Moisturizing cream for perfect skin tone Aquasource BB Cream, Biotherm (RUB 1,720)

BB cream from Biotherm is released as part of the Aquasource line, which means that you don’t have to worry about moisturizing your facial skin, because it contains thermal plankton, which allows you to retain moisture for a long time. BB cream has a light translucent texture that literally “melts” on the skin and does not clog pores. It evens out the surface and tone of the skin, masks imperfections, eliminates signs of fatigue, slightly mattifies and gives the face a soft glow. Hyaluronic acid, which is part of the product, not only qualitatively moisturizes, but also promotes regeneration of facial skin, and thermal plankton extract soothes and nourishes. By the way, like most BB creams, it contains UV filters. The line includes products for dry, normal, mixed and oily skin types, as well as for skin requiring anti-aging care and the delicate area around the eyes.

BB Cream “Secret of Perfection”, Garnier (240 RUR)

To achieve a perfectly even complexion, girls are sometimes ready to apply a whole arsenal of concealers. However, if you are not a fan of too dense textures, then we suggest paying attention to the “Secret of Perfection” BB cream from Garnier. It moisturizes the skin for 24 hours, giving it a radiant fresh look, evens out the tone, hiding imperfections, and protects against ultraviolet radiation. The product does not contain fats and oils, only vitamins and mineral pigments. The product is presented in two shades - light beige and natural beige, but you don’t need more, because it perfectly matches your skin tone.

Hydra Sparkling Nude Look BB cream, Givenchy (RUB 2,580)

Hydra Sparkling Nude Look BB cream from Givenchy can replace several cosmetic products at once. This multi-tasking cream is enriched with Sparkling Water Complex to instantly leave skin with a natural glow upon application. The mineral pigments included in the cream can hide even age spots, imperfections and severe redness, contrary to popular belief that BB creams cannot cope with such a difficult task. You will forget about oily shine in the T-zone for at least 5-6 hours; special ingredients are responsible for the dullness of the skin. At the same time, mineral filters SPF 30 protect the skin from the damaging effects of ultraviolet radiation (UVA and UVB rays). From the first application, Givenchy experts promise, the BB cream will even out and smooth out the skin texture.

BB cream BB Beauty Booster, Guerlain (RUB 2,985)

The main component of Guerlain's BB Beauty Booster is the Bio-Fusion micro-mesh complex, which is included in all products in the Lingerie de Peau range. The second ingredient, which almost no care product can do without, is hyaluronic acid, known for its moisturizing properties. BB cream lays down with a thin invisible veil due to the formula with silk and linen. The skin becomes velvety and soft. The cream is called Lingerie de Peau for a reason; it “tightens” your skin like thin linen, creating an imperceptible, even coverage. Sun protection is one of the main functions of any BB cream. Lingerie de Peau BB Beauty Booster is no exception, the level of protection is stated as SPF 30, it protects against both types of UVA and UVB rays. Let's talk separately about the smell; the product has a light and delicate floral aroma with notes of sweet raspberries and peach.

Soothing and moisturizing BB cream Hydra Zen Beauty Balm, Lancome (RUB 2,230)

The uniqueness of Lancome's Hydra Zen Beauty Balm BB cream is that it is designed specifically for skin prone to irritation, so it can rightfully be called a foundation for problem skin. The NeuroCalm complex instantly soothes the skin and relieves the effects of external and internal stress. Lipidure microcapsules, hyaluronic acid, vectorized ceramides and a high concentration of glycerin maintain skin hydration levels for 24 hours. A complex of mineral micropigments provides a natural (without mask effect) even skin tone.

Makeup base with protective factor Prep + Prime BB Beauty Balm, M.A.C (RUB 1,430)

The Prep + Prime BB Beauty Balm formula from M.A.C is rich in pearl pigments, so the product gently illuminates the skin from the inside, evening out the tone and hiding imperfections. In addition, it contains a high sun protection factor SPF 35, which is designed to protect sensitive fair skin from solar radiation. The BB cream is available in three translucent shades (for very fair, fair and fair skin with olive undertones). It can be applied either with your fingers or with a special brush, Brush #191 Square Foundation, which the brand’s experts prudently added to the collection. By the way, BB cream is also presented in the format of a compact makeup base in a convenient package with a mirror. Choose which texture you like best!

