Review: Anna Sui Cosmetics BB Makeup Cream In 01 Light Beige

Anna Sui Cosmetics have created a  BB makeup cream (£24) which is supposed to smooth over and cover pores or rough skin and disguise any dullness, to create a smooth, natural, flawless finish. The cream can create a light, natural finish or be built up to create a full coverage look. Each particle of the cream is covered in a lifting powder which keeps the skin hydrated and is supposed to ensure a natural finish which lasts all day. Sui black tea rose scent is there but not over powering. The compact is refillable, with each one costing £18. 



I purchased my compact in 01 Light Beige (there are 3 shades available). It is housed in a weighty black compact which has “Anna Sui” and a butterfly embossed on the lid. The inside has s mirror, a BB cream makeup sponge (these can be repurchased for £3) and the cream itself which is housed under a mesh which protects/dispenses the product (15g). I found that the cream was easier to apply with a kabuki brush than the sponge which was just too small to do the job quickly. The cream left a natural finish, covering my pores and making my skin look smooth and fresh. It also disguised the redness and some of my blemishes.  The cream lasted several hours without breaking up on my oily skin and there wasn’t any transference. 
                                                   
I like this cream and will continue to use it. The compact is cute and I like that refills can be pi chases as this saves on unnecessary packaging etc. 

I purchased this item myself and the views expressed in this blog are my own.

  1. This is an interesting concept of BB cream. I am used to the liquid ones and never seen a powder one before. The coverage looks great!

  6. It is always great when you find a nice compact for your skin type, especially when it lasts long and there is no transference.

  8. Sounds like a great option. I like that although is light coverage it does the trick. It's also great that it does not transfer. Thanks for the review.

  12. I haven't used anything from Anna Sui is quite some time, sad the brand has fallen off my radar. I'm glad to hear this lasted well with your skintype!

  14. I like that you can refill the compact. It cuts down on a lot of waste that is caused by the beauty industry.

  15. I've tried BB cream before and didn't love it, I'd be interested in trying this though! Especially with the refillable compact! Super clever on their part!
