It was a pleasure to attend the AJ Crimson BB+D Cream launch at the Shoreham Hotel in New York a few weeks ago. I myself found a BB cream that blended into my skin PERFECTLY (I use AJ Crimson #2 BB Cream!)

We’ve all seen the BB and CC commercials, which up until recently were only available in two shades: Light and Medium. You may even be lucky and find five shades, but none which women of color can actually wear to match their particular skintone.

AJ partnered up with Ofra Cosmetics for the development of this beauty balm that will moisturize, correct, protect, hydrate and cover blemishes. While most brands only offer a small range of shades, AJ went one step further and considered women globally:

“My goal is to bridge that gap!” says Crimson. “Women in the global community come in more than a couple shades and are left with limited options. By customizing the right shades and increasing the coverage, we made BB better!”

AJ Crimson’s BB+D Cream offers the following benefits:

• Lightweight
• Doubles as primer
• Natural looking
• Anti-Aging
• Flower extract treats bacteria and helps heal scars and acne
• Helps retain skin’s moisture
• Vitamin C
• Antioxidant agents
• Nourishing

This formula feels air-whipped and disappears into skin, leaving it looking flawless and feeling hydrated. Even those with the darkest skintone can finally enjoy even-toned skin.
