Be stands for beauty balm or blemish balm
It's originally from Asia I think
It's like a tinted moisturizer but with beauty benefits
It's lighter coverage than foundation but more coverage then a tinted moisturizer

Like others said, Beauty Balm or Blemish Balm. I found this wonderful definition on Marie Claire that tells it's benefits, "BB creams can smooth the skin, contain anti-aging elements, even out your skin tone, moisturize, protect against sun damage, and have a light-reflecting component that give your skin a dewy, luminous look!" CC Cream is Complexion Correcting cream. The Marie Claire definition describes it as follows, "Lighter than a BB cream, CC cream's primary purpose is to correct color-related skin issues, such as sallowness or redness. Like BB cream, it has SPF as well (number varies by brand)." Hope this helped 💞

Usually beauty balm. It moisturizes, reduces redness, evens out skin tone, and usually gives skin that extra glow. some bb creams contain SPF or have thicker coverage, so sometimes instead of foundation I use it if I find my skin is getting dry or breaking out. otherwise it's great under foundation or by itself (:
