Oasis Beauty Full Cover Mineral Foundation Review

I picked the BB cream in Monroe as one of my 3 free samples, and I'm absolutely in LOVE! At first I thought it was going to be too dark but once applied to my skin, it looked like I wasn't even wearing anything! It is totally breathable, looks naturally flawless and I love the fact that it's matte. I have oily/combo skin and not once did my skin feel oily wearing this product, even after an entire day of wearing it. It is quite expensive, but totally worth the price in my opinion. I will definitely be purchasing it in full size. Not only did it leave my skin feeling and looking amazing, but I also noticed that my skin was looking clearer after a week of wearing it.

The Bardot BB cream give a very sheer light coverage. So, it's perfect for all you ladies who like to go for a very fresh no-makeup look. However, if like me you need a bit more coverage to hide skin imperfections like breakouts, pores, scarring etc. this isn't for you. I started off applying a small/medium amount of the BB cream to my face and couldn't even see it. Even when I put on more the coverage was still very light.

The finish is dewy (something I didn't realise prior to ordering, I got this based on shade) so it doesn't work for oily/combination skin like mine,as it will sweat and go shiny throughout the day. I think it would be really hydrating with a nice finish on normal/dry skinned ladies, though.

There really isn't a big shade range, there are only three shades, and the three shades are all pretty similar. But because they're so sheer they blend with your skin tone really well. Bardot looked too dark for me but when I put it on it matched my skin tone nicely.

I love that Oasis Beauty is a New Zealand brand that uses natural ingredients in their products.

I got a sample of this product in the hydrating shade Bardot. I find this product to be very lovely on my skin, it makes it very soft and I like the fact it has all natural products in it.

One let down is that the 2 other BB creams in the range are full coverage, something that I would like due to scarring and discolouration on my face, but I can't use either due to the fact they are for oily skin meaning they have a powder finish.

I can generally get this product to look nice if I add bronzer and a small amount of powder for a bit of coverage.

It has an odd smell, something I've never found with other BB creams, but it is easy to get past it.

I picked up one of the little sample sets from the Oasis website, and with it I got two of the different BB creams, one in Bardot and one in Monroe. Before starting on the products themselves, I just want to say that I already wanted to love them just by their names alone, unfortunately for me, I cannot wear these BB creams.

For starters, the two shades that I received are both really pink based, and are also really dark compared to my skintone (NARS Siberia). I would estimate the shade Bardot to be close to MAC NW20 and Monroe perhaps NW25-30. However, the consistency and the finish of these BB creams are gorgeous. They have a matte/demi-matte finish, but are not drying at all on the skin.

All and all, I do really love these BB creams, but I think that the shade selection needs to be a lot larger before I will be able to use these products on myself.

Ok, so I love my husband and kids but I think I have found something to love just as much! I have been using Max Factor Lasting Performance foundation for one year now, but since becoming a student again I found I was unable to afford it as much. So a friend of mine introduced me to Oasis Beauty and there I found the BB Creams. I've tried a few in the past but none that gave me coverage like my Max Factor foundation. So anyways, I ordered some free samples, one of which being The Monroe BB Cream. And I LOVE IT! It smells so divine! It's the perfect summer shade for me. Would have to opt for a lighter shade in the winter months but that's ok. But the coverage is what really did it for me. I have hormonal acne scarring on my chin and it covered it completely! After one week of using it I also noticed my acne wasn't as aggressive. The BB Cream went on my skin so smoothly also, it didn't cake or go blotchy, didn't turn orange as others have either. Definitely one HAPPY lady!!

I was a BB Virgin - when I initially tried this product and since trying other BB's I realise that this one wasn't the one for me - even though I wanted to love it.

My initial impression was of slight disappointment due to the fact that it was very runny and difficult to apply. However, as I'd heard so much wonder surrounding the 'BB' and I usually love Oasis products, I was determined not to give up on it.

On the plus side, the coverage is very natural and lasts well but I just can't get used to (or like) the dewy finish, it just feels greasy maybe I the one with the powder finish is better.

I Love Oasis beauty, their free samples policy, their values, and most if their products. I was so excited when they came out with a BB cream but unfortunately I didn't like this. I found the texture very sticky when applied and quite powdery - I almost had to drag it across my skin to work it in as it dried out so fast. I didn't find the shades particularly blendable (I tried Bardot and Monroe) and it tended to 'melt' off my face after a few hours of wear. I will not be using this again but they are an awesome company who I will continue to support.

So I haven't ever really been a BB cream fan, the two i have tried have had poor coverage, haven't lasted all day, been patchy and looks oily!

BUT! This oasis one is amazing! I know the price is high but i'm seriously considering next pay day! (i got a sample for this one). Anyways i applied it and i didn't need to much product because it is thicker than normal BB cream which is another plus! It covered my face beautifully and didn't make it look oily! It was light enough to not suffocate my skin but still gave me a great end look!

I finished my look with some translucent powder & some blush and i was happy!

I am a firm believer in companies that give out free samples, deserve my attention why because they are wanting you to try their product out free of charge so you have that time to see if their product works for you. And that's what I did with Oasis Beauty, they sent me the 3 samples and although I am more 'Hepburn' type, I was able to mix it with the other two to try - they did give me more of a natural look which I love! and even vibrant look where you could not tell I was wearing bb cream, with hyper pigmented skin/discolouration's I love how this BB cream, whichever the formula/matte-dewy all gave me an even colour/fresh looking skin which is what I'm really wanting. Definetly worth the price, the bottle will last you infact I buy another bottle each time I know I'm about to run out - I wear these BB creams daily and haven't had to turn to my liquid foundation in the last 2 months since purchasing these, and that's saying something :) Some days my skin is oily some days its dry, so I love how this bb cream just goes on my face like 'butttttttahhh/butter' and with no effort, a bit of bronzer/hi-lighter for contouring and blush...and that's me for the day. My no1 for sure :)

I used the Hepburn BB cream and I swear by it. As it says, it should give a flawless dewy look. And it does deliver. Giving me a flawless look without feeling too sticky or heavy, in fact, I forget I wear unless I remember I put it on.

The price is reasonable, as it lasts over 6 months. And is very good quality.

Would I recommend this product to anyone else? Of course I would, in fact, if your looking for a good BB cream, this is it.

I would definitely use it again. :D
