Most recently, on the shelves of our cosmetic stores, this mysterious product - BB-cream appeared. Manufacturers of this cream promise their customers the most real miracles. The cream is designed to moisturize, hide skin defects, serve as a base for make-up and protect from ultraviolet radiation. At the same time he is able to adjust to the tone of the skin, treat pimples and smooth wrinkles. Incredible? But it really is.
A bit of history
Invented this miracle cream German cosmetologists. Initially, Blemish Balm cream was intended for the rapid healing of the skin of plastic surgeons' clients. This remedy possessing regenerating, moisturizing and antiseptic properties surprisingly quickly restored the epidermis, damaged by deep peelings and plastics. As a side effect, patients noted a general improvement in skin condition: acne reduction, removal of chronic traces from them, smoothing out the tone.
Despite the tremendous effect, BB-cream has not received the distribution among the fair sex, whom he deserved. But Asian women appreciated it. Korean cosmeticians have finalized the composition of the product, adding ingredients to it, rejuvenating, masking and giving the person a healthy color.
Noticing the amazing metamorphosis that occurred with the skin of Asian women who made an ideal face without any photoshop, Europeans and Americans also wanted to try this cream and began to storm Korean and Japanese online stores. Fortunately, the largest cosmetic concerns have not been left out, and now you can buy BB-cream in any store - from expensive luxury to budget options.
Functions of BB cream
BB-cream is a universal tool that combines the functions of an all-in-one:
- the cream can be used instead of a tone, while it will lie down in a thin and weightless layer, without creating a mask effect on the face;
- for a good masking of defects in some places, the cream can be applied more densely, layering each other - the texture of the BB-cream allows it to be done without problems;
- the cream has the ability to adjust to the color of your skin, which is absolutely not noticeable on the face, but gives it a healthy shining appearance;
- BB-cream keeps well on the skin, does not "float", does not emphasize wrinkles and pores, does not get dirty;
- the product moisturizes and nourishes the skin;
- cream protects the skin from photoaging;
- BB-cream has a thick consistency and is perfectly distributed on the skin in any convenient way, even with hands.
How to use BB cream?
Despite the multifunctionality of the BB-cream, it can not replace all the other facial aids for the face. Therefore, the use of tonics, serums, moisturizing creams is a must. All this is desirable to apply to the skin before applying BB-cream.
BB-cream needs to buy a shade that is close to the tone of your skin, but ideally they may not coincide: after distribution on the face, the cream will still merge with your skin and will not be noticeable.
BB-cream can be used as a base for make-up. It will be perfectly covered with powder, cream blush and any other cosmetics. At the end of the day, the BB-cream should be carefully removed from the face. Make-up is better done in this way: cleanse the skin with a cotton disc soaked in oil or two-phase make-up remover, and then wash well with soap or soap.
BB-cream is best not to use every day, it will come in handy when you need to look especially impressive: with a fresh, young, radiant skin from inside, not overloaded with makeup. Although the daily application will not be worse.
