BB, CC Cream or DD? Natural hydration and comfort of the colored face cream.
Natural hydration and comfort. We often hear about BB Cream and colored face cream CC, (sometimes also DD and EE) we have asked ourselves the fateful dilemma, what are the major differences between the two and the best on the market?
BB CREAM
The name BB cream stands for blemish balm, blemish base or beblesh balm and in Western markets beauty balm. It is an ultra light coverage suitable for a covering effect but less heavy than foundation. The BB cream creates an extremely natural and light complexion by protecting the skin evenly by hydrating it.

Colored face cream BB FOR FACE MAKEUP
The name BB cream stands for blemish balm, blemish base or beblesh balm and in Western markets beauty balm. It is an ultra light coverage suitable for a covering effect but less heavy than foundation.
BB cream creates an extremely natural complexion for the face makeup and light, protecting, evening out and correcting the complexion, ideal for young skin, it is suitable for eliminating the heaviness effect that sometimes characterizes foundation, however it has a more oily texture and is therefore not recommended for those with combination or oily skin while it is perfect for those who suffer from dry skin.
For this type of creams we highlight the best ones we have tried:
Clarins BB Skin Perfecting Cream SPF 25
Estée Lauder DayWear BB Cream SPF 35 Clinique Age Defense BB Cream Daily anti-aging protection SPF 30
COLORED FACE CREAM DD CREAM FOR MAKE UP
Daily Defense was launched in America as a cream capable of defending the skin from atmospheric attacks and pollution. It contains the same properties as BB Cream and CC but has been enriched with anti-aging components that hydrate the skin and prevent the formation of wrinkles.
Furthermore, there are many variants on the market with self-tanner which does not aim to color the skin but stimulates the production of melatonin upon first contact with the sun's rays. DD Cream is therefore more suitable for mature skin, for those looking for a uniform anti-aging base.
CC – Corrective Color Cream
After BB, CC was born, Corrective Color Cream or Color Control is an evolution of BB, this product was designed to effectively correct skin tone defects. Despite having a very light texture, the CC cream promises almost perfect coverage and an even complexion.
CC also has a more protective function, in fact it contains SPF sun filters of various grades and antioxidants. It also guarantees both deep daytime hydration and a light and compact complexion. It has a more covering texture than BB Cream. The CC cream is recommended for women aged 30 to 40 and suitable for those with combination or oily skin.
