Foundation with spf 50 rating. BB creams with sun protection
I am a known sun protection fan on a regular basis. I give preference to the means with the highest factor. I have one skin, there is more than enough pigmentation on it, and the difference of a few percent protection between SPF30 and SPF50 seems to me fundamental.
In order not only to protect yourself from the sun, but also to even out the tone of the face at the same time, you can use products with both SPF and pigments in the composition. Today we are testing seven such “hybrids” in action.
I remind you of my initial data: combination skin, prone to oiliness, with acne, pigmentation, porous, sensitive.
Mineral Defense Ultra-Repair Cream SPF50 Ultra UV Protective Daily Shield SPF50+ Mineral Defense, Ultraceuticals
Promise: 100% mineral sunscreen with innovative "Integrated Tone" technology that adapts to skin tone. Great for sensitive skin. Filters: zinc oxide and titanium dioxide. Also contains: shea butter, hyaluronic acid, vitamin E.
Julia: “My favorite since last year, when he just came out - I went with him to Corfu and thanks to him I kept my face almost white, while my body was tanned like never before. A very specific thing - it is white in texture, but with microparticles. The texture due to mineral filters is classic "rubber", but rather plastic - it dissolves on the face and is absorbed quickly. It does not give a noticeable noticeable color - it is a light-light shade and smoothing the skin, slightly matting. For the beach, in my opinion, it is enough, but for the city I want something lighter and more pigmented.
Also keep in mind two points: it is a bit sticky, so you either have to wait before applying makeup or make an effort to blend it out. And also this tool needs to be washed off very well. It is practically waterproof - I actively bathed with it, and the cream remained on my face and was felt under my fingers. So be sure - active cleansing, masks and peels will not interfere.
Composition : Active Ingredients: Zinc Oxide 25% w/w, Titanium Dioxide 4.28% w/w.
Sun fluid with 100% mineral filters Mineral Radiance UV Defense SPF50 High Protection Universal Tint, Skinceuticals
Promise: suitable for all skin types, including sensitive and acne prone; can be used after invasive procedures(lasers, injections, peels). It contains titanium dioxide as the main filter, as well as plankton extract Artemia salina, tinted mineral pigments. The product is waterproof, non-comedogenic. Shake before use.
Julia: “Ideologically, a fellow of Ultraceuticals: both of them are completely on mineral filters and were created for use after cosmetic procedures. But the texture is a completely different story: Skinceuticals is liquid like water, tinted, spreads over the face, absorbs very quickly, light. By the way, it spreads not only over the face - it can also leak from the jar, the nose is all in the product, be careful. The degree of masking is light, the tone equalization is small. And personally, after a while, a shine appeared on me, which I had to jam with napkins.
If you have normal or dry skin, you are confused by mineral filters and want a light texture for every day, this product will do. By the way, it provided good protection - I used it in Zanzibar this summer, it was checked. But I remain a fan of the classic Ultra Facial SPF50 Defense.”

UV Protective Cream Tinted SPF 50+ PA++++, Cle de Peau
Promise: A high performance foundation designed to protect skin from the sun. Moisturizes, restores, creates natural shade masks wrinkles. The texture is light creamy. There are four shades - pink, ivory, ocher, dark. Filters composed of chemical and physical.
Julia: “My main discovery of the summer of 2017 is sunscreen for the face with SPF50 (amazing!) from the same line, but without pigment. But at first I didn’t like this tinted version - somehow it didn’t make friends with my skin either before vacation or on vacation - it rolled down. It turned out to penetrate after the vacation - the face came into normal condition I didn't even want to apply foundation. And then Cle de Peau suddenly showed itself well - lay down evenly, gave a good tone alignment (it is normally pigmented), behaved normally during the day. I added just a little bit of concealer under the eyes and on the wings of the nose - that was enough.

Promise: Fluid with mineral sunscreen suitable for sensitive and acne prone skin. Light texture, toning and mattifying effect. Also contains vitamin E.
Julia: “And here we have a curious story. The tool immediately seemed identical to Skinceuticals - the same liquid, except that Skinceuticals is a little denser. And wow - they have an almost identical composition, 98%. Moreover, they even have identical jars, one gray, the other white, two funny geese. Let me remind you that both brands belong to the L’Oreal concern, so such mimicry is understandable (before that, I had seen such an identity with MAC and Smashbox eyelid bases). But still surprising -).
Kiehl's is a solid medium, no complaints about it - the lightest texture, the same light shade and minimal tone alignment. Also gives a little shine on the skin, but tolerable. (I actually think that Kiehl's and Skinceuticals are tinted to a greater extent in order to hide the whitiness of titanium dioxide).

