    This is quite a unique product that caused me to stop and look at the Clarins range again. The French are leaders in the beauty field and french lines almost always have something special to...

    I know what people say about the rolly ball thing, as this happened to me when I applied too much. But, if you apply a thin layer to clean skin, you can feel it working, and it does brighten the...

    This works very well as a make up primer. My skin looks even and smooth, and I noticed that my foundation or tinted moisturizer last longer with this. Sometimes when i'm in a hurry I just wear this...

    This is magic. It evens out my skin tone, adds brightness. I don't even need to wear makeup if I put this on, no joke. This is a wonderful primer, on par with BB cream. Pity about the expense, though.

    Soooo.. like a few others I did not see a miraculous change in my skin, but it definitely was able to moisturize it AND balance it out (which is amazing considering how oily my skin is). I like to...

    I must admit it has been a while since I used BFB. However from what I do remember is that it did work, at least for me. It is definitely not a product for everyday use though. But for those...
