WITH many people opting to stay at home as long as they can and wear masks while going out, wearing a full face of makeup everyday has become a thing of the past. A BB cream is a great alternative to a foundation, especially on days when you want lighter coverage, like now in smoldering hot summer. These lightweight products, which are a blend of skincare and makeup, give the skin airy coverage while also adding a dewy, healthy glow — without the heaviness of a traditional foundation. It’s pretty much an all-in-one complexion product, according to makeup artist Tara Lauren. “BB cream is a product that is often light coverage, more so sheer and often includes an element of skincare and or skin treatment,” she explains. “They commonly offer both hydration and sun protection. “BB creams can be applied using your hands or a brush,” Lauren shares. “Make sure to wash your hands prior and have clean fingertips. If you’re using your hands, gently press it into the skin. If you’re using a tool, I would recommend a duo fiber bristle or sponge.” (SD-Agencies) |
