Im not sure beauty. I LOVE the brand. And the parfums are beautiful as well. I wear the brand almost exclusively and I look for reviews which are almost non exisitant.
I love the classiness of your makeup looks. THANK YOU SOOOOO MUCH for keeping the looks focused on the beauty of the individual and not trying to become completely different by using makeup. Please give us your favorite classy highlighters in a video.
Love this stuff. Blends beautifully and takes away redness. No pore clogging or reaction to SPF . I live in a hot climate and I don't like the feel of powder .A lovely natural look
I tried the Chanel CC cream when it first came out. I recall it was 50 spf, heavily scented (as Chanel products are), emphasized my texture slightly, had light to medium coverage, was slightly drying, had a bit too much pink for my liking, and wore well for about 6 hrs. It wasn't horrible but it wasn't worth the $85 I paid for it. I can get just as good a performance for half that price from IT Cosmetics CC cream or Missha Perfect Cover BB cream.
You have been such a huge help to me. Im turning 40 this year and im learning how to pick products with your help and all the suggestions you make. Much appreciated.
Hi Michelle! I have a note on SPF, I see some other comments about this as well: I would be careful about depending on a base product to give you the protection you need. Companies are not "lying" when they put the SPF / PA ratings on their packaging, but it is confusing to consumers because that is a regulated claim for how much protection a product gives when applied 2 mg per 1 cm2 and not a "the protection we get for the usual amount we would use for this product's function." (e.g. if a foundation says SPF 50 but we only use a pea size for nice coverage, we're not getting the SPF 50 protection). The general rule of thumb is that to get the stated SPF protection on a product we need to apply around 1/4 measuring teaspoon which we basically would never do with a foundation! And as a side note, an SPF 50 foundation, sunscreen or moisturizer all mean when the same amount of those different types of products are applied, the protection is the same. (Same testing for the regulated labeling.) For a fun but science based beauty info I highly recommend Lab Muffin Beauty Science! E.g. How Much Sunscreen Do You Need For Your Face? ua-cam.com/video/NKS5kMbZBlk/v-deo.html Also I really appreciate your review, Michelle! Especially how you don't add concealers etc. so we see just how the product wears is fantastic. Thanks for your dedication to showing us! ♡
I looked it up online at apparently, the old CC cream only contained titanium dioxide as a sunscreen ingredient. The new one has that plus zinc oxide which is an amazing UVA filter and octinoxate. So while it's still SPF 50, the ingredients in it to filter the UV light are better.
Thank you for reviewing Chanel. My mom loved Chanel and she passed her love for the line to me, from lipsticks, shadows, skin care, foundation and fragrances Chanel will always be part of my makeup collection. 😘😘😘😘
This is the newest version of Chanel's CC cream and I just tried it and I like it a lot. I also have dry skin this also can be worn with foundation on top of it; this formula is much lighter in texture and more translucent then the original so it can be worn mixed with your regular foundation. I also like the spf 50.
