Drugstore Product of the Week! BB Creams that Rock!
Sun, 22 Jul 2012PRODUCT REVIEW | MAKEUP
By Huda Heidi Kattan
I have seriously been on a search for a killer BB Cream and I have to say, the drugstore ones I bought are pretty amazing! I do love BB Creams since they help moisturize, heal, and brighten skin while also giving you a flawless complexion, but there are definitely some that are better than others! My two favorite drugstore BB Creams are the Garnier Skin Renew and Maybelline Dream Fresh!
As far as picking one, I definitely liked the Maybelline BB Cream more! It blended better, lasted longer and also had a really pretty bronzey tint to it, which made my skin look really tanned. Both give you a great glow, but the Garnier is a bit thicker and oilier so it gives you a shinier appearance, but I wasn’t crazy about that! The only thing I liked more about Garnier is the color is really true and looks a bit more natural, but still I like the Maybelline more!

SAME QUESTION …..WHERE CAN I FIND IT IN DUBAI??
Garnier is now available in the UAE, but Maybelline, my fav is not yet! As soon as it is here, I will let you guys know!
I like the Korean one, look at http://www.powdermary.com – The jasmine water one is absolutely amazing, when mixed with the gold moisturiser I get the most flawless looking skin ever!
Feefee where can i find the powdermary products in dubai?

Are the BB creams available in the UAE, or did you buy them from abroad?
Can you also try for some asian bramd BB cream? I heard they are far better than the western counterparts. Happy ramadan!
Can i find them in dubai .
Ana yeah is it better than Dior BB cream ?
yeah i am having garnier , its really good. look fresh and no need to put any other make up. its available in australia , any supermarket
I tried the Garnier BB Cream and it didn’t work for me but I really want to give the Maybelline one a try!! Thanks for the review!
Hi there,
Does this give a ghost-white cast in flash photography because of the SPF?
Anyone else tried it and can tell me?
Oh and yes, is it available in the UAE?
Thanks,
Danica
Huda! What colour was the maybelline one?
Really want to try it but not sure which colour to order!!
both were medium/dark
im a nc30 in mac ! and i got the light/medium one. it blends nicely too!. but I do contour with a dark bronzer over sooo that might be why
Yes you get a white cast because the spf is really high. The garnier one has a spf of 15, so it might not give a cast. the maybelline one has spf 30 so its pretty high, I wanted to ask … I know drugstore brands have there own place. but did anyone else like the smashbox or dior one better?
Where can i find powdermary products in duba ….????
how about the smashbox bbs ….if there known for anything its their bb creams…they also have 5 shades…can you do a review on those tell us what you think?

Sehrish …I’m not from UAE but the Maybelline BB Cream is available at http://www.drugstore.com
And I’m picking up that Maybelline BB Cream today. Hope I like it!
Are these BB Creams easy to find in Kuwait? Does anyone know?
Yes!! Garnier is real great work.For more information about Beauty Products Visit at sleekhair Website.
Ok guys…. I’ve never been a makeup freak before…. but I’ve tried and tested the Garnier BB cream..and I can only say one word… FANTABULOUS….
Gals please… do give this a try…. I did and I’m really happy with the results. Why spend a fortune on the big brands, when you can get all the benefits for less?!! I also want to mention that I have mild rosacea and this cream has been a life-saver. It makes my skin look flawless without any irritation and doesn’t cause any further breakouts.
Hats off to you Garnier. Well done.
In my opinion it’s waaay too greasy with not enough pigment, Have you tried the Maybelline BB Cream? It’s far superior as far as absorption in the skin (which is key with a BB Cream) and pigment! It’s actually won numerous awards already, which is pretty awesome! I totally agree about finding a great BB Cream at a great price!
bb cream from garnier doesn’t fit to me
cuz my skin is sensitive .
