I stopped planning outfits around my legs. One layer covers the spots completely and it doesn't move. I wore a dress all day at a wedding and it looked the same at midnight.

Color Match Guarantee
Worried the shade might not match? Don't worry - if it doesn't quite match, we'll exchange it - for free. No cost, no sending anything back, no risk to you.
The match my shade guide above shows the skin tone each shade is designed for. Pick the image closest to your natural tone and you're set. If you get it wrong - no stress. We'll send you the correct shade free, and you keep the original.
No. Shimma is formulated with black seed oil that absorbs into your skin instead of sitting on top - which is why it doesn't transfer. Let it set for about 10 minutes before getting dressed and it stays on your skin, not your outfit. This was the #1 thing we made sure to get right.
One application lasts up to 72 hours. It's waterproof and sweat-proof - you can shower, swim, and work out without it coming off. When you're ready to remove it, gentle soap and warm water does the job.
Yes. Shimma is dermatologically tested, fragrance-free, and free from parabens and harsh chemicals. If you have very reactive skin, we recommend a small patch test on your inner arm first - wait 30 minutes and if there's no irritation, you're good to go everywhere.
Any oil-based cleanser, micellar water, or even coconut oil breaks it down gently. Apply to the area, massage for 15–20 seconds, and wipe off with a warm cloth. It comes off cleanly without scrubbing or irritating your skin. Regular soap and water will gradually fade it over a few days if you prefer to let it wear off naturally.
At Shimma we pride ourselves on getting your order to you as quickly as possible. Orders are processed and shipped within 24 hours — excluding weekends and holidays. Current delivery time is between 7 to 10 business days. Every order includes tracked shipping so you can follow your package to your door.
Real women. Real coverage.
Unlock the secret to flawless skin
See how Shimma is helping thousands of women feel confident again and wear whatever they want worry-free.
The veins behind my calves kept me in jeans for years. First time I put this on I just stared. You can't see them. I wore shorts to the cookout and didn't think about it once.
Old scars on my shins, covered in seconds. It blends into my skin instead of sitting on top like the drugstore one that rubbed off on everything I owned.
I hadn't worn a tank top in four summers. Ten minutes to set, then I patted a white shirt on it — nothing. Sleeveless all summer now and I don't think twice.
A real life blur tool
One layer, ten seconds, and the dark spots, scars and stretch marks you've been hiding are covered. Made with black seed oil that absorbs into Black skin instead of sitting on top like paint, so it stays where you put it. In less than 10 minutes it sets and won't transfer onto your clothes.

Coverage that won't rub off
You've had body makeup end up on your clothes before. This doesn't. Black seed oil carries the coverage into drier Black skin instead of leaving it sitting on top like paint. Give it around 5 minutes to set and it won't transfer - press a tissue to it and see for yourself.

Full coverageFormulated by dermatologists for Black skin
Most body coverage was made for lighter tones, so on deeper skin it has nothing to grab onto - it sits on top like paint and wipes off the second there's friction. It was never your technique, it was the product. Shimma starts with black seed oil, so the coverage absorbs into drier skin instead of perching on it. Deeper skin needs coverage that goes deeper.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Shimma is made with a lightweight, skin-friendly formula including black seed oil for deep absorption into melanin-rich skin, hydrating ingredients like Vitamin E and Tocopherol, light-reflecting minerals for a natural luminous finish, and flexible pigments that move with your skin instead of sitting on top. It's fragrance-free, paraben-free, cruelty-free, and free from harsh chemicals. No hydroquinone, no mercury, no bleaching agents — just clean coverage.
-
Shimma Body Coverage Cream is designed primarily for the body — knees, elbows, legs, arms, chest, underarms. You can use it on your face, but for best results we recommend our Shimma Face Coverage Cream, available as an add-on at checkout. Same quality, formulated specifically for the more delicate skin on your face.
-
Yes. Shimma is waterproof and sweat-proof. You can swim, work out, dance, and sweat — it stays on. We recommend letting it set for 60 seconds after applying before getting in water or breaking a sweat for best results.
-
No. Shimma is non-comedogenic, meaning it won't block your pores. The formula is lightweight and breathable - it sits on the surface of your skin to provide coverage without suffocating it. If you're applying to a large area daily, we recommend cleansing the area with a gentle oil-based cleanser every 2–3 days to keep your skin fresh.

