No longer an Asian secret (well, actually it was created by Germans) Blemish Balms (BB Creams) are taking the North American beauty scene by storm. One tube or bottle will act as a sunscreen, moisturizer, anti-inflammatory, anti-wrinkle, and, in some cases, a skin lightener. Although, this powerhouse product will do wonders for your skin, dermatologists like Dr. Anatoli Freiman of the Toronto Dermatology Centre strongly recommend that you use a sunscreen that offers broad-spectrum protection from UVA and UVB rays.
