This is my first ever review of my first BB cream! It's 17's toe-in-the-water of the vast BB cream market. I had been looking into getting a BB cream for a while but was utterly confuzzled so when I saw this I was very excited! 17 is one of my favourite brands and one of the few that I love almost everything in! I swatched it beside my favourite foundation, Max Factor Xperience Weightless in Ivory (its the palest foundation I think out there and a brilliant match for my skin) and it was almost exactly the same so I bought it in a flash.
I have the shade Light and I have to say I absolutely love it! Its replaced my foundation over the last week and I've not been missing the Factor :D This promises to hydrate, blur imperfections and even skintone etc. like all BB creams I've seen and this one definitely does just that! I think it also has SPF15 but I'm not sure and I threw out the box! I was also pleasantly surprised with the coverage it gives. I have no other BBs to compare it to but from what I'd heard and read, I expected it to be very light and best for daytime. However I would have no problem wearing this on a night out either. I apply it onto moisturised skin with my fingers and then dust some Collection pressed powder over it to set.
Soz about the face but any other way I looked about 12! |
It lasts for about 5 hours but don't hold me to that 'cos I wasn't really watching out for when it started to fade
but it lasted quite a while. I think it was under €10 too! So overall I would definitely recommend this BB cream and I really am in love with its flawless ways :D
I hope you enjoyed my first review and that it was helpful!
