My Best BB Cream(s) Forever (?) Dior discontinued !
The first time I learnt about the BB creams, I was quite uneducated about them. I had no idea why there was such a cream, what it worked for and how it was different from the foundations, fondo tinta, and fond de teint.
They are lighter than fond de teint, they are not as sticky as fond de teint and they are more creamy and hydrating in a way... well, depends on which foundations you use, too.
I will tell you my first two favourites and then will suggest two other very very good ones.

DIOR HYDRA LIFE BB CREAM: GOOD COVERAGE
So the first one is this one, you all probably know about it: Dior Hydra Life BB cream. It is such a nice one. It looks very natural and thin on the skin. That is what I look for! It hydrates. Well, I also use sometimes hydrating cream beneath. I chose the colour beige lumière and it fits me really well. The smell is nice but I have to say that it is a bit like the cosmetical smell, something a bit chemical is sensed in it. But no bother... I love it and have finished till now two tubes, on the third one. It goes a long while: one year. I use it almost like 1.5 years if I cannot finish it. Cause I do not use bb cream every day, you know you cannot use BB or foundation every day, your skin needs to breathe. LOVE IT LOVE IT AND LOVE IT! Thanks Dior. Do not forget that it is SPF 30 and it has a moisturising role. There are unfortunately rumours that it is discontinued. Sad about it, I wish I had stocked a bit.
ESTEE LAUDER BB CREAM: SUCH A NICE SMELL AND TEXTURE

ESTEE LAUDER BB CREAM: SUCH A NICE SMELL AND TEXTURE
My second favourite is for sure Estee Lauder BB cream. I always bought the small tube, never used the bigger one as I always had Dior. This one is a tricky one, first, it looks blue on the skin, then it fits perfectly well with your skin, I guess mixing with the heat and so on. I enjoyed it a lot also because it smells heavenly and it is kind to your skin. Does not dry the skin either, it has SPF 15. Still the second favourite...
Recently I tried BB of Erborian, just got a small tube from Sephora. And it is apparently amongst one of the best bb creams in Vogue's list. I also liked it, it looks natural, it does not have much of perfume inside. Then it looks thick but when applied to the skin it is thin. There is silicone inside, have looked at the ingredients. But I think that most of the BB creams are not supernatural in regards to ingredients anyway. So this is the third one...
BIONIKE BB CREAM: BRIGHT
BB OF ERBORIAN: YOUR SECOND SKIN
BIONIKE BB CREAM: BRIGHT
Today, however, I tried something that you might like even more, which is BioNike. BioNike BB Cream defence hydra radiance, it is also hydrating and has SPF 15. It does not contain gluten, perfume and conservator ingredients. I used it today and liked the colour and the coverage... it is not very thick when you apply it with a sponge. The one I have is BioNike defence hydra natural. You can find it in the pharmacies. Do not know if it is available in other places, too. It is not overpriced, so good for the budget!
So these are my suggestions so far, next time I will also see more natural alternatives in my next blog, especially cruelty-free, in fact Lavera has this responsible role I think. I have never tried that one though.
BB CREAM OF L'OCCITANE: NATURAL
So these are my suggestions so far, next time I will also see more natural alternatives in my next blog, especially cruelty-free, in fact Lavera has this responsible role I think. I have never tried that one though.
BB CREAM OF L'OCCITANE: NATURAL
I have recently tried the BB cream of L'Occitane and loved it. I had the lightest colour, number 1, so I was scared at first. However, it looks light and natural ... I also enjoyed using it. I suggest it to everyone, also to those who have sensitive and dry skin... I think that either Bionike or L'occitane can take the place of Dior if Dior decided to discontinue...
That is all from me for today, do not think that BB is the most necessary thing in life, but do your BEST and be BRIGHT! From BB to ZZ, the best would be not to Bla Bla like me.
