My thoughts on CLINIQUE ACNE SOLUTION BB CREAM
For somebody like my skin type (sensitive and acne prone) this is a God send product that I absolutely love. It instantly brightens my complexion, mattifies without making my face look powdery or cakey, gives a beautiful natural coverage and perfectly hides blemishes. I love it but the shade light medium is slightly dark for my skin tone. It has peachy undertones which cause a bit of oxidization during the day. I like to mix it in my yellow foundations which are too light for my skin to make a perfect cocktail that blends like a dream on my ski giving it the most amazing finish without breaking it out. I usually mix it in foundations that I absolutely love for the finish but hate because they break me out and with this one mixed I don’t really see any breakouts whatsoever.
A Small Tip:
- Don’t expose it to sunlight
- Don’t forget to shake before use *very important*
- Mix it in thick, full coverage foundations for a natural look and to make blending easier
- Mix it in foundation that you love but they cause breakouts
