Good face cream and BB cream

[zara5897]

Hi, me again! Thanks to all the ladies who have helped give me great tips to boost self esteem.

I have acne prone skin which is clear now, but I think that's largely due to a good skin care routine. Problem is, I can no longer afford the £18 a tube La Roche Posay cream.

Recommendations for a good daily facial cream for spot prone skin that's a bit cheaper?
I've tried Aveeno and E45 - both of which leave my skin with a super greasy film 🙁

Oh and a BB cream that I can wear daily instead of foundation? In my last post the kind girls recommended ERBORIAN. Not sure what shade to get (I'm pale-ish). But if there's another BB cream I'd be interested? Or personal experience with this one?

I am pale and the palest Erborian still makes me look Tango'd. It's the problem with most BBs unfortunately. Missha (Korean brand) have very pale ones though- I am about half way on their shade chart to give you some idea of how pale they go!
Cerave moisturizer for spot prone skin might be worth looking at. Or anything oil free and possibly with niacinamide and salicylic. (the Effaclar that I think you might mean from LRP? has these)

I mix my own tinted moisturiser with foundation and moisturiser. Both products are ideal for my skin, and I can make it as intense as I like. I just washed out an old make up pot to put it in.

Not sure about BB cream as have never found one that suits me but I have spot-prone skin along with fine lines, and use the 10% niacinamide serum by Revolution along with collagen peptide serum by The Inkey List. I find that I don't need moisturiser and my skin looks great so don't need the foundation either, just a bit of under eye concealer.

The lightest BB cream I've found is a Rimmel one, it's cheap as chips too. I think it's better than more expensive ones.

Ive at started using Aldis Q10 face cream and it's fantastic and hasn't actually reduced how oily my skin is which id never have thought possible.
