I confess, I have yet to try BB Cream, but am tempted to go shopping this week and give it a whirl!!!
So what the heck is BB Cream anyway?
According to Squidoo!! “Originally a product from Korea, BB Cream or Blemish Balm Cream is among Asia’s hottest beauty products right now. Where did it come from and how did it become so popular?
The formula is reported to have come from Germany where dermatologists use it for healing laser skin surgery because of its characteristic soothing and skin-regenerating properties. Famous South Korean actresses then began using it for beauty purposes and since Asian dramas and hallyu is huge, a craze was born. The trend that started in Korea first spread to Japan then to South East Asia and has now quickly made its way to Europe and the USA.”
Most reputable makeup brands on the western retail shelves are now offering their own versions of this popular Asian, wonder cream.
Here are just a few examples.
Just visit Sephora (my ultimate stop for makeup and beauty heaven!!!)
http://www.sephora.com/browse/section.jhtml?categoryId=C24300&searchString=bb%20cream to do a little research and if you stop by one of the stores, you can always ask for a sample. They are very generous with letting you try before you commit!
Have you used or are using BB Cream?! If so, share what you love about it and which product you use before I go out shopping this weekend!!
