| What are CC Creams |
What are CC Creams?
CC creams are also known as color control cream or color
correcting cream. These are primarily meant to give you a better complexion and
a youthful glow to your skin by reducing dark spots, hiding skin blemishes. They
help to moisturize your skin and prevent discoloration of the skin. The cc
creams target hyperpigmentation, wrinkles and fine lines.
How CC Creams are
different than BB Creams?
BB creams stand for beauty balm cream or blemish balm cream.
This is seen as a makeup product as it gives you an all in one cream- primer,
foundation, concealer, sunscreen and serum. These were originally developed in
Germany and then became famous in Asian Countries. Now they have moved on to US
and European countries too. CC creams
were first of all developed in Korea in order to address the need of skin
discoloration.
These are said to be different than bb creams because cc creams
are known to be lighter in texture and even provide a more natural coverage to
your skin than bb creams. BB creams on the other hand are like a bit of tinted moisturizer.
Basically, it can be said that cc creams contain all the benefits of bb creams
but they also have added nourishing ingredients which give a more subtle coverage to your
skin. CC creams blends more finely into your skin than bb creams and appears
less oily too.
Features of BB creams include:
- Provides a natural looking makeup
- Hides away skin blemishes and pigmentation
- Contains healing properties.
- Act as a moisturizer for your skin.
- Helps in reducing shine on the skin.
- Gives a youthful glow to the skin.
- Anti wrinkle properties
- Protects from harmful rays of the sun.
- Helps in lightening the skin.
These were some of the benefits of using bb creams, now let
me introduce you to some of the benefits of cc creams. CC creams have all the
benefits of bb creams but they are of lighter consistency than bb creams.
Features of CC creams include:
- Help in hydrating the skin.
- Helps in smoothing the skin tone.
- Acts as a primer for skin.
- Good for those with dull skin.
- Protects the skin from environmental damage.
- Gives a seamless coverage to your skin.
- Helps in correcting your skin color and makes it brighter.

| BB Creams VS CC Creams |
Which one to choose-
BB creams or CC creams?
Well, of course you might by now be a bit puzzled as to what
will work the best for you, should go for bb creams and ignore the cc creams or
rather leave bb creams and move on with cc creams. Isn’t?
In my opinion, if you have fair and normal skin tone then
you should go ahead with bb creams but if you have skin discoloration and want
to give an extra coverage to your skin tone, then cc creams will do the best
for you. These are good for those with acne prone skin. CC creams are more of a
skin care product than a makeup product. BB creams are said to be more
preventive while CC creams are more corrective.
