Review of Etude House CC cream

I am back with a new review on the product, Etude House CC cream! CC cream has been on the market for a while now and I finally got to try one of CC cream. I was so curious to know about what difference it has with BB cream.

My understanding of difference between CC cream and BB cream is that CC cream has more skincare elements than BB cream. Both of them are more like a tinted moisturiser.

I got this CC cream from this website called http://www.qoo10.hk few weeks ago. I paid HKD120 including shipping fee. It took more than a week to deliver to me. I thought it was pretty fast considering that this item was shipped from Korea.

Etude House CC(Care and Correct) Cream is available in 2 shades, 01 Silky and 02 Glow and I got mine in colour 01 Silky. It says on the package, this multitasking, 8-in-1 formula hydrates, primes, conceals, treats and protects skin at an easy single step for a healthier complexion, inside and outside.  It glides on with a silky smooth finish. Those 8 functions are anti aging ,stress relief, hydration, whitening, sun protection, tone-up, smooth texture, luminosity. Hmmmm, lets see if it really works as it claims. 

This is package of the product. It is just plain and simple package. 

I really like how it has pump. 

You can see those little beads. Don't freak out with the colour. I did when I pumped out the product!

When you massage into your skin, those capsules will be broken into and changed the colour from white to beige tone.  

This time on my face! You can see my all the pores and imperfections with closer look.

I just used my fingertips to massage into my skin. It certainly gives the glowing effect on my face but not much coverage. At least it covers my pores to compare to the previous pictures. 

I wanted to have more coverage on my face so I applied one of my foundations on top of the CC cream.

I didn't use any powder on top and as you can see it gives me nice glowing finish!

I have tried this product for nearly 2 weeks and overall I like this product. However, I don’t think it can replace my BB cream due to its coverage power. I use this product as a sunscreen since it has SPF30. I don’t think it really whitened my skin tone or diminish my wrinkles. It doesn’t really hydrate your skin but it does give you luminous finishing though. I can see some dry patch on my skin when I apply this product when I didn’t use my Clinique moisturiser. 

If you have dark skin, I wont recommend this product to use just alone since you can look ghostly with white face. It is just okay product, not like blow my mind. I think this can work the best as a primer since it seems cover my pores and fine lines when I apply my foundation. 

I will defiantly repurchase this product as my primer or wear it alone when I don't feel like wearing makeup as a suncream. It gives you little bit of coverage with glow, so if you want to look fresh not so dead looking, you can just use this alone. 

I hope you all have wonderful week and see you again with new post!