This is a really good review ! I actually agree , it sits in the lines and infact enhances them , from a distance looks good but up close definitely sits in the lines .... it’s also kind of thick and greasy feels like I’m applying loads of thick sunscreen on my face
Long time fan, but first time commenter! Your look is verrrryyyyy CHANEL, the blouse is lovely! We have the same preferences/aesthetics in the appearance/feel of the skin, and all this time I watch I am always shouting at the damn screen recommending one of my favorite bases for you! That being said you MUST try the Dr Hauschka Tinted Day Cream darling. GORGEOUS finish, feel, and ingredient list. I’ve tried EVERYTHING on the market advertised towards us scaly eczema ridden gals, and although it has LIGHT coverage, it is hands down the most plumping, hydrating, and nourishing I’ve tried of the bunch (INCLUDING clea de peu’s “foundation”)! You’re welcome 😘 Jacob ❤️
I feel like i have to do a review on the original now because i absolutely love it. I think that your skin looks very nice on camera after the 4.5 hour mark.. I just read the ingredient deck on the box and it has peach extract for line reducing effect and hyaluronic acid. The new version is deffo runnier whereas old one is thicker. My older formula wears medium to heavy coverage and is very dewy also. Covers every bit of redness and blemish and no real need for concealer. I wore it everyday when i did a 2.5 week tour of the West Coast USA and i never got one bit of colour on my face. It was and is fanatstic, Its a little heavy for normal every day wear. It is SPF50 also. Hope this helps Michelle,xxx
I remember the original CC Cream looked very patchy and opaque on my dry skin. So I had my mom try it since she has a normal to oily skin and she loved it. ( She is a dedicated Chanel user. She never gets bored of the loose powder, lipsticks, and their perfumes. ) After watching your video, I get a feeling this new one is going to be too dry on me 🤔🤔🤔. You just save me $$$ and a trip to the store.lol. Thank you for that! Love the fresh lip color on you today! It goes so well with your eye makeup. Very chic and urban!
for those with very negative comments this product had spf in it also correction. what foundation does give you this result on the top of spf and what spf does not feel too heavy ot oily or sticky...just to think about
I know you weren’t super impressed, but this actually looks really beautiful on you. I’d be curious if you’ve worn it again with a full face? It looks very smooth and polished.
Thank you for your time. I like the finish. I never take any foundation product under my eyes, so may not be an issue for me. It did look patchy and faded to me. Overall looks nice.
First of all, I really liked your approach in reviewing the Chanel CC cream. Secondly, I’d like to ask for your suggestions how to tackle hyperpigmentation on forehead.
I loved the old version first one I bought before 4 years in term of color they had two colors only but an amazing coverage and the color was amazing the only problem it was too dry this version is so shinny I need always to finish it with powder because I am mix skin for you did you try Chanel Vitalumiere satin fluid 20 Clair cameo I loved it since you are 20 Chanel loose powder I loved it ❤️
I contacted Chanel and was told "The new CC Cream is very similar to the previous formula and we have expanded our color range." In other words it seems it hasn't changed much at all. There used to be 3 shades and now there are 5. I am using the old formula (also SPF 50) and it does take some time to dry down. I definitely wait longer than I would with most foundations before powdering and find I need less powder in fewer areas this way.
Im currently using (only in the summer months) Trish McEvoy shade 1 BB balm but this product looks friggin gorgeous. I hate foundation....i just want a little coverage with moisturizer and SPF. Im going to buy this now and try it....then ill have my winter product ❤❤❤
While I love your in depth reviews, I actually think you have beautiful skin and would love to see a skincare routine and skincare favorites! I think it would be very interesting to see how you keep your skin so clear and radiant!
I do have the previous formula and found out that it’s really dry, difficult to blend out (even I tried my finger, brush and damped sponge)and sunk into my pores. When i touched up with powder it became cakey. I failed to use this product 😢😢😢 I wanna share you the ingredient list specifies on the box ... but don’t know how to insert the photo;however, it has spf of 50.
Hi! I have both the old CC cream bought in 2014 and the new one bought recently. I remember the old one did wonderful for a whole day in Bali - I did snorkling, took a boat ride, moving around across islands. The CC cream works wonder and it never turns cakey! Haven’t try the new one, hope it gets even better with the said new formula!
On Makeup Alley and Nordstrom reviewers bemoan the retired one that you spoke of, although I never tried it, I really like the glow on you, do you or anyone on here like Chanel's concealers.
i love the chanel fragrance 😃 the older version is more « pastey » in texture, resulting in a higher coverage, and came in spf30. the current formula is more runny and blends better into the skin. i like it on weekends when i’ve only errands to run while looking put together without having to be too va va voom. it looks great on you ! i’m inspired to wear it more often now hahah - paired with the chanel loose powder of course, which has been a favourite of mine for more than 10years ! x
I had the old version of this, the spf was always 50, also the packaging looks the same to me. I absolutely loved the old formula. It had very decent coverage, was heavily fragranced ( which can be a big problem for some but not for me), the finish was dewy and beautiful on me. I actually hope it wasn't changed too much. 😫
I don't get the purpose of BB/CC creams in higher end companies. It seems like most luxury brands tout skin care ingredients in their foundations anyway so how are CC creams different?
