REVIEW: What's all this about B.B Cream?

"All at once. Moisture, protection and flawless perfection."

There has been a lot of hype surrounding "B.B Creams". Sorting through the archives and saw this rather interesting piece "Meet the future of foundation: BB Cream" in Stylist Magazine, and a blogpost sprang to mind!!

Garnier was first to launch, then EsteeLauder, Clinique, Dior and MAC have all launched their own versions and now Origins are launching theirs. But are they just jumping on the bandwagon here? Are any of them any different from each other?

The ‘beauty miracles’ boast a multitude of functions - protecting the skin from sun, while moisturising, nourishing and restoring, camouflaging imperfections and prevention of skin ageing. Originating from Asia, BB stands for Beauty Balm or Blemish Balm. It is a make-up bag staple for Korean girls because it promises natural-looking skin coverage.
