How to Combine BB Creams for a Complete Makeup? 

The BB Cream is the perfect base for a light and natural makeup, but it can also be combined with other products for a more elaborate look. Here's how to integrate it into your routine for a flawless finish.

Moisturizing and pre-base: Before applying BB Cream, use a light moisturizer to improve its hold. If you're looking for longer wear, opt for a mattifying or illuminating primer, such as Revolution's Superfix Grip, depending on your skin type.

Correction and coverage: For perfection, apply a concealer to dark circles or imperfections after the BB Cream. Products like Saigu's Radiant Look Concealer are ideal for extra coverage without overloading the skin.

Setting powder: If you have combination or oily skin, seal your BB Cream with translucent or compact powders, such as Technic Cosmetics Vitamin C, to prevent shine and extend wear.

Blush and bronzer: A cream or powder blush will add a touch of freshness to the face, while a subtle bronzer will naturally enhance contours.

Illuminator for a healthy glow: A few drops of liquid illuminator on the cheekbones and Cupid's bow bring an effortless radiant effect.

Technical Features and Benefits of BB Creams

BB Creams not only even out skin tone, but also offer additional benefits depending on their formulation. Get to know their main features and find the perfect option for you.

Sun Protection (SPF): Many BB Creams include SPF sunscreens, protecting the skin from damage caused by UV rays. If you're looking for an option with high protection, Missha M Perfect Cover BB Cream SPF 42 is an excellent alternative.

Moisturizing Ingredients: Formulated with actives such as hyaluronic acid, glycerin and aloe vera, they help keep skin hydrated and healthy looking. Bell's Hypoallergenic BB Cream SPF15 is ideal for dry skin that needs extra freshness.

Anti-Aging Effect: Some BB Creams incorporate ingredients such as collagen and niacinamide, which help improve skin elasticity and reduce the appearance of fine lines.

Shine Control: For combination and oily skin, there are BB Creams with ingredients such as tea tree extract or mattifying powders, which control sebum production and keep skin shine-free throughout the day. Try Hean's Feel Natural Healthy Skin for a long-lasting finish.

Adaptable Coverage: From a natural effect to medium coverage, BB Creams adjust to different needs.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between BB Cream and CC Cream?

Although both are tinted creams, BB Cream (Blemish Balm) is focused on moisturizing, protecting and evening out skin tone with light to medium coverage. In contrast, the CC Cream (Color Correcting) has a greater ability to correct imperfections such as redness and blemishes, offering more even coverage and a perfecting finish. If you're looking for a natural, well-groomed effect, BB Cream is the best choice, while CC Cream is ideal for correcting skin tone.

How to buy the best BB cream for my skin type?

To choose the ideal BB Cream, consider your skin type:

• Dry skin: opt for moisturizing formulas with ingredients such as hyaluronic acid or aloe vera.
• Combination or oily skin: Look for BB Creams with a mattifying effect and oil control.
• Mature skin: Formulas with anti-aging ingredients such as collagen and niacinamide will help improve skin elasticity.
• How to apply BB cream for a natural finish?

For a fresh result without excess product:

• Prepare the skin with a light moisturizer.
• Apply the BB Cream with fingers, brush or sponge, blending from the center of the face outwards.
• Seal with translucent powder if you have oily skin and want longer wear.

Can I use BB cream if I have blemishes or redness?

Yes! Some BB Creams include soothing ingredients such as green tea and color correctors. For more coverage, you can combine it with a concealer in the areas that need it, without losing the light and natural effect.
