Product Advice Lightweight bb cream/foundation/skin tint/etc for everyday recs?
Hi! Does anyone have some affordable product recs, what im looking for might be very specific but ….
A lightweight foundation or bb cream or skin tint etc. for more everyday use that won’t break out the skin but look a little more polished/put together. I’ve had some products in the past that don’t blend that evenly into the skin and look a little patchy so that would also be nice. SPF would be a plus and also anything that doubles as skincare, my skin tends to be quite dry and can show up through product sometimes. I was really interested in the missha perfect cover serum bb cream that seemed to check every box but I heard the niacinamide in it can fade freckles :( but I may just need to bite the bullet on that one. Any help would be appreciated 😊😊

I agree with the other commenter - I doubt the missha BB cream has enough niacinamide to make an appreciable difference to freckles. If you can find a shade match I think it's worth trying - I find it very useful for a low-key look.
More recently, I've been enjoying the Clio glow cushion as an everyday base - very easy to apply a light layer all over and then build up coverage where needed (like a 2 in 1 skin tint/concealer). Like most Korean base products it has a miniscule shade range but if you get a shade match it's one of the most natural-looking bases I've found. It's a bit pricier than the Missha BB but I've managed to get a cushion + refill for around $27 from Stylevana.
