Tarte BB Tinted Treatment 12-Hour Primer Broad Spectrum SPF 30 Sunscreen

I used to love wearing makeup through the first half of my twenties.As I hit my mid twenties, I didn't wear it as much.I switched over to Bare Minerals which lasted longer than liquid makeup and was kinder to my skin.As I hit my 30s, I just stopped wearing makeup all together but not for any particular reason at all.I think laziness.Just kidding.Actually, it's because I am so overwhelmed with all of my commitments (single parent, disabled child, work, college, etc. all the excuses).When I hit 35, I made myself a promise to fix myself up more often and I am trying! :)

My skin HATES liquid foundation these days.I itch and scratch and it's horrible!I am so uncomfortable with it.I did start using Lancome's mineral makeup (which I love but don't use often) but I wanted something a little less powdery for daily wear.I learned about BB cream online.I think one of the beauty bloggers or something.Also, I am a fan of K-Dramas and maybe I have this unrealistic expectation that my skin will look amazing like theirs.Kidding. Maybe not....

So, of course, my quest to find a perfect BB cream started.I tried L'oreals BB and that was AWFUL.It went on grayish and when it "settled", it looked ok but I itched like liquid foundation and I threw that to the side.I then found Tarte's BB cream and I am so glad I did.I love how little it takes to cover my face.I am extremely fair with red undertones and I ordered the Fair shade. I love how lightweight it is on my skin, NO ITCHING or IRRITATION AT ALL!, and most of all, I love how even my skin looks without looking made up.I just look like I have decent skin.Let me add, I have pocks on my cheeks due to acne along with large pores (this aging process bites!) and this doesn't cover the flaws but it does minimize the look of both the scars and pores.I am starting to get lines by my eyes and again, this does not draw any attention to the lines. If I need to build on this, I can.If I have plans after work, I can easily have a flawless look by using Lancome's translucent mineral powder over it and I am very happy with how I look!

I just received a bottle of MISSHA's perfect cover BB cream which is much heavier than Tarte's.So far, Tarte is the winner.I plan to try Skin79 and another one of MISSHA's soon!Once I do, I will update my review!

Very silky with buildable coverage. Does exactly what it says, even stayed on after a cardio session at the gym, liquid gold.
