Physicians Formula Argan Wear BB Cream

I recently went to CVS and spotted the Physicians Formula new Argan Wear BB cream.

I watched YouTube video reviews and it lead me to want to buy it.

I'm not so easily persuaded to buy the new beauty items that come out on the market but when I see something that I truly like and curious to try then I go out and buy it.

What captured my attention to buy the Argan Wear was the fact that it is a BB Cream and sunscreen with Argan oil and it was a drugstore product.

I already use Argan oil as a daytime moisturizer every morning so I figured a tinted moisturizer with Argan can be even more beneficial and act as a foundation without it feeling to heavy on my skin.

So, CVS sells Argan Wear for $16.00 and as soon as I saw the price tag for the tiny 1.2 fl oz tube, I said nope!

And I put it back but then I had a coupon from the red coupon machine for $3 bucks off and their special was, if you spend $12 bucks or more on any Physicians Formula product, you get $8 bucks back in rewards.

Ding Ding Ding! That was music to my ears making my Argan Wear purchase come out to $4 bucks! Yay!

So let's review this Argan oil infused BB cream shall we?

The packaging is beautiful, small at 1.2 fl oz but beautiful and it's totally Moroccan themed from the tube all the way to the top.

Argan oil is from Morocco so it's very fitting for the design in the packaging.

What it's supposed to do:

Details from physicians Formula's

Physicians Formula Argan Wear Renew BB Cream is a luxurious, high performance formula that will even out your skin tone, vanishing flaws and imperfections and smoothing skin texture without ever leaving a greasy feel or finish. SPF 30. Infused with 100% Pure Argan Oil.

Isn't she a pretty little thing? LoL

I got the color in Light/Medium but other shades are available.

At first, I applied too much and it was a little caked on but then I took some off and it was better.

It has nice coverage that can be buildable.

I did notice that I needed to moisturize before using this product because without my moisturizer, I applied it on my T-Zone and I had some dry patches.

But if you have oily skin, it's best not to moisturize prior to using this.

My advice is test it out and see.

This was my first attempt using the Argan Wear.

Now for the second try, it was much better.

I moisturized with my Argan oil, I let it set and used my stipple brush to apply the Argan Wear and it was a better experience that proved better results.

In the picture below, all I used was my moisturizer, the Argan Wear, lipliner and lipstick ,some tinted brow gel and some concealer for my under eye area and chin.

I loved the results and it gave me great coverage.

So my thoughts are:

Love the packaging
Love the results
Love the scent, it's a strong floral exotic scent but then it goes away
Love that it feels nice on my skin and gives me a matte finish with a beautiful glow
Love that it contains Argan Oil
Love that it has an SPF 30

I dislike the Price, $16 Bucks is a little to high for a drug store product in such a small bottle.

Overall this is a nice product.

Will I buy it again ? Yes!

Would I buy it without a coupon? No!
But if I can't get it for $4 bucks again than I would pay $10 dollars for it without hesitation.

So, these are my honest opinions on how the Argan Wear BB cream worked for me.
Have you tried it? Do you like it? If so comment below:)
