Hi ladies
I currently use Maxfactor cc cream and I love it. I have very pale skin so the lightest shade is perfect. I'm looking to try some others and wondering what are some of your faves? I have been reading lots of reviews. Anyone that has tried the moisture mist bb cream is it one shade that adjusts to your skin?
Cheers! :-)

Favourite BB and CC cream
42 posts, 17 members
I haven't tried many BB and CC creams but my current fave is the Oasis BB cream. The medium shade looks natural on me, it gives good coverage, I get a pretty good finish applying it with my fingers which is handy if I go somewhere and want to save on brushes, it's not overly expensive and it's all natural.
I second Oasis Beauty's BB cream ... it provides good coverage, is easily applied with fingers, a brush or sponge and the pump dispenser means no waste.
I haven't yet tried a CC cream and am keen to try Moisture Mist's Neutralising CC cream (the pictures in the Brand Directory are the wrong way around - the Neutralising one is in the green tube and the Brightening one is purple). I'm just waiting for BR's trial of this to be done so that I can read the reviews first.

I had the same issue Lisa, it's not just you :-) I currently have this ZA CC cream, it's quite nice!
I wanna try Mac BB cream . I've tried Oasis but It's just not the right colour for me. I tried mixing it with other colours. Oasis seems like a full coverage. I had trouble making Oasis work for me. So far I've tried Rimmel, Maybelline and Garnier their ok for a light coverage. Never tried a CC Cream I'm quite behind . Still on the BBs lol
I got mine through a BR trial, but this link will show you where to buy (if it works!). Annoyingly only some places have half the ZA range, but when you click on your region it'll show stockists and whether they have the full range or not. :-)
I just got Olay Total Effects 7 cc cream and it is quite good, not too heavy while still giving good coverage. However I accidentally got it too light, buying a fair to light complextion one, whereas I should've just gotten the light one. But it was a big sale so there wasn't any choice or testers for colour.
my skin is normal with a slight occasional oily tendency, and I also like the Oasis BB cream. I'm using Rimmel Matte atm and it's pretty good. I LOVE Benefit's 'Big Easy' but it's pretty spendy for a BB. Anna Sui BB cream is virtually holy grail but so hard to get here, I bought my last one on ASOS

Macs, the Mac BB cream is my favourite. I refuse to NZ retail prices for it though so I will use Oasis if I can't get hold of Mac for a price I'm willing to pay. It does come in 10 different shades so you might find one that suits. See if you can get to a Mac counter for a sample. I don't think you will find your shade in Lioele or any Korean brand. I gave up trying to find the right shade BB when I was in Korea as they generally only came in two,shades were either too pale or too yellow (I am a medium in Mac and Oasis).
I do find that Oasis does dry to a strange texture. Not exactly sticky but doesn't feel like other BBs.

I would suggest a trip to farmers as they have testers for the bb and cc chichi creams as well as some of the others. I did find that the chichi cc cream does have a strange scent that goes once applied to the face but is nice to wear. For ease of pick up Maybelline dream pure is at my local supermarket as a cheapie
So the moisture mist bb is freaking amazing! It wears so well on my dry skin. Coverage is like a foundation on me. Makes my skin appear smooth and it feels silky. I usually have issues with bb creams going oily but this stays on and looks great even after 8 hours of work and I work in an extremely hot place. I am super impressed. Have not really tried the cc yet but i shall soon. Also has spf 40! So will be amazing in the summer. Woohoo winner :-)
I'm a huge BB and CC cream Korean lover, they have some amazing products. More specifically I love the ones with the snail aspect to them as they really make my skin look good and gives a nice coverage without it feeling cakey or perfumed.
I ran out of it and a friend put me onto the Younique BB Enhancer and so far I'm loving it, will definitely be buying it again.

I tend to stay away from western bb/cc creams because 99.99% of the time they're too dark for me. Recently I've been mixing my own bb cream (foundation+moisturiser+sunscreen) and putting it in those diy cushion foundation cases. It's really convenient to apply and you can get the perfect shade and amount of moisturiser!
I am addicted to BB and CC Creams, although I tend to stick to Korean branded ones as they just seem to work so much better with my skin and they don't tend to add in any perfumes like the ones you can buy over here.
I'm currently using Missha Perfect Cover BB Cream and absolutely love it. Haven't reviewed it yet as I'm still trialling it, but loving it so far
I also use the Holika Holika ones as they are super moisturising. You can get it on iHerb, BeautyNetKorea and maybe a couple of other websites.
Hope that helps x
