Magic colour correcting/blur cream?

Hi!

I'm bouncing back from a bad break up and I want to start some self-care, on my face. I'm 42 and my skin has always looked good, younger than its years, albeit with a fair amount of spider veins on my cheeks. I looked at it last week though, PROPERLY looked and I think I need to start taking care of it better; benign neglect is not cutting it! I'm not loaded so I'm trying to spend as little as possible initially and build up if necessary.

I have in my Beauty Bay basket, THE ORDINARY
AHA 30% + BHA 2% PEELING SOLUTION and THE ORDINARY
Retinol 0.5% in Squalane 30ml (I already have the buffet and moisturising factors). I think this is a start, skincare wise.

However, before I checkout, I want to add the (mythical?) product in the subject of this thread. Does it exist?

I don't like foundation, I use it sparingly on my thread veins (cheeks) and hyperpigmentation around my eyes. I'd rather use a colour correcting blur cream though, if one product exists? Or do I need a green cream for my cheeks a peach one for around my eyes and a separate BB? If so, how do I keep the costs down?

JML Mineral Magic: 3-in-1 self-correcting mineral powder.

If you don’t like foundation but want to cover imperfections then this is great stuff. Buff it all over doe a completely natural look.

Cheers, that looks good. I'm somewhere between light and dark in skin tone, would you say go for light? is the dark for very dark/black skin?

Sounds lovely, I love that it's fermented! However it would definitely be too light for me looking at the reviews.

I didn’t know there was a dark version. I have used it on fair skin and tanned skin it’s great to take on holiday.
