What is BB Cream?

The double B stands for "Blemish Balm". It is getting extremely popular in Asia and getting more and more exposure in the west too. BB Cream, is known to have been formulated as an after-treatment cream to help patients who have gone through laser skin surgery to soothe and regenerate the skin. Soon, it became popular with many Korean celebrities. It was said to be a miracle cream, BB Cream had become highly sought after.

The difference between BB Cream and other make-up applications is that it is a skincare/healing product combined with make-up. While regular foundation liquid does nothing to your skin , BB cream is supposed to do wonders to your skin while covering up. There are many types of BB Cream. Some is said to have whitening properties, some anti wrinkle, some to even out skin tone and lighten blemish scars....etc... But all of them works as moisturizer, sunscreen, make-up base and foundation too. So that's what great about BB Cream, apart from make-up to cover up your scars...it is also said to be a healing cream....though you should still stick to your regular skin care regime.

BB cream can be used as a make-up base before foundation. Or some will just skip foundation all together as it already has tinted color.
