What it claims: Primes, moisturizes, minimizes pores, conceals, covers, smooths, mattifies, brightens, and helps protect. Lasts all day.
First off, this product only comes in 3 shades at my drugstore. Light, medium, and medium/dark. It has broad spectrum SPF 25. It comes in a squeeze tube and contains 1 fl oz, or 30 ml. It cost me $6.54 at my local Walmart.
Now onto my review. When I got to Walmart, I was looking for the Medium shade but it was all sold out so I got Medium/Dark. The color selection sucks. If you're darker skin toned, this product won't match. This bb cream has a sunscreen scent which I personally don't mind but others may be sensitive to the scent. As I was applying it, I thought "Holy orange!" it literally looked orange when I put it on and is was dark too. The coverage was a good light coverage. It evened out my skin tone but didn't conceal my acne or scars. I used my fingers for application because I think this should be something easy and on the go. As I started blending it in, I noticed it dries really fast. So you have to work fast with it. Since the color didn't quite match, I had to put some on my neck as well. In natural lighting, it actually matches pretty well, makes me look a littler tanner than usual. I but on the rest of my makeup as I looked good. It definitely felt tacky even after I set it. I've had this on since 12 and it is currently around 5pm and I can see some shine coming through. I'm not super oily, it just looks dewy. Does it do what it claims?
Primes: I mean I guess? I don't really know.
Moisturises: yes
Minimizes Pores: surprisingly, yes! My pores look smaller!
Conceals: No
Covers: yes
Smoothes: yes
Mattifies: no, it looks like a natural finish. Somewhat dewy.
Brightens: I don't notice anything so no.
Protects: YES!! SPF 25 baby!
Last all day: I don't think so. I've had it on for around 5-6 hours and I see oil coming through. But keep in mind that I do have oily skin!
It did 6 of the 9 claims. Overalls, it's a good bb cream. I just wish it matched my skin better. :)

I'm happy you liked it, I've got super oily skin, and I'm very fair, and even the lightest shade is too dark for me, abd my oil comes through so quickly, even with powder :( absolutely disliked this bb cream :/ I'm trying to use it up because it's right around $12 - $13 where I live. but I'm finding it difficult.

Sorry that the time was off girls! I tried posting it earlier and it kept saying error! But it is now around 10. I took it off after I wrote all of this!! I'm glad I could help!
Jillian, the colors suck!! And I could definitely see why this bb cream isn't for super oily skin! :)

Yeah, they need to make a broader colour range for sure, would be great for normal to medium skin, maybe theyll come out with one formulated for oily skin in the future? I hope so, haha.

Jillian, they actually have a matte one out that would suit oily skin!! My Walmart doesn't carry it though, which is a bummer! I would've loved to try it!!

I bought this product yesterday as it has only just come out in the UK. I tried it last night and I too thought "holy orange" as I applied it - I chose the lightest shade. However, after I'd finished and had it on a while I went a looked in a mirror in another room with a bigger window and I actually thought it was a nice, light tan finish. It was matt (I am combination) and it did even my skintone out. I don't know how long it'll last as I tried it early evening and took it off at bedtime. I think it'll be ideal for summer to just bung on and even my skin tone without having to both too much, although I probably will add mascara, bit of illuminator on my cheekbones and lipstick or gloss. Good product to take on holiday.
