Natural looking even skin tone

I tried Natural BB Cream in Light Shade and I really liked it. It is non- greasy, very light to wear and gave nice coverage. It is ideal for ladies like me who would like to have natural look and would not like heavy foundation for daily use. No body could say that I am wearing a base yet I had smooth looking even skin tone. Thanks Oasis Beauty NZ.

Tips: I advise to use mini size product (if available) to see if it suits the skin and save money.

Natural look with benefits

I recently switched to this, to get my skincare back in check, and haven't been disappointed.

Knowing this replaced their BB cream I wondered if it was truly full cover or whether it was just the BB cream rebranded, but it definitely is more coverage than a bb cream.

I used the light shade which was perfect for my pale cool skin tone. The amount of product I thought was quite generous, particularly given it's a pricier foundation compared to other mainstream brands. The foundation itself is quite a thick consistency coming out of the tube, however is very light and silky applying to the skin. I was pleasantly surprised by the coverage it provided. I needed only a little concealer to hide a breakout and brighten the eye area, otherwise the foundation coverage was enough.

I applied the foundation with their own brand of application brush. The brush blended the foundation nicely, and it didn't look too thick or cakey. The finish is a nice healthy dewy finish, which can have a touch of powder over if you're wanting less shine. Despite being a full cover foundation I've found this product doesn't sit in the creases like other foundations which is another win.

My skin really loves this product so far. My skin is more hydrated all day, and my makeup application is a lot more natural looking than other foundations I've used. This is a great daily foundation with lots of goodness for your skin at the same time. I was pleasantly surprised how happy I was with this foundation.

Tips: Their foundation brush works well with this foundation Their primer is the perfect companion under this foundation - love them both together. There's often offers on the Oasis website - including the current one where you get the Primer free with a foundation.

Oasis Beauty

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.

My experience with the Oasis BB

It's been really interesting reading these reviews after the Oasis freebee samples and then their sale. I have been using a sample of Oasis BB Monroe which is a really nice colour for me. I liked it as a really light coverage that could still cover blemishes. I found it looked great when I applied it, with little dabs on problem areas and then lightly swept over the rest of my face - definitely good for light coverage and daily wear. The only thing I didn't like is that if I had blemishes that were a little bit dried out it went kind of flaky around those areas after a few hours. So potentially best to wear when you're having a good skin day!

I was considering buying it as my next foundation but haven't fully decided yet. I need to keep using it consistently to know if it lives up to it's name with improving my skin - it has been clearing up but that could be due to other factors too.

I do love that it is NZ made and that is definitely a factor towards me wanting to buy a full size one to continue with.

Tips: You can request a sample from the company's website and they'll send a little mini of the product to try in the post!

Summer Time Coverage

So I have a really hard time getting any sort of liquid foundations to work on my patchy, combo, sensitive skin but I've found that my little sample of "The Bardot" is not only perfect for my skin type but also my skin tone. I personally like to pair it with my loose mineral foundation for my preferred coverage and finish. I don't like using my flat foundation brush for it, but with a sponge or even a stipple brush or something similar could really help out. Doesn't cling to dry patches, doesn't melt off of my face and gives me a nice finish. Light coverage but very buildable. I have also noticed that it makes the pores on my nose and cheeks look drastically smaller.

Tips: Apply with sponge or stippling brush. Fingers work too, so don't be afraid if you haven't got any good face brushes.

The Monroe

A friend recommended Oasis to me, so I ordered a sample size of the Monroe BB Cream. Before my sample even ran out I decided that I loved it and needed to order a full size! It's perfect if you don't feel like wearing much makeup - but still want a bit of coverage.

Stop Searching!

These bb creams are amazing. I purchased the Oasis goodie bag which contains samples of all their products. Out of their 3 bb creams I liked the Bardot and the Monroe. I will be purchasing the Monroe as I feel it offers better all day coverage. This product offers spf25, colour and moisture. I have tried a variety of bb creams and would rate this brand the best. What they state on their website is exactly what the product does. Plus an added bonus its made in nz, natural and not tested on animals.

Tips: Apply using the blender sponge. With the Monroe it dries quite quickly use a dampened sponge if you want a dewy finish.

