This past weekend I did a bit of drug store makeup shopping after seeing that Burt's Bees released a BB Cream. In the summer months especially I hate caking makeup on my face and have been in search of a cruelty-free BB Cream. I attempted filming a little 'get ready with me' style video to show you how it applied, but the photo booth is awful at picking up on skin finishes.
As with most bb creams the product does not give a ton of coverage. Having acne-prone skin, I'm not asking for miracles anyway. I am looking for light breathable coverage, to even out my skin slightly. I am very impressed with the coverage, it covered up all of the redness on my face, and I only had trouble getting it to cover one of my breakouts.
I read the reviews before purchasing this product, and some reviewers commented that the product had a strange smell to it. You only really smell the product when applying it, and then it fades away. I don't find it overpowering, and to me this does not compromise the quality of the product.
I also really love that the product has an SPF of 15 since I often forget to apply sunscreen unless I am going to the beach. This BB Cream is also 99.9% natural which I love!
I felt that this product gave my skin a beautiful and natural finish, while helping to even out the tone and clarity. I would definitely recommend this BB Cream.

I have been looking for a good tinted moisturizer or BB cream! I have only tried the Maybeline BB Cream and I remember it didn't even look like I had used anything at all. It kind of made me afraid to try others! I will definitely need to try this one by Burts Bees. I love their products but I had no idea they had a BB cream! Thanks for the awesome review!
