Dior nudeskin bb cream - review and swatches!


Hey there sparkle people!

So for those of you who do not know what a bb cream is - it is a beauty balm. A bb cream is a combination of a moisturiser, spf and foundation - an all in one cream for someone who is not fond of piling layers of makeup onto their faces! It has new variations - a cc cream, and now even a dd cream. 

Now to the Diorskin Nude bb cream! I have used about 4-5 bb creams but I havent quite found the perfect "cant-live-without" formula. I heard so much about the Diorskin bb cream that i decided to give it a try. 
At first, it seemed like the bb cream would definately not suit my complexion as the second darkest shade - 003 seemed so light(It was the darkest they had in the store)!
As you can see, when i blended it in it suited my complexion perfectly. 

*Quick tip* Try your creams on your chin. Your hand might be a different shade and you might not be able to try it on your face in the shop! Your chin will give you the perfect idea!

Back to the bb cream - The Diorskin Nude bb cream feels like a lightweight foundation with a very sheer finish. Its definitely the perfect cream for a natural look. It has an additional advantage of an spf 10. It moisturises your face well too. The only 2 disadvantages i found are that it does not have too many darker shades so it might be a little difficult to find your shade. Also, being a dior product, it is pretty pricey so lets just hope it lasts long!

Overall, i loved the fact that it had all the features of a bb cream and yet felt so light on the skin! It also lasted quite a few hours. 
You could just wear the bb cream with a light dusting of powder and you have got the perfect everyday face!

Do wait for my next post on different bb creams!
Until then, PEACE.LOVE.BEAUTY!
