Everybody is trying to achieve gorgeous and flawless skin within the least amount of time, so why not chuck all your old products away and make place for the revolutionary Avon Ideal Flawless Colour Corrector Cream with SPF 50, because this product is going to take away your attention, as well as take away your imperfections for a flawless skin, everyday. This latest hit CC Cream joins the collection of the "current" CC Cream collection, however don't doubt this little tube of CC Cream, because he has some magical tricks up his sleeve for us beauty lovers to benefit from.
So what does this Avon CC Cream have hiding up his sleeves, that makes him a revolutionary CC Cream which will steal your heart away? According to Avon, this beauty promises a "lightweight multitasking formula with colour correcting pigments which conceal flaws immediately and fades the look of pigmentation. The targeted formula with licorice and vitamin C to improve skin. " But of course, the magic doesn't stop there... This multitasking miracle CC Cream promises to also CORRECT and improve the look of dullness, dark circles and redness, while also PROTECTS and fights free radicals and provides UVA/UVB SPF 50 protection, and a round of applause for the grand finale which will blow your mind away... this CC Cream "begins to fade the appearance of dark spots in just 2 weeks".
So I love products which can live up to their promises, because they become "Holy Grail" products and then it causes me to have separation issues with the product were I literally CANNOT live without the product. So over the past two weeks of using the product, I've learnt to love this Avon CC Cream, and I'm definitely going to tell you why, so you can see how just one single product, can benefit you in so many ways... So ladies, grab a snack and let us get this show on the road!
This is definitely my first CC Cream I've actually owned, however I've tested a few CC Creams before and to me I didn't actually see much interest in it because I use concealer. So a thumbs up to Avon for changing this mind of mine and making me fall in love with the new Avon CC cream. The most powerful point about this CC Cream for me is the SPF, honestly... It is the first CC Cream I've seen with a sunscreen that has SPF 50 and for a CC cream which has sunscreen in it, it still happens to be so lightweight and doesn't leave skin with a whitish after effect, double score for my ladies out there who love flawless skin with sun protection! This CC cream having sunscreen helps out on those rushed mornings, so you don't have to slap on some sunscreen, just moisturise and CC cream time.
Admit it, everybody wants that specific product which makes them look like they have absolutely no make up on, am I right ladies? This Avon CC cream has the perfect texture which blends into skin perfectly using any method of application you like (I've tried applying with my fingers as well as using a Blender Baby for an airbrushed look) and yet this CC cream melts into skin within seconds, leaving skin looking brighter, more enhanced, as well as give skin a gorgeous fresh look, to me it appeared my skin had a healthy glow while still appearing natural. Now let's talk about this imperfections, yes my imperfections where hidden, there were no blemishes showing, as well as no redness or dullness plus my skin had a much more even tone however the pigmentation was not completely hidden, however this wasn't a problem for me because I still use foundation over my CC Cream.
So my normal routine would be to use a primer under my foundation, however this time I skipped the primer and just used the CC cream and applied my foundation. I dusted off my look with some loose powder and began to judge my look... I can admit that my make up looked flawless, my skin looked so lit up and all imperfections were completely hidden, this was definitely the moment this CC cream had stolen my heart away, however if you don't use foundation and you just want to use the Avon CC Cream, you can always add an extra layer for coverage because the CC cream is very easy to blend and build on.
Packaging Description: A 30ml black squeeze tube with a screw on lid, making it travel friendly and avoids product spillage. Black squeeze tube contains the letters "CC" in metallic shimmering silver which is eye catching while the rest of the text is in white using different font. The back of the squeeze tube contains the colour of the CC cream purchased.
The PRO's and CON's of Avon CC Cream
PRO's
Lightweight formula
Contains licorice and colour correcting pigments
Contains vitamin C which is known to fight and lighten imperfections over use
Conceals flaws immediately
Fades the look of pigmentation
Improves dullness, dark circles and redness
Contains sunscreen with SPF 50
Gives skin a natural and flawless look
Is available in 9 shades (which are listed below)
CC cream comes in a travel friendly tube

CON's
The only CON for me is the price, although this CC cream is always on special, the original and normal price of R159.99 for 30ml tube is a lot.
The Avon CC cream is available in the following shades:
Light:
-Ivory
-Shell
-Nude
-Natural Beige
Medium:
-Medium Beige
-Soft Honey
Dark:
-Nutmeg
-Caramel
-Sable
While we talking about the shades, I really appreciate the fact that there is a variety of shades, and the CC cream doesn't come in standard shades such as light, medium, dark and deep.
So I am going to end my review by talking about my experience after two weeks of using the CC cream, I feel my skin feels much more hydrated, appears a little smoother, at the moment my imperfections haven't vanished, however my skin is looking much more brighter and radiant which is thanks to the vitamin C in the product. So would I recommend this product? DEFINITELY! This product changes your entire make up routine from day one, it gives skin a gorgeous but naturally flawless appearance and leaves skin looking radiant and glowing, if you're willing to save up for this CC cream, I'd suggest you get it as soon as possible because it is truly a "holy grail" product currently on the market.
