DIY BB CREAM

BB creams are easily available in the market. But, if you want to save a few bucks by simply re-purposing some beauty products you already have, then make your own! You will be able to get a better shade match!

You can always apply these ingredients separately but I am always on the look out for a one stop makeup hack. I’d love to be that person who gets ready in 5 mins and yet looks flawless and put together!

This BB Cream is that magic portion for me and I can skip the 5 step makeup routine without compromising on the final look.

Ingredients –

  • Foundation – 5 pumps
  • Facial oil or moisturizer with SPF – 3 drops
  • Liquid highlighter – 2 drops
  • Setting powder or loose powder – a dash

How to make –

In a clean container mix all the ingredients till you get the consistency you desire. I was out of my sunscreen moisturizer so I didn’t add it here. You can add your sunscreen to this so you don’t have to apply it separately.

Final look

The ratio of products mentioned is for normal or combination skin. If you have dry skin, add a few more drops of facial oil. If you have oily skin, go easy on the less oil.

You can tweak this to your ratio of ingredients to your liking. If you want more coverage, use more foundation or apply two layers of this BB Cream. If you want to go sheer, use more facial oil and SPF. If you want a more dewy finish, add more liquid highlighter. If you want to fill in your pores better, add a pump of primer.
