Bye Bye BB Cream… Hello CC Cream?!
Wed, 19 Sep 2012PRODUCT ALERT | SKIN
By Huda Heidi Kattan
While you may not exactly kiss your BB Cream Goodbye, you may very well want to say hello to yet another NEW beauty must, CC Cream! Personally, I LOVE the idea of a BB Cream! A cream that fights acne CHECK, give you sun protection CHECK, makes you look pretty CHECK (It’s basically you’re Tinted Moisturizer on steroids)! But one of the newest things to come out of Asia is CC Cream! CC Creams are basically supped up BB Creams (I love that they keep taking this forward, I can’t wait till we find one cream that makes you look pretty and lose weight)! It stands for Color Control and it works very much similar to BB Creams that brighten and even tone skin! So you would get all that acne-fighting-sun-protecting-tinted-moisturizer goodness, just with some added brightening and tightening. I am SUPER psyched, although no word of when they will hit the middle east! Chanel has already launched in Asia and Olay is launching this October in the US. Looks like I will be importing a fair share of CC Creams!
Would you want to try this or have you had enough of these alphabet creams? Anyone have a BB Cream you love?! My favorite is Maybelline’s BB Cream which I got in the states this summer!

My favorite BB cream is the Jasmine water one I bought from powdermary.com I mix it in everyday with their gold moisturiser and wherever I go I get compliments on how fresh I look, love it, love it love it!!!
mine is garnier from australia
I’m using the Garnier bb cream since the Maybelline one isn’t available here yet and i think it’s just about alright… I have quite apparent acne marks unfortunately so i do need to giv a touch of powder on top of it but nevertheless i think it’s a greattt invention! I’m waiting for the Maybelline to launch here so that i can try it as per your recommendation! =) btw LOVE ure blog!
I dont know, hardly anything can pull me away from my Garnier BB cream. I love it. Only maybe if Armani makes something similar.
Just got the BB cream after ur post.Ask one of a friend to bring from states(Maybelline) still on the way.whooo before i just try is there is another CC..hmmm
whats the best BB cream that you would recommend and can be found in the middle east – gulf countries specially.
thanks
Try the Clinique BB cream, its available in the middle east xx
I can’t wait, I love multi tasking creams like these. They’re simply awesome for busy moms.
Just started using this all natural cream/primer out of the UK, love it
http://www.ulta.com/ulta/browse/productDetail.jsp?skuId=2204525&productId=xlsImpprod1250420&navAction=push&navCount=1&categoryId=cat80020 it has licorice and caffeine in it (reduce redness on my pale skin and puffiness under eyes) seems similar to the bb creams. No spf, that breaks me out. Heard of this line? I love everything.
Thanks
never tried a BB cream, but i’d like to. and if i find a CC crean i will try it too.
thanks for the great tips.

Thanks for your great tips. I have heard about bb cream but not about cc cream. I think cc cream is the latest cream, so may be it will be better than bb cream.
lol they wont never stop!! Korean are very excellent!! I am using Missha BB Cream (korean brand), wich has SPF 40!! but a bit too pale for me, so i mixed it with my foundation!! thank you for sharing some infos!! i m in love with ur blog, go ahead! Frenchs loves you!!
I’m in love with smash box bb cream
Mine is Bella Aurora BB cream from Spain, bought it this summer. I wanted the Maybelline’s BB Cream but they told me that Bella Aurora is much better. Seriously I tired it and am so in love with it. Even my mother tried it and went to El Corte Ingles and got like 5 for herself. Worth a try
I would love to try this why not it’s just adding more benefits to my skin! But I would love it if we get a good share of color varieties. Hope they hit the west soon!
The best CC Cream ever is the Rachel K Cosmetics one !!! I love it !!! great coverage + SPF 35 ++ !!!
Sounds interesting!
Ive been searching for the Garnier BB cream! I havent been able to find it!!!

love the Boscia bb cream. I went to sephora and got loads of samples of diffferent BB creams ad love boscia’s the best my second choice would be Dior’s
