The Face Shop FACE it Power Perfection BB Cream

Summer is the time to go on that spur of the moment road trip, enjoy an ice cream cone and wear your favorite sunglasses everywhere to beat the city heat. It's also the time to check if your beauty essentials protect you from the sun.  
  

I present to you: The Face Shop FACE it Power Perfection BB Cream

“A total skin treatment reenergizing the skin through power lifting, power moisturization and power correcting effects. Wrinkle Improvement + Whitening + Sunscreen with an airy touch formula that adheres in a thin layer as light as air yet flawlessly covers skin blemishes for a lustrous, healthy skin appearance.”

   

I use The Face Shop FACE it Power Perfection BB Cream every single day, whether I plan to wear makeup or not. And with SPF 37, it's perfect for the summertime!

Beauty Boost

• I only need a small amount for my face and neck area.
• It blends evenly on my skin. No gray cast like most BB creams with SPF.
• No need for foundation or to apply with a stippling brush. Clean fingers will do!
• Feels very light and makes for smooth powder application.
• BB creams that come in a pump bottle are definitely more hygienic.
• Very cute and sturdy purple packaging.

 
Beauty Boo

• The formula is a little on the fluid side. Though it doesn't immediately melt off your face, I wish it had more lasting power. But it's nothing a little powder can't take care of!
• Has light to medium coverage so you'll still need a concealer to cover up any blemishes.
• Can't really comment on its wrinkle-fighting properties but I didn't become visibly fairer though its a whitening BB cream.
• Not sure how much more is left since you can't open the container to check.

I've been using The Face Shop FACE it Power Perfection BB Cream since October 2012 and though I can't see how much more product is left in the container, my friend who recommended it said hers lasted for more than half a year. Even though my face didn't necessarily become lighter, I don't exactly mind since you can use it both for skin care and as a makeup base. I bring this when I go on a trip so it's been road tested for summer. It looks awesome even under the sun! No need to confine it to a single season, The Face Shop FACE it Power Perfection BB Cream is definitely a keeper!
