My experience with the productThe Body Shop Tea Tree Flawless BB Cream comes in opaque deep green squeezy tube packaging with flip top opening. I find the packaging attractive, travel-friendly and fuss-free. The cap is color coded as per the shade.
The Tea Tree Oil infused in this BB Cream is made from the finest hand picked Tea Tree leaves from Kenya, which not only gives you flawless coverage, but also fights your blemishes by keeping your skin acne free.
TBS Tea Tree BB cream has a thin creamy consistency that spreads easily with fingers. The texture is hydrating and creamy. Its neither matte nor too oily rather it gives dewy finish after it sets. The texture is neither light-weight nor too heavy on skin. In humid weather conditions, my face didn't get sweaty or oily. Due to combination skin, the area around the nose tends to get a tad drier and you can notice dry/flaky bits, but after using TBS Tea Tree BB Cream I can't notice the the dryness around the nose. The BB Cream has a sheer to medium coverage and apt for using as daily wear. I do not have any acne marks or pigmentation issues but I have checked this with my sisters pigmented skin, and it camouflages the problem areas. Just don't rub the cream on the problem areas, instead dab it and leave for a minute and you could notice it working. The wear time is decent for about 6 hours. Sells strongly of Tea Tree Oil, that might be a hinch for some.
The Color 02 looked like a universal shade suiting mostly medium complexions. For me, it did brightened my face initially but it oxidized after a while and gave a slight orange cast. As for the color I can say that it has been the closest color match for my skin in BB cream. TBS had done a excellent job by coming up with a shade that best suits even the duskier complexion.
The Body Shop Tea Tree BB Cream is a moisturizing base product for everyday wear. It gives me medium coverage and hides minor blemishes too. The staying power is decent and I would recommend this to Combination to Dry and Normal Skin beauties.Rating : 4.75/5
