Reporter Turned Mommy

Have you ever heard of BB Cream? I just heard of it for the first time a few days ago. The TODAY SHOW  contributor Jenn Falik did a beauty segment on this new skin cream that is supposed to be the new “it” item! Check out this segment here.  I googled it today and here’s what I found…

There are MANY different brands. Above are the BB Cream brands that Sephora offers. According to the Sephora website…BB Cream is

“…..short for “blemish balm” or “beauty balm”—is truly an all-in-one skincare wonder. Their lightweight, multitasking formulas provide SPF sunscreen protection and work to moisturize, conceal, and treat skin in just one simple step. The silky, tinted lotions effortlessly blend with your natural tone, minimize the need for concealer and foundation, camouflage lines and imperfections, and serve as a skin-perfecting primer. With just one swipe, skin is left looking smooth, glowing, and natural. “

BRTCSTORE.com also claims they are the “official” BB cream site and that the trend came from Asia.

I’m intrigued. I hate wearing makeup if I’m spending the day on the beach or just running to the grocery store or gym, but I also like a little coverage and BB cream may be the answer.

Before I pick a brand to try, I want to hear if any of you have tried BB cream and if so, what kind do you like? Can’t wait to hear if you’ve heard of this “new” trend!
