Most Helpful Positive Review My saving grace I just got this a week ago because my incredibly oily skin and 80 degrees with humidity DO NOT go well together. I've looked and looked for years to try to find something that works whether it was primer, powder, setting spray, foundation, you name it. A friend recommended this BB cream to me and I got it because it was cheap. Turns out it was everything I was looking for. Awesome coverage to hide acne and acne scars as well as blendable and a smooth soft matte finish. Couldn't be happier Covergirl, props to you :)))
Most Helpful Critical Review Mixed Feelings This product is actually pretty good. It keeps me matte, it's lightweight, has a high medium coverage, and blends really well with a beauty blender. I would love to give it 5 stars however I'm really disappointed with the shade range. I have light skin with a more yellow undertone so I picked up the shade "Light" but it has a more pink undertone so my face ended up looking pink. I then picked up the shade "Light/Medium" because it looked like it had a more yellow undertone but when applied, it looked orange. Covergirl, PLEASE add more yellow toned shades! Actually, not just yellow toned shades but more deep shades as well! This product is so good but not everyone can use it because of the shade range. :(
Reviewed by 2499 customers Great for oily/combo skin! 4
Lex from North Carolina
I don't typically wear heavy makeup; I just wear eyeliner, mascara, and fill in my brows. However, I have been having major breakouts, and I have oily to combination skin depending on the season, but definitely lean more oily on a typical basis. So, I found this at Ulta and it was discounted, but I like it a lot, it doesn't have a ton of staying power with masks (reason for 4 stars instead of 5), but it cuts down on my oiliness and evens out my skin tone pretty well.
Favorite For Every Day But Terrible Shade Range 4
Emilie from Napa, CA
I love this as a daily foundation for my oily/combination skin. Although this is marketed as a BB cream, I enjoy using it in place of a foundation since I can build it up to medium coverage. Powder products look nice on top of this since it's a matte finish but maintains a nice natural look. The reason for giving this four stars instead of five is due to the absolutely abysmal shade range. I understand that this is a BB cream and not a foundation, but it definitely has enough pigment to need 3X the amount of current shades. I'm really hoping for Covergirl to expand the shades in the future.
Great cruelty free option 5
Ruby from Chicago
I was looking for a bb cream that was lightweight but ultimately vegan and cruelty free. This was actually a great product. It doesn't feel heavy or too oily. I would definitely recommend it to everyone
Love it!!!!! 5
Bakersfield Betty from Bakersfield Ca
Absolutely I'm in love with this product. Gave up my high priced foundation entirely. It's a bb cream that also can act as a medium to full coverage foundation. My skin is extremely sensitive and this makes my skin feel good. It has even improved my skins texture. Allows it to look smooth and covers flaws without being caky. Goes on smooth like a lotion and a little goes a long way. I only build it up in my troubled areas and it is seamless to other areas where it is applied more sparingly.
Current Favorite BB Cream 4
JL from Texas
This is a great BB cream. I have pretty dry skin and have struggled with regular foundations as of late. I was recommended this and it blends well into my skin and lasts all day.
Worst BB cream I've ever tried 1
Linds from Orlando
This BB cream made me break out so bad. I'm so disappointed in this product and I will never purchase from this brand again.
Amazing!!! 5
frankie from atlanta
just got it in the mail and wore it all day. it didn't smear and it was the perfect match. absolutely love and will be buying again
I will definitely repurchase! 5
Nettle from Nebraska
I bought this in the 510 shade. I squeezed it out of the tube onto my face (primed) in dots and used a brush to disperse. Its got a decent coverage but I did apply a little bit more to my problem areas to cover up some blemishes. It set in a few minutes and I did not need to use a powder. This feels like I'm not wearing makeup and has a natural skin like appearance. I was able to blend Holika Holika Jelly Dough Blush on top of it with no problems. Powder bronzer and highlight also blended nicely over it.
Ohkay bb cream 3
Jen from Michigan
Personally this is my option two. I have to mix two colors of cover girl to get my right neck/face color. It Wears a little oily by the end of the day. I find it does give me a random zit once in a blue moon on my neck. I mainly use use this for color correction to match my neck to my face. ( I personally like the Maybelline BB cream better because it has 2% Salicylic acid in it and prevents breakouts)
Great BB cream for ALL skin types 5
Megan H from Michigan
This is a great bb cream that is very versatile. If you have oily skin, match this with primer and setting powder and you are good to go all day without it breaking apart or getting cakey at all. If you have dry skin, pair this with a glowy primer/setting spray and it will give you a long lasting glow without drying out the skin. The product applies smoothly to the skin, has a semi-matte finish without drying the skin, and hangs on beautifully throughout the day. My only issue with the product is the very much lacking shade range.
Texture and creasing problems are aweful 2
Hutch from Kentucky
Not for a person who expresses there emotions on their face. The coverage on this foundation is ok but the texture when dried is powdery at best. It is fast drying though. I'll give it that but the texture and creasing problems could be better.
Perfection 5
Raven from North Carolina
I love this BB cream so much! I don't like the way most foundations feel, and this doesn't feel heavy at all. It's lightweight, blurs imperfections, and I'd say it gives good medium coverage. It also lasts all day with minimal touch ups. I will continue to buy this forever and cry if they ever discontinue it.
