Deborah Milano BB Cream

Hello! I hope you are all having a wonderful day and enjoying the little bit of sun we finally have in the UK! You may have seen my recent review on the Deborah Milano Mascara* which I absolutely love. I was also kindly sent the BB Cream 5 in 1* to try and I am going to be reviewing that for you today!

If you have read my latest review then you will know that on a daily basis I tend to go for foundations which I can build up to a higher coverage, so I wasn't really sure when I would use the BB Cream. It took me a little while to get round to using it as I always wanted something with a higher coverage. I finally tried it though and have been wearing it a lot since! 


I use my Real Techniques Buffing brush to apply this! The texture is extremely light and it almost feels like water is being buffed into my skin. The consistency isn't too runny or watery at all though, it's just quite thin and feels very hydrating.

As I'm buffing it in, it really doesn't look as though it is providing my skin with much coverage. It just disappears into the skin leaving it looking extremely evened out, flawless and radiant. The coverage is definitely slightly buildable though, but not very much.


This is called a 5 in 1 product as it claims to prime skin, conceal, even out skin tone, moisturise and protect skin. As for priming skin, I actually still use my Laura Mercier primer because I know that just works for me. I can honestly say it does everything else though. I have never used a product before that evens out my skin tone so much whilst still looking so natural as if I don't have any makeup on. My skin definitely feels hydrated when I use this as the texture is so light and moisturising. The cherry on top of the cake is that this contains an SPF 20 so will protect my skin!

Overall I am in love with this BB Cream! I have been using it a lot since I first tried it as it just leaves my skin looking flawless but incredibly natural. I never thought I would enjoy using a BB Cream so much as I do tend to go for full coverage foundations, however this is a fantastic product! I have the colour 00, Fair Rose which is a perfect match for me. I have never found something that matches my skin tone absolutely perfectly - it is basically my skin tone in a bottle, however strange that sounds! :)

This BB Cream is available here for £9.95.

Have you tried any BB creams? I would love to know if there are any you like!

Deborah Milano 24 Ore Absolute Volume Mascara

Hello! As you probably know, I absolutely love mascara! I own way too many and even when I find one I love, I still go out and buy more. When I received the Deborah Milano 24 Ore Absolute Volume Mascara*, I was really excited to try it!


This mascara claims to achieve a false lash effect by volumising, defining and lengthening eyelashes. I have used this every single day since I first tried it because it is just amazing! It is definitely one of the best mascaras I have, and I own a lot!


I do prefer slightly smaller brushes and this brush is pretty big, so that is the only downfall. It's definitely not too big though and I don't end up with mascara all over my eyelid! I do find it a little too big for my lower lashes and it leaves them looking clumpy, however I don't tend to ever wear mascara on my bottom lashes though so this doesn't bother me!

I curl my lashes before applying mascara and the curl holds all day. This mascara is very black and does not smudge, flake or budge at all throughout the day. I never usually have any issues with mascaras smudging, however I have used a couple before that flake a little on my face throughout the day.


This is such an amazing mascara and I have been using it everyday for about a month now! That is amazing for me because even when I find one I love, I usually still switch between a few and buy new ones which I haven't been doing at all!

I don't have a photo of this on my eye because honestly, I am rubbish at taking photos of my face! Haha but I am wearing it in my March Favourites video :)

This mascara is available here for £9.50. Bargain! 

Have you tried this mascara? I hadn't heard of Deborah Milano before I received this, but I have been trying another product from them as well which I am really enjoying! There will be a review of that soon.

I hope you are all having a wonderful day!
