oh my GOSH

Please excuse the poor quality photos, I had to use my phone as I've once again misplaced my camera battery charger.

I purchased Gosh BB powder from Superdrug a week or so ago, in shade 02 (the lightest one). It's cruelty free and vegan.

Here is is in comparison to my skin tone - if anything it looks a bit paler than I am, and I tested a bit on my hand at the shop.

Makes me look weird and red in this picture for some reason...


It cost £8.99 but it says All in One on it, and it's a BB powder, so I assumed it would do in place of foundation.








I have to say, I'm not too impressed with this. When I put it on, and I've tried it on it's own and over foundation, it seems to develop to have almost red undertones. I've used the little sponge that comes with it, as you can see. It doesn't seem to show as you put it on, but then when I get to work and look in the mirror I can see patches of it on my skin, even when I put it over foundation (I use foundation of a different brand, but it says it is "perfect to use with any foundation"). I've trued used a brush but it tends to do that thing where the powder comes loose but doesn't go on the brush so I end up with next to none on my face.
The mirror also gets very dirty considering the sponge covers the powder when it's shut, so I never use it.

I've put it on my face here in this terrible picture, and you can see that although it doesn't look orangey, it does have a strange red undertone and definitely doesn't make me look like I have an even skin tone.

I was quite excited about this BB powder, but I have to say I don't think I'll be using it much and I won't be buying it again. Have you tried any GOSH products? What did you think? I don't think this will put me off trying anything else in their range, but I'll stay away from the foundations and powders.