Promise: sun tinted product, can be applied even to the skin around the eyes. Filters are 100% mineral. The coating is translucent, without white traces. It also contains wheat protein to protect against pollution. Shake well.
Julia: “Another tinted water - but denser than others and with a shade that has a clear pink. Darphin's Intral series is generally one of my favorites, and the screen did not disappoint. Comfortable texture - light, quickly absorbed, behaves normally during the day, without giving excessive shine, slightly tinted. Didn't cause any problems on my sensitive skin. clogged pores too)".

SPF 50 CP Cream Color Perfecting City Protector SPF50 PA++++ Anti-Pollution-UV, RVB Skinlab, Diego Dalla Palma Professional RVB Skinlab
Promise: a product that not only protects from the sun and evens out the tone, but also provides prevention age-related changes and hyperpigmentation.
Julia: "Diego dalla Palma RVB SKINLAB - Italian peptide cosmetics. There is a professional line, and a home one, sold in salons and clinics. The remedy is a mixture of sunscreen and CC cream. And a very good mix. Firstly, the shade (reminds me of Erborian bb creams), which really blends well with the skin. In fact, CP Cream plus a little concealer was enough for me. Secondly, the texture is really pleasant and additional hydration is felt. Well, as a result - excellent behavior on the skin during the day - no complaints. Italian handsome, in general -)”.

Which cream is the best? None of the funds subdued so much that I completely abandoned tonal means in their favor. Yet the level of disguise they give is light or very light.
Nevertheless, for the city and for every day, I have three favorites - this is a professional cream Diego dalla Palma, tint from the sun protection line Cle de Peau and screen for sensitive skin Darphin. Because, as I understood during the test, I prefer sun protection in the form of creams, they give more additional moisture and stay better on my skin during the day. With these, you can forget about the tone sometimes. Darphin, on the other hand, is the most pleasant liquid option for me.
Quite thin Skinceuticals and Kiehl's- just not my format of funds, I'm still for creamy textures.
How wonderful it is that technology does not stand still and the times when you had to apply 50 different creams on your face to keep you young and look good are long gone. Most foundations now contain SPF and a fresh complexion is now a protector for us. We invite you to familiarize yourself with our selection of effective foundations with varying degrees of protection.
WHY DO YOU NEED SUN PROTECTION?
The answer is simple: to protect your own health and beauty. I think I won’t discover America if I remember the malignant diseases and allergies that can provoke an excess of sunlight. And the sun ages us. Therefore, it is very important not to forget to protect our skin not only in the summer on the beach, but also while driving a car in a traffic jam. Tone cream in this case - just a find.

