What is the difference between BB creams and CC creams?

There are so many different options when it comes to base products nowadays. With foundations, tinted moisturizers, BB creams, CC creams, and more it can be confusing to know which option is best for you. One of the most common questions is what is the difference between BB creams and CC creams?

The difference between BB and CC creams is actually quite subtle. CC typically stands for colour correcting and so CC creams are designed to address issues such as redness or sallowness. BB creams on the other hand are typically a lighter foundation with some skincare benefits in the formula as well. CC creams typically offer a bit more coverage and often protect your skin from the sun as well.

We are a huge believer in CC creams which is why we developed our  Your Skin But Better CC+ Cream with SPF 50+!

Our incredible foundation is like having seven products in one, which is pretty amazing! Whether you're a girl on the go who needs to apply her makeup efficiently or just prefer a streamlined makeup routine, you'll love this multi-purpose foundation! Not only is it a full coverage foundation, but it's also a UVA/UVB broad spectrum physical sunscreen, a brightening colour corrector, a hydrating anti-aging serum, a poreless finish primer, a dark spot concealer, and a moisturizing day cream all in one easy step!
