Blemish Balm: Top Blemish Balm Creams To Look For

The popularity of blemish balm creams has skyrocketed since it was introduced in the beauty market. Korean celebrities trust its efficacy in improving their skin and this is the very reason why the appeal of this particular cream has doubled.

The following have been heralded as the best brands of blemish balm creams and have received competent number of high ratings and good reviews:


Missha M Perfect Cover BB Cream SPF42 PA++
It provides a good cover up for age spots, acne, dark circles under the eyes, sun spots and uneven skin patches such as those experienced by vitiligo sufferers. Compared to all other BB creams out there, this one provides the best coverage minus the heavy and cakey kind of look.

This product contains herbal extracts like mugwort and pumpkin—two ingredients not commonly used in the beauty industry but have been proven effective in improving skin condition.

Consumers say that this product did not cause them to break out and has even helped fade away pimple scars that were difficult to get rid of in the past. If you want heavier coverage for angry red cystic acne, combine it with your favorite concealer.


HANSKIN Premium Magic BB Cream SPF15
Many consumers have found this product extremely helpful judging from its almost perfect ratings. It primarily uses Grape seed oil which is a known ingredient in promoting better skin elasticity. This can help achieve a younger-looking skin for women suffering from wrinkles and fine lines.

The only problem I can see to this is the SPF. The Missha BB Cream provides a high SPF42 sun protection but this one only gives SP15. It may not be a sufficient sun protection if you are going to stay outdoors for a prolonged period of time.


SKIN79 The Prestige Beblesh Balm BB Cream Diamond Collection
Skin79 is widely popular in Korea and is the preferred choice of many Korean actresses. It mainly enhances the elasticity of your skin to prevent wrinkle formation. Although it does not say how much SPF it has, it can actually deflect UV A and B and give considerable sun protection.

It does not contain herbal and botanical extracts but rather uses ingredients that we will otherwise wear as jewelry. One of which is ruby powderized and included in this product. In addition to that, it also contains pearl, diamond and amethyst powders to help make your skin radiant-looking.


Sanghwang Essential BB Cream
This product uses the potency of oriental herbal ingredients. It makes a good choice for those who have very sensitive skin that reacts adversely to chemical-based ingredients. It contains Phellinus linteus mushroom extracts that can get rid of skin irritation and can promote a dewy kind of look to the dermis.

These are the blemish balm creams you should seriously consider adding to your skin care regimen. Choose wisely and you can really experience the benefits of this new and advanced cream.

Blemish Balm Cream: Is It Right For You?


Blemish balm cream is all the rage today. It has successfully unseated even the most popular moisturizers and foundations in the niche they are in today. And all that is with a good reason since this product really poses a cornucopia of benefits.

What Exactly is a Blemish Balm Cream?
Better known as BB cream, it was previously used as a soothing product by cosmetic surgeons and acclaimed dermatologists to help those patients who have undergone laser skin treatment for their skin to recuperate better.

You see, BB cream commonly includes beneficial and soothing ingredients that enhances the suppleness of the dermis and speeds up its recovery. This is the very reason why the interests of Korean celebrities were piqued. It has been widely used in Korea as of today and numerous brands of BB creams have sprouted persistently.

It acts as a moisturizer, a concealer, liquid foundation, and a make-up base. What is great about this product is that it looks natural. It is without a cakey kind of look that most foundations usually give. In fact, in most BB cream reviews and accountings, people say that it looks like a second skin.

Is It Good For Pimple Prone People?

Being a cream, one might suspect it to be a little bit heavy on the skin. You will be pleased to know that there are a lot of people prone to acne and pimples who have seen vast improvements after including this cream in their skin regimen.

But that actually depends on what you are using. Despite the hype that surrounds this cream and the benefits that was purported to give, it still depends on the brand you are using. There are particular brands that contain anti-pimple and anti-blemish ingredients that can also help control the production of oil. There are some that fail to deliver.

It is crucial to sift through the choices. When you are looking for your own BB cream, make sure that you read reviews first and find out if it provides good coverage that looks all natural, contains natural ingredients and one that will not cause you to break out.

There are beauty companies that offer their BB creams in small 5ml jars for trial. Take advantage of this first before buying the bigger 50ml bottles so you can do a skin test first and determine if it is the right cream for you.

And remember that it should not replace your day or night moisturizer completely. The benefits of a moisturizer are different from this cosmetic cream so you might want to use it during the day only and use a separate moisturizer at night.

Blemish balm cream do have a lot of things to offer us. This one is something you should not pass up if you want to achieve creamy and younger-looking complexion.

Top 5 Anti-wrinkle Creams Now Revealed!

The beauty market is saturated with anti-wrinkle creams with bottles of every shape and sizes. Infomercials and television commercials always urge us to choose only the best one for us? But what exactly is the best?

Despite the cornucopia of beauty creams, we consumers really do not have an inkling of what is the best. In fact, labeling any anti-wrinkle cream with superlatives may not be accurate as some of them tend to work only at a certain point. Needless to say, we want something that will work now and will continue to work for as long as we are using the product.