1. Vichy Normaderm BB Cream
Just a great product! It has a very light texture and glides on well. It is easy to apply, does not instantly harden into a mask, rather, this cream is more like a moisturizing day cream. Of course, it will not mask noticeable imperfections, because it lays down in a very thin layer. But on the other hand, it creates such an effect that the skin itself becomes even and naturally radiant. Even, in principle, does not require powder - such a light tone that does not turn the face into a mask. The only point - you need to choose your tone, because the cream does not adapt to the color of the skin. It smells delicious, the aroma is a bit like perfume.
2. Erborian CC Cream
When squeezed onto the hand, it has a white color with small black grains. Already when applied to the skin, its tone appears. Not suitable for very fair skin as it is quite dark. To adjust its tone, you can mix it with your regular day cream, preferably the same brand. So you can avoid unexpected reactions, and the care effect will only increase. The CC cream applies and blends easily. Has a subtle nice smell. It is not felt on the face, with it the skin has become more velvety to the touch. The result is a rested, and in the case of fair skin, even a slightly tanned look.
3. Foundation Eveline
In general, the cream lays down well and perfectly moisturizes the skin without leaving a feeling of tightness. The texture is not too liquid, but not quite dense, so it is applied conveniently and quickly. There is no fragrance, which, of course, can be attributed to the pluses. It covers bruises and slight redness well. The bottle says that the cream is mattifying, but if you have rather oily skin, the matting effect will not last long.
4. BB Cream Biotherm
It has a light texture and spreads evenly. Blends seamlessly with skin tone and adjusts easily to enhance complexion. A nice bonus - after removal, the skin becomes renewed and toned, which means that this foundation works great.
5. BB cream SPF 20 Babor
Its texture is light, weightless, there are no fragrances, but there is a pleasant, barely perceptible aroma. The cream is applied very easily and evenly, and we could not believe our eyes, this cream just perfectly adapts to the skin color! The borders are not visible at all, and the complexion is fresh and radiant. This is a really smart cream.
6. CC cream L "Occitane
Flawlessly masks minor imperfections, but it is completely invisible on the skin. Light and moisturizing, upon application it activates the particles with pigment and visibly improves the complexion. Keeps until the evening. And the gentle smell of peony has done its job - you can safely spend the whole summer with it!
7. Teint Couture Balm Givenchy
It has a creamy texture, not liquid and not dense, something in between. It applies very easily and can be applied directly with your fingers. It is comfortable to wear, you do not notice its presence on the face. Nice scent, like all Givenchy products. Gives the appearance of being hydrated and well-groomed skin, but does not completely hide all the imperfections of the skin - that's why it is a balm. The shade was darker than the desired one, but it's okay, for a while after the vacation - it's the best!
8. Premium BB cream, Dr.Jart
It is quite dense in texture, but at the same time it adapts surprisingly to the natural skin tone. Well masks minor imperfections, gives a slight glow. It is not felt on the skin, it is quickly absorbed and does not “hooligan” during the day, namely, it does not stain clothes and does not change the shade.
9. Sleek MakeUP CC Cream
It has a very pleasant smell, soft and light in texture. Applied without any problems. It doesn't feel on the skin either. It does not cover everything, but in general, for people with a minimum amount of imperfections, it is very suitable.
10. Yves Rocher BB Cream
It has a pleasant unobtrusive aroma. It evens out the skin tone well, but you need to be careful with it, you apply a little more and it will be hard for your skin underneath. Therefore, with such a product it takes time, you can not apply it without looking and run. It requires elaboration, careful shading.
11. Light foundation with a velvety effect NARS
A good tint pleasant aroma. The texture is a little greasy, but it is easy and quick to apply. Moisturizes, hides all the bumps and redness. True, at the same time it forms a mask, the face under it almost does not breathe. This cream is good for photo shoots.
12. Vichy Dermablend Foundation, 15 Opal
Perfect for framing. It has a velvety texture, dries very quickly and turns into a matte mask (in a good way), so you need to apply quickly. It adjusts to the skin tone and evens out the skin so that it seems like a “photoshop” is built into it, but the most pleasant thing is that it is matte and there is no oily sheen. Perfectly covers everything you need. "Friends" with powder and blush, in combination with them makes the face just perfect. It has an unobtrusive smell, suitable for capricious girls who do not like decorative cosmetics to have strong aromas.
13. Anti-aging cream with tonal effect SPF 30 Pevonia
It has a delicate aroma, consonant with the aroma of Diorissimo perfume. Applying to the skin is a pleasure. It has a high sun protection factor, which is very important in summer period. It tightens the skin well and works very effectively in problem areas. Adapts to skin tone while maintaining your natural glow.
14. BB cream with SPF 30, tone 2 nature, Essence
In the summer, a high protection factor of 30 is an excellent bonus, since there are quite a few “happy” owners of very fair skin in Russia. The first effect after squeezing the cream on the hand was not very joyful. The texture at first glance seemed dense, but the product is well and evenly distributed on the skin, quickly absorbed. For natural tone this BB is too dark, but when shading it adapts well to the skin color, small redness and irregularities masked perfectly. There is no obvious border between "own" and "toned" skin. There are no fragrances in this “bibishka” at all (but this is a plus for girls with sensitive skin), but at the same time it has some kind of specific sourish aroma (everything was in order with the expiration date).
15. Toning fluid " perfect skin» SPF 20 Caudalie
With a very pleasant aroma and light texture. Removes redness, visually hides pores and improves skin tone. Fits like a second skin. Leaves no oiliness, skin becomes soft and tender with it.
16. Erborian BB cream
It has a light pleasant aroma, from this the process of applying BB turns into a real beauty sacrament. Superbly distributed, levels imperfections and keeps perfectly. Works flawlessly in any weather, leaves no marks on white collars and miraculously refreshes the complexion.
17. La Roche Posay BB Cream
Good product, moisturizes, makes the skin soft and silky. The texture of the cream is very light, easy to apply and spread. Literally one minute is enough - and the skin of the face in perfect condition. Masking abilities are rather weak, but explosives are not designed to mask the skin. He has other tasks. Bottom line: the skin color is natural and radiant, minor imperfections are hidden, significant ones have become less noticeable.
18. Stellary CC Cream
Cream with a pronounced smell, the texture is quite oily, but is distributed evenly on the skin. It masks well enough, but it feels like the skin is in a "bunker", practically does not breathe. In general, this is a good matting agent, but it still dried out the skin. Another downside to this product is the packaging. A tube with an inconvenient dispenser, you can’t wait for the cream from it. I had to remove the lid and squeeze it onto a sponge.
19. CC-cream "Black Pearl"
It has a beautiful matte layer, suitable for oily skin. Evenly lays down, well masks bruises around the eyes. Easily rinsed off with water. After removal, the skin looks renewed and well-groomed.
20. La Roche Posay CC Cream
