COVERGIRLSmoothers Lightweight BB Cream, Fair to Light 805, 1.35 oz (Packaging May Vary) Lightweight Hydrating 10-In-1 Skin Enhancer with SPF 21 UV Protection

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Covergirl brand has been around for a long time. Good product, great price! Affordable. Covers and blends well, SPF protection, color match was right on, easy to apply. A small amount goes a long ways.

I don't like makeup and I rarely ever wear it. But now that I'm in my mid-40s, I'm realizing I need to do better with skincare, so I was looking for a moisturizer with SPF and came across several of the tinted BB creams. After reviewing several, I decided to give this one a try as the pictures of people using the "Light to Medium" seemed to have a similar skin tone as I do.The "Light to Medium" shade perfectly matches my skin. No one can tell that I have this on, unlike with other makeup. My partner and friends had no idea until I told them and they said they couldn't tell.I am really happy with it so far! I've been using it for two days and I can feel how soft my skin is. The coverage is very light, so it's not going to do major color correction, but it does seem like it gives my skin a nice glow and covers up some lighter marks on my face (not freckles, moles or darker spots). Once it dries, I can touch my face and not feel like a bunch of makeup is coming off on my fingers, which is one of the things I dislike about wearing a non-powder foundation.Yesterday, I put the moisturizer on twice as I was going to be out in the sun for a couple of hours and didn't want to get sun burned. I was contemplating putting a different evening cream after my shower, but my skin was still so soft from using the CoverGirl moisturizer twice that I didn't even bother with the night cream.I do have an oily T-Zone, so if I notice any major breakouts or anything weird, I'll come back and update this review, but so far, I really love this product and will buy more of it. :)

I use this BB cream for sun protection and makeup. This is my 4th purchase. It has a light and creamy texture and blends smoothly.

Like you, I was searching for a less heavy foundation to wear every day–you know, something that still has minimal to light coverage but doesn't look too 'heavy baked.'Amazon of course recommend me to two products: (1) CG Smoothers and (2) CG Clean Matte BB Creams. So I bought both and compared, so you don't have to...Please note, I'm a 30 year old mom still suffering will occasional breakouts and uneven skintone. Nothing new, just life...I normally wear the following;- Revlon Colorstay foundation in 150, Buff,- Revlon Colorstay Powder in 830, light/medium- Maybelline FitMe Powder in 110, Porcelain1) CG Smoothers- 805 Fair to LightThe consistency of this product is really smooth and light, more moisturising than tinting. Very light coverage, a little goes a long way, but also doesn't feel heavy on your face. I love that the color is true and doesnt oxydize. You definitely however need a setting powder to refresh every now and again. (4.5/5 stars)2)CG Clean Matte BB Creams.It's a very dense BB cream, it's similar consistency to sunscreen, heavy. It also has a very heavy sunscreen odor to it too. However it's medium coverage and very matte—keeping your face shine free all day.It's not very blendable, and you need a lot of product. Please note: this product does oxydize and gets darker. (3/5 stars)

If you are reading reviews I assume that means you are thinking of trying this and I say do it! You don’t have much to lose and look how many live this. I’m almost 70 and I’ve used this for at least 10 years. I’m also a sucker for the ads that show expensive brands promising wrinkles and imperfections will disappear. I’ve spent quite a bit trying them only to not like them, either they are heavy and actually emphasize wrinkles and pores, or the color is off or I break out. This inexpensive brand looks natural and coverage can be a bit heavier if you go over problem areas after the first application. I am very fair, wear the light to medium. If you’re on the fence, buy two colors! The spf is effective. I was out in bright direct sun for several hours and no burn.

It's always hit or miss ordering makeup online, especially foundations and similar products. I really studied the charts and tried to find a shade that would work, even going lighter than what I thought might be my shade. It looks like a nice formula, I tried it both on my face and my arm; it blends well, is non-irritating and everything. But it is way too red for my olive skin. I'm not super olive, but I think I will avoid CoverGirl complexion products in future because I can tell they will all just be too red. Great company, though and I think this would have made me happy if I could get the right colour.

I love that it is not heavy, provides good coverage and has spf in it

My favorite tinted sunscreen moisturizer! Not very thick. Doesn't provide a ton of coverage, but it smooths things out a little and provides protection from the sun! Wore it at Disney world for 3 days and didn't get burnt at all!
