Here are three formulas we can’t get enough of.

Editors’ Pick: Shiseido Waso Color Smart Day Moisturizer Spf 30
The Facts:
- Goes on white and adapts to your exact skin shade
- Provides light coverage with a skin-brightening effect
- Anti-pollution and SPF 30 protect against environmental stressors
This tinted moisturizer isn’t technically labeled as a BB cream, but its benefits speak for themselves. ONE37pm editorial assistant Madison has recommended this product to *all* of her friends for good reason. She says, “Shiseido's Waso Color Smart Moisturizer is the strangest innovation; the product starts off white and then seamlessly blends into your skin. It provides super-minimal coverage for an extra dewy glow, and the SPF 30 is enough protection for a typical day of sun exposure. (It's like Glossier's Skin Tint, but 8,000 times better.)”
Best Value: Maybelline Makeup Dream Fresh Bb Cream
The Facts:
- Water-gel formula contains no oil
- Blurs your imperfections and leaves a dewy glow
- Includes SPF 30 for full-spectrum coverage
When you use a product every single day, it’s going to go fast. But we don’t have any qualms about using this BB cream as much as possible given the price tag. It’s made without oils so it won’t clog pores or create dreaded midday shine. But it will blur imperfections, leave a dewy glow and provide you with SPF 30 for everyday sun protection.
Splurge-worthy: Smashbox Spf 35 Camera-ready Bb Cream
The Facts:

The trick to the perfect selfie? A shine-free, smooth-as-silk canvas. This BB cream primes, perfects, hydrates, cuts shine and protects with SPF 35—it truly is a do-it-all product. Apply a pea-size amount and blend with your fingertips for a filter-like finish that works in real life.
