So, right now, I am using self-tanner (I am usually an NW20)- but I could pass for an NW30.
These BB Creams look very light on me right now- but during winter (when I am lighter- some are just right).
I tried my first BB Cream (Skinfood's Aloe BB Cream) over a year ago- and I fell in love.
I love the multiple benefits of BB cream: cover, treat, protect.
If anyone knows of a DARKER BB Cream- PLEASE let me know!!
Dr.Jart BB Cream
Rejuvenating Blemish Base (Silver Label)
So I must mix this with a darker foundation- yet it still always ends up looking really WHITE on my face. It does not dry down to a matte finish, so I recommend this for normal to dry skin-types.
Missha BB Cream
Skinfood Gingko BB Cream
Skinfood's Mushroom BB Cream is my HG. I always go back to this one! It's about a medium-to-full coverage. I gave one to my mum as well, and she loves mixing it with her MAC Studio Fix Fluid foundation. This doesn't dry down to a matte finish, but it also doesn't look greasy- leaves you with a nice dewy glow. This is definitely a BB cream everyone should check out.

I'm using the Ginko Green one right now and I'm pretty much in love with it (: it works fine for me (never made me itch) but is a bit hard to blend at first. Want to try the mushroom one! Thanks for the good review!
First of all, thank you! I was going to get the dr.jart silver since i have oily skin but dang that is TOO light! I will still to my legere and skinfood aloe! bb cream is THE secret ;-)
YAY to BB creams :)
Wow, yours are so light! I think the Legere Multiwhite BB cream is ideal for NC25-30. Try it out !

i think Missha works better for you
not sure with the other, but i think the skinfood mushroom is a bit cakey and too fair? hmm, i hope u will get a bb cream that u love 100%
have a great day!
oooOO great reviews and swatches! u can really tell the color difference! =]
I think Missha is the one for you. And that's what I want to check it out myself LOL.
Great review babe *
<3
Great review! The swatches really helped. I've heard that there's a L'Egere BB cream that's darker than all the others. Not sure of the name though. I REALLY wish there was a BB cream for the medium to tan ladies out there!
i love using mushroom bb :) though i want to try others.. i think even shade 2 of the bb is slightly too light but i set it with maybelline dream matte pwoder and it looks OK to me. trying to find new darker bb's too!
i hear all the goodies about this product... i def need to try it out. Looks beautiful and smooth on ur skin
L'egere Water Drop is dark, you can try it out ^^
thanks for reviewing these! btw, what is your skin type? i'm interested in the SF mushroom but i'm not sure if it will be goodm me since i'm oily.
Thanks for the comparisons!! So helpful.
BB creams! :)
I'm currently using Missha M Perfect Cover in No. 23. It's the darkest shade of two. You should try that! I'm NC42 so I HAVE to mix it with my foundation, but I still love it.
Thanks for the swatches & comparisons. I really want to try the Skinfood Mushroom one now.
ey thanks for the swatches. i'll try out the missha (my skin's oily-combo) and i would prefer the matte finish.
you could try out the face shop (available at walgreens) they have two kinds the quick and clean which can be used on darker skin tones and their lighter one with spf called skin extra.
thanks again >__<
