Estée Lauder Double Wear All Day Glow BB Moisture Makeup SPF 30

This Classic Dark Blue and Gold box with the standard Estee Lauder Logo houses a 30ml slim-line tube with a gold lid.  Very classy packaging.  The lid is a screw on and allows the tube to stand on its top, which is something I always like, as it makes it so much easier when you are getting near the end of a product.  The tube is plastic and that, along with its slim design makes this product perfect for travel.  You can be safe with the knowledge that the lid won't pop open either.  This product gets a huge plus for the packaging. The product itself is 30 SPF which is pretty good for a BB Cream.  That being said, I tend to use a sunscreen on its own anyway, so for me the 30 SPF contained in this product is like extra Sun Protection Insurance.  The BB Cream smooths on effortlessly and with 6 shades available instead of the usual 1 or 2 that most other brands have, it makes it easy to find a shade to suit your colouring.  For me  it was shade 2.0 which I found to be perfect, not just close enough or that will do, but perfect.  At the end of the day my look was still fresh and the vibrant glow remained without any oily zones to worry about.  The product was easily removed with my usual double cleanse routine. I love that this product contains Vitamins E and C to help care for my skin, so while I know my skin is looking great it is also being looked after. If you are looking for a product that will really enhance your look, then this product is very much worth the splurge.

I really love this bb cream, it has a smooth texture and applies really well. I am still hesitant to use this cream too much, because of the price, but when I wear it to reserved occasions, I feel radiant and confident. I apply this with a beauty blender or my fingers and then I finish with a concealer, which gives me a bright complexion. I really value this cream because it works well with my oily skin, to create a glow that doesn't look too oily. I would recommend this awesome cream for people who value their complexion enough to splash with the cash - because it's totally worth it!

BB creams are all the rage right now and in my opinion Estee Lauder's products are some of the best on the market. Estee Lauder Double Wear All-Day Glow BB Moisture Makeup is no exception. The first BB cream to be released by Estee Lauder is just beautiful, in my opinion needing only a little room for improvement. Let's start with the colour range: All-Day Glow BB Moisture Makeup comes in six shades ideal for most skin types but it is important to know they are pink-based. What does this mean to you? Well most makeup artists tend to prefer yellow-based foundations because they appear more natural on the skin whereas pink-based foundations can make skin appear dull, tired and dare I say sick. Personally I too avoid pink based foundations from my own personal experience and as my skin throws warm tones I was left with a beautiful foundation that failed to flawlessly match my skin tone. Whilst only I would have probably been the only one to notice this, I was sure to press a yellow-based powder over the foundation to set the look and colour correct the application. BB Moisture Makeup really does hydrate skin thanks to its lovely fluid formula which blends over skin with ease and sets nicely to a satin finish and is perfect for those seeking light to medium coverage. Although I don't need to cover my skin, on work days I like to achieve a medium/full coverage. All-Day Glow BB Moisture Makeup is best suited to a medium coverage at most and I discovered that by adding more can make this BB cream ball up and separate. The formula lasts all day long but requires a touch up though the day to ensure skin stays looking fresh and its scent is soft, subtle and barely there. If All-Day Glow BB Moisture Makeup was to appear in yellow-based shades and offered fuller coverage then I would purchase it without hesitation, but if you are not as picky with your foundation/BB creams I would certainly still recommend and rate it highly - I am just choosy with foundation because to me a good base is everything. Skin certainly feels hydrated through ongoing wear of this product but I still urge you to use a skincare routine as you would. All-Day Glow BB Moisture Makeup receives a round of applause for offering an SPF 30+ coverage because this is a must-have attribute for health-conscious women and for offering a varied range of shades for a good majority of skin tones. From fair to dark, Estee Lauder is known for embracing cultural diversity whereas many brands only offer 2-3 shades in a BB cream.
