I am loving my new bb cream :)

Although I have only seen myself in artificial light as it's dark outside so hopefully it's OK in natural light tomorrow.
But so far in this light I look younger (I think so though no one else in my house does) very dewy.
I got the medium and it was so dark and I am very olive - DH said am I going for the tango look. So I got the light which seems OK but in daylight if it's too light I will mix the two together.
Please let it look the same in the morning light Grin

OK gush over, I'm away to look in the mirror.

Maybe should say it's the Garnier one (I'm sure it's not Loreal can't remember box is upstairs, it's the cheap one anyway)

Explain what bb is please?

It stands for blemish balm, very big in Korea it was apparently first used to soothe people who had had a chemical peel (I think it's something like that) it's supposed to be moisturiser, primer, foundation etc all in one you just rub it in and it evens out your skin and covers bit like foundation. Can't remember why it's called blemish balm!
Gives a nice dewy look. Bit like tinted moisturiser although I have never used tinted moisturiser (except to mix my foundation with my moisturiser but bb seems to cover more).

I look much better than I expected (in this light) but I don't look as good as I hoped, although nothing short of surgery will make me look as good as I hope.

I'm not used to the dewy look am too used to looking cakey so I'm thinking I could brush on some loose powder. Not actually sure if I look dewy like I think I do maybe I just look greasy...

DH still says the light shade is too dark - no idea how that can be I am so not light skinned, more like Italian skin. Maybe he's not used to me looking so young and dewy Grin
