So funny story! I was supposed to post my fancy new Becca Champagne Collection Face Palette today, but when I went to make up my face I reached for all It Cosmetics products. I ended up highlighting with my new favorite You Sculpted Contour Palette. So that review will have to wait until next week because there was no way I was wiping away this magic only to start all over again. I guess the heart wants what it wants, eh?
About 2 months ago the wonderful people of It Cosmetics sent me this box full of goodies. I’ve been testing out the products since I received them. I’ve already reviewed the Superhero Mascara. Next up is the Your Skin But Better CC Cream. And let me tell you, the name is fitting!
This is a full coverage color correcting cream with anti-aging serum and SPF 50! It’s a little on the thick side, but not so thick that it doesn’t blend out easily. They say a little goes a long way and they’re so not kidding. The first few times I used it I got a little too carried away with the pump. Now I start off with like a half of a pump on the back of my hand and pump a bit more if needed. I applied this with my BeautyBlender and it applied beautifully! I was able to easily build up in areas where I needed more coverage. I did notice a subtle citrus scent, but it doesn’t linger. The coverage is pretty darn great and right up there with my go-to foundation.
I’m not a fan of BB or CC creams. Most look pretty cakey on my skin or just didn’t sit right. The It Cosmetics Your Skin But Better CC Cream is the real deal. The hype is real! Usually in the Summer I switch out my foundation with my favorite tinted moisturizer, but I’ll be switching to this CC Cream this Summer. It contains more SPF along with anti-aging serum and it has much better coverage. All while feeling like I’m not even wearing any makeup!
This wonderful CC Cream comes in 5 shades – Fair, Light, Medium, Tan and Rich. In the swatches shown here I am wearing the shade Light. I can post swatches of the other shades if you’d like to see them. Just let me know in the comments. You can see this CC Cream in action below. I’ve even posted a close-up this time.

I wish I liked the It CC cream, but it’s too moisturizing for me and my skin looks oily. Love the IT Bye Bye Redness cream and my newest love are their double ended gloss/lipsticks.

Oh bummer! It does say on the bottle to reapply after 2 hours so maybe it’s not meant to be long-lasting? I got quite a few hours of wear though. I haven’t tried their lipsticks! I’ll have to look into them! :)
I definitely plan on picking this up next week! It looks beautiful on you & I love that it has SPF 50 in it! xx

Awww thanks so much! I can’t wait to hear your thoughts on it!
I have never tried a CC cream, as most of them are too login coverage for my taste. But I do wear BB creams occasionally.

I hear you! This is the only CC cream I could actually get with. I’ve yet to find a BB cream I like though. Was thinking of trying the MAC BB cream. Can you recommend one?
I would like to try it. Great review :)

Thank you! :)
I’ve wanted to try the CC cream for a long while now but I’ve been afraid that it may be too dewy for me. Love, love the Bye Bye Redness though! Good stuff!

I’ve heard some mixed reviews about the Bye Bye Redness. It was on my wishlist though!
I received a deluxe size sample of this and I actually liked it. I use it only got days when I’m running errands and stuff like that and want to look half way decent. I usually don’t like CC’s at all so I was really surprised with this one!
Yes! That’s how I was too! And I think it’s perfect for just that. When you want to put together a quick look.
Good to hear it feels so light on the skin! I also hate it when face products feel heavy and cakey.

I haven’t tried much from IT Cosmetics but I’d love to try more! Their products sound amazing! :)

I’ve only recently been introduced to them, but so far I’m very impressed!
Hands down, this is one of my top 3 favourite foundations to use, it’s amazing and my skin looks perfect with it! And wow, I swoon at the sight of the box of goodies!

It’s pretty great! I love that it contains SPF 50 too! It will definitely come in handy this Summer!
The coverage looks really good yet your skin still looks very natural. Maybe I should try it! I’m a bit concerned about the thickness though. I don’t like thick foundations usually!

Oh I can’t make thick foundations work without looking cakey. But this was surpringly very easy to work with.
Not sure how it would work for me, but I’m glad it worked for you! :)

I’ve never tried CC creams. This one from IT cosmetics sounds awesome.
