BB Beauty can refer to several things, depending on the context. Let's explore the different meanings:
1. BB Cream (Beauty Balm): A Skincare and Makeup Hybrid
This is the most common meaning of "BB Beauty." BB cream, short for "blemish balm" or "beauty balm," is a multi-purpose cosmetic product combining skincare benefits with light makeup coverage. [Source: Multiple references mention BB cream as beauty balm.]
- Key features: BB creams typically moisturize, protect (often with SPF), and even out skin tone. They provide light to medium coverage, creating a natural finish. [Source: Reddit, Dr. Jart, Andalou Naturals]
