An ideal skin tone is the adornment of any girl. Not all representatives of the fair sex can boast of such luxury. You can often see enlarged pores, pimples, age spots, various types of rashes and other imperfections on the skin.

To solve these problems, modern manufacturers offer big choice foundations, BB and CC creams that can even out complexion and skin texture, hide all kinds of inflammation, disguise pimples and give self-confidence.

In this article we will talk in detail about the different foundations, how they differ from each other, and also give recommendations on choosing the ideal product for you.

Features of the foundation

Ideal for

1. Evening out complexion;
2. Smoothing pores;
3. Covering imperfections (pimples, scars, age spots, rashes);
4. Face protection from weather conditions(wind, sun, frost);
5. Performs various functions: matting, moisturizing, shining, etc.;
6. Improves the appearance of the skin.

Peculiarities

• Prolongs the durability of all makeup - without this product, all products applied to the face (blush, bronzer, contouring, highlighter) will become less intense over the course of the day, absorbed into the skin, and the foundation serves as a good base, forming a kind of film that holds all the makeup;
• Nourishes and moisturizes the skin throughout the day thanks to its presence in the composition essential oils, vitamins and minerals;
• Can clog pores - you need to thoroughly cleanse your face to get rid of all the product. Micellar water, all kinds of foams, milks, and mousses are well suited for these purposes.

Criterias of choice

When choosing a foundation, you must first of all focus on its characteristics:

• What skin type is it suitable for? If you neglect this, then in the end you will not get the desired result;
• Abundance of shades in the line of products. It happens that the lightest shade of one foundation will be dark for your face, and by turning to another line of the same brand, you can find suitable ones. Apply a small amount from the sample to the back of your hand or neck, spread in a circular motion and try to evaluate how well the product suited you. Sometimes the lighting in the store makes this difficult, but with experience comes an understanding of what to choose. Ideally, the product should blend in with the skin color and leave no traces or clear boundaries;

• Texture – foundations can be liquid, in the form of a mousse, dense, light, or in a stick. The choice will depend on your preferences and skin type;
• Pleasant bonuses - in addition to hydration, radiance, mattification, some products may contain an SPF factor with sun protection, and some products can even smooth out wrinkles and tighten the skin (lifting effect).

How to choose according to skin type

Dry

Prone to the formation of peeling and redness. It requires a moisturizing product.

An excellent option would be liquid foundations, as well as in the form of mousse.

The product should saturate the skin with moisture throughout the day, eliminating the feeling of dryness and tightness.

Combined

Products of different textures are suitable, the most important thing is to decide which problem needs to be dealt with more actively - dryness or oily shine in the T-zone.

Good products for water based with vitamins and minerals included.

Fat

It is necessary to select matting agents that will inhibit the appearance of greasy shine throughout the day, and also combat the problems of enlarged pores and acne, that is, have good covering ability.

This foundation should be free of oils, pearlescent and reflective particles.

It is welcome to contain powder and acids, which narrow pores and prevent pimples from spreading.

Problematic

This type is prone to the appearance of different problems at the same time: peeling and acne, areas with very severe inflammation, acne, and more. Foundation should always be applied to a cleansed face, and the consistency should be medium density.

If problem areas are prone to dryness, then give preference to foundations with oils and moisturizing ingredients in the composition.

If the problem is more in the occurrence of greasiness and increased formation of oily sheen, then it makes sense to try products with a drying effect and mattifying ones.

Foundations can also be used among men to achieve a light cosmetic effect.

What to apply

Exists . Which one you choose is up to you to decide only by experience, since each of them has its own characteristics and disadvantages:

• Applying with your fingers is the easiest and fastest method.

To do this, squeeze a small amount of product onto the back of your hand, then use your fingertip to spread the product over your face, and then spread the foundation along the massage lines with light circular movements.

The main disadvantage of this option is the presence of stripes and uneven coverage.

It is best to apply lighter textures with your fingers (BB cream, CC cream, primer, foundation with weightless coverage);

• Application with a sponge (beauty blender) is the most popular and best option.

Gives an even, uniform coating without bald spots. Suitable for any type of foundation.

