Bourjois123 Perfect CC Cream Colour Correcting 31 Ivory, 3ml, 357310

Great coverage. Hydrating and not heavy.

I have fallen in love with this CC cream. This is my second tube. When I first tried this, I wasn’t sure. I am used to using foundations, but now feel they are a bit heavy. The older I get, the more I want to keep things light. Too much make-up only seems to highlight fine lines these days. These are all the rage, it seems. By the end of my first tube, I’d fallen in love with this. I am now on my second tube.I have rated this product with 5 stars as it is very, very good indeed.COVERAGEVery good! My skin is blemish-free. However, if I have darker eye circles or ruddier cheeks on any given day, I’d need to use a bit of concealer too. I see the range has a matching concealer which I may try soon and review.COLOUR + SPFBrilliant! I am very pale-skinned, with cheeks that flush easily. According to the Melanoma Foundation, my skin type is Celtic Type 1 (the palest of all). I often have great difficulty finding foundations/CC creams that are not too dark/orange. Sometimes, I can be fooled, and they start off looking fine, but then oxidize - later turning orange on me behind my back! Very embarrassing. I now test stuff for a full day at home before going out. I picked No. 31 “Ivory” which was the lightest they have. When I first saw the colour, I wasn’t at all sure it would work for me, but to my surprise, it settled on my skin and looked entirely natural. Thrilled with this as I have often had to throw stuff out after one or two uses because the colour was just too odd and unnatural-looking. It also has an SPF of 15 – important for all of us. I burn easily and never tan so I really need this.FEELING ON SKINGives moisture. My skin is over 40 and quite dry. This CC cream is marketed as having 24-hour moisturisation. I feel that it does live up to this claim, as my skin is not thirsty at the end of the day. I am careful to use a good moisturiser underneath though and also use a 2-in-1 moisturising primer on top of that. I have also given up powder as it is supposed to be ageing and dries out my skin even more. Provided I do all this, I do find that the CC does not dry out my skin. The application is very smooth. The liquid is more watery than some other CC creams, but don’t pour out too much and you’ll be fine. It glides over the skin very well. It applies very quickly. At the same time, it does not go all sticky and take ages to dry. I like to get moving in the morning and hate waiting around for products to sink in or dry so I can move on to the next step in my routine.LASTING POWERI think this lasts really well. It doesn’t go patchy at the end of the day or disappear on my skin. I don’t live in a place with high pollution, however, and I am in clean country air. Maybe that helps?In summary, I think this a great CC cream for me. Despite being a thinnish liquid, I am surprised at the coverage this still provides. As mentioned, if I am particularly tired (dark eye circles) or a bit hot and bothered (red, flushed cheeks) this isn’t quite enough coverage, but then it is a CC cream and not a foundation. The price is good and I have found the CC cream goes a long way. I couldn’t believe it didn’t run out sooner. The colour surprised me, as I have so much difficulty matching colour and with only 3 shades available, I wasn’t expecting much. It’s a long time since I’ve purchased the same foundation or CC cream twice. I always feel I could find better. This is my second tube of Bourjois CC 123 cream and I think I may stock up while I can '

I like this as it covers blemishes well, and has a good texture. I had been having trouble finding it as where I used to buy it stopped selling the brand, so I am very pleased to be able to get it again.

I've used this cc cream for years, its not heavy but it gives. good coverage and isnt heavy or cloggy on the skin. with there being more than one colour its great for summer when the skin is tanned. its amazing value for money and i would recommend it to anyone, the coverage is good but it manages to look sheer.

Excellent product gives decent coverage and evens skin tone without looking made up or heavy. I use it after swimming when my skin is blotchy or for a light day make up. I use the Rose Beige and the Tan one in the summer I have medium skin with dark hair and blue eyes. Cannot buy it in the shops anymore which is very annoying as I’ve been using it for a few years. As is the case with most of bourgeois, excellent products for very little outlay. I would avoid their mascaras though never found one of theirs I get on with.

I found this to have a nice texture and was easy to blend, but it’s gone slightly pinky/orange after oxidising and the fragrance has caused some spots and redness. Is a bit of a shame because I read really positive things about it.

Excellent cream.

I've never work face-skin make-up. Messed around with mascara, dabbled with eyeliners (badly) and whipped on some lip gloss, but nothing close to a foundation. This is as close to the plastic-fantastic air brush look as I'll get. And I'm converted. I mix mine 1-part CC and 2-parts moisturiser and ta - da! super model. Ok, not quite the cover of Vogue, but certainly an improvement on morning 'grey'.Stays on in the gym, keeps me looking fresh running (hard to do at 39 weeks pregnant), and it very understated. And I did not want to seem prettier than I am with full on foundation and a thick layer of filter for my selfie.This means I can go 'all natural' and enjoy the wind at my cheeks.
