BB Cream, the Olympians of Makeup built for Fashion's Night Out and New York Fashion Week


If makeup were athletes, then BB Creams are Olympians.

First concocted to soothe and ease laser surgery, patients and doctors can't get over how effective and efficient these creams are, they calm the skin while hiding and healing, moisturize yet low on fat and oils while protecting the skin. 

Over time through constant and continuous use, BB Cream moderately improves texture.

But like the Olympic Games, not all BB Cream is created equal or good at everything all at once.

Like great athletes, each BB Cream specializes in a specific sport with specialized skills and traits.

For a more polished appearance to be camera-ready, studio-made Smashbox illuminates and radiates when you need that extra oomph for the lenses.   Out of  all the BB Creams, Smashbox spans the most skin tone range in 5 shades.


For the everyday look...at everyday prices, Maybelline BB Cream is the girl-next-door that gives a fresh, oil-free matte appearance without a whole lot of glitter and glitz.

What used to be restricted to the cosmetic aisle only, the cosmeceutical BB Cream has moved onto the skincare aisle, in-between the wrinkle cream and acne care.

L'Oreal Youth Code BB Cream Illuminator "soft focuses" existing lines while the extra oomph of the Youth Code moisturizing serum softens them.

If Maybelline BB Cream is the starting foundation then Smashbox BB Cream is in the top 5 finalist while L'Oreal Youth Code BB Cream is for the mature athlete who needs a little extra help.

Regardless, if you're starting, need prime time radiance, or saving grace, a little dab goes a long way, again easy on the wallet and a space-saver.
