Olay Fresh BB Cream

In my Sunkissed Voxbox from Influenster, I received the Olay Fresh BB Cream. When first learned that I would be received the Sunkissed I was excited, because I've been wanting to try the BB Cream. When I finally got the BB Cream, I worried that it would not match my skin color, because I received in light to medium. I am not between light and medium, but I decided to try out just to make sure. Also, Olay does not have one for dark skin.

When I tried it, I notice that my face was a little lighter than normal, but if someone saw me, I did not believe the person would notice. When I took my before and after picture, I could see the differences between the before and after picture my skin look lighter.

Now, because I've never tried a BB Cream and I do not wear foundation or concealer I really have nothing to compare with. When I put the BB Cream on my face, I did not see a difference in my face. I did not see how it improve the look of my skin or anything, just that it looks lighter that it. Because it supposes to smooth out my face, I did not see that. Maybe I did not have a problem with my face in the first place.

So, my final opinion about the Olay Fresh BB Cream is I do not see anything special about it. The reason maybe is Olay does not have Fresh BB Cream in dark. I would say it feels nice on the skin, it does moisture the skin.

So, did you receive or have tried the Olay Fresh BB Cream. What did you think? Let me know in the comments?

P.S. Olay Fresh BB Cream come in Fair/Light and Light/Medium. The retail price is $12.99

Everyone Sweat

It summer, which mean hot weather, this is the time of year that we sweat little more, so here are some tips for help with the sweating for the summer and all year around.

Tip 1: Make sure using antiperspirant, and not just deodorant.
This may sound funny, but sometime people get confused between antiperspirant and deodorant. Antiperspirant helps stop the sweating, while deodorant helps with B.O. Just make sure, the product you buy said deodorant/antiperspirant to help with odor and sweating.

Tip 2: Use a stronger antiperspirant.
All antiperspirant has different level of aluminum. The different level active ingredient is between 12%-25%. Make sure your antiperspirant is strong enough for you.

Tip 3: Shave under your arms.
If you have hair under your arms, it can make it appear that you are sweat more than you really do. The reason is the hair locks the moisture that gets from your sweat.

Tip 4: Use antiperspirant at night.
By using it at night, it gives the antiperspirant time to block some of your sweat glands, because you sweat less at night. You can put some more on in morning for extra protection.

Something you need to know: FDA (Food and Drug Administration) requires that all antiperspirant have aluminum. Therefore, you will not be able to find an antiperspirant without some type of aluminum.


So, are you going to try any of these tips or have you already tried some of them? Did they work for you? Also, do you have any tips to help with sweating. Let me know in the comments.
