Good BB Cream for the Parks w SPF

[SGMCO]

Hi,
I'm thinking out using a tinted BB cream for the parks instead of just plain sunscreen on my face, so I need it to have an SPF in it. Would also like to be able to purchase this at a drug store or walmart, so need affordable. My skin is Normal, I don't have dry or oily skin but will sweat alot because of the Humidity. Anyone have experience wearing BB creams to the parks? thanks

What is BB cream?

BB cream is a tinted face balm sometimes a tinted moisturizer, it is not as thick or heavy on your skin like foundation make-up.

For an affordable one, I have heard great things about Physician's Formula and Maybelline's Dream Fresh (both SPF 30). I think the PF one is limited in color range, but that would be my suggestion if the colors work. The Maybelline has a scent to it that not everyone can stand. I use Dr. Jart because I love it and it has SPF 45, but it is expensive so I try to get it from places other than Sephora (like Amazon).

I use Covergirl cgsmoothers, it has SPF 21. It is tinted and is super light weight. It doesn't provide much coverage (if you're looking to use it in lieu of a foundation), so I use it mostly as a moisturizer and sunscreen, then use foundation over it.

Yes, I would like a little coverage, not as much as foundation would give you, but light weight and with sunscreen.

Not a drug store brand, but I use Tarte amazonian clay tinted moisturizer. It has SPF and provides light coverage - doesn't feel like I have anything on my face - but enough coverage that I don't feel the need to use concealer or anything. I have normal skin also. It is a little more expensive, but totally worth it IMO. You can find it at Ulta or Sephora.

I use this as well and I love it. It lasts a long time and has great coverage (I have adult acne that tends to flare up in hot/humid weather), so it's worth the cost for me. But I also have a habit of giving up halfway through the day and just putting regular sunscreen on too though, so take my opinion with a grain of salt!

I like Laneige BB cushion from Target. My MAC shade is NC25 and I use light with Laneige. Coverage is very natural and good. SPF 50.

I forgot Laneige! I like that one, too.