1. Take a cosmetic sponge, lower it under the stream warm water and it, swelling from moisture, will increase several times.
2. Next, squeeze out required amount foundation on the back of your hand, spread it pointwise over your face with the pad of your finger, and then, using soft tapping movements, spread the foundation with a damp sponge.

It is recommended to wash the beauty blender after each use using detergent (shampoo, mild soap, dishwashing liquid). The disadvantage of this type of application is that the sponge “eats” quite a lot of product, that is, the consumption of foundation increases;

• Application with a brush - this option is most often used among makeup artists.

To use, use tightly packed (kabuki) or flat brushes. Pile – natural or synthetic. The difference is that synthetic ones are better washed off decorative cosmetics, and also less bacteria accumulate in them, brushes with natural bristles are more expensive, wash less easily, but apply the product more evenly. First, the foundation is applied pointwise to the face, and then distributed using a brush in a circular motion. The disadvantage of this type of application is the formation of stripes from the pile, that is, the coating is not always uniform. Brushes should be washed after each application of foundation using mild shampoos or professional cleaners. Be sure to dry in a horizontal position in the open air.

In order for the product to transform the skin, mask all imperfections and last as long as possible, you need to follow a few simple recommendations:

1. The foundation is applied only to cleansed skin. There should be no “old” makeup on your face. If you decide to apply a fresh one on top of the previous layer, you will get a layer cake, the foundation will roll off and will not look the best. Pre-wash your face using a cleanser (gel, foam, mousse) or simply dip cotton pad in micellar water and wipe the skin, removing accumulated impurities;
2. After cleansing, you need to apply a moisturizer that suits your skin type. This step is done 15-20 minutes before applying makeup;
3. Be sure to let the cream absorb. Otherwise, the foundation will not lie evenly and will not adhere well;
4. After 20 minutes, you can begin applying decorative cosmetics. First, spread a small amount of primer (makeup base) all over your face and neck. This is done so that all subsequent products adhere to each other and last throughout the day. Also, the base will additionally smooth out the skin texture and the foundation will be applied without problems;
5. with the result you want: matting and control of oily shine, hydration and nutrition, longevity of makeup;
6. After the primer has “settled” on your face, you can apply the foundation in the method you choose: with your fingers, sponge or brush;
7. When finished, set the foundation on the skin with powder. It will also create the necessary base for applying all subsequent dry products (blush, contouring, bronzer, highlighter).

On this moment Almost all cosmetics brands produce their own foundations. The price depends on the brand of the product and starts from 200 rubles.

There are several varieties of foundation, which Lately are gaining popularity among the fair sex. These are bb cream and cc cream. Let's talk about them in detail and find out how they differ from each other and who they are suitable for.

BB-CREME

Created for

• Skin smoothing;
• Correcting minor imperfections;
• Improved appearance;
• Pore ​​filling;

BB cream is much lighter in texture compared to regular foundation. It can be used as a base for makeup or simply applied to the face for a fresh look. This product is ideal for the summer, when you don’t want to weigh down your skin with thick products, and the BB cream allows the pores to breathe without clogging them.

Also, bb cream can well moisturize the face and protect it from the harmful effects of sunlight, since many products include SPF.

This cosmetic product is suitable for any skin type, but is best combined with dry and normal skin types. It will not mask severe problems on the face, but it is quite suitable for daily wear if you need light correction and improvement of appearance.

Peculiarities

1. Able to adapt to skin color;
2. Has a very light texture;
3. The consistency is denser and thicker than that of a regular foundation;
4. Does not create a mask effect on the face;
5. Can be used as a base for makeup or worn on its own.

CC-CREME

Created for

• Skin smoothing;
• Correcting imperfections;
• Improved appearance;
• Pore ​​filling;
• Protect your face from weather conditions (heat, frost, wind).

CC cream is an improved version of BB cream, which is several times more effective than the first product.

This tool is multifunctional. It can be used as a foundation, concealer, corrector, moisturizer, wrinkle treatment, makeup base, and even as a sunscreen product.

