Project foundation: Catrice BB Allround foundationProjekt podlaga: Catrice BB Allround podlaga

Manufacturers description

The 6in1 BB Allround Foundation by CATRICE provides a flawless complexion. The effect: balancing as it moisturises and reduces shine at the same time. Correcting as it visibly minimalizes pores. Protecting thanks to the integrated UV filters.
Illuminating with light-reflecting pigments for a radiant complexion. Covering for smooth-looking skin and pampering thanks to the moisturising almond oil. Ideal for dry and sensitive skin, but also for normal skin-types. With a sun protection factor of 30 as well as medium coverage …

Finish

It looks almost matte after I apply foundation, but I quickly start to shine (not greasy, but still too much).

Coverage

I would classify this product more as light foundation, with up to medium coverage if you layer it or apply it thicker than I usually do.

Formula

Thicker formula with slight grittiness to it. Not heavily or unpleasantly scented – but it does have sweet smell to it.

Application

I had the best results when I applied this BB foundation with my fingers over moisturized face, but not over the primer (my pores looked huge if I used silicone primer under it). It seems that warmth from the fingers melts the gritty parts and everything goes on smoothly. Dense brushes were OK, but not as good as fingers.

Packaging

Plastic tube with narrow opening.

Price

~ 6 EUR for 30ml (1 fl.oz.).

Swatch

I liked the fact that this foundation is more beige than yellow. Those kind of colors seem to work best on my neutral-yellow undertone. I applied twice the amount of foundation for the swatch, so the color stands out. But at the same time it looks darker, as I apply it on my face with much lighter hand. :silly:
I know it still looks too yellow(?), but this is the best I could do without making my skin look like something alien.

Interested in seeing Catrice BB Allround foundation slapped on the face? No problem. :biggrin: Please overlook the sloppy application and concentrate more on the coverage … :blush:
These are more or less just cropped photos to show you as realistic result as possible.

Conclusion

Staying power is average. If I used pressed or fixing powder over it, it extended staying power for at least couple of hours if not more. I prefer using this BB foundation as light coverage – to even out skin tone and hide smaller imperfections, with little bit of Catrice Camouflage cream for covering blemishes … Plus was also that all of my pressed/fixing powders worked well for light dusting to extend staying power over BB foundation.

It could be lighter, but it blends in with my skin tone if I don’t use too much of a product. Quick application without enhancing my flaky skin and fresh looking skin won me over. I’m not sure if this will be good for dry skin as it has drying feel to it right after you apply it.

Would I recommend it?

Yes – at least to try out testers in store. It won’t be appropriate for very fair ladies, but it is something worth checking if you’re looking for light coverage foundation to hide smaller imperfections. I also liked the fact that it’s good enough at covering my red skin patches – but it is still winter time, so I’ll wait until summer to see if this BB can handle true redness. :silly:
For me – this is quick everyday foundation which doesn’t look to obvious on my skin.

Have you already tried out Catrice BB Allround foundation? Would you even like to?

*I received item for review from Catrice SlovenijaCatrice/Essence maraton uradno odpiram z oceno Catrice BB Allround podlage/tekočega pudra. BB podlaga je na voljo v štirih odtenkih. Moj odtenek je Light Beige št. 010 … najsvetlejši, ki je na voljo.

Opis proizvajalca

Vsestranska BB podlaga. Odlično kombinira nego obraza in prednosti tekočega pudra v enem izdelku. CATRICE tekoča podlaga 6v1 BB Allround ponuja brezhibno polt. Učinek: uravnava vlago in hkrati zmanjšuje sijaj. Popravlja, ker zmanjšuje pore. Ščiti, ker vsebuje UV filtre.

Finiš

Takoj po nanosu je videz satenasto mat, vendar se začnem zelo hitro svetiti (ne gre za masten sijaj, a še vedno preveč svetleč videz za moj okus).

Prekrivnost

Prekrivnost je v rangu rahlo do srednje prekrivnih podlag. Srednjo prekrivnost sem dobila ali z večjo količino podlage ali pa s slojenjem.

Formula

Gostejša tekstura z nekakšnimi “grobimi” delci. Ni zelo ali močno odišavljena, a ima vseeno sladek vonj, ki ni nujno, da bo vsem všeč.

Nanos

Brez pardona zmaga nanos s prsti. Očitno je potrebna toplota, da postane tekstura podlage enakomerna in se lepo zlije s kožo. Tudi z gostejšimi čopiči ni slab nanos, vendar je s prsti veliko lepši.
Zanimivo se mi je zdelo, da se podlaga nikakor ni ujela s silikonsko bazo – pore so izgledale po nanosu prav gromozanske. :shock:

Embalaža

Plastična tuba z ozko odprtino, ki omogoča natančno doziranje.

Cena

~ 6 EUR za 30ml.

Swatch

Všeč mi je barva podlage, ki je bolj bež kot rumena. Takšni odtenki se nekako lažje zlijejo z mojim rumenim podtonom, ki pa je v primerjavi z večino manj rumen – vleče bolj na nevtralno stran. Za swatch sem potrebovala debelejši nanos, kot na obrazu. Posledično je barva temnejša.
Na žalost zelo težko ulovim pravo barvo v umetni svetlobi, s programi za urejanje pa lahko naredim z mojim znanjem le toliko, da ne izgleda podlaga čisto rumena. Druga opcija je, da naredim kožo vesoljske barve, ampak podlaga bo pa bolj realistična. :silly:

Vas zanima kako izgleda super hiter pleskarski nanos Catrice BB Allround podlage? Samo poglejte spodnjo fotografijo in odgovor je na dlani. :biggrin:
Prej in potem fotografiji sta bili več ali manj samo izrezani, brez dodatne obdelave. To se mi nekako zdi še najbolj realističen prikaz.

Zaključek

Obstojnost je nekje v poprečju. Če pa podlago utrdim še s kompaktnim pudrom, potem se obstojnost poveča vsaj za nekaj ur.
BB podlago uporabljam v tanjšem sloju za izenačevanje polti in prikrivanje manjših nepravilnosti, nato prekrijem večje nepravilnosti s korektorjem (Catrice Camouflage je bil zadnje čase najpogosteje v uporabi), potem pa vse skupaj utrdim s tanko plastjo pudra v kamnu. Zadnje čase sem imela nekaj težav z nekompatibilnostjo tekočih podlag in zaključnih izdelkov, tako da je bilo olajšanje, da so vsaj tokrat vsi sodelovali.

Podlaga bi lahko bila svetlejša, vendar s tanjšim nanosom ne odstopa preveč od moje barve polti. Še najbolj se mi je priljubila zaradi hitrega nanosa, s katerim koža takoj izgleda bolj sveže in enotne barve – brez da bi bili moji luskasti deli bolj poudarjeni.
Nisem najbolj prepričana, če bo podlaga ustrezala suhi koži – tako po nanosu je občutek namreč rahlo izsušujoč.

Jo priporočam?

Če nič drugega, si vzemite tisto minutko in v drogeriji preizkusite tester. Za zelo svetle verjetno ne bo primerne barve, vendar pa bi znala biti zanimiva za tiste, ki iščete nekaj hitrega za uporabo.
Všeč mi je tudi dejstvo, da lepo prekrije moje rdeče zaplate – vendar bom počakala na poletno vročino, preden podlago res pohvalim na temu področju. :silly:
Zame osebno je Catrice BB Allround podlaga izdelek, ki ga hitro nanesem, mi osveži kožo in obenem ne izgleda preveč očitno.

Ste že preizkusile Catrice BB Allround podlago?
