    Powder mineral foundation (I use Avon). It's great, feels like powder but looks like foundation. I always hated foundation on my skin but needed more coverage so mineral foundation powder is perfect.

  • I prefer BB cream since it's an all-in-one product. Really perfect for people on the go

    Hi, I agree but personally I can't see the difference between BB cream and tinted moisturiser, I have tried both and they seem to the same to me, BB cream seems a bit more matte and flat too. Do you find that?

    I use a tinted moisturiser just because it has a high spf and gives me a bit of colour. Stila in light. Gives a nice sheen to my skin which has been commented on, so i'm happy using that for now.

    I used to wear foundation for years but mainly to hide spots so now I have few spots I don't want to use it as I used to hate having to do it everyday. Mine was heavier coverage though.
