Transparent BB cream without color pigments — pure care
Not everyone wants coverage. Men who want to benefit from the nourishing effect of the Blemish Balm without a visible layer of makeup, women who continue care in the evening after removing their foundation, and people with very fair skin for whom even the Light tint is too dark — for all these users, a suitable solution was long missing. The choice seemed to be between care with color, or no care and no color. There was no middle ground.
The Snow variant of the Blemish Balm from Dr Schrammek's Regulating line fills this gap in the market. Snow is completely transparent and contains no color pigments, but does contain the full nourishing effect of the original from 1967. Zinc oxide and titanium dioxide work anti-inflammatory and provide UV protection, panthenol and bisabolol soothe the skin, licorice root fades pigmentation spots, and allantoin stimulates cell renewal. The result is a versatile balm that you can use as a night treatment, as a base for men's skin, or for any skin that wants no color but does need active care.
Tint Snow
Snow is completely transparent and contains no color pigments. The balm absorbs without leaving any visible layer or tinted glow. This makes it the variant for those who want to benefit from the nourishing side of the Blemish Balm without wearing makeup — for example at night, for men, for oily skin that needs soothing but no extra coverage, or for very fair porcelain skin for which even Light is too dark.
Benefits
- Completely transparent without any tinting effect — pure care
- Ideal as a night treatment to help the skin recover overnight
- Suitable for men's skin that does not want a makeup effect
- Solution for very fair skin for which Light is too dark
- Contains the same anti-inflammatory and soothing effect as the tinted variants
- Free from parabens, dyes, and suitable for all skin types
Active ingredients
Zinc Oxide: In a transparent balm, the anti-inflammatory character of zinc oxide becomes even more important because the effect must come entirely from what the ingredient biologically does — not from what a covering layer visually hides. Zinc oxide soothes active blemishes and helps prevent new inflammations.
Titanium Dioxide: Provides physical UV protection, which is especially valuable in Snow because the balm is often used as the only day care — for example, by men who do not want to apply a separate sunscreen. The mineral UV protection works immediately upon application.
Licorice Root Extract (Liquorice Root): Lightens pigmentation spots and soothes redness. In the Snow variant, you can target this ingredient on specific spots — without having to worry about matching your skin tone. This makes Snow especially suitable for local spot treatment regardless of your skin tone.
Panthenol (Provitamin B5): Panthenol is a key ingredient for night care. During sleep, skin renewal processes are most active, and panthenol supports moisture balance and barrier function exactly when the skin is working on it.
Bisabolol: Soothes irritated skin and is especially valuable for men's skin after shaving. Applying Snow immediately after shaving soothes skin irritation and helps prevent ingrown hairs and small wounds.
Allantoin & Shea Butter: Allantoin stimulates cell renewal and smooths the skin texture. Shea butter nourishes and keeps the skin supple without leaving a greasy layer — a property that also makes Snow suitable for oily skin that needs care but no extra shine.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between Snow and a regular day cream?
Snow contains the nourishing effect of a day cream — soothing, moisturizing, supporting the skin barrier — and the anti-inflammatory, UV-protective effect of a Blemish Balm. Regular day creams usually lack the antibacterial zinc oxide and the targeted effect against pigmentation spots through licorice root.
Is Snow suitable for men?
Yes, Snow is especially suitable for men's skin. Men who don’t want tinted day care but still benefit from the soothing effect after shaving will find Snow an ideal solution. The balm soothes razor irritation, prevents ingrown hairs, and offers UV protection for skin that usually doesn’t get a separate sunscreen.
Can I combine Snow with a tinted Blemish Balm?
Absolutely. Some users mix Snow with Honey, Classic, Light, or Dark Brown to reduce coverage or lighten the tint. This also works as a budget-friendly way to make your tubes last longer.
Does Snow also work during the day without the tinted version underneath?
Yes, Snow works well as a standalone day care — especially for those who don’t need visual coverage. Keep in mind that Snow does not provide full sun protection; for intense sun exposure, we recommend a separate sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher.
Can I use Snow as a night mask?
Yes, this is one of the most appreciated uses. Apply a slightly thicker layer before going to sleep and let the balm absorb overnight. The skin then benefits for hours from the soothing, anti-inflammatory, and barrier-strengthening effects — an ideal aftercare for skin that has endured a lot during the day.