The cost of the product is slightly higher, and the texture is even lighter and airier, but this does not affect its covering ability, but quite the opposite: CC cream masks skin imperfections much better, mattifies it, and gives natural look, does not weigh down and perfectly moisturizes throughout the day. Also, thanks to its improved properties, this cream can also be used in the area around the eyes. This is what distinguishes bb from cc cream.

Makeup artists say that CC cream is suitable mainly for dry skin types, but you can choose it for others, you just need to try different options.

CC cream also adapts perfectly to your complexion, and there is no need to test many samples. Typically the line includes light shades (for light skin), medium (medium undertone) and dark (dark and tanned skin, as well as for blacks).

2. If skin problems are more pronounced, redness and pimples are present, then it is better to give preference to CC cream. It will not weigh down the skin, but at the same time it will cover everything well.

Conclusion

Conclusion

Healthy, glowing skin is the result of not only genetics, but also cosmetics. By choosing the right product for yourself that will hide all imperfections and make you look fresher and more rested, you will provide yourself with confidence and a beautiful appearance that will attract attention.

Every month several new BB creams appear on the shelves of cosmetic stores. Moreover, Dior released a cream for the eye area, and L’Oreal Paris launched concealer, powder and blush, all with the BB prefix. Meanwhile, beauty brands continue to explore the next letters of the alphabet. Meet CC creams.

What is CC cream

Before we start getting to know a newbie, let’s remember what’s so good about the beloved blemish balm (aka blemish base, beauty balm, beauty benefit). Of course, with its versatility. One bibi should replace seven products: foundation, moisturizer and sunscreen, acne cream, anti-aging care (fighting wrinkles, pigmentation, increasing firmness and elasticity), makeup base (for matting or for radiance) and corrector. The offer to save money and space in the cosmetic bag was accepted with a bang. And now specialists in their laboratories are mixing new cocktail- better than before.

The abbreviation CC cream also has several meanings: Complete Correction ( full correction) or the more common Color Control. Like its predecessor, the newcomer came to us from Asia. The first sign was released by the Singaporean company Rachel K back in early 2011 (interestingly, three months later the first BB cream Murasaki Japan had just appeared in Russia). Mineral CC Cream conquered Asian women with its high content of plant extracts and pink tint, starting a new trend.

So what is boob cream? Nothing more than an improved version of BB. In Russian transcription, the name can mean “The Most.” First of all, the CC cream contains less oils, due to which the texture has become lighter (which allows us to draw an analogy with a tinted moisturizer). Despite this, the visual alignment of skin tone and texture has increased. This gives every right to apply the product to the area around the eyes - both for camouflage and for care. The new product also guarantees simultaneous glow, like after a vacation, and mattification of the T-zone. They also worked on durability: powder to fix makeup is no longer needed. Moreover, it extinguishes the glow. There are even more moisturizing, anti-aging and other beneficial additives. The sun protection factor remained at the same level (from 10 to 30). As is the case with bibi creams, the color range is modest - two or three shades. However, the ability to adapt to skin tone has also improved.

If BB creams, as if forgetting about their full name “balm for imperfections”, want to embrace the immensity, then another feature of CC creams is to narrow the scope of activity. Some are aimed at visual special effects (disguising everything unnecessary, giving the skin radiance and healthy looking), that is, they provide the same “color control”. The task of others is to prolong the youth of the skin plus light toning. Now the skin different types and age will receive exactly what he needs most.

How to use CC cream

Those with normal skin can apply CC cream directly to a cleansed face. For fatty and combined type CC cream is good to use as a base for foundation or mixed with it. For those who are concerned about dryness and flaking, it is recommended to mix the new product with a moisturizer.

To be continued

While the Russian beauty market is preparing for the invasion of CC creams, the American brand Julep is releasing the first DD cream and DD concealer. The abbreviation stands for Dynamic Do-all, that is, “does everything and quickly.” I wonder what manufacturers will come up with to combine EE, FF and other letters of the alphabet..

What's happenedBB-cream and when did it appear?

