BB Cream is a new makeup product that has become hugely popular in the past decade. The BB stands for blemish balm or beauty balm, and it’s a versatile cosmetic product that includes multiple functions such as skin care, make-up primer, sun protection, concealer, foundation, etc.
BB Cream is usually lighter than the regular foundation and has less coverage, but create more natural look and gives skin care treatments, which is suitable for daily use. It’s also a great item for saving time during the morning makeup routine. BB Cream is one of the makeup essentials today among makeup users worldwide, and has become as common as regular foundations.
BB Creams are hugely common here in Japan, too, and Japanese BB Creams are actually popular around the world today. Various kinds of BB Creams are sold at Japanese drugstores, and each BB Cream has a different function and effect such as coverage, longevity and SPF rate.
