My new series What Exactly is and Why do I need it? #1 BB Cream

So I decided to start this new series because I hear a lot of people say What exactly is this and why do I need it for so many products. I wanted to share with you about the products that seem to be new and interesting and share with you what it does and why you should be using it.

So here goes my first installment. BB Creams. This new trend of a Korean product is taking the USA by storm and almost all the companies have jumped on board.

A BB Cream is a multitasker it helps with anti aging, blemishes, hydrating. It really makes your skin healthier and isn't that all we are looking for in a product.

I use Too Faced Beauty Balm in Vanilla Glow as a primer under my Smashbox CC Cream. It isn't too heavy and looks beautiful on my skin gives it a nice glow.

There are so many brands with BB Creams out, so it is hard for someone who doesn't use it to make a decision. I always say start with the cheaper brands since losing $5-$10 is nicer for your wallet then trying $40-$60. Another great way is if you live near a sephora they can make you samples, or a makeup counter.

You might use a foundation now, but with the makeup trends constantly changing this is a product you should check out.

Revlon's The Balm Sundays by the Siene and Legally Regal

I purchased these beauties right before I left for Las Vegas last week and wanted to share them with you all but got a bit sidetracked so here they are in all the glory of tinted balm. I picked the blue because I wanted to see what it would look like and the pink looked pretty. I pick colors a lot without ever looking at swatches, I guess I should check out colors more often. I like them both. I don't think they show up much on lips, they are more a sheer slightly tinted balm then anything else.

There are lots of great lip balms out there and I think this is in the top of them. It looks good, does your lips good and feels great on your lips.
