White foundation adjusts to skin color

In the catalogs of some manufacturers I saw a product - a foundation that adapts to the skin tone. It is presented in only one color, the price for it is considerable, as for a full-fledged foundation cream. Has anyone used these products? Is there any point in buying them? Or is “matching the tone” just another successful advertising ploy, and nothing more?

This is probably a BB cream, I like it in my navel

Not a BB, but rather a CC cream. It really adapts to your skin tone, unlike foundations. It's hot now, so SS is better, it's lightweight, it comes with high spf, but it's not a foundation that can cover everything. And it makes the skin slightly light, but if there are imperfections, it will not hide it.

BB and CC creams adapt to skin color. Not everything is true. You can find Korean ones inexpensively. The products are good and take care of the skin at the same time. I like

Still, most often there are tones, since the skin color is too different (from light to dark, such a universal product cannot be good for all skin types, anyway it will only suit one). I use the mattifying fluid from Bell Super Mat Cower Make-up - it blends perfectly with the skin, is not noticeable on the face, but it evens out the tone super and also hides imperfections.

It really does look like a cc cream. I use this (although I have long been disappointed in expensive cosmetics, I buy a French brand, but inexpensive - Vivienne Szabo. The tone is called elixir cream). It looks invisible on the skin and blends in with it. Plus there is a nutritional composition (vitamins, wheat germ oil, panthenol, hyaluronic acid). But specifically, it is sold in three tones - I take the lightest one.

The optimal skin tone is adjusted by those products that are applied in a thin layer and, under the influence of the temperature of your face, heat up and merge with it. For example, a mineral base has this property. In general, mineral cosmetics completely merge with the skin and visually make it almost flawless, while being completely invisible. I’ve been using it for 6 years now, and no foundation gives such an effect - you can vary the coverage density, there are different products for any skin type! I take it from Nina, she will always advise and help with the choice:

To know everything about cosmetics and its benefits, I took a course as a make-up artist at the La-makeup school. There the teachers explained to me what and how is suitable for my face, but now I can emphasize all the advantages of my face and remove the disadvantages

1. Vichy Normaderm BB cream

Simply a great product! It has a very light texture and applies well. It is easy to apply and does not immediately harden into a mask; rather, this cream is more like a moisturizing day cream. Of course, it will not disguise noticeable imperfections, because it applies in a very thin layer. But it creates such an effect that the skin itself becomes smooth and naturally radiant. In principle, it doesn’t even require powder - it’s such a light tone that doesn’t turn your face into a mask. The only point is that you need to choose your tone, because the cream does not adapt to your skin color. It smells delicious, the aroma is a bit like perfume.

2. Erborian CC Cream

When squeezed onto your 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 the shade is quite dark. To adjust its tone, you can mix it with your regular day cream, preferably the same brand. This way you can avoid unexpected reactions, and the skincare effect will only increase. The CC cream is easy to apply and blend. It has a subtle pleasant smell. It is not noticeable on the face; it makes the skin feel more velvety to the touch. The result is a rested, and in the case of fair skin, even a slightly tanned look.

3. Eveline foundation

Overall, the cream applies well and perfectly moisturizes the skin without leaving a feeling of tightness. The texture is not too liquid, but not quite dense either, so it is applied conveniently and quickly. There is no aroma, which, of course, can be considered a plus. Covers bruises and minor redness well. The bottle says that the cream is mattifying, but if you have fairly oily skin, the mattifying effect will not last long.

4. Biotherm BB cream

It has a light texture and applies evenly. Completely blends with skin tone and easily adjusts, improving complexion. A nice bonus is that after removal, the skin becomes renewed and tightened, which means this foundation works great.

5. BB cream SPF 20 Babor

Its texture is light, weightless, there are no fragrances, but there is a pleasant, subtle aroma. The cream is applied very easily and evenly, and we couldn’t believe our eyes, this cream simply adapts perfectly to the skin color! The border is not visible at all, and the complexion is fresh and radiant. This is a really smart cream.

6. L’Occitane CC Cream

Perfectly masks minor imperfections, but is completely invisible on the skin. Light and moisturizing, upon application it activates pigment particles and visibly improves complexion. Lasts until the evening. And the delicate scent of peony did its job - you can safely spend the whole summer with it!

7. Teint Couture Balm Givenchy

It has a creamy consistency, not liquid or dense, something in between. It applies very easily and can be applied directly with your fingers. It's comfortable to wear and you don't notice it's on your face. Pleasant aroma, like all Givenchy products. It creates the appearance of moisturized and well-groomed skin, but does not completely hide all skin imperfections - that’s why it’s a balm. The shade turned out to be darker than needed, but it’s okay, for the time after the vacation - that’s it!

