CC creams

CCs, aka ‘colour correcting’ creams, even out skin tone, thanks to ingredients that target discolouration, sallow skin and dullness. Lighter in texture than BBs, they usually offer more coverage, so are ideal for concealing dark spots, redness or hyperpigmentation. This is for you if you want to create a more uniform skin tone, along with getting a hit of other skincare benefits, such as anti-ageing and anti-blemish formulas.

Tinted moisturisers

These do what they say on the tube: combine a trusty moisturiser with a hint of colour. They hydrate the skin and help give you an instant glow. This is for you if you’re having a good skin day and don’t have time to faff with lots of products.

We love: Estée Lauder Day Wear Sheer Tint Release Moisturizer SPF15* (50ml);
Origins Ginzing SPF40 Energy-Boosting Tinted Moisturizer* (50ml)
