Review (4/5): Transfer resistant formula 😷 with excellent coverage! Unlike any BB cream I've ever tried!
The Fromnature BB cream by Cosmocos is unlike any beauty balm I've ever tried. It has much better coverage, and a thicker consistency than any other BB's I've used (which, until now, have all been Western brands). It almost covers like a foundation, but feels extremely lightweight like a BB. It does dry down really fast, and it was a bit darker than I expected. I am light neutral in complexion and chose the shade "light beige". I believe I was able to make the color work for me, but I'm not sure if it'll suit all light skin tones. 👻
This BB has a beautiful satin matte finish, but did have a tendency to cling to my dry patches, so be sure to start with an exfoliated, well moisturized, and primed face. I did not use any primer with this product, (since it's marketed as a BB cream), and without the aid of a pore filling primer this product did eventually settle into my fine lines & large pores. I am really impressed with the staying power of this product though, even without primer & setting spray! After a full day of masking against covid in the South Florida heat, there was no transfer to my face mask. 😃 That's a huge, HUGE plus! With that being said, I highly recommend using a really good cleanser to efficiently remove this product at the end of the day.
PROS:
+ Great coverage that can be built up
+ Very lightweight on the skin
+ Excellent staying power
+ SPF 50
+ Transfer resistant! 🙌
+ No photo flashback!
+ Fragrance free!
+ 1.67 oz of product (vs. the U.S. standard 1 fl. oz)
+ 2 sample hair care products included as a bonus! ❤
+ Convenient PRIME Shipping
CONS:
- Dries very fast and can be difficult to blend
- Clings to dry patches
- Settles into pores & wrinkles (without primer)
TO BE CONSIDERED:
* Warm yellow undertone may not suit everyone
Side Note: There was one other thing I wanted to mention... When I took the manufacturer safety seal off of the tube, I had a volcanic eruption of BB cream that I wasn't prepared for, which made a mess of my tube. If you're like me and don't want to waste precious product, just be aware that it might come spilling out like lava when you break the product seal. 🙃
