Assalamualaikum and hi, everyone! 🌸

Wow, there's something different here! Guess what? This is my first-time blog at night because I always blog either in the morning or evening. But, no matter it's night or day, I still keep this blog updated. So tonight, I'm going to share with you the differences between foundation, BB cream, and CC cream. Before that, I would like to tell you that I'm neither a beauty consultant nor a makeup artist but as everyone knows, I love to do some research before I share with all people. Yes, I did some research that related to the topic tonight. As a lifestyle blogger, of course, I will share everything that related to my interest including beauty. Everyone can blog or share about anything they want as long as those things are true. (actually, I will post about lifestyle blogger in the next post, stay tuned!) Argh, I always write a lot in the introducing part! Alright, let's focus on our topic tonight.

Some of the people asked me the differences between three of them because they confused what to choose that really suitable for their purpose either more to makeup or skincare. Based on my research and after concluded them, I found 6 main aspects that we really need to focus on three of them. Also, I will recommend you three drugstore products from Watson Malaysia under three of them that really good for you. I'm not choosing high-end products because I never buy them yet (I wish I can buy them one day). I just make it simple as I can so that you can more understand. So, here we go!

It covers all imperfections like eye circles, pimples, uneven skin tone and so on.

It rarely has high SPF but more to how long it stays or last.

It suitable for all skin type.

RECOMMENDED

BB Cream is Blemish Balm. It more to skincare benefits like sun protecting, anti-aging and others and it has a little bit of combination with a foundation to cover some imperfections on your face.

COVERAGE

Medium coverage.

SPF

It has a high SPF from 15 until 50.

Mostly it has 3 shades which are light, medium and dark or ivory and others. Easy for you to choose.

SKIN TYPE

It is the most suitable for those who have normal to dry skin type. 

RECOMMENDED

IN2IT BB Bright 5 in 1 Make-Up Cream SPF 50 (RM22.90). I'm using this BB Cream for my daily makeup and I choose Ivory for the shade because that shade is suitable for my skin tone.

3)

CC Cream is Color Corrector. It will correct the skin's redness, dullness, and sallowness.

FINISHING

It will be lighter on our skin.

SKIN TYPE

It is the most suitable for those who have oily and acne - prone skin type.

RECOMMENDED

Maybelline White Super Fresh CC Cream (RM21.80). I used this CC Cream last year before I started to use BB Cream.

That's all. I hope this post will help you to know what are the differences between three of them so that you can choose the best one to apply on your face based on your purpose as I mentioned earlier. It depends on your choice because everyone knows better about own skin type and choices than others. As for me, I'm using BB Cream because I don't know my correct shade for foundation and its benefits really fulfill my purpose. Make sure you read or watch the reviews of products before buying them.

Thanks for reading this post and have a nice day! 😊

Lots of love,
