So I was wondering if you all set your bb cream with a powder? Also, should moisturizer be worn under it? I'm going to try the Maybelline bb cream tomorrow and wanted to know what to do?.

I use moisturizer with spf under my BB cream (even though it has spf in it), then I dust lightly with powder because I have oily skin.

I do wear moisturizer under my bb cream, just because my skin is pretty dry and I like to have the extra spf. and then I like to set it with translucent powder.

@Kelly and @Stepanie what brand of powder do you use? I'm going to the stores tomorrow and could possibly pick something up.

Whitney I use Cargo Blu-Ray HD powder (compact) or Chanel loose powder depending on what application technique I want to use.

Thanks Kelly! I just checked out the Cargo Blu_Ray and it looks promising.

I really like that Cargo powder, especially because it provides another layer of light coverage and just has a generally nice finish. Good luck and have fun shopping!

You should moisturize no matter what.

I apply either Bobbi Brown Retouching powder or Hourglass Ambient Lighting powder...only in my t-zone area though. My bb cream pretty much takes care of my oily skin but those two powders soften my face (I just don't use them together).

@whitney right now I am using a Laura Mercier brightening translucent powder.
