This product works well when you dont want to use foundation on a daily use. It's perfect when you looking for that clear fresh look but not in the mood for foundation. The addition of SPF was a great idea. Love this stuff.
I received the cream in "Sable" from Beauty Bulletin! :) Thanks BB! I was really excited to try this, as there are not a lot of CC creams on the market that are made for women of colour. So I was anxious to know how this would be on me!
Lets commend it first by saying, it has an SPF of 50! As someone who loves to take care of my skin, I take such things very seriously, so I was impressed with that! However, I found the formula of the product to be a little too watery "runny", and found it took some time to see the results in supposed to be seeing on my skin. Because it was too watery, that made proper coverage slightly a tough task too.
It has a light feel on the skin, it almost feels like you're applying your daily moisturizer. This made it not too heavy on the skin, which was good, i liked that! It does give off a healthy "glow" to the skin. This is especially important in the warm summer months!
I think with time, I'll be able to see the difference in terms of whether it corrects pigmentation on my skin, but for now, I'm slightly on the fence regarding this product... only time will tell.
I am an Avon rep and i have been using avon cc cream caramel for the past 8 months, it is so light and has brought a glow on my skin and perfectly hides and improves my skin imperfections.
My morning routine has always been wash, tone, moisturize, conceal and last but not least foundation. Yes a 5 lllloooooonnnnngggg step routine in the morning. I have always used concealer to conceal my marks from acne. At the end it's plain and simple blemish scarring. Firstly I hat wearing/using up all my expensive foundations to work - prefer to wear my foundation when going out. So I opted for a BB cream, which was lighter and way less expensive. Then I received my free sample of Avon CC cream... Well I was skeptical at first - having scarring for years and tried and tested everything on the market makes, WELL a skeptic.
Well I gave it a try, after seeing results on a friend of mine. She had/has pregnancy acne scarring. Gosh hers is finally disappearing after 6 years. I have honestly used the CC cream from over 2 weeks(recommended period) and still upto today am seeing results. My marks are fading, my skin tone looks much even and funny enough my skin looks and feels softer and smoother(younger LOL).
What's amazing about Avon's CC cream, you can apply and apply and apply many times. The more you put on the darker the effect... Love it love it love it.
Have bought my very own Avon CC Cream from a friend of mine, and loving it. Let's see maybe by the end of the year my marks will be gone... Fingers crossed.

Everyone has those "no make-up make-up" type of days. As for me, I have it between Monday and Friday. I like to be comfortable while I work and I feel that a full face of make-up is not ideal for my working situation.
Now let me tell you a bit about my skin; I have freckles on my checks and some scarring from pimples (Thanks, hormones!)and dark circles around the eyes. After reading what Avon's Ideal Flawless Colour Corrector Cream with SPF 50 promises to deliver, I was absolutely excited to try it out.
First thing I noticed about this CC Cream is the packaging, like always, Avon nailed the packaging with a sleek and classy black box with white writing and inside the box is the 30ml tube of CC Cream, the tube has the same sleek and classy black and white design with pink accents.
This CC Cream promises a lightweight multi-tasking formula with colour correcting pigments conceals flaws immediately and fades the look of pigmentation. And YES, it delivers that promises to a certain extent. When applying this CC cream on my face, I immediately got this lovely scent and also started to notice that some of my scarring was blurred and some lighter scars were almost gone!
It definitely did improve the look of dullness and dark circles on my face. It does promise to remove redness but luckily, I don't experience redness on my face. Another plus for this CC Cream is that it has an SPF of 50!!!
My morning routine now includes the Avon Ideal Flawless CC Color Corrector Cream. It is so easy to apply and after setting it with some powder and adding some blush, mascara and tinted lipbalm makes me look refreshed and awake!
I recieved the Avon CC Cream and to be honest I didn't have very high expectations. I mean, I've used foundation creams all my life and recently tried the Garnier BB cream, so I thought, really how different could the CC cream be. Well to my amazement, it works like a bomb!
I have a more even skin tone and after two weeks of using the cc cream daily I have no sign of pimple breakouts, which is fantastic for me because I am prone to them after 2 days of wearing base cover.
The cream is lovely and rich and glides onto my face easily and evenly. The honey colour gives my face a fabulous glow, which I love especially during winter! The other thing I love about this cc cream, is that it is light and doesn't feel like I am wearing makeup.
I would definitely purchase this product in future, it is really lovely!
Okay so I kinda have mixed feelings about this product.. Yes it does conceal dark spots, if a liberal amount is used, as it has a light coverage.. Yet it is really oily, I'm guessing cause it contains SPF50.. It can't be used on it's own.. I used it as a primer under my foundation, and it gives the face a subtle yet natural glow.. Due to the shine I used a setting powder on my t zone.. The soft honey matched my skin tone perfectly!! I would definetely purchase this product again, it is well price for a CC cream of such quality... x
Okay so I kinda have mixed feelings about this product.. Yes it does conceal all flaws like it promises, but on the other hand, it is very oily and can't be used on it's own.. It has a light coverage and makes your face really shiny.. I would ideally use this cream as a primer under my foundation, it gives the face a subtle glow.. If you have oily skin, like myself, it's a must to use a setting powder on the t zone of your face.. I would buy this product again when the trial tube is done and use it as a primer under my foundation :)
