What is BB cream?

Bb cream is like a tinted moisturizer. But it has SPF, a primer, and a serum in it! Which makes it even better for your skin!

Bb Cream was originally manufactured as an alternative to foundation in Germany for people who had undergone laser treatments or anything that would make their face sensitive.
Asia adopted them because Asia loves skincare. The West adopted them after that because that's what we do :)
Western BB Creams are basically tinted moisturizers, with sheer coverage and little to no skincare benefits. Asian BB Creams have higher coverage and a large focus on skin care such as whitening and oil control.
Hope this helps!
