Ponds brings its A-game to the BB cream space with its new Luminous Finish BB+. While many iterations of BBs, CCs, ZZs can leave skin looking slightly chalky and devoid of luminosity, this one’s light consistency and vibrant, sheer coverage distinguishes it from the rest. Want to add lightness to your under-eye area? Mix a bit of Ponds Luminous Finish BB+ Cream with your regularly scheduled concealer to erase dark circles and add freshness. I love that it’s perfect for a no-makeup makeup look but still evens out my skin tone and disguises redness and dark spots while protecting my skin from the sun’s damaging rays, thanks to its SPF 15. It multitasks like a dream employee imparting a radiance but also mattifying in these sultry climes we’re enduring in NYC currently. All that, and it doesn’t clog pores so I don’t have to worry about having to camouflage a new blemish while tending to blemishes of Christmas past. This BB is also wallet-friendly at a mere $10 for a 1.5 fluid ounce bottle that’s easily portable in your purse for touch-ups or in your carryon for weekend jaunts.
