List the BB creams you've used and loved/hated OR the ones you want to try.

I've used Dr. Jart+ Water Fuse Beauty Balm and Skin79 Super+ Triple Function BB Cream.

I love that the Dr. Jart+ is water based but I do think that both are pretty hydrating - at least with my combination skin. Lately I've been mixing my Skin79 with Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer.

I played with Smashbox BB cream today in Medium and Dark. Waiting to see if my face looks like an orange pumpkin at the end of the day...these BB creams and tinted moisturizers tend to oxidize on my face giving me that orange cast and I hate it.

I've been using Etude House BB Magic Cream (refreshing) for months now and I really love it. It gave me a natural dewy glow. OMG Etude House BB creams are great! Etude House Precious Minerals BB cream will be next on my basket. :DD

I love the dr jart water fuse, it feels so good on my skin. I've also tried the boscia but it's way to dark for me and the smashbox is all right, I didn't like the way it went on as much as the dr jart

I didn't like the Boscia BB cream for me. I think it is best for lighter skin colors.

My favorite thus far is the Smashbox BB cream. Long wear (8hrs), hydrating, oil control, and actually does what a BB cream should do. So many benefitting factors to this particular BB cream. I like the fact that it has a very high SPF 35. Can be used under makeup as a primer as well or under powder foundation/loose powder. These also come in a variety of colors that adapt to most skin colors.

Although not a BB cream exactly but same type of product: Skin Transformer is also great along with Perfekt.

I will also say that Dr. Jart is really good. Smashbox's BB cream is pretty good and they have a wider variety of colors.

I'm trying out my first BB cream right now, it's by Marcelle. I've only been using it as a primer so far.. I'm still trying to make up my mind on whether it matches to my skin well enough to wear on it's own.

I generally don't like BB creams because they can look ashy on my skin tone. However I love Rachel K's CC Cream. It is essentially BB cream but a color correcting one. http://www.atelierbeauty.com/2011/09/rachel-k-mineral-color-control-cream/
