WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A BB CREAM AND CC CREAM? | Nikol Johnson 

THANK YOU! I’m 75 and have been switching to cruelty free products. BUT...the foundations are all heavier! I can’t figure it out! One is like paint that needs thinner added! I mixed moisturizer with it but it just goes on streaky. I have 5 bottles of foundation I can’t wear! What I need is BB cream! Lol But I didn’t know the difference and just stayed away from them! I so wish your line was cruelty free, Nikol! But I learn a lot watching you!

oh my gosh, I kept wishing you would explain this. You make things clear and fun. Thank you.

Thanks for answering a question that I too had, Nikol!! Happy Monday!!

You are so good about listening to your audience! Thank you....

Thank you for explaining exactly what these are. My skin tends to be pink on the cheek area but I don’t want heavy coverage. You’ve given me something to think about. Great video!🌸🌺

This was so helpful, I was not clear on the difference in BB and CC creams, this was great. Thank you! ❤️

Thank you for explaining the difference between CC & BB creams but especially showing the CC creams. I had bought the it CC cream in light without being able to test it. I really dislike it because it is so heavy feeling on my skin and also very orangey on me also. I am like you that I don’t like the feeling of full coverage. I am 63 and grew up in Fla and did a lot of baking in the sun and I am paying for it now with lots of sun damaged skin. When the lockdown for the pandemic first started I started watching utube videos on skin and started my skin care journey to reverse some of my damage and also how to use makeup for older skin. So I have been really loving your videos geared towards older skin issues with makeup. So thank you again and keep the videos coming.

That was a great video. I was just in Ulta the other day trying to buy a CC cream. The nice lady talked me into a tinted moisturizer. It’s not enough coverage so I’m taking it back. I might try the Clinique one, though the It CC looked beautiful on you. I’m 71 so I definitely need the moisture. Thanks so much.

Thank you Nikol. This is why I love watching your channel. I learn so much. ❤👍

Nikol thanks so much for this video on the difference between BB and CC creams. I use both and love the coverage they give me. Love your channel!

It really makes your skin feel wonderful while you’re wearing it and after.

Thank you. This was a very clear explanation of the difference between a BB cream and a CC cream. And so helpful.

Just got the Clinique one this week and love it. I can’t even feel it, it’s so light. On you I noticed it’s the only one that doesn’t look like a mask.

Thank you thank you. Nikol! Needed to hear/see this

Thank you Nikol; as always great information and ideas!!! I appreciate your knowledge and advice. You look beautiful as always and I love your hair; I’m getting there slowly but surely ✌️💕

Thank you, I understand the differences in the creams now. Excellent!!

Thank you so much this helps alot I really appreciate your help and time 🙏🏻❤️

Heading to the beach this week and will pick up the Physician's Formula CC cream! Thx Nikol

Just received your BB cream in today! LOVE IT!!! Lightweight, natural look, and brightening. I don't like the feel of foundation on my face.

Great informative video! Love love the try ons! 💕💕💕

Nikol, you're gorgeous! Thanks for the wonderful videos.

Great video and explanation! You look really beautiful as always 🌹💖 hi from Canada 🇨🇦

Thanks I didn't know the difference and really appreciate you doing this for us.

Thank you so much for explaining the difference between CC cream and. BB cream. I have been very uncertain to get into being able to use makeup. I am m now more confident. You are so honest about store products. 😊

For most of my life I’ve been more of a mascara and lip gloss gal unless there was an occasion to glam up. I find that dealing with maturing skin issues has been somewhat overwhelming due to all of the product choices. I love you videos as they take that feeling of overwhelm away. Thank you so much for the info on the difference between BB & CC creams 🤗

Great so glad you answered the question

This was really helpful! Thank you.

I’m in my 60’sand use a cc cream as I also don’t like full coverage fountains. I have been thinking and wondering about the differences thanks for this video very informative

Great video. Can you do a video on which types of makeup to use with various lighting, e.g. cameras, HD, etc.?

Thank you Nikol, great information.

Hi Nikol I have ordered one or two of your products and RAVE about them. After a long process trying to not go crazy with skin care .. I lived in France for sometime and my mum's routine was vry much on point I used to do her makeup ... she was just a beautiful woman didn't need special skills!!! (I bought eye products from your on-line store) hoping this may help someone my skin care routine which is simple is as follows; ok 65 my Dad had olive skin; my skin is very fair but definitely that skin tone also combination skin. During Covid 19 yes I like to celebrate once in a while like you inspirational person that you are but I work from home so there are lots of no make up days and everyone will find their own way but after lots of different products trying to keep things simple: I use a foaming face wash Cerave could be one of them lots out there; if foundation this is sort of weird but works for me; Avene has what it advertises as a 3 in one whatever ... I love some of their products but it is frankly a balm lightly scented but doesn't stay on skin no ill-effects and it is fantastic for dislodging makeup eyes face and then do the double cleanse followed by moisturizer and the Neutrogena retinol which has never irritated skin. ******Here's where I am going to try your BB cream on those off days, will definitely visit store *** AM; I don;t wash my face. I splash water lightly pat use All Natural Advice Canadian product 20% vit C Hyarulonic Acid vit E available on Amazon probably lots of others; apply THE BEST sunscreen Vichy 50 ultralight goes on a perfect makeup primer matte but definitely the bomb. NO CAST broad spectrum and still moisturizing. We are all different but if this saves someone money or works for them, I've been through a spectrum and this is something I don't think about anymore .... I do once a week clay mask for exfoliating and that's it for face and moisturizer of course doesnt stop at face -- why I like Cerave peptides and h.acid when skin damp all good. Still looking for a good body scrub ... anyone out there with ideas? I LOVE This channel it has got me through the occasional doldrums during Covid 19 and Nikol, you are a gem!!!!! And our dogs would fall in love.

