Blemish Balm/Beauty Balm is something that is the new handy foundation these days. It gives the right amount of coverage for that day to day look we need. Just before I start I want to clarify that I do not wear makeup on everyday basis. For me its just moisturizer and sunblock (mattifying powder in summers) and I'm all set to go out. But there are days where I do wear makeup and make my skin look smooth and seamless (the part where BBs come in).
Garnier Miracle Skin Perfecter Oil Free (Rs.549): I've this cream for an year now. In summers when I used it, it broke me out really bad and oxidized on the skin and if not them made my skin look weird oily and tan which is why I stopped using it. The formula is very running and makes a mess every time I use it. Few months back I used it again. I mixed it with my sun protection and moisturizer and the result was not so bad after all. However, it did not stay for more than 3 hours. My personal experience with this cream has not been very good but I still use it on days when I need a little color in my skin but I'm sure I will never ever buy this again ever.
Overall its a 2.5/5
The Body Shop Vitamin E BB Cream( Rs.2440): This I got only recently and I'm actually impressed about how beautiful it looks in the skin. It gives the most natural coverage and looks as seamless as ever. It has a weird gel like formula however, it blends really well. The coverage and staying power is decent that I wouldn't mind wearing it on some events as well. It did not break me out, a worth buying product.
Overall its a 3.5/5
Color Studio Professionals BB Cream (Rs.495): Who says Magic isn't real? I've found the right spell for me, in the form of this BB Cream. I use the shade medium and OH MY GOD, its is AhMazinggg!! It stays put all day, doesn't make my skin oily at all , does not break me out and is dirt cheap. Its formula is quiet thick and requires a little effort to blend. To be honest this product is totally worth the hype.
Overall its 4/5
The below pictures will give you a slight idea of how these BBs look and blend.
