Every couple of years a new product comes along that no one has ever heard of and then BAM! All of a sudden it is everywhere!
Mineral foundations, Primers, "Natural" products, Lip Plumping glosses. One day no one is carrying them and then the next everyone is stocking them on their shelves.
The latest product that is going to hit the cosmetics industry by storm is BB Creams.
So what is a BB Cream?
BB originally stood for Blemish Balm but I have recently heard it described as a Beauty Balm as well. They originated in South Korea, spread to Japan, then to South East Asia and now they are popping up in the good ole' USA!
BB Creams were originally formulated for people who just had laser treatments and the BB Cream helped heel the skin while providing light coverage for scars and discoloration. Now they seem to be targeted towards people who have acne prone or sensitive skin.
BB Creams are intended to make your skin look perfect, provide coverage and have healing properties. They are a foundation, primer, concealer, moisturizer, sunblock and treatment cream all in one! Depending on which brand you choose, they come in varying degrees of coverage, protection or nourishment. The one complaint I have heard is because it is not technically a foundation, they usually only come in 1 or 2 shades, however now that the bigger cosmetics companies have picked up on the trend, I am sure there will be plenty of shades to pick from!
Does this all in one product sound too good to be true or does it sound like a bunch of hype? Do you think they will take off like a wild fire or will they be forgotten by next year?
I have never used a BB Cream but quite honestly they sound like a really good tinted moisturizer just like Little Goddess Mineral Sheer Tint SPF 20. LGC Mineral Sheer Tints are a foundation, moisturizer and Sunblock all in one! AND it has anti-aging properties!
So if this sounds like a product you would be interested in, keep your eyes and ears open because I am sure you will be seeing them everywhere!
Or
You can just try Little Goddess Cosmetic's Mineral Sheer Tint SPF 20!
**Another trend for Spring: People seem to be moving away from the very popular lip glosses that have dominated for the past few years and shifting back to wearing lipsticks!**
