By now, you've most likely heard of blemish/beauty balms, better known as BB creams. Honestly, these mancha-removing, complexion-correcting formulas are really a chica's best friend, especially during those warm days of spring and summer. Think tinted moisturizers stacked with a load of skincare benefits like blemish control, anti-aging, moisturizing, and SPF all in one. These babies are perfect for any woman on the go, but especially for busy moms who really don't have time to apply layers of makeup. Not to mention, it corrects while it covers. And who says you have to spend big bucks on a good one? There's a number of BB creams out there that work great for Latina skin—all for just $10 and under! Check out some of my favorites below:
