This was in the discount section of "The Reject Shop" at $1.50 (HOLY MOLY) R.P: $3(?) so naturally I purchased it thinking "yeah I wouldn't mind using another BB Cream". Since it's cheap and all, you can't really go wrong with that right? Wrong.
But before I go ranting about how I feel like I've wasted my $1.50 (mind you, I could have bought like candies or bickies with that money), let me just tell you a bit more about this product.
So Face Of Australia is of course, made in Australia. I'm not sure if you can find it in countries other than Aus, but this brand is pretty popular here. This BB Cream is a 6 in 1 "lightweight formula contains skin healing ingredients..." blah blah all the 'good stuff' y'know. I chose the one in Medium/Dark. It's 50 ML.

Review:
Smell - has a weird minty/herbally-gummy-candy smell, can't pinpoint exactly but just know it's not the most pleasant.
Coverage - mehh, didn't try it on my skin, but it seemed to blend so-so on my hand. Sheer coverage I would say. HOWEVER, when I tried to blend and rub it again after it seemed to dry a bit, it starts producing this ball-y streakey thing like rolled up dried cream. It was weird and I could tell that it isn't a good quality cream. (see the little bits there?)
The colour shade was okay, slightly more orangey than I expected but could be because it's a darker shade.Weight - pretty light (?) Not too sure, but I'm not touching this cream ever again.
So yeah, bought this cream, had high hopes for it, then read the online reviews and was thinking like "shit what have I done". Tested it on my hand, saw the outcome, and thought no way in hell am I putting this on my face. But oh wells, I guess I have learnt my lesson about impulse buying… :(
