Summer is right around the corner. That means many of us will be switching out our heavier foundations for lighter base products, just in time for the sunshine spells (at least we hope, anyway).

From skin tints and tinted moisturisers to BB creams and CC creams, there’s a whole selection of feather-light formulas out there to leave your skin looking fresh and balanced – without feeling too heavy on those warmer days and nights.

What are the best CC creams, BB creams and tinted moisturisers?

BB, CC creams and tinted moisturisers: What's the difference?

  • BB cream - Known as a "beauty balm" or "blemish balm", BB creams are all-rounders for evening out the skin tone and covering imperfections without feeling heavy like a traditional foundation.
  • CC cream - Otherwise known as "colour correcting cream", CC's are great if you have pigmentation, redness or discolouration in the skin as they help to combat it.
  • Tinted moisturiser - Hydrating and lightweight, these don't tend to target any specific areas, but give an all-round healthy-looking and natural complexion.
