Origins BB Cream

A Perfect World™ BB SPF 15 Age-defense tinted moisturizer with White Tea £27*

I don't know about you guys, but when I heard that Origins were bringing out a BB cream, I whooped with joy! You all know by now what a fan of Origins I am and I really trust them as a brand. I already use quite a few products from the 'A Perfect World' range and the BB cream is a part of that range. 

It is available in 6 shades which is a good amount BUT I wear the lightest shade 01 and I am, as you know, not really that fair. So it probably wouldn't work for people with very fair skin - just a heads up! 

So onto the product itself... One of the main selling points is that it includes Antioxidant-rich Silver Tip White Tea. This ingredient is known to help to boost the skin’s defences against the damaging effects of pollution and other environmental aggressors. It also has SPF 15 in it which prevents age-accelerating sun damage and UV exposure. 

I've thoroughly tested it and am really impressed. I was expecting the consistency of a tinted moisturiser but it's actually quite a bit thicker than my Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturiser. It's extremely hydrating and you can really feel the skin benefits that it gives. It gives quite a good coverage but as expected, you are left with a very dewy finish. I wore it in this video, so you can see what it actually looks like on. I often find with tinted moisturisers that they are so thin I need to use my hands to apply it, but this is thick enough to use a brush (if you want to). I sometimes find that using a brush gives a slightly fuller coverage, so it's nice sometimes to have the option. It smells gorgeous! Origins products always smell lovely. 

Have you tried a BB cream before? Will you be trying this one from Origins?
