BB cream, CC cream or make-up.

What is the best option for your skin?

What product do you usually use in your morning routine?

A BB cream, CC or foundation?

Maybe you are confused with so many options and you don’t know where to start?

We help you to understand the difference between all of them, which one would suit your daily routines and we propose you our selection of natural products.

Let’s take it one step at a time!

First let’s define what a BB cream, a CC cream and what is the difference between them.

A BB cream is a cream with pigments that apart from moisturising the skin, unifies the tone to conceal small imperfections. Its name Blemish Balm Cream literally means balm for imperfections.

Who is the BB cream suitable for?

Basically for young skins that need small corrections. They usually have a light coverage with a natural and luminous finish, very fluid and easily absorbed textures and a low tint tone, nude type. Sometimes they incorporate sun protection factor. They work great on dry skin as they provide hydration and a feeling of freshness.

We suggest this natural BB Cream by Mádara with Rosa moqueta extract that moisturises and natural pigments in 2 different tones that instantly perfect the skin.

The CC cream like the BB cream cares for the skin while adding colour to even out the tone, but unlike the BB cream it provides more coverage. The name Colour Correcting Cream translates as colour correcting cream.

 

Who is CC cream suitable for?

It is more suitable for mature skin that requires medium coverage and good hydration. It is usually matte in tone, which makes it the perfect alidade for oily and shiny skin. It blends easily and sometimes incorporates a sun protection factor.

Our choice of natural CC cream is from Juice Beauty.  It has a perfectly balanced formula that includes moisturising Aloe vera, green apple and grape extracts, antioxidant Vitamin E and Vitamin C, SPF 30 and natural pigments that even out skin tone and reduce the appearance of fine lines.
