Do you use a separate concealer underneath it as well? I went to the Clinique counter last fall asking for a concealer and the saleswoman sold me their "CC" cream along with an under eye concealer. I don't think the CC cream hides spots well enough for me.
-
Sometimes I use concealer with the clinique CC cream and sometimes I don't. BUT I definitely don't use clinique concealer, in my opinion it's just the same as foundation. I need something more heavy duty for these circles!!
-
I use a Missha BB cream with a separate undereye concealer, although I also thin out the BB cream with a little moisturizer to make it more like a tinted moisturizer.
-
I use tarte... Can't remember if it is bb or cc. I do not use separate concealer, but the cream is "buildable" so I do put a second layer of it under my eyes if I think I need it.
-
Yes, I do. I agree--I need a little extra coverage in some spots.
-
I do. I was convinced to try Bobbi Brown after my last BB cream thread, and I like it!
I have this cream: http://www.bobbibrowncosmetics.com/product/2336/26940/Makeup/Face/Foundation/Bobbi-To-Go--BB-Cream-SPF-35/FH13/index.tmpl
and I use this concealer:

I do. I use drugstore (Garnier) BB cream and MAC concealer.
-
I started using Bobbiel brown BB cream and it's enough coverage for me without having to use concealer. I believe a CC cream offers slightly less coverage than a BB cream...
I also started using a spot lightener and it's making a huge difference.
-
I use the Clinique bb/cc cream too; I do use a little extra concealer for undereye and side of my nose. I don't mind tho; if I'm just running out I wouldn't.
-
I use the Missha BB cream and Benefit Erase Paste concealer for under my eyes!
-
I use the Garnier BB cream and am HOOKED. I got the one for oily skin and now I don't even need powder, and I don't get shiny. It's amazing. I actually tap concealer on top of my bb cream, mac for the under eyes and a less-heavy one for any spots I have.
-
I definitely do. I use cle de peau -- my holy grail.
-
I use Estee Lauder BB cream but don't use anything else with it only because I'm too lazy!
-
I use Skin79 Super+ BB Cream (pink bottle) and don't use concealer underneath, but I probably should! My undereye circles are bad. The BB cream does a good job of concealing them and all my other blemishes but I could use a bit more hiding power.
-
I definitely need extra coverage on my under eye circles. Concealer is a god send
-
Can someone explain what BB and CC cream is and the difference between the two? I can never figure it out!
@LovelyPlum: I was told by a few professionals how great that concealer is, but it only seemed to make my circles purple and totally settled in the lines under my eyes and looked awful. Any tricks you've learned from using it?
@Mrs. Bee: I've had that in my Amazon cart since you told me about it before. The cost has kept me from pulling the trigger because I never spend that kind of money on myself. But, maybe I need someone to try it on me in person and I'll change my mind?
-
I don't but it's really just because I can't be bothered, not because my BB cream (Garnier) covers them completely. I don't like looking totally made up though. BB cream, pressed powder & some bronzer makes me look "awake."
-
@Boogs: try it at a store! one tube lasts forever so totally worth it in my book!
-
@Mrs. Bee: which store carries it? Nordy's? I need to get the color checked out.
-
I use the NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer with my BB and CC creams, love it!
-
@looch: i think they carry it online as well as some of the higher end dept stores here like barneys and bergdorfs.
-
@Mrs. Bee: I am going to have to pop in to one on a commute day, I think.
I am totally unfamiliar with the shades, so I don't want to guess, you know? Thanks!!!
-
If I'm being lazy or in a rush I just use BB cream. But if I'm actually making an effort I use concealer too.
@Boogs: CC is "color correction" cream and I think essentially the same stuff. But maybe someone at Sephora can explain what make them different :).
-
i use both a bb cream and undereye concealer.
-
@Mrs. Bee: Those stores aren't nearby.
Not at a place like Nordstom?@ShootingStar: Lol thanks, I always feel so silly asking. I feel like I'm bugging when I ask for help, I know my own issues.
-
@Boogs: nordstroms sells it on the website, but i would call the store to see if they carry it.
-
@Boogs:
I don't have that problem, but it sounds crappy. I wonder if this would help?Do you have a Nordstrom around you with a BB counter? That's where I got my makeup, and they were really helpful!
-
@Mrs. Bee: I have to head to the mall to return stuff, so I can poke in when I go.
@LovelyPlum: I have one!
Not at a place like Nordstom?