I’ve been using the Clinique Moisture Surge for several years. In fact, I’ve been using Clinique for 35+ years. Now that I’m a widow on a limited budget, I’m looking for less expensive makeup items.

Wonderful video. Most helpful!

Wow, Thank you❣ I finally know what to buy!

Thank you so much for a useful information. 😍🥰

I'm a new subscriber. I like you as a person and enjoy your tips for mature women.

Great explanation! Thanks 👍

Helpful video! Thank you.

Thank you for this information.

Thank you for answering this question for us and giving us good choices. Mine would be Physician's Formula or Clinique. The nice thing about Clinique if you make an in store purchase you can get help trying it on for feel.😊

Thank you! Finally, I got it!

Thank you Nikol!!!

Thank you for that!

thanks I will now know what to purchase..

Thank you - very helpful.

Good morning! I have just discovered your channel and I love it! I am 52 years old and have combination/oily skin. It is so difficult to find products for mature skin that aren’t too greasy for me. I’m still very prone to breakouts. Any suggestions for skin care as well as foundations? Thanks!

So helpful...tried Bare Minerals complexion rescue a few years ago. Loved the texture and idea of it but was disappointed as I was expecting more coverage from it than I was ever going to get,even with second application... And now I know why...as a BB it's just not formulated as a real foundation would be

thank you, I have been asking what the difference is for a long time.

Great suggestions.

Thank you for this video.

I absolutely love the CC cream from G.M. Collin. It does cover like a BB but has more moisturizer. They had just come out with this last year. I'm hooked.

Very informative 👍

Very good review. I learned alot, and now have a better idea about cc creams. They are not for me, and I will continue to use a bb cream. Once again you have provided us with an excellent review!

Also not impressed with the Bare Minerals one, despite it being recommended by other youTubers. Great reviews. Thank you

I’m 50. I have dry skin and nothing else. No issues. I use BB cream. 5 in 1 Garnier product. Hydrating and tinted. SPF too. Great product

Thank you. I never could understand the difference.

I'm 41 and use BB cream and I love it!! I wouldn't use foundation ever again just for big events!!I love my skin with the BB cream!!! Erborian is my FAVE!!!!❤

Thank you!!!

Just started watching, you look extra stunning today!!!!🎬🎬🎬🎬🕶🕶🕶🕶🕶

Thank you.

Thank you!

Hi. Hello. Howdy. Thank you for sharing. From TX.

Very helpful.

I agree with those saying very helpful. Q, Nikol: would you use a bb cream over the cc creams?

First time watching your videos, I’m 73 where do I purchase your products? Your mom looked fabulous after her makeup 😊

Thank you so much for sharing all your beauty tips. I just turned 47 and have been struggling with wrinkles. Do you have an suggestion for skincare that can help me? I am new to it all and usually just wash my face and go.

I finally know the difference…yay!

I would like to use a moderated cover foundation but my discolorations show through. Reapplying makes it full coverage

Good info

Live the it cc cream but I'm mixing it w my moisturizer to thin it out n goes on lighter

Thanks for your reviews! I’m not a fan of full coverage foundation

Thank you

Did you research Perbelle CC creme? If so, what were your thoughts? It goes on white and colour adjusts...

lindo progtama muiy completo buenas noches

Thank you SO much for such an informative video!... I learned a lot here!... much love and appreciation my little movie star!!!💜💜💜💜💜

Hi Nicole, thanks for the clarification. Unrelated, but do you shave your face? Can you speak fom experience to how much differences face shaving makes (if any) on how skin looks on a shaved mature face Vs peach fuzz mature face? I'm in my 40s, have developed a much fuzzier face in my 30s.

Since these are so moisturizing do I wear the cc and bb creams in place of my usual moisturizes?

Hi Nikol, I am 74 and was wondering if there is anything to help plump the lips without having fillers. As I have gotten older mine are very thin.

I didn’t know the difference. Thanks!

I’m not clear on whether to use a regular moisturizer under a BB cream. Would you please clarify for me. Thank you!

Have you ever reviewed Perbelle CC Cream?

I would like to know whst CC Cream yiu would recommend that us avsilable in Canada. O love what you show us but most of the products you endorse are not available in Canada. Not in our stores and no shipping to us available.

It cosmetics 👌💓

It Cosmetics maks a CC Cream. I tried and really wanted to like it, but it was cakey and horrible. I've tried so many and always go back to Physicians Formula as it doesn't settle in the fine lines and look cakey

Thank you for the info! very helpful! What about a DD cream?

Can’t find a place to submit my problem. I ordered your pink brush kit 10 days ago and I haven’t received it yet and there is no communication from the carrier. Could you have someone check on my order. Thank you and appreciate you.

Nickol why do they all look so shiny. Looks almost greasy 😢

Timestamp for CC Cream : 2:08

mahalo!

Love your videos; are your products cruelty free? Thank you!

Now I know!

Hi Nikol i wish you would sell your products here in Canada...I’m having a problem ordering am i doing something wrong..

I noticed you didn’t use any powder. Can we skip powder?

Cc is the best bb is a mask orange peach terrible in resume

Oh thank you. I heard so many contradictions. Blah

Hello Nikol, thank you. I live in Canada. I would love to have you do my makeup. I’m 67, so it’s hard to buy anything on line. You are lovely. I really enjoy watching you. 💐
