How to Choose Your Base Makeup

Foundation has the highest amount of coverage between all these face products, but it can also feel heavy, especially if you’re just starting out with makeup. It may be the face product that most makeup artists tend to reach for, but you don’t necessarily need that amount of coverage on most days. In addition to that, concealer is typically used in targeted areas to cover specific issues. For example, concealer can be used under the eyes to cover dark circles, but it can also be used on small areas of the face that require full coverage, like on acne.

On the other hand, BB and CC creams usually have lighter coverage than foundations or concealers, but it also means that they’re much more lightweight, which is great for when you don’t want to feel cakey, but they also have enough coverage to cover most blemishes. CC cream stands for ‘colour-correcting’ or ‘complexion-correcting’ cream, and you can either use it on its own, or as a base to your foundation. As the name suggests, its formula is specifically designed to correct colour. In other words, it can cancel out any discoloration in your skin, like dark circles, dark blemishes, or red skin, and create an even colour throughout your skin.

Additionally, BB cream is short for ‘blemish balm’ or ‘beauty balm’ cream. It’s often credited as being a South Korean innovation, but it was actually invented in Germany in the 1960s by Dr Christine Schrammek, who wanted a face makeup product for her patients who had just received harsh skin treatments like peels or dermabrasions, or any kind of treatment that often leave the skin looking red and inflamed.

Although the BB cream wasn’t invented in South Korea, it was definitely perfected there. BB creams in this modern day are now even more moisturising and hydrating, and provide a sheer to medium coverage. Some BB creams have added sun protection too, so you won’t have to go through the full routine of applying moisturiser, then sun protection, then a foundation – BB creams are essentially three products in one!

BB creams are especially helpful to makeup beginners who want a face product that doesn’t feel heavy, and still leaves your skin looking like your skin – just better! It’s also great for those who want something easy to apply, as you don’t even need a beauty sponge or a brush to apply it. In fact, the warmth of your hands can melt down the product better, making it even easier to blend into your skin, resulting in a smoother application. The best part about it is that you don’t need to worry about having to wash your beauty sponge or brush afterwards!

The Best BB Cream for All Skin Tones

By now, we know how amazing BB creams can be – there’s literally no downside to it! But, we also know how difficult it can be to find a BB cream that suits your skin tone, as most k-beauty brands don’t usually cater to anybody with deeper skin tones. Which is why Heimish has released their line of Moringa Ceramide BB Cream with SPF 30 PA++ in six shades, which includes darker tones!

As a makeup product, it has enough coverage to cover up any redness and blemishes. It has a soft, creamy texture that leaves your skin with a light glow, and evens out skin tone to create a natural-looking complexion. Totally perfect for 2023 when cloud skin is all the rage. Perfect for the days when you’re running late and rushing, and just want something easy that can make your skin look even and healthy! For added coverage, simply apply another layer to completely cover blemishes. The Heimish Moringa Ceramide BB Cream with SPF 30 PA++ comes in six shades that have undertones that range from warm to cool, so it’s great for all skin tones, including darker skin tones! It’s completely lightweight, so you won’t feel like your skin can’t breathe or look really cakey.

The one solution to all your skin troubles, the new Moringa Ceramide BB cream by Heimish is going to be your new holy grail. Both a makeup product and skincare product all wrapped up in a convenient tube with a pump, it’s infused with Moringa fermented oil and eco-ceramide to help protect the skin barrier and deeply moisturise your skin, so it’s basically a tinted moisturiser. The moringa and ceramide both help to not only moisturise and hydrate the skin, but it also contains properties that can strengthen the skin barrier. This will definitely help your skin in the long run, as most skin issues like acne, dryness, and even prolonged wound healing are caused by a compromised skin barrier. Thus, the first step to having healthy skin is to heal your skin barrier, and what easier way to do that than the Heimish Moringa Ceramide BB cream that can make your skin look flawless both inside and out?

This BB cream has also been tested for low skin irritation, which means that it’s great for sensitive skin that tends to flare up easily, and even skin that has just recently undergone facial treatments like peels, dermabrasions, or even laser treatments. If you’re anything like us, and you tend to have red skin after a facial, this is the one product you need to cover your inflamed skin – without irritating it even more! The Heimish Moringa Ceramide BB cream has also been proven to be anti-darkening, which means that your healed acne won’t leave any dark spots. With SPF 30 PA++, you can leave your house in a jiffy without even having to apply an extra layer of sunscreen!
