Monday Morning Must-Have: Smashbox Camera Ready BB Cream Eyes Broad Spectrum SPF 15

I dread mornings – I’m so not a morning person.  Make it a Monday morning and I feel total dread. A look in the mirror just compounds my problems if I have to be seen in public.  That’s because I go back and forth with dark circles.

My dark circles are exacerbated by my bad habits – lack of sleep, too much red wine drinking before I go to bed, among others. So, needless to say, a beauty product that not only camouflages my dark circles but fades them is right up my alley. Found—SMASHBOX Camera Ready BB Cream Eyes Broad Spectrum SPF 15

SMASHBOX Camera Ready BB Cream Eyes Broad Spectrum SPF 15About SMASHBOX Camera Ready BB Cream Eyes Broad Spectrum SPF 15:

What it is:

An innovative eye cream that features all the benefits of a traditional BB cream.

What it does:

Simplify your beauty routine with this do-it-all formula that comes in a range of shades and combines the benefits of BB Cream with the coverage of concealer. It fades the look of dark circles instantly and over time, reduces the appearance of puffiness, visibly smoothes fine lines and wrinkles, and improves firmness. It also primes, protects, conceals, hydrates, and illuminates.

My results:

SMASHBOX Camera Ready BB Cream Eyes Broad Spectrum SPF 15 (medium) definitely covers my dark circles and kills the puffiness under my eyes as well.  I love that it has and SPF as the undereye area is difficult to cover with a sunscreen.

I do not have lines and wrinkles around my eye, but at times certain concealers will look cakey and give the appearance of lines around the eye area.  Not the case with SMASHBOX Camera Ready BB Cream Eyes Broad Spectrum SPF 15.  I also found that my eye area is illuminated as claimed and I have full to medium coverage (depending on my application) for hours.

I can’t wait to see the long-term benefits of SMASHBOX Camera Ready BB Cream Eyes Broad Spectrum SPF 15.  I will update my post then.

    I heard mostly very positive review about this concealer, that it is very good at hydrating, but the only downfall was that it doesn’t have very good coverage with the first layer, but it is buildable. I am very happy with the concept of a BB Cream for your under eyes.

    Hmmm…this sounds interesting. I did swatch this in Sephora and it did feel amazing on my skin. I really like the Smashbox BB Cream, so I can see how this would be a great product. It really does make a difference in the appearance of your under eye area, it looks great!

I'd love to hear your thoughts!
