I need BB and/or CC creams for olive/deep/dark skin. Any recommendations?

When it comes on to foundations, my skin tone is hard to find since I always seem to be in between foundation shades. Even when I get my makeup professionally done, it takes the makeup artist a longer time to find my shade. My skin tone is a slightly lighter "deep" with a very warm/yellow undertone (or olive). I notice that BB and CC creams tend to have limited tone ranges and usually the shade that the brand has that is closest to mine won't match very well. I am way too lazy to mix shades lol so can anyone recommend any brands that have a wider range of shades, especially in darker skin tones. I also have sensitive combination skin.

I personally from experience suggest the FIRST AID BEAUTY - Ultra Repair® Tinted Moisturizer Broad Spectrum SPF 30 I loves this very much when I used, then I wanted more coverage when I got bad acne so I started wearing medium coverage foundation

I’ve heard good things about the Thrive Cosmetics BB cream but haven't personally tried it. For BB Cream I like the bareMinerals COMPLEXION RESCUE® Tinted Moisturizer with Hyaluronic Acid and Mineral SPF 30 Bamboo 5.... and MAKE UP FOR EVER - Ultra HD Perfector Skin Tint Foundation SPF 25 but their shade range isn't great.

bareMinerals COMPLEXION RESCUE® Tinted Moisturizer with Hyaluronic Acid and Mineral SPF 30 Bamboo 5.... is a good product if you like a dewy look. I prefer more matte or natural compared to dewy but I second @makeitup305's recommendation. It has a pretty nice shade range since it is a tinted moisturizer.

Have you tried the NARS Pure Radiant Tinted Moisturizer Broad Spectrum SPF 30 St. Moritz or the Clinique Even Better Glow Light Reflecting Makeup? The Clinique is technically a foundation, but it is light enough to give a no makeup look.
