I have had a few breakouts, but generally do when I first start anything new on my face. I barely use any extra foundation with it and for those of you with several different shades of foundation, mix them. As the summer/winters end, I never buy more. I always mix my colors to get me through to the end of whatever season I am in. Thanks for your input on the product!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5562199986463082038.post-75031891520518894182013-05-20T05:53:58.896-04:002013-05-20T05:53:58.896-04:00This is interesting, you would think a thicker for...This is interesting, you would think a thicker formula would provide more protection against oiliness.

I tried the original <a href="http://www.foundationforoilyoracneproneskin.com/bb-creams-oily-skin" rel="nofollow">BB cream</a> before the combo/oily version came out. I hated it. It is so orange on my very white skin, seeing your swatches I don't think the other will work for me either.

I've been wanting to try a BB cream for a while now but haven't gotten around to it. I don't wear a ton of makeup (in fact, right now, I only have on a correcting powder and bronzer - no foundation or anything), so I'm afraid I wouldn't wear it much if I bought it. That's why reviews are so helpful! :)<br />- HeatherAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5562199986463082038.post-22549078739136964762013-05-14T06:56:47.148-04:002013-05-14T06:56:47.148-04:00I use the original formula and had no idea one for...I use the original formula and had no idea one for oily skin existed.

By the end of the work day it's as if I haven't put on anything at all. The c/o formula however, stays much better and gives me better coverage for my problem spots. However, if I don't want as much of a matte finish I do go over it with the normal formula (I bought the c/o one by mistake). kazarinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5562199986463082038.post-64603072474050536802013-05-14T01:50:46.800-04:002013-05-14T01:50:46.800-04:00I love BB Creams.
