CC cream is a great choice for those with acne-prone skin, since you can choose a color formula that will cancel out the look of your blemishes or acne scars. Introducing new L'Oréal Paris C'est magic CC Cream, our ultra-lightweight CC Cream for an even, flawless looking complexion.

I notice a real difference when I use this as along with foundation compared to if I just use foundation. The balm itself applies nicely but it does cling to dry skin and my skin becomes oily within an hour. Since CC cream is a bit thicker than BB cream, you should use a makeup sponge or brush to apply it, building coverage as you see fit. I would recommend this for all skin types as it worked great on my oily/combo skin and didnt cling to any dry patches like other anti-redness creams have.For my cheeks, I used the NYX Professional Makeup California Beamin 'bronzer in number 3 "Sunset Vibes". I forgot to apply my eye primer (oops XD) and these eyeshadows are all from the Urban Decay Naked3 Palette. It neutralizes the appearance of imperfections by utilizing colors opposite each other on the color wheel (for example, green cancels out red). Foundation also comes in different forms, including liquid foundation, cream foundation and powder foundation and BB creams and CC creams don’t have such variety. The green hue is designed to counteract redness and even out the skin tone, making it suitable for individuals with redness or rosacea concerns.

If you want a bit more coverage or want to further conceal trouble spots like acne or hyperpigmentation, you can also add concealer or face powder. Enriched with Glycerin and Fig extracts, the texture is a light with long lasting hydration benefits of up to 24 hours. The CC Cream formula contains mineral pigments which green tone blend seamlessly to help correct the appearance of redness in the skin. This cream formula contains green toned mineral pigments which blend seamlessly into the skin and help to neutralise the appearance of redness.

I have included two pictures where you can see both the front and back of my used cotton pads and you can see how much CC Cream is still coming off my face and neck.
