Some things to look for when purchasing a BB Cream

When you think of a BB Cream you think that's for a woman right? Wrong!  Because there are many things that make up the BB Cream or Beauty Balm. It has a moisturizer, sunblock, serum, foundation and primer all in one. You can use it to hide blemishes, and as a sun block as well. There are different shades for different skin tones too.

Ok, here is the first and main thing to do when purchasing a BB Cream is get a sample and have it match up with your skin tone. You done want to get something lighter or darker that doesn't match the rest of your skin tone. The main purpose is to be matched with your skin tone and hide blemishes

Then secondly, get a small sample and test it on a small part of your skin to check for sensitivity, If you get something that you are extremely sensitive to, your skin will break out and then you will have other problems that you do not want. Also with this sample you can see how it covers any blemishes and matches to your skin tone as well.

Also you would want to read the whole label to see what all is in there to see if you are allergic to anything before you even put it on your skin for even the skin test. And if you are a first time user ask some one how to apply it and how much, because the last thing you want is to put on a lot and have it look like it is caked on and unnatural. So don't be afraid to ask for help. And just remember that men can use BB Cream too.

Look around and dry different samples of the different BB Creams from the different companies until you fine the one that suites you. And here is a link to the Best In Beauty 2015: BB Creams by my girlfriend Sarah. There you will find a list of the best BB Creams of 2015 to help you get started. 

Just remember that skincare is not just for women but it's for men as well. A good BB Cream is a great addition to have for your grooming needs as well as your skincare needs as well.  And that it is never too late to start taking care of it. Until next time, pay it forward and treat others how you would want to be treated. 

Looking forward to trying the ERA Ageless Set

I received this as a gift from my girlfriend and I am looking forward to trying it. ERA Ageless is a favorite of my girlfriend's. In fact, the brand is one of her Best in Beauty award winners for best eye cream (http://www.examiner.com/article/best-beauty-2015-eye-cream). ERA Ageless is a luxury skin care brand that uses only natural ingredients. What makes them unique is their use of unique ingredients. For instance; they use thermal mineral water which is natural rain water that makes its way through mountains at a depth of up to one thousand meters before resurfacing. Because of this, it's loaded with a lot of minerals that are good for the skin. ERA Ageless is also free of parabens, mineral oil, artificial colors, or any harsh detergents. They are also cruelty-free and don't harm animals when they test their products. I can't wait to try the ERA Starter Kit.
