I have been using this product for well over a year now and I can't believe I have hardly ever spoken about it! I've been loving It Cosmetics products and I'm so excited you can buy the brand in Boots now as it's much more accessible. This product is one of the most famous and hyped products from the brand, for all the right reasons.
Swatched: Fair and Light
The IT Cosmetics CC+ Cream is available in seven shades, I have the lightest two available. As this is a CC cream, it's going to replace your foundation but with some actual skincare benefits. It's a colour correcting, full coverage cream but is also an anti-ageing hydrating serum and has SPF 50. I have been a full coverage foundation girl for as long as I have remembered but this is one of those products that I will continue to repurchase.
I have the shades Fair and Light and while they look extremely different in the swatches, both shades do work well for me. Fair is the perfect winter shade and I can definitely get away with it at the moment with some bronzer but Light is a perfect shade match. The Light shade is essentially my exact skin tone and if you aren't sure what shade to go for then I always recommend the Temptalia Foundation Matrix. As I always buy my makeup online, this ensures that I get the correct shade and this has never failed me!
I can't say enough good things about this product and I have been using it every single day for the last couple of weeks. I prefer to apply this with a brush rather than sponge as I can achieve better coverage with this method. This is not only full coverage but it's also brightening and colour correcting as well which is really beneficial for my skin as I have a lot of redness and acne scarring. It covers all of my acne scarrings without having to layer on product so it never looks cakey on the skin. Even with it being so full coverage, it doesn't look like your wearing anything at all! It really is your skin but better.
It's very hydrating on the skin and even though I have slightly oily skin, I love that its hydrating as it's very comfortable throughout the wear. I would usually use a pore minimising primer before applying any base products but because this is I don't have too! It's very smoothing on the skin and my pores always appear reduced. It's extremely lightweight on the skin and because it does have a high SPF in it, it's my go-to summer base product. I love how long-lasting it is on the skin, I apply my makeup at 5:30 am and it lasts until I remove it!
