But, which BB creams is the best for your skin? Which BB creams is the most suitable type of your skin? And what is BB cream? Do we really know the answer? Or are we just following blindly 'cause the make up gurus said so?

What is BB Cream?
  •  BB creams (Blemish Balm Cream) was originated from Germany and was initially prescribed by dermatologists to patients who had undergone laser skin treatments to soothe redness and cater their sensitive skin. The trend of using BB creams caught on in Korea when celebrities started using them to create a natural and dewy finish. The use of this multi-purpose wonder-cream is a sizzling-hot beauty trend, particularly in Asia, and has helped many girls streamline their beauty regime.


BB Cream – A Multi-Efficacy Wonder Cream!

Opinions are varied over whether BB Cream is a skincare product or a makeup item. Actually it is both a skincare and makeup product. BB Creams have multiple skincare benefits which include whitening, sun protection, reduction of fine lines and wrinkles, moisturizing while providing coverage for the skin. It gives a natural and flawless finish, similar to how Korean celebrities look. With its multiple functionality and convenience, women can now cut down on her makeup application time without compromising on looking good. It only takes 1 product and a mere 10 minutes to put on moisturizer, sun screen and foundation all at once. Grooming gets much easier with the use of BB Creams.

See this orange? I'm gonna to test this multi-effect BB cream on it!

As all of us should be aware that orange skin always have this pockmarks on them, so let's see if this BB cream really shows magic to make the pockmarks disappear!

I applied some Bio Multi-Effect BB cream on the orange and was rather surprised by its outcome! Why? See below.
Okay, I only used a small water droplet size of BB cream to achieve this effect.

A slight closeup view of the orange. Can you see that the pockmarks are less obvious now?

Okay, a full close up of it. Surprised by the result? Seriously, I am!
MY OPINION:
I love the way it really conceals my flaws perfectly. I just need to use a pea size to cover my blemishes  and scars. I only use lesser amount of concealer than normal in this case. But, my skin tends to become oily after few hours.Haha!

Oh ya, just to share with you that, in order to achieve the above effect, all you need to do is just to pat the BB cream on your face, instead of spreading it. Try it and see the difference! :)


I will be posting Bio-Essence Bio Platinum BB cream in the upcoming post. So stay tune! :)
