CC cream, also known as Color Control cream, is an improved and refined blemish balm cream or Beauty Balm created and developed in Korea. [1][2] BB (Blemish Balm) cream was originally formulated in Germany and has in recent years gained a huge following in Asia and is quickly making its way to Europe and the USA for its skin-regenerating properties. [3] CC cream is now also widely used in Asia to provide natural-looking skin coverage. [4] While BB cream was manufactured primarily as a skincare product, CC cream was developed to retain all the skincare benefits of BB cream with added nourishing ingredients and the additional aim to provide more effective skin coverage. CC cream is the newest miracle beauty product available and was formulated with technology originating in industry-leader Japan and further developed in Korea. [5][6]

The benefits of CC cream is said to include high SPF rating to ensure protection from damaging UVA and UVB rays. [7] It also treats and covers uneven skin tones more effectively and blends with skin tone better than BB creams that sometimes appear too light on certain skin tones. [8] A lighter texture than that of BB cream also allows for smoother application with a less oily finish, while remaining extremely nourishing to the skin. [9][10] The end effect is said to be surprisingly natural and flawlessly radiant complexion than that of BB cream.[11][12]


New brands on the market aside others include Rachel K,[13][14] iFiona, and Tiannuo.[15][16][17] The CC cream was made popular by Rachel K and has been prized by Hong Kong's top makeup artists and Miss Universe beauty queens from around the world since it debuted in 2011.[18] In 2012 CHANEL is the first international brand to sign on and launched its own CC (Complete Correction) Cream on the Chinese market. [19] In the Fall of 2012 Olay was the first mass skincare brand to launch a CC Cream line in the United States. [20] However, rumor has it that Olay is selling their old product as a re-branded CC Cream[21][22]
