L'Oréal Paris Magic Skin Beautifier BB Cream Reviews

Just okay
As far as I know, this BB cream only exists in two shades: fair and medium. So I have this in medium. The texture of this cream is different, since this was the first BB cream i have ever tried, I did not know what to expect. It has little pears that once they break, it blends in your skin natural color. The color of the cream itself is white, but once applied on the skin it turns colors, so it is fun. It feels light and not greasy on the skin, but it definitely does not do miracles. It does not make your skin perfect, nor more beautiful, but it does offer even coverage and I would even say it moisturizes the skin in a decent way. Recommended? Sure, it might work for you, I know my best friend loves this stuff. Would I buy again? Probably not, since I was not too impressed. — 7 months, 2 weeks agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 1 of 1 people said helpful

Best Drug Store BB!
I have very fair skin and have had a real issue with all the new BB creams that have come out lately. This is the only one that actually matches my skin and gives some decent coverage. The primer properties smooth my skin and make the fine lines look less noticeable, as well as allowing for the rest of makeup to go on smoother and stay longer. I've only been using this for a week, so I can't yet comment on long term results. My only real issue with this product is the lack of an SPF. This won't be a summer pick due to that. — 9 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 4 of 4 people said helpful

Not for sensitive skin! it made my skin very red and spotty. I used this twice and did not use it again. it also made me slightly break out. It's not a true bb cream. — 6 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 2 of 2 people said helpful

Great as primer or alone...
This is my first experience with a BB cream and I have to say that I really like this product! My skin tone is between light and medium so I was a little surprised when the light shade was a little dark for my skin and it has a slight orange undertone. I took off one star because of this. Thankfully I have a face powder that is a little too light, so the combination actually worked beautifully. It was interesting to watch the white cream turn to color as I applied it. I usually use a primer because I have large pores and it also helps with fine lines. I wasn't sure if the BB cream was going to be enough of a primer, but was pleasantly surprised when it left my skin looking smooth and practical flawless! It provides just enough color to even out my skin and cover minor flaws and minimal darkness under the eyes. I think it provides more coverage/color than a tinted moisturizer, but less than a regular foundation. I love the matte finish it gives, that takes down any shine and I don't need to touch up my powder all day long. It's not oily or greasy at all, but allows enough time to blend into the skin and blends very well. I've found it provides enough hydration for my normal skin, but I do think someone would with dry skin may need to consider using a moisturizer first. I've used it on it's own with just powder on top and I've used it under foundation when I've needed more coverage and it works great both ways. If the color match is perfect, I think you could wear it without powder and be very pleased. It's really a great product! The only think I could ask for would be that they will come out with some additional shades. — 4 months, 1 week agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 4 of 4 people said helpful

Good Drug Store BB Cream
Only come in two colors. I chose medium. It comes out white with beads in it, the beads burst when smoothed into the skin. Covers lightly like a tinted moisturizer. Helps bring out the natural beauty in the skin. I can go for a work out and this product will not run or sweat off. I covers the flaws, dark spots, and evens out the face. It's the first BB cream I have tried. I really like the container, product and the price. — 4 months, 3 weeks agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 4 of 4 people said helpful

Blend in well with skin tone
Blend in really well. Weird that the liquid start off with a grey like color then blends into my natural skin tone. This make up made my face look all natural like I wasn't wearing any. Would recommend you to try it. — 2 months, 2 weeks agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

good coverage
It feels a bit grainy and it white when it comes out of the tube. When you rub it in, the color comes through and provides pretty decent coverage, compared to most of the bb creams I have tried. The "light" can be a tad bit orangey, so I use "fair" and it seems to blend in just right. I haven't noticed any long term benefits yet and I have been wearing it for a couple of months. — 2 months, 2 weeks agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Nice, light coverage
I have very fair skin that can be red and blotchy. I don't really need a heavy foundation to even out my skin tone, but up until this product I've felt like that's all that's been available. I think the fair blends into my skin very nicely, my redness is covered and my skin tone is even. My face doesn't look cakey and the coverage seems to last all day in most cases. I've never used a BB cream before, so I wasn't really sure what else to expect from this cream, but so far I have been really happy with the results. — 2 months, 3 weeks agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Nice,but lost it's magic for me.
When I first started using this in late summer months I really liked it, I could put on my sunscreen and this over the top (no SPF included) and it would hold up to hot humid weather and was a good primer. However, come winter the fairest shade was too dark for my fair skin which gets more pale in the winter months here in Wisconsin and it just wasn't working. Also, in winter I need more moisture than this product was providing and though I rarely see the sun in winter I would have preferred a built in SPF for some level of sun protection. Overall I stopped using this mid-winter and switched back to my Aveeno Tinted Moisturizer with SPF 30 and saw a huge change for the better in my skin after a week. This may be a product I would use again in the summer when I don't need the extra moisture and tend to use a separate high SPF but for the majority of the year it just won't work for my skin. — 3 months, 1 week agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Winner.
A friend and I stumbled across this gem at target! In an attempt to buy cheaper products we found this. It is amazing. The more you rub it in the lighter the coverage, the less you rub it in the more coverage you get. It's lightweight and dries beautifully. Matte finish. Isn't tacky or flakey. I really can't believe how amazing this $7.99 bb cream is. Definitely a winner. — 3 months, 2 weeks agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 4 of 4 people said helpful