Initially, the history of BB cream began in Germany back in 1968. Dermatologist Christina Schrammek used the “progenitor” of modern BB: with its help it was possible to mask the consequences surgical intervention or hard peelings. At the same time, the cream itself, unlike similar concealers of that time, had a calming and wound-healing effect, which was so necessary for patients. After 30 years, the formula of the product was improved and supplemented by Korean researchers, and the BB cream was released international market. The brand SKIN79 was the first to introduce bibiki. And in shortest time the novelty became a hit that quickly began to capture the public's attention. Not one, but 10 Korean brands produce BB creams, followed by European and American ones... And yet, it is Korean manufacturers that still hold the palm, producing the best BB creams, which have a lot of advantages over others.

BB cream is now a “universal soldier” who is at the same time a reader, a reaper, and a trumpet player. Bibik does a good job of hiding skin imperfections, such as wrinkles, pimples, redness, and makes facial skin clean, fresh and rested. Any BB cream, regardless of the manufacturer’s brand, combines the properties of foundation and day creams, performing both decorative and caring functions: it corrects facial tone and hides minor imperfections, as well as moisturizes and nourishes the skin, heals minor inflammations and imperfections.

Main advantages and functionsBB creams

Not even 10 years have passed since the release of the first BB cream in 2011, but today it is difficult to find a BB cream that has not yet been invented. BB creams are represented by leading European, American and Korean brands; BB creams can be found in the price category from 300 to 3000 rubles per product (or even higher). BB creams are available in the lines of almost all major cosmetic brands peace. Dozens of types of BB creams for every taste and color: BB creams for different shades skin, BB creams for men's skin BB creams for sensitive, oily and combination skin, anti-aging bibs... Although their texture is appearance they are not very different from each other: But the set of basic properties of all BB creams is the same: the product evens out the tone, hides imperfections, disguises scars and scars, hides post-acne spots, pigmentation and freckles. BB creams can be divided into types based on finish:

Mattifying BB cream – great option for oily and combination skin. Matte BB creams help control work sebaceous glands, eliminate imperfections and prevent the appearance of oily skin.

Satin BB cream - delicately illuminates the skin, filling it with moisture, and giving the effect of well-groomed and rested skin, smooth and velvety. Perfect option, if you are at the same time not delighted with matte skin, and want to give it a natural look.

Glossy BB cream - to create the famous Korean “chok-chok” effect, when the skin literally glows and looks fresh and rested. Not all girls like the glossy finish, since for many it is associated with an oily sheen on the skin.

How does BB cream differ from other foundations?

First of all, BB cream is distinguished by its effective formula. The percentage of coloring pigment in it is low - from 10% to 30%, whereas for conventional foundations it varies from 70% to 90%. But such an amount of coloring pigment guarantees that the pores will become clogged, and the makeup itself will look unnatural and will remind you of plaster. From 90% to 70% (minimum) percent in BB cream are caring components that will take care of your skin, improving its condition. Korean manufacturers are confident that it is better to treat skin imperfections, not hide them!

The most common types of BB creams

Bibiki can be distinguished not only by the type of their finish, but also by the most popular components and their functionality:

Snail BB cream

Bibiki based on snail mucin can safely be considered one of the most popular. Snail mucin has a healing effect, helps speed up the process of skin regeneration, fills it with moisture and at the same time nourishes it, eliminating various imperfections and preventing the appearance of pimples. BB creams from Mizon based on snail mucus have become especially famous. For example, its dense coverage perfectly hides imperfections while healing the skin. But other Korean manufacturers are not lagging behind: it is also good, and it is literally “stepping on its heels.” What’s especially nice is that BB cream with snail mucin can be used on both young and old aging skin– in both cases, he adapts to her problems. It will smooth out age spots, and cure young ones from acne and acne.

Moisturizing BB cream

All self-respecting Korean brands create bibs with a moisturizing effect that will protect the skin from dehydration. In their composition you will find collagen, hyaluronic acid, or NMF moisturizing factor. From our assortment, this is, for example, and, although it is quite difficult to find a Korean bib that does not at least slightly moisturize the skin. After all, all Koreans know that moisturized skin = young skin

Anti-aging BB cream

Anti-aging lipsticks began to appear relatively recently, since initially the product itself was positioned as a product for young skin. But gradually, boosters for aging skin began to appear. The Missha brand products were the first to become known - and. Both BB creams contain a huge amount of anti-aging components, and despite the “biting” price, they are in wide demand, because they really cope with such a task as lightly lifting the skin and smoothing out small wrinkles. But it’s more difficult to wash off such BB creams due to their dense texture - don’t forget about hydrophilic oil, otherwise they can clog your pores. In anti-aging BBs you will find peptides, snail mucin in combination with EGF, peptides, swallow's nest extract or niacinamide with adenosine - because they also prevent the appearance of age-related pigmentation.

