I owned a sachet in Original colour which I have been using for the past 3 weeks. There were some refinements needed for my usual make-up routine while I was using this CC cream because unlike the usual BB cream, this shade is just too light for me! Still, I have to nod my head and say that this is an awesome product.
This product is waterproof and contains SPF35 PA++, with a slew of ingredients that are good for the skin. When I first saw the shade, I was quite surprised that its so light, akin to a beige colour. I do not have issues with the shades of most BB Creams I used, since I am fair-skinned by nature. But this shade seemed too light and is especially so, when a male colleague of mine commented that I probably put on too much powder. Another female colleague commented that I looked sick. Gosh! The least I want, is to get attention for my simple, no-frills make-up.
The texture is soft and creamy with a lovely scent. It glides on very smoothly but gives a contrast tone between my neck and face, after application. While I like that it brightens up the face, giving it a pinkish, radiant and natural glow, but the shade is just too light for my skin tone.
It stays matte throughout the day and remained so, at the end of my workday. The shade had sort of adjusted to my skin tone at the end of the day, which is my preference, as compared to the lighter shade during application.
Oil-control is excellent with minimal shine after 6 hours. However, I have a zit, after every 2 days of application which meant, I gained 2 zits from 5 days of usage. On the following 2 weeks, everything is back to normal, no zits and all.
It provides medium coverage and I like the flawless complexion and the long lasting matte look. I still looked fresh and radiant at the end of my work day. However, because of the colour, I changed my loose powder to a darker tone to combat the too light shade from the Mineral CC Cream. In addition, I also tried to pick up lesser loose powder than norm, to reduce the overly make-up look. Thats just me, but there are many ladies out there who prefer the thick powder look though.
The CC Cream is now available in three enhanced formulas : Original (for complexion with pink undertone), Neutral (for complexion with yellow undertone) and Sunkissed.
The retail price is $35 for 50g at Watsons stores.
