What is BB cream: reviews and a brief history of origin

Many very advanced young ladies have long and successfully used such a cosmetic product as BB cream. Reviews about this product are very different. This is not surprising, because these creams are produced by different companies, and the skin reacts differently to each of them. What kind of miracle is this and where did it come from?

Most believe that BB creams are the creation of hands of Asian (in particular Korean) cosmetologists, because it is in the vastness of Asia that they are the most popular and considered the best among analogues produced in other countries. However, this is not entirely true: originally BB creams were developed by German specialists for patients of plastic surgery clinics. These were therapeutic masking agents (BB - Blemish Balm, which can be interpreted as a "balm from deficiencies"). They were used to mask traces from all sorts of procedures, such as deep peeling and plastic surgery. This product was aimed at the early healing and repair of damaged tissues. It was also noticed that BB cream, reviews about which left people suffering from acne, successfully coped with even the problem of acne and acne. This was noticed by Korean cosmetologists and just "finished" the finished product: they increased the number of useful components, added ingredients for rejuvenation, toning and protection from solar radiation, which resulted in what appeared now on the shelves of cosmetic stores .

So, what do we get with BB cream? According to the labels, one tube of this product can replace six jars of other products. Consider the action of BB cream:

• Moisturizing (replaces lotion or regular cream);
• Alignment of the skin relief (replaces the makeup base);
• Leveling the tone (replaces the foundation);
• Masking of skin defects (instead of concealer or corrector);
• Protection from harmful solar radiation (sunblock);
• Treatment of inflammation and pimples or elimination of fine wrinkles (replacement of special anti-aging and anti-acne agents).

But since a real Korean product is hard to find in a regular store, many people use analogues. So, one of the most popular is BB Cream Garnier. Reviews about it are very contradictory. Some argue that this product is well matiruet, but does not mask shortcomings at all. Others have quite the opposite opinion. Those who have this cream approached, it is recommended to wait after its application: when the product is absorbed into the skin, there will not be a greasy shine, and the shade of the face will become more even. Also, some young ladies using BB Garnier cream, to achieve a better effect, apply this product twice (the second layer - after completely absorbing the first). They say it helps a lot.

But, of course, most of all this novelty are happy girls who are tired of wasting a lot of time to give their skin freshness and radiance with the help of a mass of various means. In addition, BB cream, reviews of which are more positive than negative, can be applied even without using a mirror, that is, as a regular cream. In some forums, girls even post their photos: before applying IV cream and after. It should be noted that the effect is still obvious. Of course, he does not cover all pimples and acne as well as tonalnik, but the complexion becomes much smoother. In addition, none BB cream, reviews about which are so diverse, does not create a sense of mask, despite even the most dense texture. This is important, because the skin must breathe.

With regard to the flushing of this product, it is recommended for these purposes to use first hydrophilic oil, and only then soap or foam for washing. This is necessary for a more thorough and deep cleansing of the skin from the cream.
