When it comes to both my skin care and makeup routines, I tend to opt for products that help me feel put together with minimal effort.

Because of this preference, I’ve come to rely on tinted moisturizers instead of foundation to give me that blurred, even skin tone I desire.

A Tried-And-Tested Routine To Stop Dark Spots In Their Tracks

I have a confession to make: Last year I made a silly skin-care mistake that I, a journalist who’s researched and written about beauty for over a decade, shouldn’t have made. I chose not to listen to my dermatologist when he told me my skin was too sensitive for tretinoin (a type of retinol), and I went behind his back and got a prescription. You know what happened next—I learned my lesson. My skin turned into a dry, red, splotchy, scaly mess, and stayed that way for months. I was only recently able to bring it back to a healthy state after replacing tretinoin with a different anti-aging product perfect for those of us with sensitive skin: SkinCeuticals’s Metacell Renewal B3 Niacinamide Moisturizer.

My Korean cousins and aunts used them, and I watched my mother apply them under her mineral powder foundations. As a result, I mistakenly thought the product category originated in South Korea. “BB creams actually originated in Germany in the 1960s by a dermatologist looking for a product to apply after cosmetic treatments. BB creams became popular in South Korea in the early to mid-2000s,” reveals Dr. Y. Claire Chang, a board-certified dermatologist at UnionDerm in New York City. However, due to their widespread popularity in the peninsula, Korean makeup brands and Korean skin care brands have created some of the most innovative and effective BB creams over the years.

The perfect water-resistant face sunscreen has eluded me for years, which is annoying but makes sense considering the special requirements involved. Avoiding a white cast (or any other shade drama) and a super-shiny (or too-dry) finish is extra important for this particular body part. Facial skin is also more sensitive and prone to breakouts and irritation. Plus, when you add the sweating (or swimming) factor to the mix, you have to worry about stuff like stinging eyes and weird streaks.
