What is BB Cream

Hey Everybody!  Get Excited! Get Excited!  I’m back with another informational beauty blog.  Let’s talk beauty…Did you know that BB creams are another way to get skin perfection? 

In the cosmetics world, the beauty buzz is about the rise of BB creams for luxury and mass market retailers. The truth is, they’re not new.  The original BB cream stands for blemish balm made in Korea. The original products were just used to treat blemishes but now they’re for beauty or facial rejuvenation. Today the BB creams are much more sophisticated than they were when they started and much more complex in a good way. It has become a favorite beauty product for many women in Asia and the international markets.

Not all BB creams are the same you have to see what’s in that BB cream.  BB cream is said to be a substitute for foundation. The lightweight cream evens out the skin tone and hides blemishes. You can apply the cream the same way you would apply a moisturizer. You may also decide to apply your makeup on top of the BB cream; however, it is not necessary.

Bye, Bye, Dry Skin

Happy New Year!  Moisturizing is an important step that helps your foundation goes on smoothly and evenly. Make sure to begin with a freshly washed face, then apply your moisturizer. It’s best applied to a damp face because it goes on more evenly. Moisturizer evens the skin’s porosity and is most effective when it’s left to absorb for a few minutes before you apply your makeup. You can use a light moisturizer or a heavy one; just make sure you choose the right one for your particular skin type.

• Moisturizers for normal skin are usually light to help even out any dry areas.
• Moisturizers for dry skin are usually higher in emollients and are richer.
• Moisturizers for sensitive skin are fragrance and irritant-free
• Moisturizers for oily skin are extremely light and won’t clog pores.

Many have oil-absorbing properties in them that actually help control the oil. Oily skin needs moisturizer, because it can often be over-dried by cleansers. The body is so smart; it actually produces more oil to compensate for the over-dryness, which only makes the complexion appear greasier. A light moisturizer keeps oily skin from producing more oil and can help even out its porosity.

TIP: Moisturizing your lips before applying lip color will help it go on more smoothly.
