5 Best BB Creams

Have you discovered the best BB cream for your skin yet? Having made their European debut in 2011, following huge success in the Asian market, BB creams quickly made an impact on the beauty world thanks to their successful marrying of skincare and make-up benefits. But what is a BB cream, really? Some companies refer to them as blemish balms, others as beauty balms, but the general consensus is that they should provide hydration, SPF protection and sheer coverage alongside soothing and healing properties – preventing the need for numerous separate products.

The similarity to tinted moisturisers has been noted – and yes, many are just that – but the true purpose of BB creams is to go one step further, with additional ingredients such as hyaluronic acid and antioxidants to regenerate skin. Originally created by dermatologists for patients to use after going through laser skin surgery, the idea is that BB creams actually provide genuine skincare benefits – as well as providing enough coverage to be used in the place of foundation. Think lazy Saturdays, when you want your skin to look fresh but flawless, without the 10-step regime. Discover the best BB cream products available to buy now.