The consistency is not liquid, closer to thick. Together with a convenient dispenser, this product is very economical in terms of consumption. The aroma is pleasant, floral. It moisturizes the skin well, you don’t even need to apply a moisturizer, you can directly on the skin (manufacturers advise doing so). The only negative is that it does not mask irregularities well, but at the same time it removes redness well and creates a well-groomed skin. beautiful tone. It's nice that the product contains SPF 30 protection, which means you don't have to worry about age spots with it.
21. Smashbox CC Cream
Tone cream Smashbox behaves "decently", is quite easy to apply, but you need to make sure that there are no forgotten traces left out of sight, because it dries quickly. Moisturizes well. The only important nuance worth knowing is a light shade of tan (if you suddenly don’t guess with a shade and take a tone darker), so make sure that there is no ugly border on the neck. Another plus is that it smells good.
22. Ton Mattin Vivienne Sabo Foundation
Liquid product, easy to apply. The smell is sharp, chemical. A bit sticky in texture but dries quickly and applies well. It improves skin tone, removes pallor, does not lie like a mask, perfectly levels the pores, they become visible only if you look very closely. Mattifies superbly. Excellent value for money and quality.
23. Stellary Foundation
The texture is thick, but still great. Lies evenly, perfectly masks imperfections, redness and small pimples. He keeps steadfastly - he survived in one day a date, a meeting, and a meeting with friends. There is only one minus - this foundation does not like heat, but in hot weather it is better not to use a dense tone (this is not very good for pores).
24. Tint Du Soleil SPF 30 Sunforgettable
A cool product for those who need results here and now, plus for the whole day. Lays down evenly, quickly adjusts to the skin and evens out minor imperfections. It can literally be used on the run, when you are in a hurry somewhere, and there is absolutely no time to restore beauty.
25. CC cream with SPF 30, tone 2 nature, Essence
It has a fairly dense texture, while being applied and distributed on the skin as well as its lighter counterpart BB. Of the pluses, I would like to highlight its unsurpassed disguise. It perfectly hides skin imperfections, does not require additional help in the form of concealers and powders. But, there is also a minus - it gives a rather dense coating and is “naughty”, it does not really adapt to skin color, it remains noticeable on the face. But, nevertheless, the effect of the mask, as from some tonal products, was not noticed behind him.
26. Foundation Extreme SPF 30 Oriflame
Light pleasant cream with a pleasant floral aroma. Convenient tube small size. The texture is light and easy to apply. The skin underneath breathes. Suitable for dry skin as it moisturizes very well. Does not stain clothes, can be applied by hand. Despite the lightness, it mattifies the skin well. Leaves no oily sheen. The skin looks natural, while redness and irregularities do not appear.
27. Burberry Foundation
He has a very beautiful bottle, which is pleasant and comfortable to hold in your hands. The lid closes tightly, which means that the cream will never stain the cosmetic bag. It is squeezed out just as conveniently, dosed, which allows you to use the product to the very last drop. The tone is well applied and easily blended on the face. Girls with very fair skin and you should choose the most light shades. If you didn’t guess with the tone, it can be used as a contouring tool. During the day, the cream does not roll down, but keeps well. Does not have a pronounced odor.
I couldn't refuse to test the foundation Le Teint Touche Éclat by Yves Saint Laurent- the world has been waiting for its release for 10 years! Created on the basis of the brand's main beauty bestseller, the famous highlighter concealer Touche Eclat, the new foundation was supposed to be the lightest, most delicate, but at the same time ideally masking imperfections. What could be better for summer? Looking forward to the test. A golden box, a classic bottle with a dispenser, a pleasant texture - at first glance, very liquid. Easy to apply and very natural effect. The face looks lively and fresh, with a “light wet glow” that is now fashionable. Frankly, I, the owner of combination skin, got used to getting rid of any shine. Now I'm getting used to a new theory - in the summer, as makeup artists convince me, matting is not necessary so as not to overload the face. Well, I try not to use powder with the new product, maintaining a natural, slightly damp effect, but I still remove the excess with matting wipes. And yes - the best shade, in my opinion, is delicate beige number 20 - it will suit literally everyone. I put 4 with a big plus.
In contrast to the previous test, I tried a fundamentally different product -.
Firstly, Shiseido is my favorite brand, and out of habit, I chose what is close and understandable to me - a classic foundation with a high SPF level. The tool evens out the tone of the face, slightly mattifies - in a word, it does exactly what the product of this category should do well. Special mention deserves its "complete set" - an additional box with a sponge, which is designed to help evenly apply and distribute the cream. The cream is ideal for those who have healthy skin, without irritation and peeling. If, like me, you don't flawless skin, then it will not lie very evenly on problem areas due to the dense texture. At the same time, two undoubted pluses bribed me - the product is very comfortable on the face, and even after a long stay in the sun, the makeup remains fresh. In general, my rating is a solid 4!
Sabina Agayeva, editor of the "Stars" and "Lifestyle" sections of the site
The corrective tone fluid isn't the first La Roche-Posay product I've tried, but that made the experience just as interesting. My skin cannot be called smooth, so I prefer classic foundations to light fluids - they are more elastic and able to mask imperfections, you just need manual dexterity and the right sponge. But I got exactly the fluid - liquid Toleriane Teint, ideal for summer because you almost do not feel it on the skin, as well as the content high level SPF filters. The tool turned out to be very comfortable and light, and it was not visible on the skin. However, visible defects under the cover of nude texture have almost disappeared. Tightness, dryness, the effect of a "mask" was not observed, although the product mattes very thoroughly. All the "fault" - thermal water in the formula, which is responsible for the missing moisture. I would highly recommend this product for those with sensitive skin. My rating is 5!
Despite promises, the circles of fatigue under my eyes could not be removed by any advanced cream. There is only one way out: mask them appropriate tone. The problem is that the area around the eyes is very mobile, and therefore the “mask” of foundation is immediately visible. I will not dissemble, saying that the foundation coped with the task by 100%. It was not possible to hide the blue under the eyes, but in general, the novelty proved to be excellent - the foundation cannot be seen in any light. It stays on pretty well and applies as quickly as a regular face cream. If the skin is in good condition and you only need a slight glow, you can apply with at least eyes closed without fear of overdoing it. 4 with a small minus.
Ambitiously naming new scale corrective means Teint Ideal(Perfect Tone), Vichy Laboratories once again set the bar high in their quest to please sensitive skin and, admittedly, succeeded. Being a long-time fan of the brand, I am becoming more and more convinced that Vichy does not promise "special effects" unfounded. From new series I undertook to test the corrective fluid for myself - it is more liquid, weightless and transparent than a cream (in summer you don’t want dense textures). I was satisfied: the skin tone evened out amazingly, and the liquid silk in the composition allowed the skin to breathe without clogging the pores. But this is not the main thing. For the first time, the creators of the foundation promise a therapeutic effect: the quality of the skin should improve after 15 days of daily use. Let's check: I continue the experiment!

