Beauty balms, CC creams, BB creams...I am so confused. I want something that is not going to come off in the middle of the day and is going to look the same at 5pm as it did at 7AM when I first applied. Someone please help me understand what all these creams are for.

I'm not using creams at all, just calendula cream and rosemary oil for acnee, and lip balm. But I watch a lot some beauty gurus of the Internet[Bubzbeauty and Michelle Phan] and from what they say it results that BBcreams are the best. But those BBcreams are from different trades, so only the good and the original ones are going to make ''wonders''.
BBcream it's a foundation cream used very much by the Korean actresses and by a lot of Asian stars. That's how they can make that effect of the perfect face. It is known that the Korean BBcream it's the best because it's said that they have the original formula of the cream :). Also you should stay away of the Garnier's BBcreams, because many many people showed on the internet that's nothing more than lots of chemicals and it's texture it's like colored water, so it's a fail, also it will give you pimples from the first day or after using it some days :(.
Bye! Have a good day!

you just try one cup of cream each day and not all and it will be really annoying and confusion at the end of the day

These started out from Asia... the US and European companies wanted to ride on the backtails of the increasing popularity of the Asian ones, and tried to... not even copy them, but sell stuff called BB creams (actually, Beauty Balm and BB Cream mean the same, or should mean the same), and tried to kind of recreate whatthe originals can do.
The original Asian ones are an extra light coverage foundation, which act as moisturizer, luminizer and concealer in one, too. From what I've seen people write about the US and European ones, they just seem a tinted moisturizer. So, Asian ones are better, they could be ordered from the net.
The CC cream is just milking the money cow, in my opinion. Nothing too musthave or life.changing.