BB Cream Care 8-in-1 “Instant Glow”, Maybelline New York (RUB 329)

An excellent water-gel based product for every day: moisturizes the skin, gives it a healthy appearance and smoothness. BB cream independently adapts to skin tone (although there are already three shades in the line), but has a low “hiding” ability. However, this is an absolute plus of the product, since for serious cases there are thick foundation creams. The official makeup artist of Maybelline New York in Russia, Yuri Stolyarov, advises applying the product with the pads of your fingers using patting movements - like a regular day cream for the face.

Modern BB creams (Blemish Baim) - these are products that act on the “all in one” principle, and usually combine a facial skin care cream, foundation, UV protection, skin whitening, oil removal and others.

BB creams appeared quite a long time ago, but Asian cosmetologists were the first to release them onto the wider market. At first, these creams gained popularity among a limited circle of media personalities, and then manufacturers launched BB creams into mass production. After the success of creams from Korean manufacturers, famous cosmetic concerns began to produce these creams. Today there are dozens of BB creams, they differ in action, price and country of origin. Asian creams are more stable and better smooth the skin, while European ones moisturize and mask better.

In this article I will give a rating of the most popular BB creams from various manufacturers.

Today, the leaders in the BB cream market are:

The best BB creams for normal skin

Missha Perfect Cover

This cream has not only earned popularity among millions of women, but also received many awards. First of all, customers and experts note the good composition of this cream; it perfectly moisturizes the skin and hides the first signs of aging. The BB cream contains not only collagen, ceramides and hyaluronic acid, but also nourishing oils and extracts.

The product has a rather dense structure; it is applied with a sponge or with your fingers; the second option is preferable, since the cream softens a little when exposed to heat. Due to its dense texture, the cream masks skin imperfections very well and lasts a long time, but it does not clog into the folds of the skin and does not give the effect of a mask on the face. When using the cream, the skin becomes more hydrated and imperfections are less noticeable.

The name of the product speaks for itself. After applying the cream, the skin begins to shine with silver sparkles. This is because the manufacturer included diamond dust and platinum in the product.

L'Oreal Nude Magique

One of the main competitors of the Korean manufacturer. This cream is a unique development; it contains tiny capsules with a foundation. In the tube, the cream is liquid and colorless, but immediately after application it adapts to the skin tone. The cream does not have a strong odor, so it is suitable for a woman who prefers to apply cosmetics without specific scents to her face.

Today, BB creams are confidently pushing aside conventional foundations, because every woman wants the skin of her face not only to look well-groomed and beautiful at any time of the day, but also to receive high-quality care, and BB creams cope with this task just perfectly .

Having confidently burst into the cosmetology market, BB creams have finally won women’s hearts. Developed in Germany, this product gained further distribution and recognition in Asian countries. Therefore, do not be surprised that at the moment the best brands that have launched the production of BB cream are Asian companies.

The best manufacturers

1. Misshais a leading Korean cosmetic brand, whose line of BB creams breaks all records of international popularity.
2. Skin 79 is an equally well-known Korean company that produces its products (including these creams) in strict accordance with international CGMP standards.
3. EtudeHouse – is a South Korean cosmetics company that produces the best natural BB creams, mostly aimed at skin rejuvenation.
4. Innisfree – also from Korea, the products of this company are distinguished by powerful antibacterial and antioxidant properties.

When not to use BB creams

It turns out that you shouldn’t give in to the massive (albeit understandable) craze for such products; in some cases, cosmetologists advise not to use creams of this kind:

1. It is not recommended to purchase BB cream if you have not already acquired special deep-spectrum makeup removers. No matter what brand the cream is, it will certainly clog the pores tightly due to the silicones it contains. The best way to remove it is considered hydrophilic oil.
2. Don't rush to buy Asian BB creams if you have dark skin. As a rule, their color palette is not diverse, because they adapt to skin tone. However, not many means can “interrupt” natural dark skin.
3. You should not use such a cream, no matter how popular it may be, if you do not experience any special skin problems. After all, its main purpose is to disguise shortcomings and prevent their occurrence.
