Oasis Beauty Full Cover Mineral Foundation Review

I wanted to like the Oasis BB creams but I really just dont. I've tried both the Monroe and the Bardot and neither were great but the Monroe was by far better. It has a matte finish and more coverage than the Bardot, which I found made my skin look shiny but didnt provide nearly enough coverage. They both feel awfully heavy and oily on my skin and make it feel quite uncomfortable from the moment I apply it. I have a trial of the Hepburn to try out as well but I think it will be too dark - I might use it as a leg bronzer instead.

Tried samples from website, the Monroe has good coverage for a BB cream, matte finish, no good for mature skin, tends to sink into any lines & wrinkles after a while, the other one I tried was the Bardot, lighter coverage & dewey finish, good for young & mature skin types, but if you want more coverage, use a concealer as well. Bit pricey but would last for ages as you only need to use a small amount.

I am obsessed, I got myself a sample of this and wow! I am fair skinned, a little bit more tanned in the summer and I tried this in the colour Monroe, it was the perfect colour for me. The consistency was thickish, I would compare it to Studio Fix by MAC. It didn't feel like it was sitting on my skin. The coverage is amazing for a BB cream and I found it was build-able, I would be more inclined to call this a foundation. A tiny bit goes a very long way. I have dryish skin and it didn't dry it out at all.

I have recently received a sample pot of this and put it to the test! The sample will last you about three-five days, so you can have a good verdict after using it.

The packaging is a durable little pot which you can use for something else in the future! Or, you can squeeze more of your BB Cream into it when you go away for a day or two so you won't have to carry around a big bottle.

The smell is lovely, it doesn't smell like foundation, more like a subtle moisturizer which gets a 10/10 in my books!

It gives quite a full coverage and lasts a typical work day or night out, but if you want it to last for both, you'll probably have a problem. But, again, that's where the sample pot is so handy!

It glides on a bit like a paste, I'd say they should dilute the formula a bit for smoother application, as you use quite a bit more than with other BB Creams.

I'd definitely recommend at least a sample of this product (and it's free!), and I know I'll be saving up to buy a full sized product. It's a bit expensive at $49.95, but it's cruelty-free and you're supporting local business.

I received a free sample of this after the lovely BR ladies mentioned on the forum you could get some free samples to try and I have always wanted to try some of their products but being quite pricey it is nice to be able to try this first. This arrived in a little plastic pot with about a weeks worth of product to try. I was really surprised by the consistency of The Monroe it was a thick consistency and im used to BB Creams being quite runny and light more like moisturisers or suncreem. This was thick and more like a foundation then a bb cream texture. It reminded me of a mousse foundation that sort of air whipped feel but still light and airy on the skin. I applied this after washing my face with some Thursday plantation tea tree face wash and moisturising with the oasis apple a day moisturiser, I applied using my hands like I would a moisturiser but you didn’t need a lot as a little went a long way with this bb cream.

There is no real obvious fragance which is great I find a lot of the time things with a fragrance tend to aggrevate my skin. This covered really well better than any other bb cream I have ever used. It covered my skin beautifully got rid of redness and covered my blemishes while still letting a little bit of my freckles and skin shine through. It didn’t cover my dark circles but there isnt much that does. It has a really good strong pigment and finished with a matte finish like a foundation. I only had to apply a little bit of concealer to my dark circles and then carry on with the rest of my makeup routine without having to use some foundation to build over the top. The Monroe is the lightest shade which suited my very pale skin perfectly. I am normally the lightest shade in every foundation so its often hard to find even BB creams that don’t come out orangey on my skin.

I didn’t set with powder and it lasted my work day really well it had just started to come off a little on the most rubbed/touched areas (chin/forehead nose). But it lasted my 8 hour day pretty flawlessy. I have very sensitive skin and this didnt upset the balance of my skin at all.

I was really happy with this BB cream and how it looked and felt on my face, it was a lot more like a foundation but with the good healing properties of the BB cream, it lasted well and had a great finish. It is a pricey BB cream but I think its worth it and I will be using this in the future I would definitely recommend this to others who like a heavier more coverage bb cream.