I don’t know. I had high hopes that this would cover my scar and NOT come off on my clothes. This was the first time I tried it and it didn’t work as advertised. It’s disappointing
I have scars in my body and i don't have confidence when i am out with my friends
After my surgery I stopped wearing anything that showed my stomach. I used to love wearing bikinis in the summer but didnt want the scar showing and it was much darker than the rest of my skin. This covered it so well that you can't even tell I have a scar..
Didn't believe it would work on the dark parts on my legs, but it covered them in seconds and stayed on all day in the heat. Toffee color was a great match.
I've had little scars on my knees for years. One thin layer blended them right in — I wore a dress to church and didn't think about the scars on my legs once. It makes you stop worrying about whats on show
I've planned around my thighs every summer for as long as I can remember. It covered the marks in seconds and stayed on all day in that heat. It really works
I stopped liking pictures of myself because of my neck. Started using Shimma when one of my friends said she was using it. It works really well and makes the skin much smoother looking. I took photos at my granddaughter's graduation and loved every one
Let it dry for 10 minutes like the instructions say. It don't transfer!
II was SO skeptical because I've ruined so many white shirts with body makeup. Put this on, waited my 10 minutes. This stuff does NOT transfer and I will never go back.
I purchased Shimma in cocoa because my legs and arms are covered in dark spots, hyperpigmentation, and uneven patches that have gotten worse over the years. I also got the brush that comes with it you definitely need a good brush to blend and buff it out properly. So far I've worn it on my arms and the lower part of my legs. It was really easy to apply on my arms and buff it out smooth, I waited about 5 minutes for it to set and then got dressed and went out. I was genuinely surprised at how natural it looked and it didn't look like makeup at all, just like my skin on a really good day. It lasted most of the day without transferring which was my biggest concern. My legs took a bit more time, especially around my knees where the darkening is the worst you have to build it up and blend carefully to get that area to match the rest of your leg. But once I got it right the difference was unreal. I'm in my late 40s and between years of shaving bumps, sun damage, and just my skin changing as I get older, my legs have looked patchy and uneven for a long time. I tried brightening creams, exfoliators, even body oils that claim to even your tone nothing actually worked. They'd moisturize but the dark spots were still right there. That's why I switched to this. It doesn't try to change your skin, it just makes everything match and look even. For the really stubborn dark patches on my inner thighs I do a second layer and buff it out and it blends perfectly. I'm on my second bottle now and my sister keeps borrowing it so I need to get her one of her own.
Ok so I am 48 years old and my skin has been through it. Years of not wearing sunscreen, shaving bumps, and just life catching up with me. My legs are covered in dark spots and my knees are at least three shades darker than the rest of my leg — they have been since my 30s but it's gotten worse. I stopped wearing dresses and skirts years ago because my skin just looks uneven and tired. I tried every brightening lotion and exfoliator on the market and nothing actually made a real difference. I'd already accepted that this was just how my legs were going to look from now on. Then I tried Shimma and I genuinely could not believe the difference after one application. My legs looked like one smooth even tone from top to bottom — my knees matched, the dark spots disappeared, and my skin had this healthy glow I haven't seen in years. It doesn't feel like I'm wearing anything and it didn't transfer onto my cream couch which was the real test. I actually teared up a little the first time I wore a dress out and didn't think about my legs once. I'm on my second bottle and I've already got my older sister using it too.
I wasn't expecting much honestly but I tried it on one leg and immediately did the other one. The difference side by side was crazy
Gives a nice natural glow and easy to apply with the brush. My legs were a mess but now you can't even tell!
didn't like it
didn't like it
It does not cover and bleeds through
I struggle to find singing waterproof but this is definitely not it!
Doesn’t work
not worth the price and does not perform the coverage as stated.
absolutely dislike dies not cover Tattoos or are spors as stated. Do Not recommend.
I didn't work for me
Nice foundation
This foundation makes your skin look so natural when you put it on
It doesn't work..stop this subscription..its total nonsense. Don't send anymore package i won't be paying for it..i had great expectations..but instead i was totally disappointed in this product
I picked the wrong color but was ignored when I emailed to exchange for a different color. There is not a true money back guarantee option then if I got no response.
Horrible product not as described gives as much coverage as lotion I really want my hard earned money back. what a joke a scam or both!
I was impressed I needed it for my exposed chest and back in a formal gown and it worked.
I didnt want it. The color is terrible. Im darkskin. The color has burgundy undertones. I never wanted a refill. I hate it.
color is not accurate and I purchased 2 colors. both are ashy Grey looking. unfortunately I passed the return date
does absolutely nothing! waste of money!
Its too light. Not the same color as pictured.
The color matched perfectly, and I tried a patch of it, but it didn't cover up the stretch marks where I tried it. I'm not sure if it's because I didn't use enough of it to cover it, but I didn't try it again. I'm going to try and use it again to see if it works and then I'll write another review.
Color doesn't match & brought two different shades of the darker, caramel and toffee does not cover as it says. You could still see my tattoo after 10 minutes. It's still transfers and comes off with regular water.
They lied, it rubbed off all on my clothes
It’s really good. It’s just a little bit too sheer for me. I also got the wrong color. I should’ve got darker.
Didn't work for me and I meant to cancel before next shipment. Now I have 2 boxes that doesn't work for me.
this product was a complete waste of my money. It was buy one get one free. It should’ve been completely free. It didn’t last, it didn’t cover and the color I received was not the color that I ordered.
Unfortunately, it offered very little visible Improvement for my areas of hyperpigmentation.
Horrible
The color is not right for me. I can't get the shade to match although I bought two to mix.
Shimma stays. Until you say so.
