I usually use BB creams sparingly. Just because it makes my routine longer and I feel a bit uncomfortable with lots of stuff dabbed on my face. In this unpredictable (tropical) weather of ours.
But again, marketing does get me sometimes. Ehem.
And a roll on bb cream is just too hard to resist. It's affordable too.
The Garnier BB Cream for the eyes.
I prefer using make up brushes for applying anything. The roll on cream for the eyes, no exception. It promises the usual bb cream magic: smoother skin texture, radiance, reduced redness, the works. During normal days I don't do make up, except for a little powder and blush. Yesterday's meeting was a chance to take the bb cream for a test drive.


The "before" photo. Uneven skin tone indeed. Dark circles around the eyes.


The "after" photo. One go across the darkened portion of my eyebags. I decided to blend the cream up to the upper lid and down to the cheeks. Plus a single pat of loose powder. You be the judge.
The redness seemed lessened. Skin lightened, yes. A little bit of magic on the eye area I agree. For it's price of under Php 300, I think I could keep and play with it day to day. Not bad actually. I am naturally (plus the age factor) dry around the eyes up to my brows so I am thankful for the dewy look and feel of the cream . The effect lasted 6 hours. In my book, that is commendable.

I am toying with the idea of using it around my nose, smile lines and chin... we'll see.
