BB Cream Introduction

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


BB cream, also known as Blemish Balm or Blemish Base, is a cosmetic item sold in Korea.

BB cream started out as a therapeutic moisturizer in Germany used to treat the irritated skin of the patients who went under peeling, laser, or microdermabrasion.

There are several BB Cream brands such as HANSKIN,Skin79, Skinfood, BRTC, Missha, Dr Jart but all products have slight differences in properties, ingredients, smell, texture and oil control.
