BB cream hunting

It's time for BB cream.And it is a solution that I have for the time being.I have quite a long daily facial/makeup routine everyday and it cost me a gazillion babbles and mind torture everyday.Thanks to my husband.pffttttt
Here is my daily routine before,
1)Cleanse
2)Tone-after done toning,wait 1-2 minutes to dry
3)Apply essence - wait another 1-2 minutes to dry
4)Moisturizer - wait another minute to get absorb
5)UV cream - wait another minute to get absorb
6)Foundation
At least 5-6 minutes to get all the facial routines done before start makeup.Apply powder,blusher,mascara, lipstick n lip gloss.phewwww...it really took me a good 20 minutes to finish them.

I was desperately to skip routine no 4-6, and later I found out about BB cream.Not that I didn't know about it before, this time I really into the benefits of BB cream.And what makes me so excited was, BB cream does cover steps 4-6.yeayyy.time savvy. 
There were a few brands of BB cream & tinted moisturizer that I've tried.Here are my review.

1.Loreal UV Perfect BB Max

I've tried using this for few days.It wasn't too oily on my skin.The texture was fine.Not too thick.One thing that bothered me was the color.It made my skin look 'grey'.Affordable price.

2.Stilla Sheer color tinted moisturizer

I bought this after the SA at Sephora convinced me that this is the best for my skin.I used it for a few times also but the result wasn't nice.It is sheer, and sheer doesn't goes well with oily T-Zone area skin like me.It just added more 'sheer' on my skin.The product claimed oil free...well, not really oil free.It is pricey & what a waste because it doesn't suit with my skin.pfffftttt..

3. ZA Total Hydration BB Cream

The texture is a bit thick -like foundation.It's a bit oily on my Tzone area.Just a bit..Plus it got high SPF.I'm comfortable with this one & been using it more than a month now.The price is affordable.
The product claim;
