BB Cream + Review

Who doesn't know BB Cream? Hmm.. Some of my friends don't know what is BB cream... Is it a Brand or what? At first, I used to be like them. I thought BB Cream was a cream that was called BB.. (-.-")

Luckily, I read some Blog that made me know about BB cream.. ^^

So, I hope this post, will help some of my readers to understand what BB cream is ..

BB Cream stands for Blemish Balm Cream. It was used to protect skin after laser surgery, while also providing coverage (wikipedia).

What are the differences between BB Cream and  foundation
If we just take a glance at BB cream and foundation, we will hardly to identify the differences.. Both of them looked similar to me, but in fact, they are so different!
The main difference between BB cream and the foundation is the function itself !
The foundation is usually used for covering the black spot, acne, and etc, while BB cream does not only covers the black spot but also heals it.

What are the functions of BB cream ?
1. As an essential cream..
2. Shrinking the pores
3. Soften the skin
4. As a sunscreen, protecting skin from UV  rays that cause black spots on the face
5. As a Foundation..

The conclusion
BB Cream = Foundation + Concealer + (Natural Makeup) + Moisturiser + Oil Control + Healing + Properties (Skin Regeneration, Pore Tightening, Skin Toning) + Optional Feature (Anti-Wrinkle/Brightening/Whitening)

It's said that, it can make your skin brighter, non-comedogenic and more youthful.. I can't said whether it's true or not. because I've only use it for 2 times.. :p So, I Still do not know about it yet..
How about you, Chica? Have you tried it for a long time? Is it true or not?
