Sanctuary Spa BB Cream Review

Hello guys! i hope that you are all well, today i have for you a new beauty post, and for me it is the first time i have ever tested and used a BB Cream, and i have to say i really liked using it. If you would like to see what i thought of this product, just keep reading...

Whilst out in my local high street i quickly went into Boots to purchase some more makeup wipes, and then when heading back to the till to buy it, this product caught my eye and i stopped and had a look at what it was. When reading the packaging the first thing i noticed was that it was a BB Cream and then much to my amazement i realised that it was from the Sanctuary Spa. Now i have only known this company to do bath and and skin care products, but i have never known them to be doing beauty products. I thought that i would see what it is all about and if it is any good, because i have had some of their skin care products before and i loved them, so  i really hoped that this would make a good impression as well.

I have never owned a BB Cream before so i thought that this may be a good time to try one out. I really liked that packaging on the box and on the tube its self, the silver writing against the white and green packaging really catches the eye and is really pretty. The one i bought says that it is in the shade 'medium to dark', this was something that i became unsure of, because i didn't know whether it would match my skin tone. sadly this was the only shade left on the shelfs, so i took a chance and bought this shade and really prayed that it matched.

Since buying it i have worn it a couple of times, and have found that i really had nothing to worry about when it came to matching my skin tone. At first i tested it on my hand to see if it blended out ok and if it was the right colour. It felt really soft after it settled and i found that it made my skin feel really smooth, as if i had applied primer to it before hand. So i decided to apply this to my face and found that it also worked just as well. After applying and making sure that it was all blended out properly, i applied the rest of my make up such as blush, mascara, i did my eyebrows and a bit of highlight and contour and i was done for the day.

I really like this product, it is really smooth and it lats well all day, and for me an all day is from 7 till 6. It did not get too oily or make me feel really dry. What i did find is that it is very fragranced and has a string smell to it, for me i did not mind too much, but if you are someone who doesn't like that this may not be for you. But besides that i really like this product and would recommend it to anyone looking to try out a new cream, or are looking for a foundation alternative.

Thank you for reading todays post, i hope that you have enjoyed reading it, till next time...
