So it's a pretty well known fact that LOTS of beauty bloggers (and their mums) have tried Dr Jart's Water Fuse Beauty Balm. I joined the party a little late, I know. I snapped it up in Boots when it was on offer, and have been loving it ever since. Admittedly, I am NOT a BB girl; I usually find them far too light and slightly greasy.
My allegiance to foundation may have be compromised after trying this however. It is quite honestly the best BB cream I have used to date. I would not go as far to say I prefer it to foundation, (because I will always be a Dior Forever sort of girl) but it is definitely a nice alternative for when I want a lighter coverage base (usually when I am just staying in or popping out for a few hours) or when I want that 'my skin but better' look...Because that's the thing about BB creams, no matter how good they are, I usually find they are reserved for the days when your skin is looking its best; if not I always reach for a foundation with better coverage and staying power.
The BB cream itself is a lovely creamy formula which looks great buffed on with a real techniques brush. It has a light coverage (but better than any other BB cream I have used) and leaves you with a glowy, natural finish. Because of this, if you have oily or combination skin like myself, I would say you have to powder it or it may come off a little greasy. I have really enjoyed using this and the fact that it has an SPF makes it an all-round winner for me.
Have you tried Dr Jart's BB cream? Are there any other BB creams you love?

Thank you for the review - I've never actually heard of this brand, but will have a look next time I am in Boots. x
ReplyDeleteI haven't actually tried any other Dr Jart products, but their BB creams (4 to the range) are supposed to all be amazing :)
DeleteI never tried it before, but know I really think it's worth trying it!

I tend to go for foundations ad I haven't really joined the whole BB Cream-hype quite yet. x
ReplyDeleteThis is what I was/am like too, but this is a really good one to go for if you wanted to try BB creams :)
DeleteI've heard so much about this recently and I definitely need to check it out, I'm not a massive BB cream fan, but this sounds great

is it good for sensitive skin too?
ReplyDeleteAs it is water-based, I would guess so! It is also fragrance free too. If you have super sensitive skin may be best to swatch a little on your hand first and see :)
DeleteNice post - my sister has been raving about this too! Think I'd bette put this in my shopping basket later this week. Newest follower here. Look forward to reading more reviews from you chick Love Laura x A Scottish Lass
