Okay but like, why is no one talking about BB creams? They’re basically the skincare-squad MVPs—hydrating, SPF-packed, and so good at hiding your pores that you’ll forget you’re wearing anything. CC creams are the slightly more intense cousin, focusing on tone correction and coverage, but both are basically the shortcut to lit-from-within skin. And trust us, your makeup bag just got a major upgrade.
The IT Cosmetics Your Skin But Better CC+ Cream is the OG flex. It’s got SPF 50, hyaluronic acid, and snail mucin—like a spa day in a jar. Makeup artists swear by it because it smooths redness, blurs pores, and never feels heavy. Lexi Herrick, a senior director, calls it her “skin but better” hero, and we’re here for it. If you’re into the “no-makeup” look but still want coverage, this is your sign to skip the foundation.
Kosas’ BB Burst Tinted Gel Cream is the lightweight dream. With 24 shades, it’s way more inclusive than most BB creams. The formula feels like a hydrating serum, with copper peptides to boost elasticity and zinc to calm redness. Makeup artist Alexa Persicos uses it on clients who want something breathable and barely-there. Shanna Shipin, a senior commerce director, says it’s so light she questions if she applied it at all—until she sees the glow.
Cle Cosmetics’ CCC Cream is the ultimate hybrid. It’s like a BB cream with a CC cream’s color-correcting powers. The microcapsulated pigments build up for medium coverage, and the SPF 50 keeps you protected. Nicola Dall’Asen, a senior news editor, has used it for five years and swears by its zero-effort application. It’s like a skincare product that also works as a base—no creasing, no cakeing, just a glowing, even finish.
💫 They’re hydrating, SPF-packed, and way more versatile than your average foundation.
The key takeaway? BB and CC creams are your new go-to for effortless, radiant skin. They’re hydrating, SPF-packed, and way more versatile than your average foundation. Whether you’re into the “skin but better” vibe or need a quick fix for redness, these creams are your cheat code.
