Well guys.. this is my first review for this blog ☺ actually i find many problem and difficulty by using WordPress because i never use it before but yeahh, i’ll try…
Couple years ago, everytime i went to department stores and stopped by at one of cosmetics booth, the sales would come to me and offered what they called as BB cream. But now, couple months ago, i went to department store to look around and when i stopped at one of cosmetics booth, the sales offered me another product that called as CC cream. I asked the sales girl, what the different between BB cream and CC cream and which one is better?? She started to explain about the product to me, but unfortunately, she just told me about the CC cream and explained about its usefulness without answered what the difference is..
The very simple thing that distinguish these two are their name. The initials BB in BB cream stand for Beauty Balm. This products are multitaskers : a non-brightening primer, light foundation, moisturizer, and sunscreen in one, with built in anti-aging properties. The initials CC in CC cream stand for Color Corrective and contains a skin brightening primer, light foundation, moisturizer, sunscreen, anti-aging ingredients and sometimes collagen boosters. The BB Cream tends to be a bit heavier and better for dry skin with a focus on prevention and maintenance, while CC cream tends to be a tad lighter (so better for acne-prone skin) and focuses on concealing existing issues.
Basically they are a pumped up version of tinted moisturizer with some benefits. They are a quick fix to give your skin a boost but they don’t cover up skin’s imperfections as well as using a proper foundation. Even so, i always wear them in my daily activity. I use CC cream from Max Factor and i really satisfy with this product. It’s not in a high price but i get a maximal result. My skin is easy to breakouts but this product don’t make me breakouts at all.
So.. have you decide to choose the right BB cream or CC cream that fit for your skin?? Maybe this can help you…