I'm just speculating, but I think the differing regulations on sunscreens around the world have contributed to there being differing SPF options. Perhaps there have also been different reformulations for the product over the years for different markets according to various climates and regulations so they can achieve a similar standard of effectiveness in the product.
am looking for new cc/tinted moisturiser from chanel and i came across ur chanel which is great! i saw that u/ve reviews both(new cc cream+les beiges tinted moisturiser) i would really appreciate if u could tell me which one do like more and why i think it would help me decide which to go for. THX xoxo
I don’t know how but even the beige colour of Chanel has a slight pink under one- or even peach. So cannot go for their base products for this reason...
As a Bobbi brown fan I thought I’d throw out there that her holiday eye palette, infrared, is awesome! I love sparkle and it’s like diamond powder! So good
Hi Michele... it’s Sept 2020, and here I am late to the Chanel foundation party lol. Had to do my research which includes getting your thoughts here on the tube. Looks like I’m about to buy my first Chanel CC cream foundation :) thank you for your detailed in depth review. Xo
I really appreciate it Michelle, but I wanted to know how concealer layers on it. Since during summer I just wear CC, concealer, powder and go about my day! If u have done it off camera pls share ur thoughts
I really like your makeup in this video! The blusher and the lipstick are to die for and they suit you so well! I remember I got the original one when it first launched. It only launched in Japan and Taiwan first and I happened to be in Taiwan at that time and I got it. I really loved it and one of the rare makeup product that I actually finished off. When the product come to the U.K. and US, I heard it was not the same formula than the one I got in Taiwan. I actually never tried it so I can not compare. I have dry skin and I did not find the Chanel CC drying at all (again, I never tried the versions that were sold in the U.K. and US). I hate most BB and CC creams since they are usually too drying for my skin (I must be the only one who hates the IT Cosmetics CC cream - I look a 100 years old when I’m wearing it and it dries out my skin so badly), but I loved the Chanel. My other favorite is the Estée Lauder DD cream - besides of the ridiculous name, it is beautiful, dewy and moisturising.
dobcsek You are not alone...the it Cosmetics CC cream (all formulas of their foundation line actually) makes my dry/combo skin look 100 too. Thank you for your comments.
Great, in depth review. This looks lovely on you, especially when first applied. Idk, too many other foundations, etc out there. Thanks so much, beautiful🍃🌸.
I believe that prior to 2015, there was an SPF 30 version. It contained parabens. The version from 2015 with SPF 50 doesn't look that different from the current version. They are using the same sunscreen chemicals, only reducing the percentage of one of these, but not upping the other two sunscreen ingredients. It looks like they switched from one moisturizing fruit extract to another one. I had the 2015 version and returned it. It was too drying, but I will probably pass on this one as unless I am in a super hurry, I prefer to use a separate European sunscreen and then a light foundation without sunscreen. Here's the 2015 ingredient list: 2015 SPF 50: Active Ingredients: Octinoxate 7.5, Titanium dioxide 3.2 Zinc oxide 15.2 Inactive Ingredients: water • caprylyl methicone • PEG-10 dimethicone • dimethicone • glycerin • phenyl trimethicone • alcohol • methyl trimethicone • butylene glycol • prunus persica (peach) leaf extract • plankton extract • glycyrrhiza glabra (licorice) root extract • prunus persica (peach) fruit extract • hydrogenated polyisobutene • triethoxycaprylylsilane • phenoxyethanol • dimethicone/PEG-10/15 crosspolymer • sodium chloride • stearic acid • potassium sorbate •alumina • fragrance • aluminum hydroxide • dimethicone crosspolymer • disteardimonium hectorite • sodium lauroyl glutamate • sodium hyaluronate • lysine • propylene carbonate • silica • propylene glycol • magnesium chloride • dipropylene glycol • BHT • ethylhexylglycerin • tocopherol • citric acid • sorbic acid (may contain) ultramarines • iron oxides • titanium dioxide • mica
Wayne Goss has an interesting vlog regarding SPF. You can get to it by putting Wayne Goss SPF in the UA-cam search bar or the name of is 'the biggest lie makeup companies say'. He demonstrates how much of the product you would need to apply inorder to get the sun protection benfits claimed on the product. It is MUCH more than any of us would ever use which he demonstrates in a Wanye Goss amusing way. Thoughts? I am addicted to your channel! Thank you.
