BB creams- newest beauty buzz

 
If you haven’t already heard some of the buzz on BB creams, you will — you’ll be seeing a lot of them over the next several months.So, what are BB creams? If you think of this stuff as a miracle cream, you’ll be underwhelmed. But if you think of it as a one-step makeup time saver — great. BB creams are multi-taskers that combine skincare ingredients with moisturizer, primer, foundation and SPF.

After reading countless reviews and recommendations, I was still pretty hesitant to jump on the BB bandwagon.  As many of you know, I don't really need any more makeup tubes in my makeup drawer and I'm hesitant with trying out new foundations without testing it out first...


However, when I saw the Garnier Skin Renew BB Cream staring back at me from the shelves of my local CVS - at a reasonable $12.99 - I figured I had to give it a shot, right?  And the verdict is in...I'm in love!  This product takes the place of a moisturizer, primer and foundation in one, shortening my morning routine by a mile.  It also actually gives really nice, buildable coverage.  That says a lot coming from a medium to full coverage foundation girl.  It also keeps my T-zone from looking shiny and sets up to a beautiful, satin finish that holds up incredibly well throughout the day.
