BB Creams

... and I think it's important how you apply it ... I use Sigma f8o brush. every foundation or tinted moisturizer looks better when it's applied with F80. ok, it has nothing to do with oxidation but still ...

^ I agree creams / foundations do tend to look better when applied with a good stippling brush.

I've seen a lot of ads lately for the L'Oreal BB cream. I think its part of their youth code line. Has anyone here tried it?

I've also been using the Maybelline's BB cream and it's worked great for me. I have combination skin, so I set it with a little bit of powder. Since I was tanned when I bought it, I got both shades and mix them to get the right one. It doesn't look orange or weird, it gives a really natural look.

I'm debating getting one of the ones on Amazon, but the one I got a sample of with the face mask I ordered is too expensive. Which is disappointing since it's anti-acne and this sample even seems to match my skin. I noticed another one mentioned a lot is way cheaper though.

I tried maybelline's bb cream and I loved it! I still prefer skin 79's but maybelline worked perfectly for me

I've been trialling the new Lancome BB Cream (although it won't be officially released in Australia for a little while due to SPF restrictions) and it is amazing. Hands down the best I've ever used and it doesn't oxidise on the skin at all.

I just bought the Urban Decay BB Cream, will give you my opinion soon!

I must say i've tried the expensive ones and never been happy with then. And then i bought maybeline bb cream and it it perfect! My face glows! You need only a hint of concealer or just go without.

I'm not much a BB cream user but i've been loving Skin79 Vital Orange BB cream recently! It has a yellow based undertone which seems to match with my skin color, it can be quite ghastly white looking if you applied too much! So a little goes a long way And it has a high coverage, perhaps due to the SPF 50. Really recommend this

In the long term the BB Cream trend left me rather unimpressed. I much prefer normal foundations.

I love Maybelline's BB Cream. But it seems incompatible with my skin in summer so when I tried now I was amazed by how great it is!

Has anyone tried Vichy Idealia BB cream?

I tried that yesterday and it felt quite good and suited to my skin.
I buy that product as soon as I get money.

What are people's thoughts on the Maybelline BB cream? Does it have a thicker consistency? I'm a little skeptical to purchase it since I have a more yellow tone to my skin and it makes it hard to find a perfect match.

I wasn't too thrilled with Missha BB cream, but Vichy got me at 'anti-grey'.
I love my mineral foundation, but sometimes I don't feel like wearing a full face of make-up or I just don't want to spend too much time in front of a mirror but still look decent. It looks quite promising, but I'll try to get a sample first.

I have thought about that vichy cream. is there good colors for very pale skin?
maybeline bb cream is very light textured and i think it suits well with different skin types and colours..
i have super white skin but found a suitable colour.

I'm afraid not, there are only two shades available. I really hope the light one would be okay for me in the summer. Here's the review (I don't understand a word though ) and some pictures of the light shade:

Do e have a topic for cc creams?

Oily-skinned gals: I strongly recommend the new Flower (by Drew Barrymore) BB cream that's now sold at Walmart. Lasts incredibly well on me even in hot, heavy, humid weather. I doubt it's a traditional BB cream rather than just a slapped-on marketing ploy, but regardless, it offers medium/ full coverage base with a truly matte, long lasting finish that smooths over pores. Plus the shade selections are yellow/ olive in tone, which is perfect for canceling out redness. I'm MAC NC15 and I use the lightest shade BB1. It's my new love and summer go-to.

Which BB cream would tFSers recommend for very pale skin? I've tried Garnier's and Maybelline's from the chemist's, but both are too dark for me.
