Budget Beauty Tuesday: Editor’s Pick—Maybelline Dream Pure BB 8-in-1 Beauty Balm Skin Clearing Perfector
I’m pretty proud of my skin — I take good care of it, and it shows. Still, it’s not perfect. I have large pores and some hyperpigmentation present, so I love using a tinted moisturizer or BB Cream to even my complexion. I was recently sent Maybelline Dream Pure BB 8-in-1 Beauty Balm Skin Clearing Perfector to try, and it “cured” all my complexion issues.

Why it’s an editor’s pick:
Maybelline BB Skin Clearing Perfector pretty much does everything is claims, and that’s amazing. I don’t have acne, so I can’t speak for that one (although my daughter has snagged this tube so I may be updating this post in the near future), but I can speak for the other 7 claims of the product. After applying this BB cream, my skin looks amazing. I have medium brown skin and used the medium tint, which at first I thought would be too light, however, in a minute or less, the tone adjusted and it look perfect!
My pores were minimized and my skin tone was evened out. Although I’m a moisturizer fanatic, for the purposes of “scientific research” I wore Maybelline BB Perfector without moisturizer to see if my skin felt hydrated throughout the day and SCORE! Yes, it does! On top of all that, the product is so lightweight, it doesn’t feel like you are wearing makeup, or look like it for that matter either. And pores…What pores?? Those suckers are minimized and I’m happy!

I personally didn’t like the first version of this BB Cream, but I recently purchased this one because I have oily skin and I love that it’s not full coverage, manages to control oil and can also be used as a primer.
