Unless I'm just not using it correctly? Any tips, anyone?

I think the BB phenomenon will fizzle out pretty quickly. Originally developed to use following cosmetic procedures, I think every cosmetics company from high end to high street, has jumped on the bandwagon.

I've found them either orange, too shiny or (the Dr Jart+) one, grey and death mask-ish. I've returned to my SPF 50 and Dior Nude Skin with blush. Far simpler!

Sorry, bit of a rant and I think you're probably using it correctly, it's just that they're not that good.

Yes I totally agree it either barely comes out of tube or loads comes out and it doesn't do anything at all. I got it on offer for £6 but still a waste of money.

Thanks fellow MN-ers, glad it's not just me.

If you are considering this in Boots today, even on the 3-for-2, walk away and choose something else! Smile

Pure BB cream - wonderful and can be found in Savers for only £1.99. I really prefer it over foundation, it's less "fake" looking on me.

I get my BB cream from Home Bargains, £1.99 and its lovely. Not sure of the brand but it looks like the Garnier one with the green circle. It isn't but looks really similar.