This is exactly the kind of product we searched in the market. Luckily, most consumers are more than willing to share their stories about their use of a certain brand. We picked the following 5 anti-wrinkle creams because they have shown more muscle in getting rid of those ugly and unwanted facial lines:

Aveeno Active Naturals Positively Radiant Cream

The claim is that it can reduce fine lines in such a little time to enhance your skin’s complexion and health. It uses soy complex coupled with Vitamin B5 and E to facilitate the healthy renewal of your skin cells.

Soy is a remarkable ingredient because it has the potency in moisturizing our dermis in a healthier way. It does not clog our pores and it is not too heavy on the skin. If you want a more natural way in looking younger, try this ideal brand.


Eucerin Sensitive Facial Skin Q10 Anti-Wrinkle Sensitive Skin Crème

This product boasts of a potent ingredient in the form of CoEnzyme Q10. CoQ10 is a naturally occurring substance in our body that can help get rid of harmful free enzymes. These harmful free enzymes speed up our aging process and causes dull-looking skin.

Eucerin boasts of a fast moisturizing process that can plump our skin and reduce visible signs of skin aging in just 5 weeks. In addition to CoQ10, it also works together with Vitamin E and Beta Carotene for better potency.


Lancome High Resolution Intensive Recovery Cream

Lancome is a good brand, albeit an expensive one. However, if you want a cream that can really work over time in enhancing your dermis, try this one. Its primary ingredient is FIBRELASTINETM, an ingredient that can effectively speed up the regrowth of Elastin in your body.

Lancome has also done their own research and has found out that 72% of women experience remarkable results. Some of them experienced astounding elastin regrowth in as early as 48 hours.



Neutrogena Healthy Skin Cream Original Formula

Neutrogena is one of those brands who trust the efficacy of Retinol. Come to think of it, Retinol has become quite an overused ingredient in the anti-wrinkle products market. Neutrogena has given it their own individual touch by teaming retinol up with other vitamins such as Pro-Vitamin B5 and vitamin E.

What many consumers love about this product is its non-greasy and smell-free formula that makes it just purely divine to use.



RoC Anti-Wrinkle Treatment for All Skin Types

This product uses the efficacy of AHA and Retinol. AHA has been deemed as the most powerful antioxidant because of its ability to work well in both oil and water. It can even revive worn-out antioxidants to produce better antioxidative benefits.

RoC claims that their product can provide results in just 8 weeks. And because it is non comedogenic and it is light on the skin, numerous people are sold.



The plethora of anti-wrinkle creams maybe a boon to us but until we find the right one, we cannot really fully experience benefits from these genius of beauty products offered before us. Try any of these products and see for yourself the results it can manifest on your skin.

Prevent Wrinkles 101: The Effective Remedies That Can Prevent Wrinkles


Prevent wrinkles—this seems like the primary goal of numerous women, beauty conscious or not. Seriously, who would want to see wrinkles populating their face? Almost all of us are relentlessly searching for the proverbial fountain of youth.

I don’t know of any fountain of youth but I certainly know some tricks that can prevent those unwanted lines from forming and prolong a younger-looking you for long, long years. And, oh, did I mention these tricks won’t bust the bank?

 

Sun Protection

The first thing you need to do is to stay safely protected from the sun. You do not have to sacrifice life outdoors. Just do it in moderation. If there is no way of avoiding sun from 10am to 4pm, then apply sunscreen.

Sunscreens are our first line of defense against the sun. The higher the SPF, the better sun protection you have.

If you want to stay under the sun for 15 minutes at a time, a lotion or a sunscreen with SPF 10 or 15 is adequate. If you plan to bask under some UV rays for longer than that, opt for something stronger—SPF 30 and above.

Natural Moisturizer

The next thing you should consider is to pick a good moisturizer that you can use in the morning and before you go to sleep. One that contains potent but still natural youth-preserving ingredients should be employed.

Try searching for one that contains Phytessence Wakame. Japanese people love this sea kelp and include this in some of their local dishes such as sushi. It actually contains components that can preserve our hyaluronic acid that in turn preserves our youthful physical appearance.

There are significant studies that connect a low hyaluronic acid with aging. Which is why it is imperative to protect it from harmful enzymes that may break it down as we get older.

Another thing you need to look for is Royal Jelly. This is a natural ingredient produced by bees. Some studies have discovered the potential of royal jelly in improving our skin and one that can prevent wrinkles. This is because it contains numerous vitamins and minerals that promote our youthful well-being. You can also take this as a supplement for an internal protection.

Getting Enough Zzzss…

Don’t you love how your skin looks right after waking up from 8 hours of sleep? It definitely looks refreshed, dewy and supple. Instead of going out every Saturday or Friday night for a night-out full of drinking and partying, allot some time of the month for having some “me-time”.

Use the time to pamper your dermis and get some much needed shut-eye. Cat naps are also powerful ways to freshen up. If you drink coffee right before taking a 20-minute nap, it can wake you up much more effectively than just nap or just coffee. Plus, coffee is loaded with antioxidants—a natural harmful free enzyme buster.

These tips are no news. But if you really want to prevent wrinkles, following them faithfully and religiously should help you achieve a younger-looking you for a very long time.