It so happened historically that if La Prairie products are sent to the editorial office for a test, they are automatically sent to me for a test - everyone knows my tender love for Swiss brand products, especially for the Skin Caviar line, which contains caviar extract and a cellular complex. I did not specifically read the press release in order to make my review as objectively as possible, while I did not even doubt that the foundation would suit me. Actually, it happened, but not immediately. I really like it when a concealer is attached to the product - I don’t like to buy separately, so as not to miss the color. At first, the concealer built into the lid seemed too light to me, but it turned out that it was thanks to this that it hides minor errors simply brilliantly. And I apply it with my fingers, without further ado with brushes and special devices. The very same means of medium coverage - neither liquid nor dense. It lays down evenly, merges with the skin, hides the pores well and does not give unnecessary my combination skin greasy sheen. I chose the shade Sand Beige - natural and warm. In my opinion, it is warm shades that make the complexion healthier - dramatic pallor does not suit me at all. As for the assessment, I give the La Prarie foundation a five - I'm sure that, apart from not the most convenient bottle without a dispenser, the product simply has no flaws.
Recently, all the products of the Korean brand Erborian have become a real revelation for me. Legend has it that the brand created its know-how thanks to a mix of Asian traditions and French classic beauty techniques. At the junction of fundamentally different approaches, a wonderful marketing legend was born, but even skeptics like me, who are not very fond of conceptual beauty stories, are forced to admit that Erborian cosmetics really work and even destroy stereotypes. So, rejecting the trend called BB creams, ironically now I can't live without Erborian BB cream with golden ginseng. Firstly, the multifunctional product cares for the skin as well as the most powerful serum - the magical preparations of Korean herbs work wonders with the skin. Secondly, thanks to the decorative effect, a feeling of a baby-skin face is created - the illusion of a face without make-up with even, fresh, beautiful and rested skin. This summer, I don’t paint with anything else - the feeling that my face is resting, and the image “a la naturel” suits me, indescribable! On the wave of adoration, she drew attention to an even more newfangled trend - CC-cream of the same brand, as well as a special BB-foam for washing. My rating: 5 with three pluses.

