Common Questions Answered:

Is IT Cosmetics CC Cream Mineral Makeup?

Yes, it’s a physical mineral sunscreen.

Is IT Cosmetics CC Cream Good For Sensitive Skin?

Yes, this full coverage foundation is good for sensitive skin, oily skin, and combination skin. No one is left out!

Does IT Cosmetics cc cream have parabens?

No, it’s paraben free!

Is IT Cosmetics cc cream vegan?

No, there is an ingredient called snail secretion filtrate, which is used for hydration purposes.

Colour/ Shade

I switch between two shades depending on the season, below I’m wearing shade Fair. The most important thing to consider when it comes to choosing your shade is the undertone, make sure it matches yours so the coverage doesn’t look orange.

  1. Fair (W)—ultra porcelain skin, fairest of fair skin, with warm (yellow) undertone
  2. Fair Light (c)—fair skin, if you burn easily in the sun, with cool (pink) undertone

Texture

The texture is thick and creamy, doesn’t run and stays in place. It’s quite glossy looking and smooth so say goodbye to uneven skin tone.

IT Cosmetics Your Skin But Better CC Cream With SPF Review

This is a full coverage foundation with SPF, while being full coverage the formula is still lightweight and hydrating illuminating the skin while giving you that even texture that makes us all feel so good.

I can honestly say this product and formula is the best I’ve ever used, and I’ve tried a lot. My skin is always glowing and utterly flawless after applying the CC cream. I will say it’s more of a foundation than a CC cream, it’s light but also full coverage and acts as a foundation. I do like the SPF factor so there’s no need to apply an additional facial SPF.

The texture is really velvety and smooth and the citrus oil means it smells really nice, like a little burst of Vitamin C every time you use it.

The only downside is the price, but in all fairness for the quality and longevity of the product its worth it. For me a bottle lasts months and months. Foundation is one of those things that really creates the base and overall look of your makeup, so you want to have a product that works. I budget in other areas like mascara to make up for this.

Key product features:

Delivers 7 products, all in one!

  • Full-coverage foundation
  • SPF 50+ UVA/UVB broad-spectrum physical sunscreen
  • Brightening color corrector
  • Hydrating anti-aging serum
  • Poreless finish primer
  • Dark spot concealer
  • Moisturizing day cream

Tips for best application

  • Apply to dry, moisturized skin otherwise the formula’s texture gets runny if mixed with another product
  • Apply only 2 pumps otherwise it’s too much product, trust me!
  • Use a proper foundation brush to apply the product, the basics

Is IT Cosmetics CC Cream Worth It?

In summary, yes the IT Cosmetics CC cream is worth it. It’s worth the price and it’s worth figuring out how to use if you’re someone who, like me, takes a bit of time to really figure out how to properly apply a full coverage foundation so that it’s not too much. Out of every product in my makeup bag this CC cream is the one I invest in, and will do so in the coming years!

    I used vichy dermablend to cover dark spots and found it very difficult to find a replacement that offered the same coverage as well as being suitable for super sensitive skin. I tried il makiage, Charlotte Tilbury however found both of these settled in creases. I chanced upon IT CC cream and still use it to this day as it offers the best coverage as well as an array of skin benefits for mature skin,

      Oh no! Yes if you have a high sensitivity to smell the orange sent could be too much, especially since it’s around your nose. Hopefully you find something better suited for you.
