BB+ cream is formulated with breakthrough Tone Perfecting Complex and gives you luminous coverage instantly + visible dark spot reduction. Effortlessly reveal your natural, luminous look! Natural looking coverage. Visible dark spot reduction. SPF 15 with UVA/UVB protection. Non-greasy moisturization. Non-comedogenic - wont clog pores. Dermatologist tested. Hypoallergenic".
This is true to claim. It is a very natural looking coverage. In fact it does not even look like I have this product on my face. I know BB creams are not supposed to have coverage but I was expecting more. I have been using the Garnier BB cream for oily skin and that has great coverage so maybe my standards for BB creams have increased?
Besides the very natural coverage, the BB cream has a fragrance. To me it smells like a "clean" detergent like smell. Lets just say I'm not that great at explaining smells so take this as you wish. I really enjoyed putting this on my face.
The color choices are of course limited. They come in light and medium. Medium was too dark for my olive skin tone and light was a tad too light. I'm still trying to experiment mixing the two colors to find my perfect shade.
Again with so many great reviews I really wanted to love this product. It just did not work out for me. That doesn't mean it wont work for you. My skin is extremely oily with large pores and an olive complexion. I hope this will work for you!!
