Erborian - BB or CC cream?

I tried the CC cream in Clair, really loved the formula but could do with a tiny bit more coverage... Should I get BB instead? Are the shades the same?

Also is Nude better for warm/yellow toned skin? Clair is ever so slightly orange on me.

BB IMO, I’m the same shade as you and the CC just made me look like a satsuma!

Same!!! Nude BB is perfect but CC Clair is dangerously Tango-esque for those of us with warm tones.

Thanks. Sounds like I need to get my hands on the nude colour then. It's a shame they don't seem to do the CC cream in nude as the formulation is brilliant. Has anyone tried the Dore shade? How dark is it?

Damn I did findation and ordered bb in Claire based on the results as well as the bb super. Got some free samples so chose the cc to try out. Hope I don't look tangoed

It's not too bad on me but I use fake tan on my face. It definitely gives me a bit of a tideline though

I've got the BB in both Clair and Nude and I honestly can't tell the difference. They look exactly the same on me. I like both of them.

I wonder if it's just the CC cream that the Clare goes orange in?

Have you tried the CC @WhereAreWeNow? Still trying to work out how exactly the formulas differ

I found the opposite. The CC is perfect for me and I decided to try out the BB also in Clair but found it was really orange and felt like it was more 'cakey' on my skin. Was annoyed to not have tried a sample first!

I have the bb in clair and it's not orange on me the slightest - quite the opposite, I find it even too pale and chalky, even though I'm white as casper the friendly ghost. So get a sample and check how your skin reacts.

I just bought the bb and cc cream. It’s witchcraft. I’m seriously impressed!

I'm pale and lean cool/neutral toned. I love the CC cream but clair definitely gives me a bit of "tan". I bought the BB in nude which I think is a better colour and the coverage is definitely more. I prefer the CC for daily use and lighter coverage but would love it if they did it in nude.

I have the cc in clair and dore I mix them for now and wear the dore in summer, the clair is too light for me alone, I have tried the super BB in nude but the colour was too light, I just brought the BB in the travel size in dore, it gives a little more coverage than the cc cream.
