Ponds White Beauty BB & Fairness Cream [For Oily Skin]
Almost all the creams and foundations from Ponds come in tube form, so does this one.
Ponds White Beauty BB & Fairness Cream may look thick but it blends smoothly with the skin and takes no time in absorbing.
You just have to take a small amount of the cream and spread it evenly all over the face and neck.
With SPF 30 it protects the skin from UV rays, so it can be worn comfortably throughout the day. A good thing about Ponds White Beauty BB & Fairness Cream is that it does not feel heavy on the face and you won’t even realize that you are wearing something on your face.
However, it only comes in natural cover but I guess it is suitable for our Pakistani skin tones. You won’t find something like this in a pretty packing with nominal price.
Wearing makeup has become a necessity today, so why not get the makeup look with a well-balanced and result oriented BB cream.
However, get the shades as per your skin tone or you might leave a white cast on your face.
Finding the Right BB Cream
As with any product, sometimes it takes a bit of trial and error to find the perfect BB cream for your skin tone and skin type. "Most BB creams are designed to offer a lightweight coverage that primes and corrects, but these formula differences are indicated so you can find the best product for your skin type," says Sir John.
- Oily/acne-prone: "If you have acne-prone or oily skin, opt for a matte formula that's oil-free," Sir John says. If you have extra oily skin, Dorn suggest trying a CC cream, as it has "more coverage and more of a matte finish."
- Dry: Sir John suggests going for a more moisturizing formula with a dewy finish. BB creams are great for those with dry skin, who can look for creams combined with hyaluronic acid or ceramides for added moisture, says Nazarian.
- Mature: According to Dorn, BB cream is amazing if you have mature skin, as it has skin illuminators and moisturizers included for a youthful appearance without using a heavy amount of product.
When it comes to finding a shade to match your skin tone, Nazarian says there's no need for a perfect match as the tone with a BB cream is incredibly sheer. "It’s really meant to offer super light coverage, and, therefore, often blends into most skin tones and does not need to match exactly," she says. "Some brands do offer a large range of shade options, but because of the classical nature as a light coverage product, many companies still only create a handful of colors." (If you need something darker, there are BB creams for dark skin tones.)
According to Dorn, the best way to find what suits you best is by applying the product you are testing to your jawline. "I like to use a color that is a touch deeper than a color that is too light. If you are between colors, you can always add a touch of concealer to brighten any areas," she says. "BB creams absorb well into the skin, but always make sure to blend well to ensure your skin has a warm, beautiful glow."
Cover blemishes and imperfections without irritation
If you have acne-prone skin and need to conceal blemishes, Velve says your skin could benefit from a BB cream. The soothing minerals often found in BB cream formulations are beneficial for treating blemishes.
“Acne-prone skin will also benefit from the lighter textured product that allows the skin to breathe as well as the shorter ingredient list,” she adds.
A typical drugstore brand of BB cream can contain up to 40 different ingredients, better than the 70+ ingredients that a separate moisturizer, foundation, and sunscreen can contain.
The short answer is yes, BB creams are good for all skin types, including oily, dry, acne-prone, and more. But there are a few caveats to point out.
The other caveat, says Velve, is finding BB creams for all skin tones.
“Women of color can have a harder time finding a BB shade that suits their skin, and if the match is not right, BB creams can look ashy, a quality of the mineral-based SPF ingredients that most formulations contain,” she explains.
You can use a BB cream as part of your daily routine in place of foundation.
If your skin tends to be oily, the moisturizer in a BB cream may be enough. But if you have normal or dry skin, you may want to apply a moisturizer before your BB cream.
Here are the steps Velve recommends for applying BB cream:
- Apply BB cream to cleansed skin after any additional serums or moisturizers.
- Use a foundation brush, sponge, or your fingers to apply the cream. Velve likes to use her fingers because they warm up the product and allow it to blend into the skin more easily. Let the product settle on your skin.
- Apply foundation for more coverage and concealer in any problem areas. BB cream doesn’t need to be powdered, but the concealed areas might need to be set with a bit of powder.
- Add an additional SPF product if you know you’ll be in the sun for long periods of time.
