BB/CC Cream Recommendations for 40+

28 replies

Morning MN,

Can I please ask for your BB/CC cream recommendations for 'older' skin?
I'm 41, skin is relatively clear - with a few fine lines. I'm too old for foundation now, but there are times where I need to even out skin tone.
I have a good skincare regime, using Tret and lots of moisture so whatever I get it needs to be able to sit on top of SPF (any good recommendations for that too?!)
I basically want to look like I'm not wearing makeup, with fresh dewy skin (not sure it's possible at my age, but will try!)

I’m 45 next week and my go to is By Terry moisturising cc cream. It doesn’t have many shades but if there’s one for you I think it’s a great product.
If I’m unable to get that then the urban decay stay naked hydrating tinted moisturiser is good and a much bigger shade range.

Watching! I’ve been using La Roche Posay tinted Effaclar which I do like but am looking to try something else next time - ideally with SPF.

I’m a fan of the Nars tinted moisturiser - a little goes a long way, but it suits my skin.

Also a fan of IT CC creme and the LRP tinted Effaclar is really good too.

I didn’t get in with the Trinny stuff at all - tried the BFF, BFF serum and the pore minimiser as well. Cost a lot and not very effective at all. Had to jump through massive hoops with them to get my money back. There’s cheaper stuff out there.