8. Premium BB cream, Dr.Jart

It is quite dense in texture, but at the same time it amazingly adapts to the natural skin tone. Well disguises minor imperfections and gives a slight shine. It is not noticeable on the skin, is quickly absorbed and does not “disturb” during the day, namely, it does not stain clothes and does not change shade.

9. Sleek MakeUP CC Cream

It has a very pleasant smell, the texture is delicate and light. Applies without any problems. You can't feel it on the skin either. It doesn’t cover everything, but in general, it’s very suitable for people with minimal imperfections.

10. Yves Rocher BB cream

It has a pleasant unobtrusive aroma. It evens out skin tone well, but you need to be careful with it, apply a little more and it will be hard on your skin underneath. Therefore, with such a product it takes time, you cannot apply it without looking and run. It requires elaboration and careful shading.

11. Light foundation with a velvety effect NARS

A good toner with a pleasant aroma. The texture is a little oily, but it applies easily and quickly. Moisturizes, hides all unevenness 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 working on camera. It has a velvety structure, hardens very quickly and turns into a matte mask (in a good way), so it needs to be applied quickly. It adapts to the skin tone and evens out the skin so that it seems like “Photoshop” is built into it, but the best part is that it’s matte and doesn’t have any greasy shine. Perfectly covers everything you need. “Friends” with powder and blush, in combination with them it makes the face simply perfect. It has an unobtrusive scent, suitable for capricious girls who do not like decorative cosmetics to have strong aromas.

13. Anti-aging cream with tinted effect SPF 30 Pevonia

It has a subtle aroma, similar to the aroma of Diorissimo perfume. Applying it to the skin is a pleasure. It has a high sun protection factor, which is very important in the summer. It tightens the skin well and works very effectively in problem areas. Adapts to skin tone, 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 in Russia there are quite a lot of “lucky” owners of very fair skin. The first effect after squeezing the cream onto my hand was not very happy. The texture at first glance seemed dense, but the product is well and evenly distributed on the skin and is quickly absorbed. For a natural tone, this BB is too dark, but when shaded, it adapts well to the skin color; it disguises minor redness and unevenness perfectly. There is no obvious boundary between “your own” and “toned” skin. This “bibishka” has no fragrances at all (but this is a plus for girls with sensitive skin), but at the same time it has some specific sour aroma (the expiration date was okay).

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. It does not leave any greasy feeling, the skin becomes soft and tender.

16. Erborian BB cream

It has a light pleasant aroma, which makes the process of applying BB a real beauty mystery. It distributes perfectly, eliminates imperfections and stays on perfectly. It works flawlessly in any weather, leaves no marks on white collars and miraculously refreshes the complexion.

17. La Roche-Posay BB cream

A good product, moisturizes, makes the skin soft and silky. The texture of the cream is very light, easily applied and distributed. Literally one minute is enough - and your facial skin is in perfect condition. The camouflage abilities are quite weak, but BB is not intended to camouflage the skin. He has other tasks. The result: the skin color is natural and radiant, minor imperfections are hidden, significant ones have become less noticeable.

18. CC cream Stellary

The cream has a distinct scent and is quite oily in texture, but is distributed evenly on the skin. It masks quite well, but it feels like the skin is in a “bunker” and practically doesn’t breathe. Overall, this is a good mattifying product, but it did dry out the skin. Another disadvantage of this product is the packaging. A tube with an inconvenient dispenser; you can’t get any cream out of it. I had to remove the lid and squeeze it onto a sponge.

19. CC cream “Black Pearl”

It has a wonderful matte layer, suitable for oily skin. Applies evenly and covers bruises around the eyes well. Easily washed 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. Coupled with a convenient dispenser, this product is very economical in consumption. The aroma is pleasant, floral. It moisturizes the skin well, you don’t even need to apply moisturizer, you can do it directly on the skin (manufacturers advise doing so). The only negative is that it does not mask unevenness well, but at the same time it removes redness well and creates a well-groomed, beautiful tone for the skin. It’s nice that the product contains SPF 30 protection, which means you don’t have to worry about age spots with it.

21. CC cream Smashbox

Concealer Smashbox behaves “decently”, is quite easy to apply, but you need to make sure that no forgotten marks are left out of sight, since it dries quickly. Moisturizes well. The only important nuance that is worth knowing is a light shade of tan (unless you get the shade right and go a shade darker), so make sure that there is no unsightly border on your neck. Another plus is that it smells nice.

