CC Creams are here to stay. They have been around for a year or so now, at least in the western markets. IT Cosmetics has created their version and I think it is brilliant. IT in the brand’s name stands for Innovative Technology, so of course they have brought their very best to the table. Their CC+ Cream is a Color Correcting Full Coverage Cream and it definitely performs up to it’s name. The shade I am showing in this post is Light.

I would first like to talk about the packaging. It is a nice tube container that has a push-down pump with a pointy nozzle. The tube itself has holographic details, and that appeals to the adolescent trapped inside me. Shiny and sparkly is awesome.
The ingredients are very interesting. The first two ingredients listed are water and snail secretion! YES, snail secretion. This product was actually made in Korea and it is a common practice to include snail secretion in their skincare products there. There is also an anti-aging hydrating serum included within this CC Cream as well as SPF 50. The SPF is a physical sunscreen and none a chemical one. The ingredients are supposed to improve skin texture, add brightness, and increase hydration into the skin.
The finish this CC Cream delivers is a dewy one. It has full coverage and is thicker than most CC Creams. It feels a lot like a full coverage BB Cream or foundation in all actuality. The color correction is amazing though. You can see in the picture below that all red, blue and yellow tones on my hand are completely converted into a single color and the freckle/age spot is almost completely concealed. When I use this CC Cream I don’t even need to add concealer. My skin looks brighter and glowy, as though I have my pregnancy glow back. The appearance of youth is definitely what this delivers all while actively helping to reverse the signs of aging.
I have combo/oily skin and I will admit that I get a little shiny with this product but I do tend to apply a heavy powder foundation on my t-zone and I am set for a regular 6-8 hour day. I do tend to touch up where I get oily but for the most part I have a flawless complexion all day long.
The shade I have is Light and it is actually for those with Light to Medium complexions. It has a neutral undertone and I feel like this shade will suit most people. There are 5 shades to chose from and the shade in Fair is very, very light. The Medium shade has a bit more yellow tones, and Tan and Rich are much too dark for myself.
IT Cosmetics CC+ Cream retails at $38 for 1.08 fl oz of product and you can find it at itcosmetics.com, qvc.com, and Ulta Beauty stores and ulta.com. It is a fabulous formula and I think that most will like it. From the reviews that I have read I have not seen one negative review yet. I think it will work best for those that have dryer skin or that show signs of aging. The hydration provided in this product is exceptional and I think that the colder weather approaching will allow even oily skin beauties to find this helpful for them!
