“Unfortunately, applying a daily moisturizer, cream or lotion to your face and hands won’t stop pollution coming into direct contact with your skin.”
BB Cream Use
Anti-aging components, including peptides and antioxidants such as vitamins A, E, and C.
Moisturizing workhorses like hyaluronic acid and glycerin.
Ingredients such as licorice and arbutin that help even out skin tone.

Foundation Use
Protective Barrier: Unfortunately, applying a daily moisturizer, cream or lotion to your face and hands won’t stop pollution coming into direct contact with your skin. So what you really need is something that forms a barrier over your skin, something that will give it that extra bit of protection.
Protection Against the sun: overexposure to ultraviolet, or UV light, can result in premature aging of the skin. So using kind of foundation that suits your skin it’s a good idea.
Help with Minor Flaws: Foundation is not designed to conceal major flaws in your skin. If you try to use it for this purpose, you are likely to apply too much and it will appear as though you are wearing a mask. So always better to use and choose what is best to your skin
Pigmentation problems: Foundations can help to give your skin a more uniform color and also brighten your complexion.
