Women and girls take care of their appearance and flawless makeup every day. However, not everyone has free time for quality skin care. The situation can be simplified by multifunctional cosmetics, for example, BB cream (original name blemish balm cream).

What is BB cream

These are products that combine caring and decorative properties. The product combines:

  1. day cream for face care;
  2. Foundation;
  3. fillers that are responsible for health and beautiful appearance.

Products that care for oily skin can act in different ways:

  1. tighten pores;
  2. control the release of oil from the pores;
  3. remove oily shine;
  4. protect from the sun;
  5. smooth out wrinkles (age effect);
  6. bleach;
  7. reduce irritation;
  8. treat acne, wounds.

Simply put, BB cream (“bibik” in popular parlance) is both a foundation and a day cream for the face. It is used as a makeup base, daily care product or as a foundation.

Attention! Bibik has a light texture, so it does not completely hide rough skin imperfections.

Which BB cream to choose

Rare people can boast of normal skin type. Most girls and women have one problem or another. Often, facial skin is irritable or shiny (problem type). Very often the skin suffers in certain parts: on the nose, cheeks, forehead and chin (combination skin type). Therefore, many people have a question about how to choose the best BB cream for combination skin.

It is known that any skin type other than normal is problematic. Dry skin becomes irritated too quickly. Oily - quickly becomes clogged and is characterized by the appearance of acne. That is why BB creams for combination skin, which are suitable for both oily and dry skin, are the most popular.

BB cream is not as thick as foundation, so it is ideal for problem skin. It makes imperfections more invisible, soothes inflamed areas, tightens pores, and normalizes fat secretion. At the same time, it allows you to breathe and prevents contamination of pores from the external environment.

Attention! Bibik can adapt to the complexion - applied to the skin it lightens or darkens.

To choose the right tone, you need to try not on your hand, but on your neck or below your chin. Choose a color as close as possible to your complexion.

You definitely need to look at the consistency of the product and how it applies to the skin. It’s good if the manufacturer offers disposable samples. Having purchased them, make sure that the BB cream will stay on your face throughout the day, will not leave marks on clothes, and will not cause discomfort after removing makeup.

Also, before using any product, you need to carefully read the composition, make sure that it does not cause allergies, and consult a dermatologist.

Important! You should not “bet” on Korean BB cream for problem skin - it may not be suitable due to the peculiarity of the complexion of Koreans.

How to use the cream correctly

When choosing a BB cream for problem skin, you should understand the rules of use. The selected cream should be applied to skin that has been washed and cleansed with special products (tonic, micellar water). If pores are visible, then use a product to disguise them. Then, using your fingers, a sponge or a makeup brush, rub the creamy mass into the skin.

It is better to apply the cream with warm hands

When applied with your fingers, the beebik will melt from the warmth of your hands. This makes it easier to control the distribution of thick cream over the face. It will lie much smoother and more evenly. With this method of application, shine appears.

The sponge is ideal for oily skin; before use, moisten it with thermal water. It will gently spread the product, removing oily shine. In this case, it is necessary to control the pressure on the treated areas, not too much and apply even pressure on the sponge.

The makeup brush is convenient to use when the consistency is liquid. This makes it easier to distribute it evenly over the surface. You need to make sure that the strokes are the same and small. At the same time, the pressure on the skin is minimal.

The correct way to apply the cream is as follows:

  1. Using your fingers, leave a little (drop by drop) of cream on your forehead, nose, chin, and both cheeks.
  2. Decide on the application “tool” and then do everything with its help.
  3. Starting from the middle of the forehead, rub into the skin, moving towards the temples and down.
  4. On the nose, spread the mixture from the middle towards the cheeks.
  5. On the chin also from the middle.
  6. On the cheeks, rub in a direction parallel to the cheekbones, away from the nose and chin.
  7. Apply carefully around the eyes because the skin is very delicate. Move starting from the upper eyelid, around the eye, from the bridge of the nose.
  8. Carefully distribute the product at the joints of the zones so that they do not stand out.

