About a month or two ago I bought the BBCream by Smashbox. Its te newest thing in makeup these days. If you don't know or have not heard of BB cream. Ill give you a little back ground.
BBCream stand for Blemish Balm or Blemish Base. It began mainly in East & Southeast Asia. It was originally formulated in Gernmany by a dermatologist named Dr. Christine Schrammek in thge 1950's It was initially used to protect skin after laser procedures and surgery while alos providing light coverage.
BBCreams come in a variety of different formulation and qulities maily perceived as being anti-inglammatory and haveing a soothing effect. In my opinion this BBcream is gream for its multil tasking all in one properties such as -Moisturizer, primer, foundation, and sunblock. It retails for about $40 and I think its well worth it. you ony need a little and it goes a long way.
This is the only BB cream I have used because this is the only shade that comes in Dark that I know of. I really recomend this product and would love for you to share your thoughts. Hope you enjoyed this review.

The NYX Dark Shadows Palette
Hello all. I just wanted to share my thoughts on the new NYX Dark Shadows palette.
I had my eye on it when I saw it in ulta a few weeks ago. It retails for $25 and has everything you need except foundation.
It is very suitable for women of color and I think its an awesome buy!
I recently entered a NYX contest The. NYX Face Awards. For Youtube Vlogger of the year. I didn't make it in the top 25 but I recived a $49.99 shopping spree for NYX website.
When you open it
On the left are the 24 eyeshadows on the right is a mirror. Then it opens again and has the shadow base, liner, blusher, Illuminators, and the glosses. Ive used this palette a couple of times and I am very impressed. The eyeshadow base is awesome. The shadow lasts all day with no creasing. The eyeshadows are soft and very pigmented. The liner is good. (Your typical liquid black liner) the blush......omg! Very pigmented and not ashey. (The darkest pink up to is my favorite) the illuminator is beautiful. And the lipglosses are actually lipsticks in my opinion. They last very long and wears off very nice. I think this is one of the best palettes I've owned. Minus the foundation and lashes, I used everything in this palette. I plan on using this palette alot.....
