My views:

I came across this product at the supermarket and bought it just to give it a try. Long before I started blogging I've tried out almost all cream variants from Fair & Lovely range and all of them disappointed me. I decided to give this BB cream a try since its is priced cheaply and so there was no harm in trying.

This BB cream is packed in a cute tube having a nozzle. It can be easily carried around. It has a nice fragrance which goes away upon application. Since I have oily skin, I didn't have much trouble in blending this cream. Upon blending, it does make the skin look bright and matte. My skin was oily free for around 3 hours. It also contains SPF 15. 

The only good thing about this cream is that it gives an instant fair look. That's it. This cream contains parabens so i won't be purchasing this ever again. I also noticed clogged pores and whiteheads after using this BB cream for only 2 days. It also broke me out. 

I feel this cream won't work well for oily as well as dry skin. Also only fair skin can carry off this BB cream as it leaves a white cast on the skin. It doesn't cover up dark spots and blemishes either.

In conclusion, I would say this product is a big failure.

Pros:

1. Cost effective pricing

2. Cute and travel friendly packaging

3. Contains SPF 15

4. Gives a matte finish which is ideal for oily skin

5. Instant fair look

6. Easily available

Cons:

1. Not suitable for dry skin

2. Leaves a white cast on skin

3. Clogs pores

4. Causes breakouts

5. Doesn't cover up dark spots and blemishes

6. Only suits fair skin tone

7. Contains parabens

Rating: I would rate this product 1/5