Love! 5
Peyton from Ohio
This is a great, light weight cream. It covers my redness and looks nice all day.
Makes me feel so good 5
Abby from Cleveland
I have a pretty uneven skin tone and I've tried so many different creams, powders, and foundations. This is the only thing so far that has evened out my skin tone. I absolutely love it. Makes my face look so smooth and my skin so healthy!
My Go-To BB Cream 4
Belle from Michigan
I usually buy more expensive foundations, but this BB cream compares really well. I've repurchased it twice because I feel like it's the best lightweight cream with a nice coverage. It looks really good when blended out with a damp beauty blender. My only gripe is that their shade range could be better. I'm pretty light skinned but I still have some color and the lightest shade of this is still a tad dark for me.
loved it, but caused breakouts 4
Erica from Chicago, IL
I had been looking for a great BB cream that worked well but was also on the cheaper side, then I found this and decided to try on impulse. I was surprised at how well it worked....at first. After about a week of wearing it a few days in a row, I started to break out. I noticed this pattern every time I went back to try using it again, and it always caused breakouts if I wore it more than 2 days in a row. However, I learned it wasn't the quality of the product, just that I have very sensitive skin and have to splurge on prestigious brands for my face makeup.
However, before I gave it up, I loved it! This was an amazing BB cream - I usually just applied with my fingers, and it always blended flawlessly with a natural, matte finish and the coverage was pretty good! I had some acne scarring when I was using this (that was about 2 years ago and scars have since faded) so I was so surprised at how well this BB cream covered my scars and I didn't need to apply additional concealer or foundation! I would say the coverage level was medium-full. Great product. Wish I could buy and use again. I would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a great BB cream who's skin is used to the drug store products!
Worked very well with my oily skin!!! 5
Rockyroad88 from New Orleans, LA
I have a very oily t-zone, cheeks are somewhat normal. I recently started taking my skin care seriously with face wash, serums (btw niacinamide does wonders for oily skin) and moisturizers, morning and night. I still have large pores and blackheads so I needed something to help cover it. Im not a HUGE makeup person. Im pretty basic. So I wanted something for everyday wear; had to feel light on my skin, with decent coverage. This BB cream is perfect! It has JUST enough coverage that it left my skin matt, smooth, and covered my pores, without looking like I was wearing makeup...if that makes sense? I also bought the Covergirl Clean Matt pressed powder and that as a finishing powder made it that much better. It wasn't often but I still had to maintain the oil throughout the day with oil blot sheets. I also used the powder for random touch-ups. Overall, I thought the BB cream worked very well with my oily skin. Felt so much better than wearing full blown heavy foundation. This is definitely my new go-to bb cream!!
A must buy 5
Sam from Middletown, Connecticut
I have bought this BB cream time after time. I have suffered from bad acne for years. Hyperpigmentation, acne scars, you name it. I have always wore foundation to hide these imperfections (I am not ashamed of them but I do enjoy wearing makeup!) however, I was getting tired of how cakey my face felt. Especially in the summer time. I came across this product and after the first time using it, I never went back to foundation ever again. The coverage is perfect for me. It is so beyond lightweight and breathable. It is such a good product, especially considering the price. I've tried the it cosmetics CC cream as well and that was around $30.00 however it was just too heavy on my face and I hate the feeling of my face feeling cakey. This bb cream is an absolute game changer. Please do not hesitate to buy.
Love this product 5
Jessthemess from Loveland, CO
Works just as well as regular foundation. I applied primer and then just used my hands to apply this product, and it worked well. Not as full coverage as foundation but I didn't need full coverage.
Awful texture & doesn't blend 1
Sam from Louisville, KY
This BB cream seems to sit on top of my skin and doesn't blend well at all with other products. I've tried using a beauty blender, a foundation brush, and my hands and nothing seems to do the trick. Streaky, cakey, and just feels gross on my skin.
The Best 5
Micah from Denver
This is my absolute favorite bb cream! Great coverage all on its own, really keeps the shine down and I have really oily skin. I'm on my third bottle. I love this stuff.
Love this product!! 5
Taylor from North Carolina
I do not like foundation, or feeling like there is anything heavy on my face. This BB cream is AMAZING! It settles nicely and feels like a naked face. It has good coverage, without the weight of a foundation. I wish, however, there were more shade options. It seems like my skin is between 2 shades, which is a little frustrating.
Amazing 5
Lace from NJ
This is perfect for when you don't want to wear a heavy foundation. I usually wear it every day unless I'm going out somewhere and want full coverage. It is light weight but still evens out my skin tone and hides minor blemishes
Lightweight 4
Itscyndo from Los Angeles, CA
I'm very excited about this product because I deal with rosacea and I don't like to have a full face on everyday. It is lightweight and easy to apply. I'm not a fan of the smell but the scent didn't bother me at all when I had it on. The reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because it was difficult to navigate the shades. I think the shades are all over the place and there is a limited amount. Other than that it is a nice product.
good for summer 5
B from Wisconsin
I like using this in the summer for light to medium coverage. The finish looks really nice. I have combination skin and I stay matte throughout the day with this and a setting powder. My only complaint is that I wish it came in a lighter shade, it is a bit too dark for me.
