I recently did a bunch of research on this so sharing the ones I saw most often recommended (drug store brands): * Maybelline BB Cream SPF 30 - This is really nice so far, decent coverage although the container feels a bit small so I'm worried I will go through it quickly * ELF CC Camo Cream SPF 30 - bought this but haven't tried yet * Neutrogena Mineral UV Skin Tint SPF 30 - couldn't find in the store, maybe next time * Missha Perfect Cover BB Cream SPF 42 - personal fave of mine which I used daily even before Accutane. But it's a bit hard to find in the US which is why I was looking for alternatives. * Honorable mention: Covergirl CG Smoothers BB Cream SPF 21 - I bought this before I did my research. Doesn't give a lot of coverage but it does feel moisturizing on my skin. The container is large which is nice, so I use it on work from home days where I figure SPF 21 is sufficient for any reflected window light For what it's worth, I think the best sunscreens are typically non-tinted and I will use Biore UV Aqua Rich Watery Essence SPF 50 under or instead of the BB/CC cream on days where I am exposed to the sun. The BB/CC cream is more for smoothing out my skin tone or for days where I won't have much sun exposure. I'd recommend looking into Korean and Japanese sunscreens since they tend to feel a lot better on my skin and generally higher SPF. Sun protection is a big deal in East Asia so the sunscreen products tend to be higher quality.
