The reason why I decided to get the pacifica multi mineral BB cream was due to it’s sheer coverage. I’m a fan of light coverage creams that can also be used to cover minor imperfections or at least smooth out the skin. And this pacifica BB cream seemed like it does exactly that!
Read on to find out how it actually performed.
Pacifica beauty alight multi mineral BB cream (wow that’s long) is ‘a sheer moisturizing tint’ that comes along with a bunch of benefits.
They call it a ‘multi tasking miracle’ which ‘hydrates, primes, illuminates, and perfects’ leaving you with a ‘sheer bare finish’. Pacifica mentions this BB cream will help ‘diminish the appearance of pores, fine lines and uneven tone’.
This cream is ‘great worn alone’ if you are after a natural look.
Pacifica is a 100% Vegan and cruelty free brand! That don’t just only sell foundations but many other makeup items such as eyeshadows, eyeliners etc.
Coverage
As you know the pacifica alight multi mineral cream is a BB cream. This means that it’s ment to serve as a moisturizer and a foundation at the same time.
I can say it certainly does act as a moisturizer more than a foundation. It gives a really light coverage. By light I mean it can barely hide my pores or redness.
I don’t think it has the potential to completely cover up more visible imperfections such as freckles or uneven tones.
I was a little disappointed at this as everything else about this BB cream was amazing such as the light weight feel. It’s best for using as a base or smoothing out the skin thanks to its texture but don’t expect much coverage.
I’d personally use it underneath other products or just for a natural no make up look. It can cover light imperfections but you need a little more of it.
Basically I think this cream is great for anyone after a nice radiant look to the face with a little touch of shimmer. You definitely would appreciate this product.
Packaging
I’m going through now what I liked about this product including the packaging because I’m sure that’s important to many, I mean it’s partly what attracts me to sometimes pick a product.
The design is nice and simple yet manages to make the product appear appealing to the eye. It comes in an almost 2d slim shaped packaging, which is great especially for traveling and won’t take up much space. It has florals all around it, that is in metallic. Quite pretty if you ask me!
Their outer packaging are recyclable too!
Inside goodness
By this I mean the ingredients, it’s formulated with some amazing ingredients that surely will help the skin to glow and stay healthy.
Coconut water has great benefits such as helping calm acne and has been known to have anti-ageing properties whereas floral stem cells helps the skin look more youthful and hyaluronic acid keeps your precious skin hydrated. That’s cool!
Because of all the anti aging benefits I think mature skinned peeps looking for something light would love this.
It also happens to be formulated without talc, parabens, phthalates or mineral oil, just like many of their other products.
Lastage and blendability
The product lasts easily five hours without melting and going greasy on oily areas. It feels lightweight as they mention throughout from application to removal.
It’s obviously easy to blend judging by the thin texture which starts off a little creamy but gets thinner as soon as it hits warm skin.
The shade selection is very limited but that is down to the ‘Specialized mineral pigments’ which adjusts to your skin so one colour can work for many. They do match pretty well, I think that’s clever.
Conclusion
Overall I can say it hydrates, primes and illuminates whilst also having the ability to cover light imperfections. I don’t think its suitable for those who want a heavier coverage, only as a really light coverage or if you want your skin to have a little treatment.

I just came across this review about Pacifica Mineral BB cream. I have used BB cream in the past and was actually quite happy with the product. It is great the packaging is recyclable and I personally like the lightweight cream with minimal coverage. Do you know where I could order some of this BB cream? I honestly have not noticed any in the shops lately.
I understand there are natural minerals in the cream but are the other ingredients used natural too?
Thank you for sharing this helpful article, I actually forgot about this brand and you inspired me to start checking out these products again to see if I can utilize using the BB cream again!
Kind regards Jude

Hey Jude sorry for the late reply, I think the recyclable packaging is awesome. You can purchase this product from a range of online stores such as Pacificas very own and they are available in a few shops but it really depends on where you live. I think the best way is online. Majority of the ingredients are natural and they don’t contain any chemicals like Parabens so that’s great! Your welcome and thanks for the comment

Hi Sariyah,
Congratulations on bringing up this beautiful-looking website and a great post on makeup. The review is comprehensive addressing each and every feature of the Pacifica mineral BB cream. The USP is the that it is 100% vegan and cruelty free brand. The coverage is large as it is on a borderline of a moisturizer which is a great feature. Packaging looks pretty good even though it is nice and simple. The ingredients are carefully chosen. Coconut water is a great anti-oxidant and has anti-ageing properties well known to us. The lastability of five hours is good by any standards.
Overall, an excellent product which I can recommend using without any guilt or side-effects.

Hi Rohit, yes Pacifica BB cream is truly an amazing product especially if you are into light coverages and the healthy ingredients are an added bonus!

Thanks for sharing this review, it is always good for us to have information like this. It can get really hard for vegans to get cosmetics because most of the products we have our there are mostly not suitable for them, so having cream like this is very helpful and it’ll serve a lit of people. Thanks
Sariyah
Your more than welcome shavo! It’s a shame vegan products are limited in some areas, but let’s hope the increase in these types of products spreads everywhere!

It is very common to find manufacturers claiming about the greatness and effectiveness of their products. And some times, we do not get what they claim their so called product(s) tends to offer. Well, it turns out that the manufacturer of the Pacifica Mineral BB Cream had already hinted on their cream being a light coverage cream. And I applaud them for such genuity.
Sariyah
Yep products appear so great from what they are described as, sometimes this is true, they actually do as they state whereas other times they let you down! But I guess that’s when you jump onto another product. Pacifica sure did make it clear!

I like your been open on the packaging that it is simple but too appealing to the eyes. I think i would look beyound this and focus more on the ingredients. Having coconut water has one of the basic products is good news. Coconut water i rich in protein and a balanced fat competent which accounts for its anti aging property. I will book mark this page and look at the Pacifica mineral BB cream
Sariyah
You are right, Ingredients are one of the most important part of a product whilst also for me how appealing to the eye a packaging is as well as it’s recyclability.
Thanks for stopping by!
