CC or BB - What's the difference?

I know how hard it can be to find the perfect CC, BB or foundation.

So when I found the right one, I knew that I had to stock it.

 

I use these daily and on my clients, and I always am asked the same question - What is the difference between a CC Cream, BB Cream and Foundation? Don't worry, I've got you! and they are all in stock online now.

 

Here is everything you need to know. 

 

CC = Colour Correction - Naked Glow by Curtis Collection

This is your lightest coverage type.

 

Think of a natural dewy glow finish; the purpose of a CC is to blend out and even our skin tone and calm redness. 

 

 If you don't like wearing makeup or want a light, fresh look for the weekends? This is your hit; we all have one of these on standby. 

The extra bonus with this CC is that it's oil free and SPF 20.

 

BB - Beauty Balm - Naked Glow by Curtis Collection

THE NEXT LEVEL UP FOR COVERAGE. 

BB sits between CC and Foundation coverage.

 

This is a foundation with built-in primers and moisturisers. Oh and this one is an SPF 30. Hell yeh!!!! 

 

Your top 3 in one. An absolute go-to with buildable coverage and just dust over with a powder to set for all-day wear.

 

If spending precious time on applying and blending foundation is not your thang then this is your gal. 

Like I said, a step up from the CC and one step below and full coverage foundation.

 

Foundation - Matte Perfection by Curtis Collection

The. Next. Level!

This is your ultimate level of foundation and it's Oil-Free Mineral Makeup.

 

It's still easy to apply with a little more coverage but a dewy, glowing finish. 

 

I reach for this Oil-free Mineral Makeup anytime I am heading for a night out.

 

A little bonus is that a sample of this will come your way with any beauty purchase.

 

What do I personally use?

The light shades in the CC and BB both suit my skin tone, and in the Matte Perfection, I use the Tender Beige. You can always darken them up with your bronzer. It's so damn easy.

Quite surprisingly, I still get asked all the time about how do I clean my makeup brushes? I get it; it is easy to get overwhelmed by the number of contraptions on the market these days.