I always apply a separate spf even if foundation claims spf protection. I use a very small amount of foundation so don’t depend on foundation for sun protection
Hi Michele, Do you like this CC Cream more than the Chanel tinted moisturizer. I really like the tinted moisturizer a lot but I wish it was a little more coverage. Recently I am obsessed with Chanel. Have you tried the Hydra skincare line? I was thinking about getting that.
If you want a little more coverage, I would def try this CC cream! I've tried the Hydra camellia water cream, but it has alcohol in it so I passed on it.
I appreciated this review of the Chanel CC cream. I received a sample of it when I purchased the Les Beiges Moisturizing tint. I used it a few times to compare and while I found it had more coverage than the tint, I had hard time getting past the fragrance which doesn' t seem to be an issue with the tint. I thought it was hydrating as I have extremely dry skin. While the higher SPF is a great perk, I don't really need it now going into the Fall out East. I spend most of my time in an office and have a short commute from home to work and back. I also found that it irritated my skin a bit, but I always seem to have issues with products with higher SPFs. Between the two Chanel products and the NARS Radiant Tinted Moisturizer, I think I prefer NARS over both of them. I also think you get a bit more product with NARS even if it is a few dollars more. I will finish using the tint, however. I will say, I love how the Obscur Clair shadows look on you and I am still on the fence about whether to purchase it or not. Maybe an early birthday present. Thanks again for a your thoughts about the CC cream.
I wish luxury brands would step up and start listing ingredients. I don’t want to go to a counter to check an ingredients list. Especially since so many people are sensitive to chemical sunscreens.
Again; nice and thorough review ( so we expect you to be nothing less than hypercritical lol) . I have older and combination skin . Usually i use vitalumiere aqua . The last couple of days i tried the CC Cream over crème huile reparatrice as moisturizer I had to re- apply powder once during the day and shade 30 instead of my usual 20 Otherwise no problem whatsoever after it dried down . I can only recommend it.
I guess I'm the only one that liked the old formula. I liked that it was matte which was perfect for humid NYC weather. The old one did have spf 50 as well. I just looked at my old tube.
Finally someone who when testing foundation and doesn’t put 10 products before, 3 concealers all over the face and 3 pouders. 👍🏻
Thank you for doing CHANEL I don't know many bloggers that review CHANEL makeup and skincare
Coco Orenstein true. But why? I love Chanel makeup and skincare.
Im not sure beauty. I LOVE the brand. And the parfums are beautiful as well. I wear the brand almost exclusively and I look for reviews which are almost non exisitant.
Coco Orenstein Me to. I was very surprised when I saw this upload. Other makeup channels should step up.
See thebeautylookbook (blog not YT). She does mostly high end. I have connection whatsoever
check this channel out. i just found her. all she talks is chanel. DreDreDoesMakeup
I love the classiness of your makeup looks. THANK YOU SOOOOO MUCH for keeping the looks focused on the beauty of the individual and not trying to become completely different by using makeup. Please give us your favorite classy highlighters in a video.
