Ok, this stuff is legit
& I cannot wait to see the hoards of designer products that follow in good
ole Jergens’ footsteps. I am using the
“medium-deep” formula because I couldn’t find the “fair” one on shelves
anywhere. I do think the “fair” would
suit my needs better as my main issue is redness (i.e. blood vessels and
capillaries) & apparently that formula is more geared towards the spectrum
of redness control but, the “deep” formula has been quite lovely too.
I waited 5 days to get
the full effect before posting my review & while the results aren’t amazing
they most definitely are significant.
This formula essentially blurs all imperfections and makes them far less
obvious. It also adds a hint of sheen to
your skin which gives you a subtle luminous look. It comes out of the tube pinkish in color w a
hint of shimmer but instantly disappears on your skin – it doesn’t dirty up
cuticles like Jergens’ Glow products or self tanner do and I’ve actually liked
how it has made my hands look less red and more even toned. I’m a former sun worshipper and I have spent
a ton of money, time & effort trying to undo damage from my younger and
less wiser years (I’m like a wise wizard now)… Now, I in all honesty have
actually learned to love my pale skin BUT pale skin requires maintenance. There are veins, bruises, dark spots, red
patches, marks from shaving, scars, and all kinds of shit that makes pale skin
look messy, unkempt and not so healthy whereas if you’re tan all that “shit” is
just kind of hidden behind a veil of dark albeit damaged brown skin.
I’m liking best what a
difference this BB cream has made on my chest (where even laser therapy
couldn’t correct all my sun spots) and on my legs as I see them a lot in my
barre and yoga classes and am usually appalled by their appearance this time of
year. I feel like all my imperfections are
way less imperfect & when I tried on a bikini in my bathroom the other
night I felt pretty confident about my pale ass self too. Fist pump.
Buy this and immediately boost your skin insecurities! I feel like come Spring I’ll be slathering on
WAY less self tanner this year.
Also of note, I swear
this cream actually smells fresh & nice!
