The difference between liquid foundation and bb cream

There is a big difference between liquid foundation and BB cream. You should know that liquid foundation is a liquid-like payment, while BB cream is powdered, so there is not much difference between BB cream and liquid foundation. Except for the difference in appearance and texture, the effect after makeup may also be different, but you should pay attention that it is important to choose cosmetics according to your own skin.

Let’s first talk about the difference between BB cream and liquid foundation.

BB cream is Blemish Balm

BB Cream is the abbreviation of Cream. It was originally a regenerating cream used to protect and repair damaged and injured skin after peeling or whitening (brightening). Therefore, it can provide timely and rapid improvement to skin problems and can improve and make up for skin shortcomings, hence the name BB cream. It is now very popular as a base makeup in makeup.

BB cream can cover blemishes, adjust skin tone, protect against the sun, and refine pores. It can create a delicate base makeup and can be said to be isolation + maintenance + foundation. However, in order to make the makeup last longer, you can apply liquid foundation or some loose powder to set the makeup.

In terms of efficacy, BB cream is lighter and less irritating, while liquid foundation has stronger concealing power. The difference in usage is that BB cream can be used directly after lotion and cream, while liquid foundation needs to be used after using primer or isolation.

If you have good skin or like nude makeup, BB cream is enough; if you want better whitening and blemish concealing, you can use liquid foundation appropriately.

The purpose of primer is to isolate the skin from makeup. It should be used after skin care and before makeup.

It generally has the function of modifying skin tone. Common colors include green (for reddish skin), purple (for yellowish skin), blue (for mature women with fair skin and dull skin), pink (suitable for fair skin and bloodless skin), and orange (healthy skin tone).

In terms of usage, after cleansing the skin - apply toner - lotion - cream (can be omitted) - BB cream or primer - foundation (if you are applying nude makeup, you don't need to use foundation) - honey powder or loose powder to set the makeup.

However, I would like to add one more point. Although BB cream is now widely advertised as being able to be used for both makeup and skin care, due to its ability to moisturize, it is actually burdensome to the skin. It is best not to believe that BB cream can be used as a night cream or directly after cleansing the face. It is best to apply lotion and cream before use, and remove makeup thoroughly every day. Because some BB creams are waterproof, it is best to use a makeup remover to cleanse your face.