Important! You need to follow the rules for removing makeup, otherwise the BB cream will clog your pores and cause harm, not good. Regular neglect of cleaning with special means will not lead to anything good.

Seasonal BB cream

The product for this season should be light, allow the skin to breathe, and protect from the sun. But, at the same time, remove excess oil, moisturize, and nourish.

Attention! Even a “Bibik” with a high sun protection factor (SPF) effect will not be able to protect against burns on the beach. It is worth using a sunscreen of at least SPF 30-35.

Also, it is better to choose high-quality cosmetics so that they do not fail during the heat and the makeup lasts in the heat until the evening.

Facial cosmetics must be of the highest quality

Using the same product in winter as in summer is not correct. You need to change it to another one, for skin that is an order of magnitude drier than the existing type. If your skin is oily, then it is suitable for problem skin types.

There should be a sun protection effect, but not more than SPF 10-15. Otherwise, little vitamin D will enter the body.

Important! After applying makeup, you can go outside only after 30-40 minutes. So that the cream is absorbed and dried, and also to protect your face from chapping.

The quality of the cream must be very good in order to withstand temperature changes between outdoor and indoor temperatures, moisture, and the touch of clothing.

Compatibility with other cosmetics

Women who often do makeup know that one product is not enough. It is necessary to complete the cosmetics so that they do not “conflict” and do not cause allergies. Most often, they focus on a separate series, the components of which are already balanced and safe when used together. Such products complement each other and consist of 3-6 products.

To ensure healthy looking skin, cream alone is not enough.

If you urgently need to mix products that have not been tested by cosmetologists, then it is advisable to check the effect not on the face. First you need to combine the necessary ingredients, and then treat a small area on the inside of your arm. Leave for 30-40 minutes, then rinse and watch the reaction.

You can combine BB cream with:

  1. day cream (for better nutrition and hydration);
  2. highlighter (for shine);
  3. lipstick (instead of blush, the color can be controlled depending on the amount of lipstick added);
  4. bronzer;
  5. BB cream of a different shade (getting a better matching tone);
  6. oil (to nourish dry skin);
  7. foundation (to saturate the tone);
  8. eye shadow (instead of eyeliner).

Important! When the two products are mixed correctly, they become a homogeneous mass. If lumps appear or the mixture curdles and releases liquid, something has gone wrong.

BB cream has simplified life for millions of women and girls. But when using it, you need to remember the dangers of violating the rules of cleaning and application. You need to keep in mind that a high product rating is not a guarantee that it will suit all “users.” Every woman should find her best BB cream.

One of the most comfortable foundations for the summer season, BB cream not only evens out the complexion, but also provides the skin with intense hydration. A good choice for dry, oily and even problematic skin.

What is special about choosing a BB cream for the summer?

serves as a good moisturizer;

mattifies skin areas with increased sebum secretion;

Plus evens out the complexion and provides hydration.

Composition of funds

The main criterion when choosing a BB cream is your skin type. © Getty Images

The main rule when choosing a BB cream is to focus on your skin type, because modern products in this category, in addition to camouflaging pimples and hyperpigmentation, can correct other imperfections.

Oily and problematic skin

Since it is prone to excessive shine, your choice is a BB cream with a mattifying effect, without added oils (non-comedogenic guarantee). Ideally, with a formula based on salicylic acid and antioxidants. All together will help to cope with problems.

Dry and sensitive skin

If you have sensitive skin that begins to peel for any reason, pay attention to products that contain thermal water, hyaluronic acid, glycerin, and squalane. The presence of oils is also a plus. They will make your skin smooth and soft.

Normal skin

One can only envy those with normal skin - it seems that they are not afraid of any problems. When purchasing a cream, rely on moisturizing components, antioxidants, vitamins - they will help cope with minor defects.
