What is BB cream?

BB stands for “Beauty Balm.” These creams provide light-to-medium coverage while nourishing the skin with hydrating and soothing ingredients. They’re ideal for those who want a natural look with added moisture and radiance.

What is CC cream?

CC stands for “Complexion Care.” CC creams focus on colour correction—reducing the appearance of redness, dullness or uneven tone—while still offering breathable coverage. They’re perfect for creating a smooth, balanced complexion without feeling heavy.

FAQs

What is the difference between BB and CC creams?

BB creams focus on hydration and light coverage, while CC creams are formulated to correct colour concerns such as redness or dullness. Both offer natural-looking results with a comfortable, skincare-like feel.

Can BB and CC creams replace foundation?

Yes, if you prefer a lightweight base. BB and CC creams provide a smoother, more natural finish compared to traditional foundation, making them great for everyday wear.

Do BB and CC creams suit oily skin?

Many BB and CC creams are available in matte or oil-control formulas that help minimise shine. Look for non-comedogenic options if you’re prone to breakouts.

Should I use a primer underneath?

Primer isn’t required, but it can help extend wear time and smooth the skin’s texture—especially for long days or humid weather.
