BB skin refers to skin that has been enhanced using BB cream, which is short for 'blemish balm' cream. BB cream acts as a versatile, all-in-one product designed to improve the appearance and health of the skin.
Understanding BB Cream
BB cream was initially developed in Germany. Its original purpose was to be used by patients post-laser treatment. This innovative cream was created to offer protection, coverage, and hydration, all in a single product.
Components and Benefits
BB cream combines multiple skincare and makeup products into one, often including:
- Moisturizer: To hydrate the skin.
- Primer: To create a smooth base for makeup.
- SPF: To protect against sun damage.
- Foundation: To provide coverage and even out skin tone.
- Skin Treatment: Contains ingredients that may provide skincare benefits.
- Concealer: To cover blemishes and imperfections.
Achieving "BB Skin"
Using BB cream can result in skin that appears more even-toned, hydrated, and protected, giving it a healthy and radiant look. This is what is commonly referred to as "BB skin."
