THE BODY SHOP TEA TREE FLAWLESS BB CREAM (O1) – First Impression Demo & Review

9:00 AM


 
I tried The Body Shop Tea Tree Flawless BB Cream for the first time and decided, why not film a First Impression Review on it as well. 




According to The Body Shop’s website, this BB cream is intended to “perfect complexion and fight the look of blemishes.” I thought at first, “Great! Exactly what I need because I have acne-prone skin.” It even claims to give flawless coverage while tackling the appearance of blemishes. It also says on the website that its lightweight formula will give a shine-free complexion and that they offer 3 shades which blend seamlessly into all skin tones  for natural-looking coverage.





This 40ml BB cream packaged in a squeezey tube retails for S$29.90. Quite costly, I must say, but if it really does everything it claims it would, then I don’t mind paying 30 bucks. The thing is... IT DIDN'T.


MY THOUGHTS IN BULLETS:


-       I always seem to have a problem opening the tube. It has a very big mouth for squeezy tube so every time I will try to open it, there’s always like an explosion of cream.
-        I don’t like the consistency. It’s very runny/watery for my taste.
-     I strongly disagree with their claims about the coverage. It’s actually a major let down because the coverage is very sheer even with 3 layers (referring to when I applied it using a beauty blender)
-        It’s not buildable probably because of its consistency and its very sheer coverage.
-       The biggest downside is its LACK OF OIL-CONTROL POWER. In just 2 hours, my face is already oily when I actually have an oily-combo type. I normally only get oily on my T-zone area but with this BB cream I got an oily face in just 2 hours. This is even after using my trusty setting powder (Nichido Final Powder).
-     Good thing I got it on sale so I only paid S$10 for it but to be brutally honest, it’s NOT worth the money.
-       My experience with this BB cream could also be due to the fact that I got an old item since I got it on sale last year but I will never know because I don’t have plans of buying this product again.
