If you’re one of the many that see the double lettering on makeup and skincare packaging and think: I have no idea what these letters stand for, you’re not alone. With so many products on the market, who has the time to comb through them and determine the best? We do.

Your GR8 Guide to BB, CC, and DD Creams

Sometimes all we need is a little coverage and protection to feel confident, and who doesn’t want that? Here’s your quick guide on the differences between the three, and our go-to recs for everyone.

  • BB cream (beauty balm): Focuses on moisturizing, plumping, and improving the appearance of skin through antioxidants and full coverage tint.
  • CC cream (corrective cream): Lightweight and fast-absorbing, they focus on redness or acne-prone skin while offering oil-free blends.
  • DD cream (daily defense): Thick and optimal, they offer all the benefits of BB and CC creams with anti-aging preventive properties as well.

Everyone deserves to look and feel their best. No one ever said that face cream could save the world, but then again—has anyone said it couldn’t?
