My results:
I used my IMAN BB Cream over cleansed and moisturized skin, even though it provides hydration. I found that the color I chose was a bit too dark (Clay Medium Deep), but by the time I applied over my entire face, it blended well, and I looked like I had a week in the Caribbean! So, I do appreciate that this BB Cream is forgiving — meaning that it blends seamlessly.
The formula is lightweight and a small amount goes a very long way. Additionally, my skin had a nice “glow” after application, and all I added was a touch of blush for an easy day makeup look. For someone with pretty clear skin, and they want to add a tad bit of color, this is the perfect choice. For someone with uneven skin tone, this again is the perfect choice as IMAN BB cream has ingredients that contain skin correcting properties.
For me, in my 50’s I need more moisture, and I felt a bit dry with this BB Cream, so I would recommend that someone who has dryer skin, bump up the moisturizer before applying. I like the velvety finish–it has the feel of a semi-matte foundation, but lighter.
I think this is a great choice for everyday wear, and even for a pre-foundation prep. Just apply a dab of foundation where you really need it to bump up the coverage.