22. Ton Mattin Vivienne Sabo foundation

Liquid product, pleasant and easy to apply. The smell is pungent, chemical. A little sticky in texture, but it dries quickly and applies well. Improves skin tone, removes pallor, does not become a mask, perfectly levels out pores, they become visible only if you look very closely. Excellent matte finish. Excellent value for money and quality.

23. Stellary foundation

The texture is thick yet classy. It goes on smoothly and perfectly masks imperfections, redness and small pimples. He holds firm - he survived a date, a meeting, and a meeting with friends in one day. There is only one minus - this foundation does not like heat, but in hot weather it is better not to use a dense foundation (it is not very good for pores).

24. Tint Du Soleil SPF 30 Sunforgettable foundation

A great product for those who need results here and now, plus for the whole day. It lies smoothly, quickly adapts to the skin and evens out minor imperfections. You can literally use it on the run, when you are in a hurry somewhere, and there is absolutely no time for beauty.

25. CC cream with SPF 30, tone 2 nature, Essence

It has a fairly dense texture, but is applied and distributed on the skin just as well as its lighter brother BB. Among the advantages, I would like to highlight its unsurpassed camouflage. It perfectly hides skin imperfections and does not require additional help in the form of concealers and powder. But there is also a minus - it gives a fairly dense coverage and is “capricious”, does not really adapt to the color of the skin, and remains noticeable on the face. But, nevertheless, the mask effect, as with some foundations, was not noticed.

26. Foundation Extreme SPF 30 Oriflame

Light, pleasant cream with a pleasant floral aroma. Convenient small tube. 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 its lightness, it mattifies the skin well. Does not leave a greasy shine. The skin looks natural, without redness or unevenness.

27. Burberry foundation

It has a very beautiful bottle that is pleasant and comfortable to hold in your hands. The lid closes tightly, which means the cream will never stain your cosmetic bag. It is squeezed out just as conveniently, in measured doses, which allows you to use the product until the very last drop. The tone applies well and blends easily across the face. Girls with very fair skin should choose the lightest shades. If you don't get the tone right, it can be used as a contouring product. During the day, the cream does not slide off and holds well. Does not have a pronounced odor.

We will not scare you by saying that foundation can think and surpasses Wasserman in IQ level. So why does he need intelligence?

You've probably heard about “smart” foundations. Recently, every self-respecting brand has been releasing them. The creators claim that these foundations are endowed with intelligence, are capable, fulfill all her whims and adapt to any pigment. But is this really what happens? How do such foundations differ from those that “can’t think”?

We can say with full confidence that the era of “smart” foundation creams began with the light hand of the Koreans - with the invention of BB cream in Asian countries. Initially, it was a product with a powerful composition of components that helped restore the skin of patients after plastic surgery and harsh cosmetic procedures such as medium peeling or laser resurfacing.

But the product contained zinc, which covered the face with a white mask and turned a person into a participant in the Kabuki theater. Then it was decided to add pigments to the product and turn it into a foundation.

This tone not only hid shortcomings, but also healed. Subsequently, the BB cream received a number of changes, including in the texture - it became less dense, reflective particles were added to the elixir, which visually create an ideal facial contour, and the care composition began to be developed depending on the problems and skin type. So the line included creams for oily, dry, and aging dermis.

It is not surprising that BB creams have pushed their less intelligent brothers out of the market. After all, in fact, they replace both the care cream and the foundation, freeing up space on the dressing table and in the cosmetic bag.

Representatives of the European market were not satisfied with such competition, they began to create their own foundations. Now “smart people” are surrounded by a bunch of myths, which we decided to look into.

It is believed that foundation is so smart that it can adapt to the color of your skin, and you don’t have to constantly choose the right shade of the product.

In fact, everything is not like that. The foundation dissolves slightly during the day under the influence of sebum, and it begins to “match” the skin tone.

Therefore, you should not pay attention to the marketing ploy; foundation must be selected according to shade. To do this, apply several tones from darkest to lightest to the transition area from the chin to the neck. See which cream completely blends with your skin tone - this is your choice.

Indeed, this is so. The composition of “smart” foundations is aimed at solving various skin problems. The product can be loaded with peptides and enzymes that easily, antibacterial components that fight inflammation, powerful moisturizing complexes that eliminate thirst for dry skin.

The latest generation foundation creams have a special structure. Their coating is quite dense, so it hides all imperfections, but is also lightweight. It does not create a mask effect, does not clog pores, and allows the skin to breathe freely.

It evens out, but this is only a visual effect. The cream hides all defects and irregularities thanks to the effect of optical illusion. The product contains reflective particles of different sizes. They create the illusion of smooth and beautiful skin when exposed to light.
