L'oreal Skin Perfection BB Cream-A Review

The Skin Perfection Series is the newest addition to the L'oreal skincare line.


It's hot pink, girly, offers plenty of benefits in a bufget friendly price. So what's not to like?

I got the BB cream, as I was really into trying something from this line, but I've already got a stash of creams and serums.

First of all, it comes in a tube, with a twist lid; you must unscrew it; not the most practical packaging, ever.. It contains 50ml, which is not bad at all and costs 12 Euros.

It's made for younger ages, so from the early 20s to mid 30s and is suitable for sensitive skins also, apart from being non-comedogenic. It's supposed to help with  imperfections, enlarged pores and an uneven skin texture while protecting from premature aging with an SPF of 25.

According to L'oreal "The tinted lightweight formula perfects complexion for a healthy-looking glow"

It is indeed lightweight. Although really moisturising, it does not feel greasy.

It has kind of a weird smell, though. I mean, there's no artificial perfume, so what comes to mind is a pharmaceutical cream. It does not smell of alcohol like the Garnier one for oily skin. It's a completely different smell, not necessarily bad, but not pleasant, either.

I got the lighter shade, "Light", it comes in "Medium" as well.
I must say, it is just a tad darker than my skin-great, regarding that most of the others out there are either too dark, or too yellow, or too pink!



Now, for the negatives:
I see no improvement in the appearance of pores and a really light coverage. So, any imperfections shine through. It does give a smoother, even skintone, but then again I don't really have any obvious discolorations.

All in all, it keeps you hydrated, smoothes out your skin but "Skin Perfection" isn't achieved. 

It does have good elements to it, so I use it as a sunscreen/moisturizer and continue with my foundation, concealer, etc.

I don't think I'd repurchase, though. Perhaps another product of the series!

Have you tried anything?

The Pantone color of the year 2014 series || Hair & Nail Edition

The color of the year series is completed today with this post of hair and nail products.

As said in the previous posts (here and here) I 've become a purple-orchid-color-lover quite recently, but I think that this will be a love to last!

 The following products, much like the ones that have been already featured in this series, are products that I use and love. So, let's go ahead and see them:

Αγαπημένα Σεπτεμβρίου

Γεια σας, γεια σας και καλό μήνα κι από δω!

Ναι, ναι, το ξέρω, ό,τι κι αν πείτε έχετε δίκιο!

Το χειμώνα θα είμαι πιο επιμελής, οπότε οι αναρτήσεις θα είναι πιο τακτικές!

Μεταξύ μας, ο ελεύθερος μου χρόνος είναι πολύ περιορισμένος τελευταία, δεδομένου ότι πέρα από τη δουλειά και τη μπέμπα προσπαθώ να οργανώσω γάμο-βάφτιση (ναι, ναι κλασικά κι εμείς παντρευτήκαμε με πολιτικό και ο big fat Greek wedding θα γίνει ακριβώς λόγω και της βάφτισης, even bigger… Οπότε θέλει αρκετό τρέξιμο και οργάνωση… και δε θα ‘λεγα ότι το ‘χω και τόσο πολύ, αλλά το παλεύω!!!)

Είπα να μη σας αφήσω, όμως, χωρίς αγαπημένα του μήνα, οπότε ορίστε τα γρήγορα- γρήγορα:

Ideal σειρά καθαρισμού της L'oreal - First impressions&mini reviews

Γεια σας, γεια σας μικρά μου περλάκια!



Σήμερα, όπως καταλαβαίνετε κι απ’ τον τίτλο έχει την τιμητική της η νέα σειρά καθαρισμού της Loreal, απ’ όπου αγόρασα κάτι για κάθε τύπο επιδερμίδας (έτσι τα περιγράφει η εταιρία, εξηγώ παρακάτω) στη συνεχή αναζήτηση για το τέλειο καθαριστικό.
