Can you recommend me some products please?

Hello, I have no idea which products I'm best buying and can't afford to buy loads for them to not work...

So, firstly I look so much better when I have foundation on, but day to day with a young baby I just don't have time or inclination to apply it, especially when I'm not going anywhere special. Is there a BB or CC cream or similar which I can just apply quicker than foundation which will even my skin out and make it look a bit better? I tried a tinted moisturiser but it just made me look patchy and my skin went really oily all day.

Secondly, I have the worst under eye dark circles EVER, especially now with a young baby!! In the past I've found Mac concealer to be the best so might repurchase that, I'm currently using the collection 2000 equivalent, can't remember it's name! The problem I have is that if I put a thin layer on it doesn't cover the circles, if I put a thicker layer on it creases terribly in the fine lines under my eyes and looks awful! Do I need a primer or a different product??

Help please!! I desperately need to reclaim a bit of myself now I'm Mummy all day long!!! Thank you!

Lidl Osiris cc or b&b cream. About £1-£2, nice coverage, doesn't smell. It's cheap so you don't mind just slapping it on in the morning.

Lanacane anti chafing gel as a primer. About £7, lasts ages, makes skin beautifully smooth and soft.

Boots Seventeen Phwoar Paint under eye concealer. Just brilliant!

You'll be a new you in no time.

Thanks! I've got the seventeen phwoar paint but don't use it as I find that the worst for creasing on my skin. Maybe with the anti chafing gel it'll work better. And I love a good aldi purchase! Thanks for the recommendations!

Bo-ing is brilliant, it's from Benefit so isn't cheap but really does the job for me. I was recommended it after commenting to a friend how lucky she was not to have dark circles under her eyes... She replied that hers were as bad as mine (?!?!) and said she used bo-ing :-)

You could do with a corrector for the circles use then a small amount of concealer on top. I like the B brown ones. My dark circles are awful I've tried em all.

At the moment I have lancome cc cream which is nice for summer as factor 50 however I find YSL touché Clait foundation just as light. Love that.

I like the Bourjois CC cream (£9.99) and the matching CC eye cream (around £7 I think). Both last for ages too

Great thank you, I can see a shopping trip coming on this weekend!
