Indeed Labs Nanoblur, $19.99, has an incredibly light texture for a blur cream. And that's because it's designed to be applied over makeup. Instead of grabbing your powder compact next time your face looks smudgy, dull or shiny, gently rub some Nanoblur between your fingertips and pat it on. It's completely colorless, and it has slightly powdery feel -- plus, the mattifying effects last for hours.
With an extremely gentle form of retinol (retinyl palmitate), antioxidants and LHA to exfoliate, Lancôme Visionnaire 1 Minute Blur Smoothing Skincare Instant Perfector, $55, would be an awesome skin care product even if it didn't blur pores and wrinkles. Fortunately, it fights lines and hides them at the same time. Swap out your regular daytime serum and try this on top of your moisturizer. You'll be amazed by how flawless your skin looks -- even if you skip foundation.
Peter Thomas Roth BB Blur Cream, $48, is blur-BB hybrid that will save you a step. It combines the line-smoothing magic of a blur cream with the skin-evening tint of a BB cream. It's also packed with skin care ingredients: peptides help plump wrinkles over time, antioxidants protect your skin from the environment and apple fruit extract calms redness.
What you see is what you get with Garnier 5 Second Blur Skin Renew Instant Smoother, $16.99. Unlike some other blur creams, it's designed to have immediate effects (it fills lines, hides pores, brightens tone -- the works) without the bells and whistles of longer-lasting benefits. And sometimes that's exactly what you want. It's a fantastic base for makeup, but it also works well on its own -- like invisible foundation. And the fluffy, mousse-like texture feels fantastic when you apply it.
