Looking effortlessly perfect is every woman’s daily quest and with all the skincare products and makeup available today, it becomes a little bit hard to keep up with our beauty routine. With this in mind, the beauty world offers you two great inventions on a silver platter, which are BB and CC creams. You might think at first that we’re just putting some letters together, but in fact, these 2 beauty wonders can reduce a lot of the time you need for applying your morning creams and makeup.

BB stands for beauty balm and is the definition of makeup with skincare benefits, as it hydrates, controls the shine and sometimes offers sun protection while acting like a foundation with sheerer coverage. Quite a nice way to avoid looking overdone, don’t you agree? You just have to make sure to choose the one that is ideal for your skin type.

As for the CC in CC cream, it stands for color correcting, and unlike BB creams, this one provides a little more coverage – making it the perfect choice for a skin with imperfections. And hey, it’s also amazing to help smooth the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles thanks to its slightly heavier formula.

Now, let’s guide you through your best BB and CC creams options!