I'm not an experienced BB cream user, but I know I won't be becoming one anytime soon. I tried a sample of this in the 'Monroe' and the colour and consistency looked nice and silky, and a bit like lightly whipped cream. The colour blended into my skin, but didn't seem to cover anything. No, unfortunately it just made my face look FURRY. :/ I'm happy each ingredient is chosen carefully for specific reasons to benefit your skin, because I hate unnatural products and my skin is fussy too. But, there's no way I'd want to buy this because my skin, blotchy and dry as it is, looked better without it. The price of a bottle of this is also not very cheap. My skin is very dry and sensitive, and has eczema, so I think this BB cream just stuck to the dry patches and made it look worse. I think if you had oilier skin this could work pretty good for you. But, if you have dry skin like me, you might end up with a 'furry' face, as my sister said it looked like.

I've tried a lot of BB creams, and this is definitely in my top 5. Usually I find BB creams (particularly korean ones) can be quite grey, and make me looked washed out, supermarket BB creams, make me break out, I've used more high end CC creams and didn't like these either as nothing seemed to suit me oily skin, but the Monroe was perfect. I loved the matte coverage it gave, and a little certainly goes a long way. I like using my beauty blender to apply this BB cream, as I find it gives a more flawless finish, or a flattop XO brush. Highly recommend, and although it's expensive, it has far more coverage than the average BB cream, so would be perfect as your everyday foundation as well.

I recently purchased The Bardot BB Cream by Oasis Beauty. I received samples of their skincare range and I was very impressed so I thought I would give their BB Cream a go. So I brought the full size BB Cream (RRP $49.50) For a 50ml product. Now your probably thinking, Thats expensive and Is it really worth the price? Lets find out.

Before application I used Oasis Beauty Apple a Day Moisturizer. After letting that sink into my skin I then apply the BB Cream. I use 1 pump of BB Cream and I apply it with my fingers. I hear people say that “BB Cream is just tinted moisturizer” and others say “BB cream is a miracle product”. I have tried many drug store and Korean branded BB Creams and nothing compares to this one. The texture of the BB Cream is like no other that I have tried. It feels a bit gluggy & creamy at the same time (If that makes any sense lol". It is very smooth and creamy to apply, also a little goes a long way. Just like every other Oasis Beauty products it has a very nice smell to it too which makes it more appealing. It covers my imperfections perfectly, evens out my skin tone, gives off a lightening and brightening effect and leaves me with a dewy finish.

I have been using this instead of foundation everyday for the last 2 weeks and im loving it! You can embrace the dewy finish or you can mattify it by applying some powder over the top. It lasts all day and doesn't wear off, I have had no skin reactions to it either which is a big bonus for me. I would defiantly recommend requesting a sample of the BB cream to see how it can benefit your skin. Overall this BB Cream is now a must in my daily routine, Its hydrating and I use it as foundation. 5/5 for this product. I really like the Oasis Beauty range as it made in New Zealand and it is made from organic ingredients. Totally worth the splurge!

I LOVE this product, you can almost slap it on your face and it blends itself in, it has spf so often this is all I wear when out in the sun, It is a good colour, I know they had a few issues in the beginning getting the colour right

I have tried so many different brands of make up but never really stuck to one. However, after sampling Oasis BB cream in Monroe I was amazed. I immediately tracked down a store that sold the full size and I have used it everyday since! I have even put on my other foundations, including my luxury branded stuff, then taken it off and put on my Oasis BB cream! The first thing I noticed was the smell. I really liked it. It make me think of clay or a mud mask it made me feel that this product was all natural. I can't stand unnecessary artificial fragrance. The texture was creamier than other bb creams and it stuck to my skin, sort of sinking in as I applied it. I learnt to dab it in small sections rather than spread it across a wider area. I love the colour match too. Monroe is fair but has good coverage which I found blended well over some discolouration I have. The packaging is handy and practical in a pump dispenser. I can see how much product is left...so I can easily tell it's time to order more!
