Hey I think this may be a silly question but what is foundation, what is it used for , and is bb cream considered a foundation?

A foundation is a product used to even out the skin and make it look flawless. It comes in many different forms, but two main consistencies are powder and liquid. Liquid foundations and bb creams are pretty similar in consistency. There is usually a much larger selections of colors of foundations than there are for bb creams also. They don't have all of the skin benefits bb creams have, but they offer much better coverage and sometimes they do come with SPF. You can go anywhere from sheer coverage (like a bb cream) to full coverage depending on your needs. Bb are not considered foundations. Hope this helped :)
