Universal BB cream for every skin tone and undertone
One of the biggest stumbling blocks when choosing a tinted day cream is doubt about the right shade. Too warm and you get an orange glow, too cool and your face looks gray. Add to that that your skin gets darker in summer, lighter again in winter, and somewhere in between in spring and autumn — then the search for one shade that works all year round is almost impossible.
The Classic shade of the Blemish Balm from Dr Schrammek's Regulating line solves this problem. As a neutral beige shade, Classic adapts to almost every skin tone and undertone without orange, pink, or grayish deviations. It is therefore the safest choice for those who are unsure, who do not know their undertone, or who want one tube that works all year round. At the same time, you benefit from the iconic nourishing formula that has been the basis for BB creams worldwide since 1967 — with zinc oxide, panthenol, and licorice root that calm redness, reduce inflammation, and actively help the skin recover.
Shade Classic
A neutral beige shade without a pronounced warm or cool undertone. Classic adapts to almost every skin tone and undertone, making it the most versatile color in the Blemish Balm collection. The shade provides fresh, natural coverage without shine or mask effect — your face looks even and healthy, not "made up." With changing skin tones through the seasons, Classic remains a constant match, while warmer or cooler shades would be a poor fit.

Active ingredients
Zinc Oxide: A mineral ingredient with a dual function. It has anti-inflammatory effects on active blemishes and simultaneously offers physical UV protection. Zinc oxide is especially suitable for skin that reacts sensitively to chemical sunscreens.
Titanium Dioxide: A second mineral filter that, together with zinc oxide, provides broad-spectrum UV protection. Titanium dioxide also contributes to the natural coverage of Classic — one layer is enough to camouflage blemishes and pigmentation spots without leaving a visible layer.
Licorice Root Extract (Liquorice Root): A natural ingredient with strong anti-inflammatory properties and a proven skin-evening effect. Licorice root reduces active redness and helps fade post-inflammatory pigmentation spots that often remain after pimples.
Panthenol (Provitamin B5): Attracts moisture, supports the repair of the skin barrier, and soothes irritated skin. For skin actively dealing with inflammation, panthenol is an essential ingredient to speed up regeneration.
Bisabolol: A soothing ingredient from chamomile that calms irritations and soothes the skin. Bisabolol enhances the effect of panthenol and licorice root and is a key reason why the Blemish Balm is so suitable after intensive treatments like a Green Peel®.
Allantoin & Shea Butter: Allantoin stimulates cell renewal and smooths the skin texture, while shea butter nourishes and keeps the skin supple. Together they form the nourishing base that sets the Blemish Balm apart from a regular foundation — your face gets not only coverage but also active care.

Frequently asked questions
How do I know if Classic is the right shade for me?
Classic is the safest choice for those in doubt. If you never quite know whether you have warm or cool undertones, or if you notice that both silver and yellow gold jewelry suit you well, then Classic is almost always a match. The shade naturally corrects small differences without a visible line on the jawline.
Does Classic work all year round, even if I get tanner in the summer?
Yes, that is exactly the strength of Classic. For a lighter winter tone, the balm provides a bit more coverage; for a summer tan, it blends more subtly. For very dark summer tones, Honey or Dark Brown may be a better fit, but for most seasonal changes, Classic is sufficient.
Can I mix Classic with another shade for a more personalized color?
Absolutely. The Blemish Balm is perfect for mixing — mix Classic with Light for a lighter version or with Honey for a warmer shade. You can even mix the balm with your regular day cream or sunscreen for lighter coverage.
Can I use the Blemish Balm after a Green Peel® or laser treatment?
Yes, this is actually one of the recommended uses. The combination of panthenol, bisabolol, and licorice root supports skin renewal and soothes sensitive, treated skin. The balm also covers any temporary redness typical after such a treatment.
Is the Blemish Balm comedogenic — can it clog my pores?
No, the Blemish Balm is specifically developed for blemished skin and is dermatologically tested not to clog pores. The mineral composition with zinc oxide even works antibacterial — the opposite of what clogs pores.
