BB, CC, DD, what? In the last few years, makeup products have started to sound more like the alphabet and less like, well, descriptions of what they are.

It's simply a matter of knowing what they stand for and what it all actually means. Once you get the hang of it, it really is as simple as the ABCs — we promise.
