REVIEW: The Body Shop Tea Tree BB Cream

Hello everyone :)

Because I totally love tea tree line from Oriflame which helped me get rid of my terrible acne in high school I got excited when I saw this The body shop BB cream. The Tea Tree BB Cream is the first make up product I've bought from the Body Shop,

The shade range is pretty poor with only 3 colours - I picked up the lightest which I was afraid would be a little too pale but once it's blended out it adapts to your skin tone. This BB cream incorporates the infamous organic Tea Tree oil, sourced specially from Kenya.With its anti-bacterial ingredients, it will treat those pesky little spots while concealing them.

It blends really easily and it's very hydrating however the coverage is really light, but that's usual for a BB cream. I prefer spreading this on my face with my fingers and tap all over to blend it against my skin. The cream sets matte pretty quickly, but doesn't leave your face looking flat, because it has a slight dewy effect too. 

I would perfectly enjoy using it unless it didn't have a distinct smell. It smells of tea tree along with somewhat minty-herby scents. I hate it so much, it's a very strong scent and I can't stand it. I'm not sure if mine is bad or what, but I can't have it on my face for 5 minutes because it makes me sick.

If any of you have it, do you have the same problem or is it just me?

Have a great day <3
