I think that foundation is wreaking too much havoc on my young skin! I really want to try one because I am trying to keep my skin healthy. I am 15 (my profile pic is my mum and dad, I'm not really that old lol) and I think a BB cream with be better. This is probably a silly question but do BB creams clog pores or cause pimples? I don't really need excessive coverage because I don't get many blemishes and they sound like perfection in a bottle! Does a cheap BB cream exist haha? And they are healthier than foundations? I would love to hear the pros and cons, I am thinking this is going to be better for me but I have no clue haha! If you could suggest a drugstore brand that hopefully exists in Australia , you would be a legend in my book haha! Thank you!

BB cream is bacially a tinted mousturizer which supposedly conceals and perfects your skin but for oily faces i wouldnt reccomend it,foundations cant really be bad for your skin if you take it off at night (unless you break out) and yes bb creams are light coverage but thier are so many foundations out there that there will be dozens of light coverage ones so its all about testing though personally i dont really think bb creams are much different to foundations to be honest,hope this helps:)

I think the cheapest one you'll be able to find in a store is probably Garnier's (which is about $12 in the US). I don't really like Garnier's version that much because it seems kind of thick and oily with little coverage compared to others that I've used. I've heard that Dr.Jart's Black Label is really good, but I personally like Missha's Perfect Cover BB Cream. You can buy small tubes on eBay for around $10 and a little goes a long way. I've had my small tube since October. Unfortunately, if you have darker skin, brands like Missha may not work for you since they're produced in Asia, where everyone has a really light complexion. I have pretty fair skin and I use the darkest color they have, which is #23. Sephora.com sells a lot of BB cream, so I recommend going there and reading the reviews or doing the same on YouTube before you buy anything. Hope this is somewhat helpful!

If you're willing to spend the money on it, I've heard great things about the Estee Lauder BB Cream. I bought the Garnier version when it was first launched, and I'm eager to finish it so I can try another brand. The Garnier BB Cream has little coverage, but it does have an SPF and I love how it feels on my skin (I have slightly dry skin).

BB Creams should be healthier than foundation, since they have ingredients in them that protect and nourish your skin. However, since the bb cream wave, many of the western variants have become more like tinted moisturizers.
If you buy the right one for your skin type, they shouldn't clog pores. For instance, I have oily skin, so I try to stay away from bb creams containing oil, cause I know oil will clog my pores.
Sorry I can't give you any suggestions on what to buy, I don't know what brands you have available in Australia, but try to find Asian brands if possible, would be my advice :)
