Beauty Splurge vs. Steal of the Week: Estee Lauder BB Cream

In this weekly column, I’m bringing you my favorite budget-friendly beauty products (and their high-end equivalents!) that are available online and in-store. This week, we’re chatting BB Creams (!). Also make sure to check out my blog, HonestlyJamie.com, for even more beauty product reviews and tips.

BB creams have been around for a few years now, but with so many options (both high-end and low-end) it’s hard to decipher what’s actually worth it! My two favorites?

Estee Lauder Daywear BB Cream SPF 35 is an AMAZING high-end option. It’s proven to fight free radical damage that leads to wrinkles, fine lines, etc. AND it illuminates the skin for fresh face. The one downside: it only comes in two shades but the brand claims that they suit a variety of different skin tones.
