What is BB Cream?

BB Cream has certainly created quite the beauty buzz this year. The first question most people ask is what is BB Cream and what does BB stand for? Some companies refer to them as Blemish Balms others, Beauty Balms; the general consensus however is that they are a multi-tasking beauty product that can have up to 7 different benefits.

Originating in Germany by dermatologists, BB Creams were at first created to protect and cover patient’s skin after surgery or laser treatments. They were then hurled into popularity when Korean actresses raved about how amazing they made their skin look. The phenomenon then spread across Asia, and now the BB Buzz is worldwide!
