Beauty 311 | Introducing L’Oreal Paris Youth Code BB Cream {Sponsored}

What’s a BB Cream you ask?

Originally created in Asia to soothe, protect, and beautify skin after dermatological procedures, BB Creams (short for “beauty balms” or “blemish balms”) have recently become a major beauty trend.

BB Creams offer multiple benefits in a single formula, reducing the need for layering products.  They’re a hybrid of potent skin care ingredients with the flawless effects of makeup and can be worn alone as a tinted moisturizer, over serum and moisturizer as a regular foundation, or under powder, depending on the desired amount of coverage.

You know I love a multi-tasker!

L’Oreal Paris Youth Code BB Cream offers 5 complex-perfecting benefits in a single step: it instantly evens skin tone, illuminates, perfects, moisturizes, and protects.  It promises skin will improve with continued use over time with a noticeable difference within a week.  It also has built-in SPF 15 to protect from future damage and discoloration.

It’s currently available in 2 shades that apparently adapt to nearly every skin tone so you don’t have to worry about blending and retails for a modest $16.99.

I’m receiving a sample this week and will report back but this sounds pretty amazing, don’t you think?

Youth Code BB Cream Illuminator instantly evens, illuminates, perfects, moisturizes, and protects skin. In one week, tone and texture are improved and skin is healthier looking.