Love this stuff. Blends beautifully and takes away redness. No pore clogging or reaction to SPF . I live in a hot climate and I don't like the feel of powder .A lovely natural look

Best thing ever...perfect for dry skin, spf, and covers redness...looks healthy and like you don't even have make up on, so natural!!!!! Love it!
You have been such a huge help to me. Im turning 40 this year and im learning how to pick products with your help and all the suggestions you make. Much appreciated.

It's just amazing on my skin....
I love CHANEL makeup & skincare.

I use Chanel CC cream for almost a year. It's very good but it does crease. Sometimes it moves on the skin. But I still use it and love it.
I picked this up Friday night, I plan on wearing it to work tomorrow... Wish me luck!,,
I know you weren’t super impressed, but this actually looks really beautiful on you. I’d be curious if you’ve worn it again with a full face? It looks very smooth and polished.
I have old and new one. They are both 50spf and yes I do like the new one, it’s lighter then the 1st one
Hi Michele, how do you think it compares with the la mer reparative skin tint? Thanks and love your videos.
Curious about this too..
The most useful channel ever , very honest , beautiful lady, clear information thanks a lot😘😘
Thank you for your time. I like the finish. I never take any foundation product under my eyes, so may not be an issue for me. It did look patchy and faded to me. Overall looks nice.

While I love your in depth reviews, I actually think you have beautiful skin and would love to see a skincare routine and skincare favorites! I think it would be very interesting to see how you keep your skin so clear and radiant!
Michele!! I have to find a blouse like yours!!! Where did it come from? Or who made it? It is so fantastic!!!!❤️
I also enjoy the light-medium coverage foundations. The sunscreen attracts me to this. Which is your favorite holy grail radiant foundation?
Which one do u think its better.. its the Chanel or the La Mer?
Jonnalyn Feng I wanted to ask the same. I have the la Mer and I’m wondering the same because this one is less expensive and new.
Rosa María Vélez I do have the La Mer just got it from Korea, and i do like it.
Jonnalyn Feng I love it too. But I haven’t tried the Chanel
La Mer reparative tinted, Chantecaille tinted or Chanel CC? For you because I have mature dry skin like you. Thank you ❤️😘
I love this cc cream, even my skin is oily...... beautiful texture!
Michele- where did you get your top?
I do have the previous formula and found out that it’s really dry, difficult to blend out (even I tried my finger, brush and damped sponge)and sunk into my pores. When i touched up with powder it became cakey. I failed to use this product 😢😢😢 I wanna share you the ingredient list specifies on the box ... but don’t know how to insert the photo;however, it has spf of 50.
Hi! I have both the old CC cream bought in 2014 and the new one bought recently.
I remember the old one did wonderful for a whole day in Bali - I did snorkling, took a boat ride, moving around across islands. The CC cream works wonder and it never turns cakey! Haven’t try the new one, hope it gets even better with the said new formula!
Please do a review of the hourglass unlock palette. Love the lipstick

Oh and with everyday use, it lasted me almost a year.
KarolinaEmilia I prefer the old formula. It had a lifting and glowing effect that this one hasn’t. The covarage also is lighter . 😕
Very French chic babe! 💕 I don’t know why , but I’ve tried a few Chanel foundations and never liked them. So I stick to their eyeshadows and blushes.
Really in-depth review- thank you 😊

Michele can you do a review / try on for Tom Ford primer ?
am looking for new cc/tinted moisturiser from chanel and i came across ur chanel which is great! i saw that u/ve reviews both(new cc cream+les beiges tinted moisturiser) i would really appreciate if u could tell me which one do like more and why i think it would help me decide which to go for. THX xoxo
Why should we use a radiance product and then use powder on top? I really would like to know.
I don’t know how but even the beige colour of Chanel has a slight pink under one- or even peach. So cannot go for their base products for this reason...
