I don’t normally use BB Creams because I have really oily skin and BB creams just tend to slide off my skin. It’s such a bummer that I’m missing out on all its benefits so I decided to give this Maybelline Clear Smooth Shine Free BB Stick a try.
Summer is pretty much over but even if we’re already on rainy season, you can’t deny the fact that it’s still annoyingly hot and humid in the Philippines and wearing foundations isn’t as ideal. I am so glad I picked this up the counter because it blends well, controls oil, and doesn’t slide off my skin.
It’s affordable too, I believer it’s only 299php and a little goes a long way so its really economical. Just dab a few on your skin and blend, blend, blend! You’ll get the same coverage of a foundation minus the heavy feeling with added benefits of a BB cream. 🙂
It’s such a sad thing though that there’s only a few shades to choose from. I’m a morena and I got a perfect match in the shade 01 Fresh so I believe it will work well with most fellow filipinas.
Staying power of Maybelline Clear Smooth Shine Free BB Stick is not as good as the foundations do but you can help it stay longer by applying a primer underneath and setting it with a setting powder. 🙂
Lovely review, bummer though that it only comes in few shades! Xx

Great review! Never tried a BB cream in stick form; this one looks pretty interesting. For the price, I may give it a go!

Oh I've never seen BB cream in stick form before, what a fun product! Glad it works for you 🙂 BB cream is all I wear now, haha! I used to wear makeup to the office only.

I also reviewed this! I’m using the other shade naman, yung Radiance. I love this product and I’ve been using it for more than 2 years now, ayoko lang yung amoy nya. Parang plastic na tunaw hehe
