Its a beauty balm that has a bit less coverage than a foundation and usually offer some sort of skin benefits.. SPF, oil control, etc.. normally with more of a matte finish. a cc cream is a colour correcting cream that targets hyper pigmentation and helps to lighten it over time. a cc cream actually has lighter coverage normally with a bit more of a radiant finish

Foundation will always have better coverage. But I have found that by ditching foundation for bb cream my skin has gotten much healthier so I don't need as much coverage.
