BB Cream

Assalamualaikum.

I received a lot of compliments on my skin lately. The truth is I don't even wear any foundation or compact powder. I just use BB cream with loose powder.

I stopped using foundation two years ago. Why? Because heavy makeup will block the skin pores. I noticed my skin is getting better after I stopped using it. I prefer BB cream instead.

What is BB cream? BB stands for Blemish Balms or Beauty Balms. It is popular as the all-in-one formulation and became a sensation in South Korea then spread throughout Asia. 

What are so great about BB? 
  • good base for makeup like a primer
  • even out complexion like a tinted moisturiser
  • cover minor imperfections and redness like a concealer
  • hydrate skin like day cream
  • brighten up a dull complexion 
  • some BB have SPF protection
  • some even contains ingredients for healing, soothing and anti-ageing properties.

I've tried a lot of BB creams. My favourites? 
1. BB Cushion by Laneige and 
2. Luminous Glow BB cream by ER Essentials.

Just a bit of BB cream, a layer of loose powder, a hint of blusher and lip gloss will make wonders on my face. Less is more.
