A department store believer!
I have always bought foundation at a department store; seems like everytime I bought foundation at a drugstore, it left my skin oily or caused breakouts. This product is actually a BB cream, which in my personal opinion, I think this type of product is overhyped. However, there are just days when a girl needs a bit of coverage, but something more sheer so I decided to give this a try. It was aroun...read mored $6 which is a great pricepoint for this. It is surprisingly rich and very little is needed. In fact, I use less of this product than I do of my foundation. The coverage is excellent; I cannot stress that enough. It is actually not quite as sheer as I expected but I ended up just loving it. I bought it in Light and was so impressed with the shade and tone; it looked like it was made for my skin. I will definitely continue to purchase. The only reason I did not give it a 10 was their advertised claim that it mattifies; I did not experience that but wish I had! My skin is combo oily and I need all of the oil control I can get.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 3 of 3 people said helpful

amazing product!
I love the entire line of Rimmel Cosmetics. I have been searching for a BB Cream that is under $8, and that works well. I love this. It is perfect for me, and matches my skin tone so well. This is an essential. Totally repurchasing.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 7 of 8 people said helpful

Not sure what to think
This is my first venture into the world of the BB cream, and if this is the norm, I'm a little confused. I struggle to see what the difference is between this, and a regular foundation (in a super limited variety of shades) that you apply with your fingers. My understanding of BB creams is that they are lighter than a foundation, but a bit more coverage than a tinted moisturizer, and this stuff is...read more heavier than the foundational I typically use. I bought the medium shade because that's what I wear in tinted moisturizers, I'm a white girl but not super fair skinned, and this makes me look ORANGE. The price isn't bad, I might decide to try the light shade once this is gone and see what I think. I do like the level of coverage, but again, it's more than I expected from a BB cream. I'd prefer a BB cream to leave me with a more natural look, and definitely not looking like an oompa loompa. In the meantime, I'm mixing this 50/50 with my moisturizer until it's gone.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 2 of 2 people said helpful
