BB Creams, CC Creams & DD Creams Explained by Dr Lycka & Dr Papantoniou

Two cosmetic dermatologists de-mystify popular multi-purpose skin creams

 

Edmonton, AB -- (SBWIRE) -- 05/25/2016 -- BB creams, CC creams & DD creams are increasingly popular multi-purpose facial skin creams. They are best described as a product created at the point where skin care and make-up meet. And they appear to provide time-saving & simplicity when it comes to daily skin care and makeup routines. It can, however, be rather overwhelming for a customer standing at a cosmetics counter, or browsing online, to work out what exactly these creams are, how they work and which are suitable for their specific skin needs. Finding accurate and impartial information about them is difficult.

This week (23May16) on Inside Cosmetic Surgery Today, show host Edmonton Cosmetic Dermatologist Dr Barry Lycka talks with Board Certified Cosmetic Dermatologist Dr Kally Papantoniou, from her practice in New York City. Both dermatologists are passionate about helping people to understand about their skin and how products can help or harm it.

In this in-depth interview, Dr Papantoniou begins by giving the full names for these creams: Beauty Balm cream, or Blemish Balm cream, Color Control cream or Color Correcting cream, and Daily Defense or Dynamic Do All cream. She explains what each cream is, and what it is used for. The two doctors discuss the 'ingredients' that go in each one, such as Liquorice, Arbutin, Mica, Zinc and Titanium. They also consider the addition of vitamins, the sunscreen element, and how the color tint is achieved, as well as the types of problems and skin type that each of the creams is most suited to. Finally, they highlight the benefits that patients can expect from regular use of these types of creams, and things to consider whilst choosing one.
