Foundation/bb cream

I haven't worn foundation in about 10 years but my hair is changing and leaving me looking a bit washed out so I need your help! I was thinking of getting a bb cream or similar but want some recommendations.

My skin is very pale and I've struggled to get light enough foundation before. Pink undertone and a bit sensitive. Can anyone suggest a range and colour that might work with my skin?

I use boots no 7
If you go in they will colour match

Clinique CC perhaps?
If you have pale skin the SPF 30 will be good for you

I use Garnier.

I apply Oil of Olay first, (might be too strong for you) let that sink in for 5 mins, pop the kettle on then go back and put the Garnier BB cream on, worth a try when its on offer for £5.

It glides on and looks great. I use it for work, never feels as though I have it on.

Im pale skin.

Also it might be worth you applying Childs Farm as a moisturiser first (Tesco do it) My DD has it and I use it when my face is sore from the wind, doesnt sting at all and is great for sensitive skin.

L'Oréal did a good bb cream and I'm pretty sure they had an ivory shade.
Try some cream blusher on the apples of your cheeks too, very quick way to brighten up your face.
