| L'Oreal Youth Code BB Cream $16.99 |
I like BB creams because I love multi-tasking products. Still trying to milk the last glimmer of my recent tan, I have been mixing Garnier's BB Cream in Medium-Dark, with Maybelline's Dream Fresh BB cream in Deep. I knew it was working when my friends commented that the longer I was home, the tanner I appeared.
An odd thing happened the other day. I must have applied this mixture fairly close to my bottom lashes and tear trough and I noticed the way it illuminated my eye area was very flattering. It occurred to me that if I had a BB cream in a light shade, it might be a perfect lightweight highlighter for my eye area and the top of my cheekbones.
Traditionally, I have found that products that are created for the purpose of "highlighting" are usually thick, glittery and artificial looking. Might this be the solution? By sheer coincidence, there was a sample of L'Oreals Magic Skin Beautifier in Light in a magazine I was perusing. I tried it out the next morning and I was thrilled with the result, so I went to CVS to purchase it...and then another...and another.
