Re: Which BB cream do you prefer?

I find American BB creams to be more like a tinted moisturizer and not nearly as good as the Korean ones.

Lisa Eldridge (my favorite makeup artist who does a ton of great tutorials) has a great video of some of her favorite Korean products. I happen to love many of the products she uses in this tutorial. In particular I love the BB Cushion made by Laneige. My brother works a lot in Asia, namely South Korea so he picked this up for me but I do believe it can be found on Target.com too and probably a few other places. I just love it! I am also a fan of Banila Co. products too.

Here is the video of her using some of her favorite Korean products.

Lisa Eldridge is the best! Another product she (and I) really like is the Bourjois 123 Perfect CC cream. It's made in France, but can be purchased here on asos.com or lifeandlooks.com. Not expensive either.

Re: Which BB cream do you prefer?

I really liked the Tarte one that was in a tsv a year or so ago (maybe more), I also really like Revlon CC cream (has a bright red cap). It has 25 or 30 (can't remember) SPF, medium coverage and my skin looks good with it. I apply BE or Clinique Almost Powder over it for great coverage and a natural look that doesn't accentuate the crinklies around my eyes. Doesn't get much better than that for me.

Dr Jart Premium BB cream SPF 45. This blows all the other BB's I have tried, out of the

water. I also like his Radiance one as well.

Dr Jart BB cream. I've tried 3 so far & I have liked them all.

I just placed another order for the Premium BB. It, by far, beats any BB I've tried...and I've tried a lot of them. American BB's don't stand a chance with me.

Where do you purchase the Jart bb cream? Thanks

I buy online from Sephora.

I like the Physicians Formula BB cream and CC cream. They are both great and inexpensive too- $13 a tube. They both got great reviews from the cosmetics cop on Beautypedia.com. You can buy them at Walmart, Target, CVS.

I like these too, also Ponds. However my favorite is Missha.

I use Urban Decay Naked Skin BB. It gives light coverage, adds some color, and has 20 spf.

There sure are a lot of them out there! I prefer one with a little more coverage, so I use Missha. However, I would be interested in other brands that have fuller coverage. I appreciate everyone weighing in on their favorites.

Vamp are you using Missha Perfect Cover? The Cho Bo Yang gives more coverage. I actually use both, depending on how much coverage I want/need and if I'm going to be outside a lot. Perfect Cover is SPF 42 and Cho Bo Yang is SPF 30.

I have tried numerous bb and cc creams. My all time favorite is Missha Perfect Cover in 13, the lightest. When I need more coverage I use the Missha Cho Bo Yang, I think the lightest that comes in is 21 which also seems to work. I order from Amazon. Also, if you want to order from the Missha US site. All products are on sale for 30% off til Feb. 16 for their anniversary sale.

Yes I got the email from MisshaSmile I'll be checking to see which is cheaper, bottom line and ordering. Missha's shipping is so high it may negate any savings.

Re: Which BB cream do you prefer?

I am so happy with Josie's tinted moisturizer. SPF 47. Shade of the tint is crazy good for me. No yellow in it that I can see.
