This may sound a little bit silly but I really don't know... what's the difference between a BB and a CC cream??

A cc cream is a color corrector and a bb cream is a beauty balm

A cc cream helps even out your skin tone more than a bb cream will


A bb cream is a very light coverage cream and it normally feels very light weight and doesn't cover much :)

What Jessica L said

however another thing to consider is the bb cream I have the Maybelline one protects and does a lot of other stuff as in the picture

Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't a CC cream for more mature skin?

Another thing to consider is American BB cremes don't do half of what their Asian counter parts do. For example, here are some Asian BB cremes and what they do.

-Skin 79 Super Plus BB: Light weight, absorbs quickly, hydrating, healthy looking, SPF 25/PA++, whitening, wrinkle care, sebum control.

-Etude House Precious Mineral BB Cream: Luminous finish, pore coverage, healthy looking, SPF 30/PA++, wrinkle care.

-Missha Signature Real Complete BB Cream: Luxurious texture, fine and gentle texture that melts to your skin, great coverage, flawless skin complexion, SPF 25/PA ++, wrinkle care, brightening.

-Jelly BB creams (Skinfood Red Orange Jelly BB Cream or Holika Holika Aqua Petit Jelly BB cream: Jelly pudding like texture, moisture-rich revitalizing ingredients, smooth and fresh finish, ideal BB cream for warmer weather, SPF 20/PA++
