L'Oreal Nude Magique BB Cream Review


As previously mentioned, I'm a fan of BB creams, they were originally created as a topical layer of protection for patients who had skin issues, but over time were snaffled by the beauty industry for use by everyday women.
I thought I would try the new product from L'Oreal, I dabble in their products from time to time but find they're usually not a range I go for, but I spotted the range on sale and thought there's no time like the present!
It comes in two shades, but as the product is quite translucent they will cover a wide range of skin-tones, I went for the lighter one and it gave me a slightly darker glow, which will be great for spring and summer! Coverage is really light, I could only tell I was wearing it because I was looking for it but my skin did appear to have more even tone after application.
One thing I found interesting was the texture, when you squeeze a little onto your fingers for application it has an almost grainy feel to it that disappears when you apply it to your face, (After some more research I found out that these are the colour capsules that tint the moisturiser upon application.) The texture is also quite runny despite this. Also I give marks for the great packaging, the tiny little nozzle makes it easy to control how much you use without exposing the unused product to air.
I like to use it on its own on the weekends, the SPF is not quite as strong as I would like it to be though, but it's the sort of product you can throw in your bag for extra applications during the day which helps to nullify the issue.