Hi Michelle-Did the Chanel CC cream feel tacky on the skin? Thank you for this review!
As a Bobbi brown fan I thought I’d throw out there that her holiday eye palette, infrared, is awesome! I love sparkle and it’s like diamond powder! So good
bought one and love it very much
I got a sample of the new CC cream to see if I like it. I have old one and I really like it
Will you review the new Pat McGrath eye palette?
Simone Lehner would love to see this too!
Hi, not sure if what i noticed is true but this new chanel cc cream seems to have 3 + which maybe an improved spf from the previous cc cream.
Mich you look STUNNING!
Hi Michele, would you consider doing a review of the Le Blanc line from Chanel? Especially the foundations. Thanks for the consideration. ☺️
Love your review... what's the lipstick you are wearing?
Hi Michele... it’s Sept 2020, and here I am late to the Chanel foundation party lol. Had to do my research which includes getting your thoughts here on the tube. Looks like I’m about to buy my first Chanel CC cream foundation :) thank you for your detailed in depth review. Xo
Hi Michele!I would love to hear your thoughts on the new Hourglass face palettes as well as the new brand Il Makiage. Thank you!
Simone Lehner second that
I really appreciate it Michelle, but I wanted to know how concealer layers on it. Since during summer I just wear CC, concealer, powder and go about my day! If u have done it off camera pls share ur thoughts

Thank you for reviewing. I just finished a tube of the older version and was trying to decide on repurchasing. :-)
Great, in depth review. This looks lovely on you, especially when first applied. Idk, too many other foundations, etc out there.
Thanks so much, beautiful🍃🌸.
Do you like this better than the sisley tinted sunscreen?
Thanks for share this video
Thank you for the review. I really like your honest take on the products.
Good morning beautiful ❤️ thank you for another great review!!
I believe that prior to 2015, there was an SPF 30 version. It contained parabens. The version from 2015 with SPF 50 doesn't look that different from the current version. They are using the same sunscreen chemicals, only reducing the percentage of one of these, but not upping the other two sunscreen ingredients. It looks like they switched from one moisturizing fruit extract to another one. I had the 2015 version and returned it. It was too drying, but I will probably pass on this one as unless I am in a super hurry, I prefer to use a separate European sunscreen and then a light foundation without sunscreen. Here's the 2015 ingredient list:
2015 SPF 50: Active Ingredients: Octinoxate 7.5, Titanium dioxide 3.2 Zinc oxide 15.2 Inactive Ingredients: water • caprylyl methicone • PEG-10 dimethicone • dimethicone • glycerin • phenyl trimethicone • alcohol • methyl trimethicone • butylene glycol • prunus persica (peach) leaf extract • plankton extract • glycyrrhiza glabra (licorice) root extract • prunus persica (peach) fruit extract • hydrogenated polyisobutene • triethoxycaprylylsilane • phenoxyethanol • dimethicone/PEG-10/15 crosspolymer • sodium chloride • stearic acid • potassium sorbate •alumina • fragrance • aluminum hydroxide • dimethicone crosspolymer • disteardimonium hectorite • sodium lauroyl glutamate • sodium hyaluronate • lysine • propylene carbonate • silica • propylene glycol • magnesium chloride • dipropylene glycol • BHT • ethylhexylglycerin • tocopherol • citric acid • sorbic acid (may contain) ultramarines • iron oxides • titanium dioxide • mica
Thanks for this great info Andrea!! xoxo
Wayne Goss has an interesting vlog regarding SPF. You can get to it by putting Wayne Goss SPF in the UA-cam search bar or the name of is 'the biggest lie makeup companies say'. He demonstrates how much of the product you would need to apply inorder to get the sun protection benfits claimed on the product. It is MUCH more than any of us would ever use which he demonstrates in a Wanye Goss amusing way. Thoughts? I am addicted to your channel! Thank you.
