Makeup Review: Maybelline BB Cream

I'm a little late to the party when it comes to trying out BB Creams. They've been a popular product for a while now and I never tried one because I wasn't all that interested in them, but recently I've been wanting to wear something lighter than a traditional foundation but I still wanted to even out my skin tone and eliminate redness.

I did a bit of research online and settled on trying out a drugstore one because I didn't want to spend a lot, and they're easier to get ahold of. After looking at reviews I settled on trying out the Maybelline BB Cream because it had decent reviews and was the cheapest one I could find, so that's a plus.

I fell in love with this product after only once use. The coverage was decent and I liked the finish. It also didn't leave me oily at the end of the day which was nice. I was sold. However after probably a week of wearing it every day I noticed that I was breaking out in places I don't normally, like on my cheeks. I'm not 100% sure it was due to the BB Cream but since I hadn't changed up anything else in my routine I think this might be the culprit.

I'll probably still use this every once and a while, but since my skin doesn't like it very much it isn't going to be my holy grail BB Cream. I'd say give it a try if you're curious because it is a good product, just be weary of the fact that it might break you out.
