I received a really well-formulated email with some make-up questions here and there, which was even attached in a pdf file! Wonderful :)

Now I thought I would answer this in a post, as surely more of you are wondering about the same things.

BB Cream
1. A BB Cream ”Blemish Balm Cream ”is something in between colored day cream and foundation, you could say. A liquid cream that gives a light opaque result, more coverage than colored day cream, but less than foundation. There are several products in one, and should replace moisturizer, primer, foundation and sun protection factor.

2. A BB Cream moisturizes and cares for the skin, and you can use it instead of day cream (I use my day cream below anyway because it is more adapted to my skin type). Depending on the brand, a BB Cream can also treat acne and pigment spots, and it can also have an anti-inflammatory and soothing effect on the skin, as well as an anti-aging effect. This is a good alternative for mature skin, but of course young people can also use this! Sun protection factor, moisture and such good ingredients are good for everyone's skin type, and if it contains anti age it is no problem either (all BB Creams do not contain it) it's just that anti age ingredients do not directly make a difference on a young skin .

3. BB Cream can e.g. be a good complement to foundation in the summer because it is a little lighter on the skin. Many people also like it because they do not need all the coverage that a foundation provides. And as I said, it is an all-in-one product that allows you to skip the other products and just have this in the bathroom cabinet, which of course is nice!

The other day I reviewed a BB Cream from Biodroga, I can recommend it! You will find the review here.

Mascara
4. I was a little extra happy with this email when you asked about my mascara in the picture. The mascara comes from the brand Paese and I will actually start selling it on creativemakeup.se! I do not know the exact date, the delivery should have arrived already, so I have to contact the supplier. But it's coming :)

I know exactly what "over-made-up feeling" you get from the mascara, because I can feel the same way when I have no other make-up than just mascara, then I would rather have a natural look. The mascara from Paese is cruel because it becomes easily natural if you apply a little while you get long separated lashes with a nice bend. And if you work more, you can also get a nice volume that is suitable for heavier eye makeup!

Another trick is to use a clean mascara brush instead of the one in the sleeve (washing and saving the brush from an old mascara works gallantly). Rub the sticky mascara brush against the clean brush so that it gets some mascara on it, and paint the lashes with it instead. Then you do not get so much mascara at once and the result is much more natural!

The mascara from Paese will cost SEK 159.

Hope you understood everything and feel that you got the answer to what you wanted :) Shout out otherwise!