To be honest, in the summer I stop using foundation. There are two reasons. The first is that in summer the skin of the face becomes lightly tanned and small irregularities are easily masked with powder. The second is the eternal stereotype that in summer any foundation will feel like a mask on the face. My conviction began to dissipate as soon as I read the summary of the test sample: the product provides a flawless tone without the effect of a mask due to the minimum amount of powder particles, but at the same time has high wear thanks to a shell of plant-based amino acids. The information about the innovative formula seemed very convincing to me: the extract of moringa seeds in the composition fights against all negative factors, which suppress the radiance of the skin. In addition, the miracle ingredient powerfully protects against sunlight. So, the first thing I want to note is a bottle with a convenient dispenser that allows you to use the product economically. The texture is soft and light. The product is easily and evenly distributed over the surface of the skin. Some of the components are absorbed, the other creates a film, giving an even and radiant tone to the face. Perhaps this film is the only dubious moment in this story, but here's what is surprising: throughout the day, the product steadfastly kept on the face and did not create the slightest discomfort. I rarely change my beliefs, but this was the reason to include foundation in my summer beauty arsenal. With a little stretch, I put 5 points.

I will not be very original: in the summer I try to keep the amount of cosmetics to a minimum. But no matter how much I want to say goodbye to tonal products completely, I and my problem skin can’t afford it. I can definitely be called the most devoted fan of any cosmetics with the BB prefix, so with special trepidation I undertook to test the BB cream from the American brand Dr. Brandt Skincare suitable for all skin types. I want to immediately note the high degree of sun protection - SPF 30. Of course, a product with such a protection factor could only be sent to me - the editors are aware that the sun is contraindicated for my very fair skin. As soon as I applied the cream, it seemed a little dark to me (this is my eternal problem!), But after I evenly distributed it all over my face, the product literally “dissolved” and became completely invisible. At the same time, the cream adequately coped with all my redness and uneven skin tone. My verdict: - a high-quality multifunctional product that masks skin imperfections well, does not clog pores and looks natural on the face. 5!
I've heard a lot about CC creams, an improved clone of popular BB creams. positive feedback, but the hands did not reach to try the means of this category. And here is luck! Among the many varieties foundation creams offered for editorial test, I was able to see a small tube of Glow with brightening CC cream from a well-loved brand Dr. Brandt Skin Care. In terms of its consistency, the product seemed to me much less dense than the BB cream, which I wrote about earlier, which is undoubtedly a plus for the skin condition in hot summer. But the main advantage of the corrective CC cream, created on the basis of a complex of ruby crystals and vitamin C, is that it really gives the face a natural and healthy glow. The cream is quickly absorbed, does not create the effect of a “sticky” face and keeps perfectly throughout the day. I put 4 - the format seemed very innovative to me.

