BB Cream
This cream has become the centre of discussion in the recent times. But there are many people who have heard about this cream but exactly don’t know what the purpose of this cream is. The full name of this cream is Blemish Balm. As you can tell from the name that this cream is used to camouflage spots. BB creams were invented by a German dermatologist Christine Schrammek in 1950. She was always in search of a cream which will eliminate the redness and blemishes on her face while protecting her from the sun. It must also provide the much-needed moisture to the face. And this way, BB cream came into existence.

CC Cream
A cream which can provide the moisture as well as the protection to the skin. Such was the expectation from a beauty product, which led to the invention of CC cream. The benefits of CC cream are almost similar to that of BB cream. The only difference is that the CC cream is based on a lighter formula. Apart from this, CC cream provide more sun protection as compared to BB cream. This imparts an even look to the skin and blends easily on your skin. It also eliminates the blemishes on the face due to acne. A CC cream is packed with features like brightening, UV protection, even skin tone, etc. if the popularity has to be compared, CC cream is way ahead than BB cream.