How to choose the right BB cream depending on your skin type?

Korean manufacturers, when choosing a BB cream, as well as when choosing a regular face cream, recommend paying attention to its composition, and, of course, your skin type.

For oily and combination skin

The main task when choosing a highlighter for this skin type is that it does not clog pores, is not comedogenic, and has a matte finish - after all, owners of this skin type most often suffer from the appearance of an oily sheen on their face. It is best to choose a product marked oil-free and containing plant extracts. BB creams are also great for narrowing pores - for example, . These bibs must contain absorbent components.

For problem skin

Choose products that will treat your skin without being too heavy on coverage. Important components for this skin type are snail mucin, witch hazel extract, Birch juice, aloe vera extract. From our assortment this is and.

For dry skin

The best option would be a product with a slightly thinner texture than conventional BB creams - this will not emphasize flaking. And of course, the composition should contain hyaluronic acid, collagen, plant extracts, thermal water. Among Korean remedies It won’t be difficult to find one - the main thing is that you feel comfortable using it!

For normal skin

Of course, those with normal skin are something of a myth in our age, and if you exist, please write to us in the comments! And yet, those with normal skin can afford to choose a BB cream with a light texture with a matte or satin finish and moisturizing ingredients. It’s also a good idea if it contains antioxidants, vitamins C and E - they definitely won’t hurt. A cream with strong moisturizing ingredients will also be useful to you, as it will help make the surface of the skin more even.

This is where you can finish with skin type and move on to one of the most famous and frequently asked questions.

What is the difference between BB cream and CC cream?

CC cream is a product that was developed after BB cream, and is not so popular yet. Why? It's about the texture of the product and its masking ability. CC cream has an even lighter, oil-free formula and contains almost no coloring pigment. But it contains a huge amount of caring substances, even more than BB creams. But the texture of the product does not allow you to hide serious and even semi-serious skin imperfections. It perfectly evens out skin tone, fights uneven tone and redness, perfectly moisturizes the skin and fills it with moisture. But, you understand that such a light product is suitable for skin without any special drawbacks. Therefore, if you are that mythical owner of normal skin without pimples, blackheads, freckles and pronounced wrinkles, then feel free to choose CC cream. Although, by the way, CC cream is also good for the summer - when the skin does not need a thick layer of BB cream.

The abbreviation CC itself stands for Color Control Cream, a cream for correcting complexion. Actually, CC cream really perfectly corrects skin tone, and even adapts well to it. Therefore, CC creams are most often produced in one shade - white, and this same white magically, when applied to the skin, adapts to its color. It is almost impossible to get a “mask” effect when applying CC cream to the skin (well, unless you are naturally a chocolate mulatto), while BB creams, if you go too far with their amount, can still create such an effect. By the way, about shades: BB creams are most often produced in two colors: light beige and natural beige, but many brands, for example, Misha, expand the color palette, and among them you can find very light BBs for Snow White (13 tone), and for owners of very dark skin - 23 and 26 tones.

Both BB and CC creams contain sunscreen factors, helping the skin to withstand the harmful effects of ultraviolet rays. So any product you choose will be a reliable help against skin photoaging - after all, all Koreans know how dangerous Sun rays. By the way, many Korean BBs contain lightening components, which must be taken into account when choosing a product.

To summarize the first part of our article: Korean BB creams are a very cool thing! By choosing the right product, you can hide skin imperfections and heal it at the same time. And in the summer heat, a light CC cream will be your salvation, especially if your skin has virtually no imperfections. And BB cream will become a good helper in spring or autumn, and especially in winter, when our skin needs reliable protection from temperature changes, wind and cold.
