Yes, I am also hit by the BB cream frenzy. If you're like me, with oily skin and acne was your constant companion, you'd be BB Cream frenzy hit too! I bought it out of a smallish shop and I got a badge of I <3 Maybelline and Clearglow BB cream. I was happier to see the freebie than to see the Maybelline Clearglow Bright Benefit Cream!
Shades Available: Natural, Radiance, Nude.
You can Buy it online at Healthkart
or Cosmetix or Stylecraze
I was not exactly happy to see only 3 shade choices but I still bought 01 Nude just to see how it works out.

My Experience:
I just dabbed on the cream, didn't use a brush or anything.
Bright Benefit cream stays true to its name and it did make my skin appear brighter. I don't have an uneven skin tone problem so I cannot tell you how it fared in that area. It provides light to medium coverage; was not effective with the dark circles and the zit popping up here and there. It does conceal the redness.
On my super oily skin, the mattifying effect lasted for 2 hours and will last more if you set it with powder.I didn't need any sunscreen after using this neither I needed a moisturiser.
At night, I did see a whitish cast around the eyes but only around the eyes.
Why you should buy it:
Why Give it a Pass?
Will I buy it again?
Unless something better comes out, I will!
My Rating:8.7/10 (I would like more shade options and a heavy coverage variation)
Recommendation:Go ahead! Try it. You were going to buy it anyway;)

Why you should buy it:
- It will make your skin appear brighter(not fairer, mind you!).
- Should be able to conceal minor blemishes.
- Mattifies but for how long will depend on your skin.
- No allergies/reaction(I have sensitive skin)
- You won't need moisturiser with this( Unless you've absolutely dry skin.)
- No breakouts or should I say no *new* breakouts!
- Provides UV A And UV B protection.
Why Give it a Pass?
- If you're looking for medium to heavy coverage, this won't help you (even with a foundation on top of it)
- Limited shade option.
- Did leave a whitish cast around my eyes.(SPF is the culprit, I guess)
Will I buy it again?
Unless something better comes out, I will!
