What is BB cream like on oily skin? I don't want to wear my double wear in the summer because I'm acne prone and don't want to cake my face in products especially in the heat!

I've heard good things, is it a nice coverage?

Thanks 💜

BB cream is definitely a great option for summer as it's typically lightweight, has SPF, and won't melt off like a foundation. They make BB creams for oily skin, so when buying, just buy one for your skintype! As for coverage, coverage is not the best. BB cream is more for evening out skin tone and giving a little extra coverage that your usual skin.

Ahh thank you, I have acne on my face so might just have to stick to the double wear :-(

I find that the L'Oreal Nude Magique foundation is a nice light coverage and is what I pick when I want a bit of extra coverage that BB creams don't have but also want my face to feel light.
