No Gray Cast, Sheer Coverage, Fluffy Texture

I received a sample packet of this when I purchased a Skin Food wash-off mask, and was so excited to try it since I had been eyeing Skin Food's "Good Afternoon" BB cream line. Albeit, this wasn't the formula I wanted to try.

This BB cream is sheer and possibly maybe medium coverage. I believe the sample packets were shade No.1, which was a little pale for me (and I'm already pretty light to begin with), so I know now if I want to buy this, I'll have to get shade No.2 (the only other shade). The nice thing about this BB cream though is that it seems to be a more natural skin tone out of the tube than do the ones from MISSHA which many people including myself think has a more grayish cast on the skin. It does oxidize to your skin tone after a few minutes though. The lasting power was pretty good for the price range this is in (USD$5–10), but the coverage does feel too much like a tinted moisturizer than it does a BB cream.

The most intriguing aspect of this BB cream (or maybe it's just the sample packet) is that the texture has a fluffy, slightly grainy feel compared to most BBs which are truly cream- or fluid-based formulas. The closest product in texture are Maybelline's mousse formulas in jars. It was a little messy to apply at first but it feels so lightweight once it's been blended on the skin! I'm not sure if the BBs out of their real tube packaging are also fluffy-textured since those are squeeze tubes, but if they are then these would be nice for combo/oily skin types since they hardly feel you're wearing anything, and yet they do even out skin tones very nicely. But for those who have blemishes and scars, this BB cream is so sheer it won't cut it.
