Review ~ Rimmel BB cream Radiance


 Rimmel BB cream Radiance, $12.95 

Where to buy in Australia: Priceline, Chemist Warehouse, Target 


I have been on the hunt for a BB cream for days that I don’t feel like wearing a full face of makeup. I recently tried the BB stay matte cream but unfortunately I was not impressed. I then decided to try this BB cream by Rimmel as I do love their products and I instantly fell in love!

Summary...

  • Lightweight natural coverage
  • Built in primer
  • Shea butter to moisturise and hydrate for up to 24 hours
  • Vitamin C Complex to brighten
  • Concealing properties to reduce the appearance of blemishes
  • SPF20 for protection
  • 3 shades – very light, light, medium


About...

There isn’t a huge colour selection for this BB cream but the majority of skin tones will be able to find their shade there is a very light, light, and medium shade. I purchased the light shade (see swatch below)

This product can be purchased from many stores including, Priceline,Big W, Target, K-Mart, Woolworths, Coles, Chemist Warehouse and I’m sure many more stores. I purchased mine from Priceline for $12.95 and you can usually find this on sale for even cheaper!

Application, Finish and Longevity...

I use my fingers to apply this BB cream to my face face and then blend in with my beauty blender. It’s so easy and quick and the result is still flawless!

This BB cream is not completely dewy and not matte I would say it’s more of a satin finish. Coverage wise this BB cream has a light –medium coverage which is buildable to a medium coverage. On days where I would like more of a medium – full coverage I add in one pump of my Covergirl 3 in 1 foundation and it works perfectly and still feels light and looks radiant on the skin.

The lasting power of this product is pretty amazing and does have a primer included! I did also set mine with a powder so that may have helped the longevity of this product. I have been wearing it for about 8 hours (to work for a full day) and it has lasted really well until it started to fade a little around my forehead and chin.

Final thoughts...

Overall I think this product is amazing for a BB cream! It feels hydrating on the skin, feels lightweight and as the name suggests is radiant and is great for an everyday natural radiant look. For the price I would really recommend checking this product out and you can always wait until Priceline have their sales to purchase this product for even less if you are unsure!