Beautiful BB cream

I have rather a miss and rarely hit relationship with BB Creams. Having such a light complexion means that most BB creams are just too dark and do not work on my skin. I have one BB cream in my stash which I occasionally use, but it is more like a full coverage foundation, so it's just not for everyday use.

I had heard good things about Oasis BB creams and their other products, so I purchased the $50 sample bag that contains a sample of all the Oasis products. This way I got to try all three BB creams and was able to establish that The Bardot suited my skin tone best. It sates that it is for light warm skin tones and gives a mid coverage dewy finish and I would definitely agree that it does exactly that.

I used the sample pot first and then purchased the full sized product after one application use of the sample pot. I was sold! Now that is pretty impulsive, even for me, but I really liked the product and could see that it just really suited my skin tone, gave a nice coverage (not too full on, not too sheer) and it lasted all day.

The Bardot BB cream comes in typical Oasis packaging with an inky abstract colour down one side of a white box with an information panel on the rear if the box. I love that the Oasis products are cruelty free, contains organic ingredients and is a New Zealand product. The generous 50 mL sized pump bottle is a great design and easy to use. The fact that it stands upright and isn't a tube is a big plus. I find the smell pleasant and certainly can pick out the calendula and Shea butter notes. The cream also contains hyaluronic acid which is perfect as so does my morning moisturiser and I can use the BB cream immediately after applying my Hydro Boost gel - something I cannot do with any other foundation type product. It is probably why the BB cream feels cold to the touch and has that initial clammy feeling when first applied.

I find that this cream applies easily and gives a nice even coverage that hides just enough, but still looks really natural. It is a dewy finish, and I use my favourite face powder over the top because that's what I like to do. I love the finish and find that with the application of face powder over the top, the finish looks just as great 8 hours later. I have tried finger application, sponge application, foundation brush application and beauty blender application and all are great, so it's whatever I have time for on the day.

It's not a cheap BB Cream with a price tag of $49.90, but it sure does last a long time, so I think it is great value for money.

The added bonus is that the BB Bardot (as do the other Oasis BB creams) contains a sunscreen. I didn't even realise this at first and it did surprise me when I found out as I usually react to foundation type sunscreens in products. However, this hasn't happened with this product, so it's a winner all round for me.

Tips: Play around with layers of coverage and then setting with different kinds of face powders. You can get some stunning effects, the BB Cream grabs hold of certain powders diff entry than standard foundations.

This is the one

I tried a sample of the Munroe BB Cream from Oasis last year (yay for samples!) and was an immediate convert and purchased a bottle. Unlike another BB Cream I had tried and disliked for many reasons, the Oasis Cream was truely creamy and suited my skin perfectly. The pump bottle dispenses a good amount, the fragrance is pleasant. You need to move quickly while applying as it does start to thicken and dry. The finish is a lovely powder/matt which I love as I'm not a fan of shiny skin, with a medium to full cover. The tone is good for my pink based skin, and it really does make my complexion look amazing. I've given up on foundation! I rave about this product to friends whenever they say they are looking for a bb cream or a foundation. Bonus: Made in NZ, the team are great when it comes to contact.

Tips: If you want thicker coverage, just pat on a little extra over the area you need to 'layer' it. Apply moisturise first and let it dry for about a minute before applying the Oasis BB Cream to avoid that wet-run look.

About to repurchase

I've tried all 3 BB creams from the Oasis range and have fallen in love with the Hepburn. I find the matte finish on this one and the colour is just perfect for me over summer. I mainly use this on my neck, rather than using up my more expensive foundation, and find it blends perfectly and drys to a nice matte, but not too matte, finish. Perfect for my slightly oily skin. It still looks good at the end of the day too!

I've only received samples with my orders of this so far but will be happy to shell out $49.90 for the product as I feel it will last me quite some time based on the use I have gotten out of the samples.

Tips: Try and get samples of all 3 colours as they are quite different, I didn't think the Hepburn would be for me as I'm quite pale, but over summer it's just perfect :)

I'm quite fair skinned too, but the medium tone worked well on my skin during the summer. I might try a lighter one over winter.
