What is CC Cream?
CC cream is a cream that stands for “Color Condition” or “Color Control. It has the effect of correcting skin tone and covering uneven coloring and dullness. It has more coverage than a makeup base and a more natural finish than a foundation. Since each manufacturer offers different products, specifications may vary slightly, but many items also have a skincare effect with sunscreen and beauty ingredients. The timing of use is immediately after preparing the skin with lotion and milky lotion.
What is the difference between “CC cream” and “BB cream”?
BB cream” is a cosmetic product that is often compared to CC cream, and BB cream stands for “Blemish Balm. Blemish means scar or ointment, and was originally developed as a balm to cover scars and peeling marks. Today, it is used as a makeup primer, foundation, and concealer, and is available from a variety of manufacturers. BB creams have high coverage and can hide acne scars and dark circles under the eyes, but too much coverage can make the face look unnatural. On the other hand, CC creams offer less coverage, but are attractive for their ability to correct skin tone and provide a natural finish. Both creams have different characteristics, so it is recommended that you choose the right one for your skin depending on your skin concerns, the areas you want to conceal, and how much you want to cover.

| BB cream | Want to hide blemishes, dark circles, and rough skin ・Want to make pores less noticeable |
There are three major reasons why CC cream is recommended for men’s makeup!
Reason why CC cream is recommended 1) “Natural finish makes men’s makeup less obvious!
CC creams correct skin tone but do not give the “applied look” of a foundation. If you are looking for a natural finish with a bare skin feel, this is the perfect product for you. It creates a translucent effect as if your skin is originally beautiful. It is therefore ideal for men who don’t want to be “noticed that they are wearing makeup.
Reason #2: “Even beginners are less likely to make mistakes!
CC cream is the first item that makeup beginners should try, as it has many functions such as sunscreen, primer, and foundation, making it easier and more manageable than applying various makeup items. The natural finish of the cream also prevents the “thick base makeup” that beginners tend to fall prey to. Another big advantage is that only one product is needed to complete makeup easily and in a short amount of time.
Reason #3 why CC Creams are recommended: “They even out skin tone!
Surprisingly, many of you may have noticed uneven skin tone or dullness when you look at your bare skin in the mirror. It is said to be caused by daily exposure to ultraviolet rays, friction from masks, and washing habits. Especially as we get older, such skin problems are more likely to appear, and in some cases they can make us look older. CC creams are also useful in solving such problems. In addition to even out the skin tone, it also raises the impression of cleanliness by improving the skin tone. Therefore, it is recommended not only for young men but also for men who are concerned about the signs of aging.
