The Matte Finish BB Cream – 04 Dark is designed for matte to dark skin tones, providing a matte finish that looks natural and feels comfortable. Its shade is particularly well-suited for brown, Black, or mixed-race skin tones and enhances warm, golden, or neutral undertones. Its creamy texture blends seamlessly into the skin to even out the complexion, visually blur small imperfections and irregularities, and reveal a velvety finish without a mask-like effect.

Its buildable medium coverage also gives you the freedom to customize the finish: a small amount is enough to even out the complexion, while a few extra dabs allow you to enhance coverage in specific areas without overloading the entire face. Specially formulated for combination to oily skin, the Matte Finish BB Cream helps control shine throughout the day without drying out the skin. 

However, it is suitable for all skin types for those seeking a matte finish and a “no-makeup” look. Its formula combines hyaluronic acid, which helps maintain proper hydration and skin comfort, with organic pistachio extract, known for its sebum-regulating properties, which helps reduce shine and visibly refine skin texture. Bioecolia®, a prebiotic active ingredient, helps preserve the balance of the skin’s microbiome and supports the skin’s natural defenses against external aggressors. A small amount is usually enough to cover the entire face: applied with a finger or brush and blended from the center outward, the texture gradually melts into the skin, revealing rather than concealing it. Formulated with 99% naturally derived ingredients, this BB cream is vegan, clean, cruelty-free, and made in France.

A result for every preference. The Matte Finish BB Cream can be used on its own to enjoy its velvety finish and buildable medium coverage, or blended with your favorite skincare product to achieve a lighter look. Place a small amount of each product on the back of your hand, blend them together, then adjust the proportions based on the desired result before applying to your face. A simple technique to customize the finish while maintaining a natural, even complexion.

The Organic Pistachio Tree & Bioecolia®

Behind the BB Cream’s matte finish lies a duo of complementary active ingredients. Organic pistachio extract, known for its sebum-regulating properties, helps reduce shine and visibly refine skin texture to maintain a naturally velvety appearance. Alongside it, Bioecolia® helps maintain the balance of the skin’s microbiome and supports the skin’s natural defenses against external aggressors. The formula also contains hyaluronic acid, which helps maintain hydration and skin comfort. This combination delivers a matte finish and skincare benefits without drying out the skin.

How to use it

Step 1 — Measure out

Apply a small amount of Matte Finish BB Cream to the back of your hand.

Step 2 — Apply

Apply the product with your finger or a brush. For a natural finish, we recommend applying it with your finger: the warmth of your hands helps the product melt into the skin.

Step 3 — Blend

Apply from the center of the face outward and spread the product evenly.

Step 4 — Modulate

A small amount is usually enough to even out the entire face. Apply a little more product only to the areas that need more coverage.

A healthy glow guaranteed

Great product—the shade is absolutely perfect and matches my skin tone perfectly. I mix it with my day cream, which gives an even more natural look.

Disappointed—stuffed animal arrived quickly

The application is complicated; it’s a very difficult texture to work with and spread. Following the advice from the La Crique team, I mix it with my day cream, but then I lose the point of switching from the serum (which I already use) to the BB cream (which offers more coverage). At least the matte finish is definitely there. On the other hand, it’s impossible to adjust the coverage; if I add more product (even after waiting up to 30 minutes), it starts to flake right away.
And in any case, after 3 or 4 hours, it ends up settling into lines and flaking all over the place.
I definitely prefer the serum—it’s easier to apply, offers buildable coverage, and stays put all day. Actually, maybe they should have made a “matte” version of the serum?

Horrible
It has patches and is thick—really not pretty
And the person I gave it to gave me terrible feedback

It turned out really beautiful

The finish is very beautiful, and the matte finish holds up well throughout the day, even on my oily skin. The applicator tip isn't very practical.

Too dark

It's really too dark, even though I have fair skin and am pretty tanned right now

Quite thick
It's easier to mix it with some cream

Well-mat, though

Too dark!

I just bought it—it's great, but way too dark; it's not light, but medium.

So it might be okay for summer, but I’ll have to buy a really light shade… I’m wasting 25€ here!!!
And it’s not very light at all! I even got a tan this summer, and it’s way too dark!

Full coverage and matte, but difficult to apply

The BB cream provides good coverage and is buildable. It has a matte finish; however, for normal to combination skin, it’s best to apply it with a drop of moisturizer or serum for easier application.

Full-Coverage & Mattifying BB Cream

A BB cream that provides good coverage and a matte finish; apply with your fingers for a natural look, focusing on areas with blemishes. Its relatively thick texture helps even out the complexion. Ideal for combination to oily skin with blemishes.

Finally, a real mattifying BB cream!

Finally, a BB cream that really mattifies! The texture is creamy but blends very easily with your fingers. Once it’s fully blended in, it stays put and leaves a nice, natural matte finish. I also use it as a concealer on certain areas when I don’t want to apply it all over my face.

A BB cream with a very natural finish

After trying the BB cream, I find it very comfortable to wear. It mattifies the skin without drying it out, provides a very natural finish, and doesn't leave any heavy feeling on the face.
For best results, I recommend warming the product slightly between your fingers before applying it. This makes it easier to blend and helps achieve an even finish.

Nice color, but the texture is too thick

Nice color that blends well with my skin tone; the only downside is the texture, which needs to be mixed with my day cream for a nice finish
