‘A godsend product that’s made me feel confident again’ £8 BB cream wins praise (Image: Getty)As the chilly season and central heating period looms, your skin might start acting out. Whether it’s dryness or redness due to moisture-draining environments and severe weather, mitigating the effects can be challenging. Speaking as someone who suffers from eczema, I can vouch for this. I’m after a product that not only hydrates my skin and conceals redness but also doesn’t accentuate fine lines caused by dryness. Is that too much to ask? Maybe, but I’ve discovered one item that meets all these criteria: Erborian’s BB Creme, priced at £41. This wonder buy has long been praised by many as a go-to solution for radiant, even-toned skin. However, it’s not exactly a budget-friendly option for everyone Enter L’Oreal Paris Magic BB Cream. Normally retailing at £11.99, you can snag it for £8.71 in a flash sale today, with four shade options available. I’ve given it a whirl myself, and it’s a fantastic choice for anyone, not just those on a tight budget, reports the Mirror.

Zoe shares: I must admit, I am a big fan of Erborian, and if you have some spare cash to splurge on a product, you won’t be let down by it. That being said, L’Oreal’s version is a superb alternative. I’ve used it multiple times and I’m always thrilled with the outcome. When my eczema flares up on my cheeks, it masks redness with just a tiny amount. I also appreciate how it doesn’t leave a sticky or cakey feel on the skin, yet it’s incredibly moisturising at the same time. I always keep a tube of this handy throughout autumn/winter. Reviewers comment: One Amazon customer shared: “I am 48 and I have suffered with red cheeks and nose from rosacea for years. I have not only given up on finding a cream that takes the redness away, but also accepted that everything that would cover it feels unnatural, doesn’t let my skin breat and looks cakey. I’ve just put up with it and avoided being photographed closely etc.” “I cannot believe the difference it makes in my confidence. I don’t even have to apply a lot, it feels pleasant on my skin, my face has a lovely, healthy colour. As the redness doesn’t show I can use lipstick again, that I couldn’t use for the last few years because it accentuated the redness of my face. The same with pinkish/redish clothing. I can wear them again. By the end of the day my face is still not red and it definitely doesn’t irritate my skin.”

Another chimed in: “I do not wear makeup or foundation, but as I’m getting older (47) my skin is getting blemishes and is quite uneven. Acne (must be the menopause! ), old acne scars, red nose and cheeks, dark patches under my eyes… this stuff covers the lot! Yet looks natural, can still see my freckles so doesn’t look like I’m wearing makeup.” “My boyfriend instantly knew I’d done something but couldn’t tell what! V easy to apply, foolproof for someone like me who doesn’t wear makeup! Lasts all day unless you touch your face, blow your nose etc which is to be expected (and a big reason why I don’t wear makeup! ). Can’t feel anything, it’s not dry or greasy, feels like my natural skin. A godsend product for me, makes me feel confident again. No scent. Gives my skin a flawless, consistent look with little effort. A little goes a long way so this tube will last a long time.” Another satisfied customer, Lu, shared her positive experience along with a before and after photo: “Have been struggling to find something to cover my rosacea on days when I don’t want to wear full makeup, especially with a holiday abroad coming up. This product did not disappoint! Exceeded my expectations. Will be buying another one to take on holiday. Great to use as it is or as a primer/concealer before applying foundation.” You can grab your L’Oreal Paris Magic BB Cream for £8.71 here.Story SavedYou can find this story in  My Bookmarks.Or by navigating to the user icon in the top right.Follow OK!
