Lakme CC Complexion Care Cream- Review:
Hi Ladies,
Finally I was able to put my hands on the Lakme CC Cream and
after using it for a while, I am ready to review it. I have used Garnier BB
cream, Ponds BB cream and the Maybelline BB stick and now it was time to take
one step ahead and try a CC cream , so read below about my experience with
Lakme CC Cream:
About Lakme CC Cream:
Lakmé CC stands for Complexion
Care cream. It combines the goodness of your daily skin cream with just the
right touch of make-up to give you that perfect look in just a few minutes. Its
skin care benefits include sun protection (SPF 20), moisturizing, brightening
and freshness while its make-up benefits are an even skin tone and basic
coverage. SKIN CARE + MAKE-UP: Brightens, Moisturizes, UV Protection, Conceals,
Refreshes, Evens Skin Tone.
How do i choose the right cc shade for my skin?: Lakmé CC comes in 2 shades -
Beige (for a fair to wheatish complexion) and Bronze (for a dusky complexion)
enabling you to choose the right shade for your complexion. It is a light
formulation that ensures the cream is easily absorbed into your skin and also
gives it a perfect, even tone that looks natural and not made up.
Lakmé CC Cream is designed for
you, the modern woman who needs to look her best at all times. However, a tight
and busy schedule can leave you with little time to look after your skin. But
now, you can kiss your skin care worries goodbye. CC cream takes care of your
skin as it brings together the best of skin care with just the right touch of
make-up to give you instantly styled skin every day. It comes in an
easy-to-carry tube so you can take it with you wherever you go to give you
instantly styled skin anywhere, no matter what the occasion.
How to test: Take a small drop of CC and apply on the back of your hand. Gently
blend into skin. To showcase the difference, compare the non-CC cream hand to
the one with CC on it.
How to use: Dab and apply the cream in dots across face and neck and gently
blend it using finger tips. Take a small amount of cream in your palms and
evenly apply all over face and neck.
Price: Rs. 250/-
Ingredients:
My experience with Lakme CC
cream:
Packaging: It comes in a faded golden colored tube with a
sliver cap. The details are written with bright pink color which makes it look
attractive. The outer cover is of a bright pink color which is just so good
looking. The tube is quiet sturdy and convenient.
Shade: I chose Beige for myself
which is the lighter one from the 2 shades available.
Texture & Coverage: The
texture is very soft and blend-able It gives a velvety feel and blends into the
skin like magic. It’s neither thin nor thick but a perfect formulation. As
Lakme states CC as Complexion Care, yes it does helps in brightening the
complexion after application and hides all the imperfections without leaving
any white cast on the face. The coverage is build-able as needed. It keeps me
matte till 3-4 hours and after that my T-zone starts getting oily. It can be
used to conceal the under eye area also. It gives a matte effect so a good
option for oily skinned gals though the dry skinned gals can always use a
moisturizer underneath.
What I like about Lakme CC
Cream:
- Super chic looking packaging
- Affordable
- Available all over
- Velvety texture
- Blends easily
- Hides imperfections
What I don’t like about Lakme
CC Cream:
- There should be more shades available
Final Thoughts: I feel this CC
Cream better that BB creams but would like Lakme to introduce more shades so
that it wont be a problem for the Indian beauties to chose the correct shade
for themselves.
Rating: 4.5/5
Will I recommend? Yes I will as
it will suit the oily skinned gals too and the coverage is build-able which
makes it opt for daily wear as a make up base.
Love,
Navneet.
