Have you tried different BB Creams? Can it also cover dark circles under the eyes?

[Lovefruitsandvegs]

I have checked amazon and it looks as Garnier Nutri Miracle is the most rated BB cream. I am going to Boots tomorrow and would love to buy either concealer or a good BB cream. What would you suggest? Thank you!

My garnier BB doesn't really cover dark circles TBH. I use collection 2000's rip off of touche eclat, about £4 from supermarket

I like Garniers BB cream but as wondering said, it doesn't cover dark circles. I used this: www.superdrug.com/face/garnier-caffeine-anti-dark-circles-eye-roll-on-medium-15ml/invt/204789/ it's excellent.

I really hate my dark circles. I always look tired. May be I should buy just a separate under eye cream for this problem. I have heard Bobby Brown's is very good.

I'm with wally.........

Estée Lauder Double Wear Concealer. Outranks Bobbi Brown, mac and Clinique IMO.

Estée Lauder Double Wear Concealer? I used to love their products. Is that really good?

I think I remember reading somewhere that Estee Lauder bought Bobby Brown. They must have products of a similar quality although I do not like Bobby Browns metal or any other shiny eye shadows.

I use the dried up bits round the lid of my Garnier BB cream as concealer for my circles. Works a treat!

I use eborian. Not cheap but lasts forever and really does the trick.

New maybelline Fit Me concealer is v good, and not at all expensive. My skin is dryish, this one doesn't sit in my fine lines.

I've loads of BB creams! Estée Lauder one is pretty good, but I would reccomend ordering one from Korea on eBay! The real Korean ones are better than our European versions. My favs are by Skin 79 or Étude House. There are some good sellers on eBay- bellogirl, cosmetic love IIRC

Boots stock Dr Jaart, which is supposedly Korean. I use the lightest one (in texture terms) which is about 18 quid but there are other ones with more coverage which are slightly more expensive. I love it but I do still have to use separate concealer, and on a bad day I combine it with foundation blended into my t zone for extra coverage.

I use Estee Lauder double wear concealer as well.

Btw the Garnier one is like marmite. Well, not literally obviously, that would be weird, but it definitely divides opinion. I would try before you buy.

For years I wore thicker foundations (double wear by Lauder) etc .. Bad skin as a youth. I tried a sample of the Garnier BB cream and thought it was great; consistency and coverage. So on that basis, I rate it!

Must add, I don't wear it every day .. But perfect for minimal coverage whilst also erasing the bad bits I.e. u
Set eyes/ spots!

Lovesfruitandveg.... Yes, excellent. Just been reformulated and added more shades. I use 01 light. I'm on my third and wouldn't waste my money on anything else.

Thank you everyone. SO helpful to hear different opinions. I would prefare to buy cosmetics localy from John Lewis or Boots in case there is something wrong with this.
I will see whether I can ask for a sample in our Boots. Would love to try a few at home rather than in the shop because of the light, hygiene etc.

i use Skin79 vip gold bb cream, which is korean (used to use them when i lived in asia) and on my dark circles i correct with Ben Nye blue neutralizer and disguise the trough itself with a lighter-than-my-tone concealer with a tiny brush. if i can be arsed i set with mercier brightening powder (light touch essential!)

I am a bb cream zealot, I use the no7 for oily skin and its wonderful, I don't look like I'm wearing make up, it looks like a better, healthier version of me. I do, however have dark circles, naturally, so use a light diffusing concealor (again, no7) around my eyes. On bad skin days I mix bb cream with foundation for a little more coverage.

I use what Freaky does. Great stuff.

Garnier Caffeine Anti-Dark Circles has lots of negative posts on amazon.
The thing is that I have very thin skin under my ees which is probabl genetic. They are always there and they make me look tired.

Hi otcha, what's the difference between the skin 79 gold, and the one in the bright pink pot? I had a sample of that and really liked the texture but not sure whether to go for that or the gold one full-sized. Skin 79 seems so much better than other makes. I found garnier v oily and bobbi brown v thick and Camry. Skin 79 was perfect for me..

I have the gold one, I really like it. Good texture and feels v comfortable on the skin. I think the gold one is for dryer/more mature skins, pink is for oilier.

Oooh can you tell me (sorry v ignorant!) what IS bb cream? How's it difference from tinted moisturiser, foundation or anything else around? Why should I try it?! Keen to know...

Double, I am so happy you asked..I have seen so much about BB cremes lately, but dont exactly know what their virtue is...

Hi, yes, the gold one is for drier skin, so I go for that one

Korean bb creams aren't really like tinted moisturisers, more like primer/light foundations.
