If using a brush, it is recommended to make light movements from the inside of the face to spread.

What are the pros and cons of using a BB/CC Cream?
BB Creme lightens the spots, closes the pores and prevents the formation of wrinkles and pimples. CC Creme has a lighter texture, high sun protection factor and better fixation on the skin than BB Creme.
But we must also take into account the type of skin to choose which product we should use. CC Creme and BB Creme can be a bit heavy for oily skin and there is also a risk that CC Creme may cause allergies in more sensitive skin. Sun protection is insufficient, especially for UVA radiation. Therefore, it is recommended to apply sunscreen before and replace the application every 2 hours.
