Kaj sploh je CC krema ?
Je hibrid negovalne kreme ter tekočega pudra v enem. Namenjena je korekciji kože (poenoti polt, izenači ten, zmanjša videz rdečice...). Hkrati neguje kožo ter ima običajno večjo prekrivnost kot BB krema. Tekstura pa je lažja kot pri tekočih pudrih.
What is a CC cream ?
It is a hybrid of hydrating cream and liquid foundation. Its main task is to correct the skin (even out the skin tone, reduce redness...). Plus it provides more coverage than BB cream.
Matte
Tekstura: penasta, na začetku se zdi težja, ampak se zelo hitro zabriše in je na koži lahkotna. Jaz nimam občutka, da bi mi obtežila kožo in se ne občuti kot pravi puder.
Prekrivnost: srednja pri nanosu pumpice in pol (na embalaži je napisano, da je polna prekrivnost). Prekrije večino mojih nepravilnosti, pri tem pa koža še vedno izgleda naravno. Kakšne večje mozolje je potrebno prekriti s korektorjem. Videz je naraven, ni sijoč in tudi ne preveč matt. Ne občuti se kot maska.
Obstojnost: po 8 urah nošenja, moja koža izgleda bolj sijoča, vendar ne preveč mastna. Mi je všeč, da se ne loči na koži, ampak enakomerno bledi.
Vonj: nič posebnega. Če jo povonjate zelo blizu, se voha klasičen kozmetičen vonj.
SPF: 40
Original
Tekstura: lahka, vendar ne preveč tekoča. Enostavno se zabriše. Lepo se posuši in ni lepljiva ali težka. Najlepša se zabriše s čopičem kot je Zoeva 102 Silk Finish.
Prekrivnost: srednja, mogoče malce slabša kot pri matte različici. Izgled je lepo naraven, ne preveč sijoč.
Obstojnost: če pudra ne fiksiram z rahlim slojem pudra v kamnu, se svetim zelo hitro. Drugače pa je po 3-4 urah opazno, da je koža sijoča. Tako, da za cel dan ta CC krema ni primerna za mojo mešano kožo. Prekrivnost seveda malo zbledi čez dan.
Vonj: rahlo diši po limonah (limoninem sorbetu), kar je meni všeč saj se mi zdi tako osvežilna, ko jo nanašam.
SPF: 50+
Matte
Texture: like a mousse. A bit heavier to start off, but wears lightweight. It's easy to blend with Zoeva 102 Silk Finish brush. I don't feel it on the face throughout the day.
Coverage: medium (using one and a half pump). It covers most of imperfections (on big ones, you should use concealer) and evens out my skin tone. Looks natural, not too matt. It doesn't feel like a mask. On the packaging says it's full coverage though.
Longevity: after a whole day of wear, my skin tends to become more oily in comparison to Revlon Colorstay. But still, it doesn't separate, the skin just looks a bit more shiny. Coverage fades throughout the day a bit.
Scent: nothing special, if you smell it really closely, it's just like classic cosmetics scent.
SPF: 40
Original
Texture: light, not too runny but easy to blend. It dries down a bit, so it doesn't feel sticky or heavy.
Coverage: medium
Longevity: on my oily T-zone it wears on for about 5-6 hours. So it's not appropriate for a longer working day because it may be moving around. Coverage wears off a bit. It's definitely shinier but still not too oily. And it doesn't separate.
Scent: smells lightly like lemons which I really like because it feels refreshing while applying it.
SPF: 50+
Zaključek:
Najprej morem omeniti, da je nabor odtenkov pri teh CC kremah slabši. Najsvetlejši odtenek: Fair je zame v zimskem času mogoče mičkeno pretemen, vendar ga nekako zabrišem. Temu odtenku pa sledi precej temnih odtenkov. Odtenek: Light je že kar temen. Tega imam v original različici CC kreme, zato jo zmešam s posvetlitvenimi kapljicami. Zelo mi je všeč embalaža, ker ni steklena ter je lahka in priročna za potovanja. Hkrati pa ima priročno pumpico. Potovalna različica ima navadno tubico brez pumpice. Moji koži najbolj ustreza matirna verzija, vendar pozimi ne potrebujem tako matt izdelkov, zato je zame takrat tudi fajn original različica (vendar imam to v pretemnem odtenku). To uporabim tudi, ko potrebujem podlago samo za par ur.
Glede sestavin nisem strokovnjak, pa vendar sem malce raziskala. Na embalaži piše, da CC krema vsebuje serum proti staranju in za vlaženje. Na vrhu sestavin pri original različici je polžja slina, katero najdemo tudi v korejskih izdelkih za kožo in je znana po vlažilnih lastnostih. Obe pa vsebujeta Dimethicone (silikon, ki daje svilnat občutek), Niaciamide (se bojuje proti aknam) in Hialuronsko kislino (pri Matte je precej na dnu liste, pri Original malo višje) za vlaženje. Hkrati vsebujeta nekaj antioksidantov ter pomirjajočih sestavin. Tako, da imata lastnosti negovalne kreme.
Cena za katerokoli CC kremo je okoli 39€, kar je precej drago, vendar imam sama še dražje pudre, ki pa se ne obnesejo tako dobro kot matt CC krema. Obe CC kremi se mi zdita dobri, tako, da če se odločate med njima, izberite tisto, ki je primerna za vaš tip kože: suh ali mešan/masten. Moja najljubša je Matt verzija. Res jo rada nosim, ker nimam občutka kot, da bi nosila težek puder in tudi izgled mi je res všeč za vsak dan. Prav tako pa ne poudari suhih predelov.
Original - Light (+The Body Shop Lightening Drops)
Conclusion:
Firstly I can say that the whole CC cream range has some strange color choices. The lightest one is: Fair which can be too dark for me sometimes but I somehow manage to blend it in nicely. And then they have a variety of darker shades. Shade: light is quite dark. I have that shade in an original version and I mix it with lightening drops. The packaging is great for travel since it's not glass plus I love the pump, which is really handy. Plus it has SPF 40. Though a travel size is a normal squeezy tube. My skin is on more oily side, but in the colder months it's a it better and I don't need such mattifying products, so that's when I would choose an original version if I don't need my foundation to last all day or I will just wear it for a few hours. As goes for ingredients, I'm not an expert. On the packaging it says the CC cream contains anti-aging and hydrating serum. From ingredients on top of the list, I found that the original version contains snail slime (also found in k-beauty) which has hydration properties. But also both contain silicon (Dimethicone) which leaves velvety feeling, Niaciamide which has anti-acne properties and Hyaluronic Acid (Matte version has it at the bottom of the ingredients list, while Original one a bit higher) for hydration. Also some antioxidants and soothing ingredients are added. So they do have skincare benefits.
Price for both is: 39€, which is quite high but I have even more expensive foundations which don't give me such great effect and look. I really love wearing matt CC cream because I don't have a feeling of a heavy foundation and the natural finish on the skin looks really nice for everyday. Plus it doesn't cling to dry patches. All in all, these are great and if you're thinking about buying any, choose the one for your skin type.
