Ladies and Gents are you on the hunt for a great new product that will even out skin tone and blur pores? Well stop looking because their in a new BB in town, in the form of- Benefit Big Easy. A lightweight base that leaves skin looking oh-la-la natural. Keep reading for the deets…
Benefit Big Easy– $38 USD is hands down a awesome new product. This oil free liquid- to- powder like formula leaves skin velvety-matte within seconds. A heavy hitter in the sun protection area containing SPF 35, this product is phenomenal. With an array of six shades in the collection ranging from:
– Fair
– Light
– Light/Medium
– Medium
– Beige
– Deep Beige
this product is bit lacking in covering all the skin tone bases. I am the darkest shade in the collection- Deep Beige {I wear about a NC 40-42 in MAC}, so darker skin tones are not yet represented in the shade collection- hopefully the Big Easy will expand in time.
The Big Easy literally melts into the skin. The product has a primer like feel to it. Light and airy, and silky {it contains silicone} on the skin- it glides on beautifully. Liquid upon application and dries to powder like finish on the skin. I apply the Big Easy after a lightweight moisturizer, as I find that it helps the product not settle into any dry patches I may have. I use my fingers to apply a thin layer of this dreamy product upon the skin and watch it melt instantly into the skin. Its buildable so you can pat more onto the areas that you feel you need more coverage. It is great coverage, light on the skin and lasts quite a while for it being so light. I am seriously obsessed with this product as it is a awesome, innovative product that is making its way into my ever growing daily arsenal.
A great product by Benefit. All that is missing is a few shades for darker skin tones, and this product is a MUST HAVE! Have you tried Big Easy?

I do not think I have tried this!
jamie @makeuplifelove says
It is such a good product.
Anastasia says
I’m curious about this one, do you know how it compares to Korean BB creams? Or is it more along the lines of tinted moisturizer, that is marketed as a BB cream over here?
jamie @makeuplifelove says
I wish it were true BB like those in Korea and the Asian market @Anastasia. Unfortunately I have come to the realization that all American BB creams are just tinted moisturizer although this one has SPF 35,and the texture is like something I haven’t tried in a tinted moisturizer. :)
Amber says
I’m definitely going to grab a sample of this. The texture especially sounds lovely!
jamie @makeuplifelove says
The texture is soooo nice, I was extremely surprised.

Sounds great – I just saw this advertised in the Ulta catalog and wondered about it.

It won’t have a shade light enough for someone like me.
Cosmetic Sanctuary says
I like Benefit, but generally have an issue with their liquid face products. I may go in and try it out and see how it wears on me, then decide on it
Kimberly says
I will beeline it to a tester next time I get a chance.
