Hey, I'm back with a new post!! I know, I promised to update every week but I have to pack all my shaff and it is soooo stressful and takes all my time ㅠ.ㅠ Anyway, I'm here to share with you my new review lovely sponsored by ibuybeauti ^^
As you probubly know I'm addicted to base makeup. I’m always in search for the perfect foundation and concealer. So that’s why I decided to try a new Aritaum Full Cover line. In this post I’m going to review Aritaum Full Cover BB Cream in #2 Natural Beige.
Description
Packaging
The bb cream comes in a squeezing tube with a small hole which is helpful because it is easier to control the amount of product that comes out. The package is simple but I like how modern it looks and also the print on the back caught my eye from the very beginning. Big plus is that it gives you a great amount of product, 50 ml, so I think it will last me a pretty long time.
Texture
If you ever had bb creams you should probably know that most of them are pretty thick. But this bb cream is not as thick as many other ones, it melts really easily and blends out very nicely. It doesn’t accentuate dry areas and patches badly. It is also very light and you don’t feel it as a mask on your face. Of cause you feel it but not something crazy.
Shade
There are only 2 shades: Light Beige and Natural beight and I have the second one. It is a beige color with a pink undertone and after blending it seems a little bit greyish. But after setting it adapts to your skin color and the gray cast vanishes.
The most surprising fact is that the color of bb cream is not similar to the color of concealer! This ‘Natural Beige’ is more pink while the concealer’s ‘Natural Beige’ has a bright yellow tone. BUT after setting you can’t actually see the big difference which also is a big plus.
Application
After testing this product I can say that I see and feel the best result just using my fingers. I don’t know, I like using my fingers, it gives me a smooth, silky finish so… why should I use anything else? :D Also brushes and sponges soak too much product and I think it’s just a waste of time and product.
Finish
Right after blending the finish is glowy and if you apply too much it can feel a bit sticky but in 5 min this feeling disappears. At the end it gives a semi matte finish that looks really natural.
Adaptation
It takes about 15~20 min to adapt to my skincolor. After setting it is still a bit too light for me but right now I’m about NC30 in MAC system and I think it will look better in a few months.
Coverage
The bb cream claims to give a full coverage but I think it is medium. It doesn’t cover my pimples and acne scares completely so definitely it is not high coverage, otherwise there will not be any concealers in this line, right? :DD However I can say that it is buildable and you can get a full coverage if you want in 2 or 3 layers. But I recommend using a concealer because bb cream can melt and slip away very easily even if you set it with a powder.
Oil-control
I don’t recommend this product for people with oily skin coz it might be too moisturizing (?) I can’t describe it better haha It does not control the oiliness of my face throughout the day and my skin starts to shine just in 2 or 3 hours after applying.
Sent
It smells like a sunscreen and the scent is pretty strong so I can feel it even on my face for about 2 or 3 minutes.
Pros
+ Lightweight
+ Good coverage
+ Does not accentuate dry patches
+ Natural and smooth finish
+ Big amount of product
+ Lovely packaging
Cons
- Pink undertone
- Only 2 shades
- Strong scent
- No oil control
Rating : 4+ / 5
In total
It became one of my favorite foundations/bb creams but it still has some flaws, so it’s not the perfect one for me :( Right now I’m using it every day and I really like it: the finish, how it feels etc. Even if the coverage is not full it is still a very good bb cream for people with imperfections, like me.