Foundation is the make-up product that I cannot refuse under any circumstances. Regardless of the weather, time of day or situation. Even if I'm shamelessly late for important meeting, I’m not going to have breakfast, but I’ll definitely apply foundation. Therefore, I was particularly enthusiastic about the editorial test of new products. So, my samples are Smashbox Camera Ready BB Cream and L "Oreal Paris Nude Magique Eau De Teint.
With the onset of summer, the texture of foundation becomes lighter, and the composition is enriched with the obligatory SPF filter. The ideal embodiment of both the first and second qualities became for me. I heard a lot of positive reviews about this brand, but I have not used Smashbox products before. Manufacturers promise a wonderful result "five in one": moisturizing, protection, skin improvement, oil control and even wrinkle smoothing. Let's check! The product is applied easily, perfectly distributed over the skin, and merges with natural shade. It does not hide serious flaws, but it really evens out the overall tone, giving the face a fresh glow. The cream is absolutely not felt on the skin, does not clog pores, but at the same time reliably protects against negative impact sun rays. In general, I am satisfied with our acquaintance and will continue to use the brand's products with pleasure. Definitely 5 points.
I solemnly handed over the second sample to my mother, since the chosen shade of Naturel for me, snow white, turned out to be a bit dark. Main "chip" L "Oreal Paris Nude Magique Eau De Teint- its lightest texture. This is not a cream or even a milk, but a liquid that, in some inexplicable way, is instantly absorbed upon contact with the skin, evening out the tone of the face and matting it. As a result, you get the coveted effect "after the holidays", when it seems to be not special makeup, but you look rested and tanned.
Owners of dry skin, please take into account: the cream emphasizes peeling. This is perhaps the only questionable point that I was able to identify. Otherwise, the product left an extremely positive impression, my mother especially appreciated the fact that even in the heat, the L "Oreal foundation reliably protects the face from oily sheen. The cream coped with the task for four.
Jane Iredale. The funds turned out to be unusual format: under the soft sponge there is a protection that needs to be carefully removed before application, but "neatness" is not my strong point, so loose powder I tried it right from the desktop, dipping the sponge into the covered keyboard. If you do not take into account the format that is inconvenient for me, the powder deserves a solid five. The tool gently lays down, perfectly matting the face, without creating the effect of a "mask". The product does not contain any fragrances, which will additionally please lovers of eco-cosmetics. And one more thing: for the first time I found an alternative to foundation - this powder in the summer may well perform the function of "2 in 1".
The next day I tested the mattifying powder. I rarely buy beauty novelties, I always use my favorite proven products. But this powder has earned a place of honor in my makeup bag. Firstly, as is often the case with this brand, this is not just a mirror, but a chic large mirror, plus an additional compartment for the sponge. Despite the fact that the color was a tone darker than mine, the powder lay very evenly and perfectly figured out the oily sheen. I'm going on vacation soon, so I can't wait for the effect sea tan to emphasize it with a new tool to the fullest! I fluctuate between 4+ and 5-.

Features of foundation with SPF 50
Light-eyed blondes - representatives of I-III phototypes - should first of all think about buying a foundation with the option of sun protection. If you still do not know which phototype you are, take our test, and after that choose cosmetics.
The main feature of tonal products with SPF is that the actual alignment of skin tone is a kind of bonus, an addition to sun protection, and often other functions:
the fight against imperfections;
prevention of pigmentation;
hydration.

Sunscreen foundation tends to have a lighter, more fluid texture. And as a care product, it does not require the application of a primer.
In a word, this is a tool for the summer, when a powerful sun protection factor is absolutely necessary. In addition, the usual foundation may be too dense for the hot season, when the skin sweats and shines more often.
To summarize, foundation with SPF 50 is needed in the following cases:
with increased photosensitivity (typical for fair-skinned people);
to protect against hyperpigmentation;
as functional cosmetics (protection from the sun and prevention of wrinkles caused by photoaging).

Sun filters
Foundation may contain both physical and chemical filters. Medical expert of the brand Biotherm Elena Alekseeva explains: “Physical filters do not penetrate the skin, but work on the surface, like tinting pigments. These include zinc oxide (Zinc Oxyde) and titanium dioxide (Titanium Dioxyde). In the list of chemical filters you will find avobenzone (avobenzone), oxybenzone (oxybenzone), octyl salicylate (octyl salicylate) and others.
Antioxidants
Humidifiers
Combining moisturizing ingredients with sun filters absolutely logical. Under the influence of UV rays, the skin loses moisture, which weakens the protective hydrolipidic mantle.
