Tried and Tested - Ginvera BB Cream

I recently recieved a BB Cream sample from a company called Ginvera. It claimes to 'fight against free radical damage and help prevent fine lines' and contains 'Ginseng and Angelica to nourish the skin'. I can't prove if any of this actually works, and am just concerned with how it appears on my skin.

Although the colour didn't match my skin perfectly (it was a little too yellow), it gave an even finish and a surprising amount of coverage for a BB Cream - this could potentially replace foundation, especially in the summer months when you're skin may be in better condition. The finished look was very matte, so wouldn't compliment this springs popular 'glowing' skin. However it did mean that my skin didn't get greasy throughout the day. It had quite a chemical smell, which put me off and made me wonder what ingredients were in it exactly. But so far my skin hasn't reacted badly to it after wearing it for a day.

One huge advantage is that its got an SPF of 30, which is hard to find this high in most moisturisers and foundations.

This sample hasn't convinced me to make a purchase of the product, at roughly £15 to £20, I think I could find a better BB Cream out there.
