NYC Smoth Skin BB Cream Review

I bought this a while back but didn’t really wore this every single day just because I don’t really wear BB creams nor foundations when I’m at work at the hospital and I’m mostly working so.. 🙂

I used this BB Cream for the whole month of March 2016 (since I resigned from work) and didn’t really wear any other BB Creams/Foundations.

CLAIMS ( I’ll put “*” on the claims that I believe worked on me)

  • Provides instant mattifying coverage *
  • Minimizes the appearance of pores and lines *
  • Beatifies, smooths skin *
  • Minimize the appearance of skin imperfections
  • Brighten Skin tone for a healthy, flawless complexion

PROS

  • It’s a drugstore brand so it is very affordable. It costs 179php. You can buy it here.
  • Light Coverage. (It may be a con to some but I don’t really like heavy foundations/bb creams on the skin. You can still see some imperfections which I don’t mind. ;p)
  • It sets on the face fast but not to the point that it will be hard to blend.
  • Not cakey. (I usually do 2 coats of this.)
  • It doesn’t have flashback.

CONS

  • Light Coverage.
  • It doesn’t stay matte all day. I still do oil up especially on my T-zone but it held up pretty good. It didn’t claim that it would stay on the skin matte though.
  • You can still see some imperfections like pimple marks. I have to put concealer on it to cover it completely.
  • I can only buy this online. We don’t have NYC here in Davao, Philippines.

The left side is of natural lighting while the other side has flash on it. As you can see it’s a bit liquidy but not to the point that it will drip if I move my arm from side to side. I have been using this several times already and it still has a lot of product. It has 1fl oz or 30 ml of product.

I use this with my Real Techniques Complexion Sponge so it looks so natural on the face. You can use a brush also for a thicker coverage but it’s still a light coverage on the face though. I wore this for 6 hours recently and had to blot my face just twice.

It’s perfect for your “no makeup makeup” look or your everyday look but I don’t think this will be a good choice for special occasions though (You can use this if you want to. It’s your choice though).

Have you used this before? How do you like it? Leave your thoughts on the comments below. 🙂
