..a really lightweight BB or tinted moisturiser please. I used to use bobbi brown tinted moisturiser but they don't seem to have stock, ever. I really don't want to feel like I'm wearing anything, I'm about to have a baby and in the winter I need a bit of colour - that's without the sleepless nights? BFing etc. I have no idea how to find one without going round every counter or wasting loads of money! TIA

Erborian CC Creme is extremely lightweight. I also like the Fenty Eaze Drops, which are a bit glowier but again very sheer.

I don't do creams but Charlotte Tillbury airbrush bronzer is great and there's another one even better, when I get up next I will look for the brand, its the best

L'Oreal one is nice but dark so go lighter . Eborian was lovely but too lightweight for me.

The bare minerals complexion rescue is lovely

I second Erborian, but bb rather than cc. Only because the lightest cc makes me look orange. The bb makes my skin look amazing, yet it’s so light you don’t know you have it on.

I third erborian, it’s brilliant.
Another that I absolutely loved though was a Korres one. Hard to find ,mine was from a discount beauty retailer but I’ve since seen it in tk maxx .

Erborian.

If you go to Sephora or department stores that stock the full range you can try the different Erborian bb and cc products to see which one you like best. I have tried loads and like the texture and look of them all. I've got cold colouring but my skin is relatively brown (I am white European with dark blonde hair and blue eyes but dark brown brows and lashes) and I buy the medium of the 3 colours although I think the palest one would also be ok for me, especially in winter.

Erborian BB isn't lightweight in the way a tinted moisturizer would be. It's a medium coverage base, like most Korean inspired BBs (as opposed to western style BBs which are like tinted moisturizers in terms of coverage) It is amazing though.

Erborian CC however is very lightweight. Not a huge choice of shades though.

I really like the Rare Beauty tinted moisture although it does need setting ideally.
I don’t usually bother as I’m just whacking it on while wfh when I’ve got video calls!
It’s got a nice light even-ing out of the skin type of coverage and leaves a nice glow without looking greasy.
