Drugstore makeup : BB Cream

What is BB cream ?
BB cream is getting more popular in the Asian and north America's make up market  lately. After the tinted moisturizer, it is either know as Beauty Balm Cream or Blemish Balm Cream.
BB Cream在最近掀起一陣熱潮,令到亞洲及北美各大化妝品牌亦陸續推出自家品牌的 BB Cream. BB Cream (又名 BB 霜) 其實為 Blemish Balm Cream 或 Beauty Balm Cream的縮寫

BB cream is a combination of moisturizer, primer , foundation and sometimes with SPF protection, it also help to smooth out the skin tone, cover some redness, help the dullness on the skin. So, this is another reason for this product getting more popular because it is so convenient and it is good for every lady no matter do they apply make up or not
近年的 BB Cream 經過不斷的改良後,已經加入了不同的保養成分,可以用作妝前隔離霜,粉底,遮瑕膏,又能自然修飾、美化肌膚。所以輕易成為化妝界的新寵!就算你沒有化妝的習慣,亦因為它有修復、保濕、保養、潤色、隔離這些功能,相信你亦會樂意去試它一試。

Since different makeup brand name have their own BB Cream, different ingredients, different brand have different price range.
不同的品牌,不同的保養成份,亦有不同價錢的選擇

In my opinion, North American BB creams are slightly different than the Asian one due to their different formula, Asian one can provide more coverage than the north American's one which have more light to sheer coverage, and the Asia's one can create a very good nude foundation
個人認為,大部份亞洲品牌的 BB Cream比北美洲遮瑕度高,如選用亞洲品牌的 BB Cream,已可以代替粉底並做出裸妝的效果。

Canadian BB Cream:

1)Wet n wild Fergie BB cream 8 in 1, shade light to medium, 5 shades available

2) Rimmel 9 in 1 skin perfecting super make up, shade medium , 3 shades available
9 in 1 results : primes,moisturizers conceals, covers, smoothes, mattifies, brightens and help protect, last all day (according to the manufacturer)
Coverage is light to medium, semi matte finish

3) Physician Formula Super BB cream, SPF 15, shade is light to medium, 2 shades available
Coverage is light to medium, not sure is the product that I bought....the cream that in the tube is not smooth not creamy at all,  no matter how long do I  shake them before use....it still feels the cream has something in it, personally I feel this product is not as good as the other products in the same brand
中度遮瑕,但不知是否我買的這個有問題,產品按出來,感覺很怪, cream 完全不滑溜,好像有粒狀在內。這個產品是同品牌之中較差的一個。
This brand are also have BB Cream concealer and BB Cream compact
此品牌更有同一系列的遮瑕膏及粉餅。
