Hey everyone!!
I recently picked up the Olay Fresh Effects BB Cream on clearance at Big Lots. It was marked down to $2.50. I’ve been wanting a bb cream for a while now and when I saw the price, I knew this was the bb cream for me.
While searching online for a picture to use (I’m sick and don’t feel like taking a picture of the actual product. Even though taking the pictures are one of my favorite parts of blogging ) I couldn’t find one on the Olay website. I finally found a picture on Amazon but the product is unavailable. So I’m not sure if they are discontinuing this product. Which is sad because this is the first bb cream that I actually like.
On to the review-
Thoughts- This is actually the first bb cream that I’ve liked, I think in the past I wanted something with more coverage and with the bb cream it’s just a tinted moisturizer and doesn’t give very much coverage. Since I’m older now and have a family, the amount of time that I spend on my makeup has been cut in half, so using a bb cream is a wonderful option. I really like this bb cream.
Pros-
- Fast and easy to apply
- Great smell
- SPF 15
- Light weight
- Great coverage for a bb cream
- It made my skin look amazing.
Cons-
- Feels kinda slimey when I start sweating.
- Ended up having to powder my forehead
- May be discontinued
I got so many compliments on my skin when I was wearing this bb cream. It didn’t cover all my flaws but it did blur out the redness and acne scars. I will definitely be wearing this for the rest of the summer.What is your favorite bb cream?

I used the Garnier bb cream when it first came out and I didn’t like it but it’s probably has changed 3 times since then. I need to try it out again.

This bb cream sounds great. OK, the slime bit doesn’t sound too appealing but if you can fix this with powder, it’s not that bad.I hope Olay won’t discontinue this product. I’m actually hoping that Olay will launch the entire line on our side of the pond. I’ve only heard great things about fresh effects.

The slimy bit stopped after the powder, thank goodness. This really is a great bb cream. I hope they launch it over there too.
