We Love Fridays: BB Cream Round Up

We first spoke about BB creams last summer, and since then these all-in-one wonders have gone from cult fave to a must-have in any chick's makeup bag. BB creams originated in Asia and have been popular there for a while, but they've only recently come to North America.
We did a bit of BB beauty research and we've got to say, we're liking this trend! We love that BB creams are a lighter alternative to a foundation. They're tone correcting, brightening and give nice, even coverage on your face. In fact, for a day when you'll be out and about and don't want anything weighing you down, may we suggest skipping the foundation and concealer routine and going for a natural, bright, BB cream look?

1. Estee Lauder DayWear BB Cream (US$38.00)
2. Clinique Age Defense BB Cream (C$37.00)
3. The Face Shop Face It Shimmering BB Cream (US$13.50)
4. Skin79 Super+ BB Cream Triple Function (US$8.99)
5. Marcelle BB Cream (C$22.95)
One of the best features of BB creams is that most contain either an SPF, serum or are specially formulated for a specific skin type. Got combination, dry, acne prone or mature skin? They've got you covered!

1. Smashbox Camera Ready BB Cream (C$50.00)
2. Vichy NeoVadiol Lumiere BB Cream (C$44.00)
3. Garnier Skin Renew Miracle Skin Perfector BB Cream (US$9.99)
4. Stila Stay All Day 10-in-1 HD Beauty Balm (C$49.00)
5. Missha M Perfect Cover BB Cream (US$19.79)
6. SkinFood Red Bean BB Cream (US$14.99)

![]() | I've tried Garnier and I love it! Only problem is it doesn't have SPF so I still need a sunscreen underneath. I love this trend! |
![]() | Where do you live Bren? I suggest looking for sales or well.ca if you can't wait for a good one to roll around. Also look out for coupons :) |
![]() | Wow Bren that's Crazy!! I only paid $12 and change for mine, but I guess |
![]() | WOW only 9.99US for the BB cream ...everywhere around here its $23 C!I really love this cream but I keep waiting for it to go on sale.. |
![]() | I have not tried any BB creams yet but I am looking forward to trying some this summer. I like that they are light weight and won't weight me down and are a great alternative to the foundation/concealer routine. |
![]() | I have the Garnier BB Cream also. I got a sample first, light, which was a little too light for me, but at least it gave me an idea of what the product is like. You get amazing coverage with just a little product and it really does seem to diminish the look of flaws. I have rosacea and on a recent trip to my doctor he said it looked like it was clearing up. I was surprised because I'd just had a few bumps break out on my cheek and then I realized it was because of the BB cream! LOL |
