The Skincare Benefits of Using BB Cream

Imagine combining skincare and makeup into one effortless product - with BB cream, NZ makeup enthusiasts can enjoy just that. BB cream is a multipurpose product that provides both coverage and skincare benefits, protecting your beautiful skin from the sun while you look your best. 

What Is BB Cream? Why NZ Makeup Users Choose This Comprehensive Cream

BB cream is a hybrid product that balances skincare and makeup. The ‘BB’ in ‘BB Cream’ stands for Blemish Balm or Beauty Balm. Skincare is extremely important if you want to keep your skin hydrated, youthful and lovely. BB cream provides you with the opportunity to simplify your routines, offering nourishment, sun protection and blemish coverage.

BB cream is similar to tinted moisturiser in that it offers coverage and skincare effects, but BB cream generally has more coverage than tinted moisturiser. So, BB cream is often chosen by NZ individuals who have blemishes that they’d like to cover up more thoroughly. BB cream coverage is also buildable, letting you choose the level of coverage you’d prefer. 

The Many Skincare And Makeup Benefits Of BB Cream

How can BB cream benefit your skin and appearance?

  • Skin Nourishment. BB cream is suitable for dry or dull complexions, as it can treat and nourish the skin. It’s a non-greasy solution that’s ideal for all-day wear. This cream gently exfoliates and revives dull skin over time, improving your appearance and your self-confidence. 

  • Sun Protection With SPF. With SPF, you can enjoy broad-spectrum protection against the sun’s UV rays. This is great for outdoorsy people who love spending time in the sun but who also want to look fabulous. 

  • Lightweight, Breathable Coverage. This coverage is breathable and light, so you can enhance your beauty and cover your skin without clogging your pores. It looks and feels natural, unlike heavier foundations that may feel cakey. 

  • Anti-Ageing And Skin Smoothing. BB cream can minimise the appearance of fine lines and pores for a more youthful look. This smoothing effect can make you look younger and make your skin appear evener. 

  • Radiant Satin Finish. BB cream has a lovely satin finish that mimics real skin, helping you avoid a cakey, unnatural makeup look. BB cream is perfect for makeup enthusiasts who prefer natural looks. 

  • Saving Time And Effort. Not everyone has time to put on a full face of makeup every day. BB cream offers NZ makeup users the effects of primer, foundation and moisturiser for a much simpler routine. This saves time and effort and is wonderful for those with busy schedules or Kiwis who simply prefer streamlined routines. 

  • Eco-Conscious Options. If you love animals and wish to stick to your values, then you’ll be thrilled to know that there are vegan, cruelty-free and wheat-free options.

Getting The Most Out Of Your BB Cream In NZ

How do you know if you’re optimising your BB cream? Here are a few ways that you can glow with your BB cream:

  • Choose The Right Shade. Choosing coloured makeup can be difficult because there are so many beautiful skin tones out there and so many hues of makeup to look through. Select a shade that goes well with your particular skin tone. Please note that the cream may have a yellowish tint at first, but it will reveal its true colour once it’s dry. For assistance, view the photo provided with this article to see how the different products look on different skin tones.

  • Use Proper Application Techniques. Put half a pump of the cream on the back of your hand and then put dots of the product on your face. Remember that a little goes a long way and that this cream is buildable, so you can start small and go from there. You can use a brush or your fingers to do this. 

  • Reapply For SPF Protection. It’s important to note that one application of BB cream may not be enough for a full day out in the sun, and you should reapply if needed. In general, it’s recommended to reapply your BB cream once every two hours or as much as you need.
