Beautiful cream just not right for me

Firstly I must start off by saying how lovely this felt on my skin. I applied it with s slightly damp foundation flat brush & it felt so refreshing. Unfortunately the honey colour wasnt really right for me, I felt like I got left with a really pink kind of finish. However it was undeniably dewy & thats what makes it beautiful. It was like I was glowing. I also like that its s natural product & kiwi to boot! Sadly they dont have the right tone for me & I really do feel like im missing out!

Tips: They have a couple of shades so ask for samples as it isnt cheap buy if you find the right one you wont sorry.

The Monroe BB Cream

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.

Bardot

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.

Tips: Bardot is light coverage so use powder if that is a problem for you

BB in Bardot

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.

Tips: Request a free sample from their website to make sure the product is right for you before purchasing :)

BB Bardot

Packaging is lovely a nice plastic pump bottle, simple but very appealing. This does help cover some of my many imperfections and is nice over a moisturiser much easier to spread around otherwise it does catch onto the skin and make smearing it around quite difficult, without moisturising first it went a bit tacky and was hard to do an even application and went a bit patchy but I do have dry skin. I find its a light cover and love the fact it contains sunscreen so I put it right down my neck as well. I do like the natural fresh face look it gives and the dewy finish gives my skin a nice glow. My skin does like this product it feels nice with this on, not drying at all. It is quite a light colour and fragrance wise it faintly has a sweet scent. I do like the fact that it's also good for your skin.

Tips: I apply moisturiser on first

The Monroe

This BB cream was a little thicker than others I have tried before. Other than that I would say the results were fairly similar to other BB creams. I think the coverage may have been a little thicker due to the thickness of the BB cream, which is ideal if you are wanting to hide imprefections. Howver the reason why I would most likely be choosing this BB cream over other brands is because it is organic; which makes me feel like I'm looking after my skin better, and because it is New Zealand made. If I can I always do try to buy New Zealand made, so that would definitely be a contributor.

My Dream BB Cream for Summer

I have been a BB girl for quite some time now. Especially as I find I only need a light to medium coverage on my skin as my complexion itself is good (most of the time), but its my uneven skin tone that I want to fix. I heard mixed reviews about this BB cream, so requested a sample from Oasis, which arrived so fast!

I began using this BB cream in winter, and I actually didn’t like it. In winter, my skin tends to get quite dry, and this BB cream, with its powder finish actually tended to enhance the dryness so I wasn’t too happy with it. As well as this, my winter skin was just a tad to light for the Hepburn BB cream so I stopped using the sample, and begin using it again in spring, when my skin was not so dry, and a bit darker in colour. And this is when I fell in love.

The bb cream had a thick and almost rich consistency to it, being the same colour as other BB creams, but obviously a bit darker as it is the Hepburn (the darkest BB shade Oasis offers), and the cream has a slight sheen to it. The samples come in generous little pottles so you really get to have a good try of the product before buying, which I did. The full size product comes in a plastic bottle which using a pump to disperse the bb cream. A method I love because it keep the product sanitary, and keeps yucky germs out! It has the beautiful Oasis coloured label, and is just packaged in a clean and crisp design which is effective.

I have tried numerous ways of applying this BB cream, and I have to say the best method I have found it using a sponge. Currently I use the Real technique sponge, and it is perfect for blending the BB cream, and provides a smooth and near flawless coverage. Another positive thing about the BB cream is it feels so light weight, but it is actually a full coverage product. I did try using my fingers initially, but found it could get a perfectly smooth look!

Plus the last amazing thing about this product is that it is made by Oasis, so I don’t have to worry about what’s in the BB cream, and I can trust it is good for my skin. Especially as it is paraben and fragrance free

I do enjoy using this product. Its light weight, and has none of those bad ingredients in it and it provides great coverage. The only thing about this product is its only a product I can use in the warmer months because that’s the only time of the year I can get a good colour match, and because in winter, the finish on the BB cream enhances my dry skin, rather then hiding it!

I do recommend this product, get a sample to ensure you can find a shade right for your skin!

Gotta give them credit!!

I gotta say. What the hell do they use because it's good! So good, I'm in love with their Hepburn and Monroe bb creams. I tried the sample size and I loved it. They are expensive for one but they are going to save your skin. All their bb creams look so matte and they dry pretty quick.

I definitely can't wait till I'm rich to buy and buy from oasis beauty. You women are out of this world. Love your so much

Tips: Only tip. Would be to work quick because it does dry quickly.

The perfect 'in between' face!

I'm currently using The Monroe Oasis BB Cream, which I received from them as a very generous free sample, which comes in a small purple pottle with a great, tight fitting flip-lid.

This is a very thick BB cream that looks almost greasy in the pottle. It also looks quite dark, but when you smooth it onto your face a little goes a long way, and it doesn't feel at all greasy. The finish is a lot lighter than I was expecting, and when I'm tanned I need to warm it up a little sometimes with a bit of bronzer.

The powder finish is epic. It leaves a matte, settled look to skin without a heavy 'made up' appearance - literally the perfect finish for in between bare faced and foundation. It's marketed as a 'full coverage' BB cream and that's exactly what it is.

My skin is oily and this cream doesn't aggravate it or cause oily patches - it's pretty agreeable actually. It washes cleanly off my face with Micellar Water or cleanser - though interestingly is harder to wash from my fingers than it's counterparts from other brands. I have applied it over a couple of primers - and even over light foundation for a more 'made up' look with that powder finish when I was away and had forgotten my powder. Both yield good results.

The one big downside is the cost. Definitely try it as a free sample first to see if you like it, as it's on the expensive side - but given how long the sample has lasted I'm confident that the full size would last ages.

BB beauty

I tried this BB cream recently after is came in the box as a sample with another Oasis product.

It comes in a wee white tube with cute pink writing, and an easy screw top.

The product is a moderately thick cream. My colour was medium and the product is for sensitive skin. I don't have sensitive skin, but it didn't irritate anything in any case. And I have quite fair skin so usually go for beige products, so surprisingly this product in a medium wasn't too dark for me. It also has an SPF which I really like.

I've been applying it after my CC cream and it gives a nice, even coverage. I'd decided to give up on BB creams and stick with tinted moisturiser after a bad experience with another brand, but this BB cream has changed my mind. I find it applies evenly with a beauty blender and lasts all day. I'm really impressed with it.

$50 for 50ml seems a bit pricey, but then again it is a very good product, so in my estimation it is worth it. I do recommend it.