I always apply a separate spf even if foundation claims spf protection. I use a very small amount of foundation so don’t depend on foundation for sun protection
Wayne Goss is generally not down with Chanel, so who knows< I know it's buildable as the makeup artist was very big on it.
How would you compare this to the Les Beiges Tint (which I love). Much thicker?
Glad you didn't use anything under the Chanel. Does it contain mineral suncreen? I think it looked pretty good after 8 hours...
Hi Michele, Do you like this CC Cream more than the Chanel tinted moisturizer. I really like the tinted moisturizer a lot but I wish it was a little more coverage. Recently I am obsessed with Chanel. Have you tried the Hydra skincare line? I was thinking about getting that.
If you want a little more coverage, I would def try this CC cream! I've tried the Hydra camellia water cream, but it has alcohol in it so I passed on it.
@@TheMicheleWang Thanks for the input!
Very nice actually... what did you think of the brush ? ... compared to your Sonia G?
As asian i love your review and beauty. More chanel reviews please.. 😊💕✨
Looks stunning with eyes and lippy
Can you let me know what the brush you use? Thank you so much.
Chanel CC used to be 40 spf three years ago, then they changed it to spf 50 a couple years ago, does it still have a rose scent?
How was the colour match in daylight? Because on screen it looked a little light/ashy.
The lipstick shade is beautiful. I'll pass on CC cream , is this a chemical or mineral sunscreen ?
Although there are some issues with it, I really think it did look gorgeous on you!
I appreciated this review of the Chanel CC cream. I received a sample of it when I purchased the Les Beiges Moisturizing tint. I used it a few times to compare and while I found it had more coverage than the tint, I had hard time getting past the fragrance which doesn' t seem to be an issue with the tint. I thought it was hydrating as I have extremely dry skin. While the higher SPF is a great perk, I don't really need it now going into the Fall out East. I spend most of my time in an office and have a short commute from home to work and back. I also found that it irritated my skin a bit, but I always seem to have issues with products with higher SPFs. Between the two Chanel products and the NARS Radiant Tinted Moisturizer, I think I prefer NARS over both of them. I also think you get a bit more product with NARS even if it is a few dollars more. I will finish using the tint, however. I will say, I love how the Obscur Clair shadows look on you and I am still on the fence about whether to purchase it or not. Maybe an early birthday present. Thanks again for a your thoughts about the CC cream.
Thanks for the no concealer-very helpful review!
I bought my chanel cc cream this summer, and i also got beige , but the number is 30.
I remember really liking the old version but it ran pink on me.
Same. I even bought two shades, so i can mix them... Still pink. :/
looks great, I just wish they made this in my shade!
I wish luxury brands would step up and start listing ingredients. I don’t want to go to a counter to check an ingredients list. Especially since so many people are sensitive to chemical sunscreens.
This one is mineral in case you wanted to know. Zinc and titanium dioxide.
Valerie Shaffer thank you!
I think I’ll add a few drops of face oil when I apply this.
Gorgeous ❤
Thanks for this review!💕💕💕
Thank you. I like it💯👍
Which shade u use ?
Can you use it as a primer? Helena
Again; nice and thorough review ( so we expect you to be nothing less than hypercritical lol) . I have older and combination skin .
Usually i use vitalumiere aqua . The last couple of days i tried the CC Cream over crème huile reparatrice as moisturizer
I had to re- apply powder once during the day and shade 30 instead of my usual 20
Otherwise no problem whatsoever after it dried down . I can only recommend it.
Great review !
Thank you!
I guess I'm the only one that liked the old formula. I liked that it was matte which was perfect for humid NYC weather. The old one did have spf 50 as well. I just looked at my old tube.
Valerie Shaffer I do prefer the old version too. Too bad😞
I hope you try lura marcier lumaier luninous foundatio
I hop to haear from you about it
will you consider dying the white hair black?
Junfei Shen I’m actually SUPER into the natural look. She looks amazing.
