IT Cosmetic CC Cream Full Coverage question

happygolfcartrider — Wed, 12 Oct 2016 19:17:18 GMT

I went to ULTA today to try the CC Cream Full Coverage. I have a couple of age spots and a blemish. The cream did not cover either so the girl said you need concealer. I said but Jamie said you don't need anything else that this covers everything. I said she takes her makeup off and shows how it covers everything. The girl told me that it does not cover everything and concealer IS needed. The only way it covered for me was WITH concealer. How can QVC and JAMIE get away with telling us that it covers EVERYTHING?

She demonstrates on the models and herself and it covers her issues. Maybe it depends on how dark the spots are.

@sparklestar They are not that dark, no where near as bad as her skin or the other models she uses. It did not cover at all. We tried a couple of different shades too.

That is odd. How do they do it on TV? Maybe trick photography LOL.

I asked the girl and she said she did not know. The only thing I can figure is that they use a LOT to cover their flaws or there is something else in what they are using. If you ever watch HSN Adrienne with signature A, when she is applying makeup the camera always pans away from her so yoiu can't really see what she is apply to her hand or brushes. Her products never work for me like they do on TV either.

Tried the cream. Didn't cover age spots. Plus! Very drying on my 58 yr old face. Honestly! Struggle is! Real finding makeup when your skin is sensitive and dry. Sent back Celebration Foundation, So wanted IT to work. Made my face itch and extremely dry. Open to any suggestions. TIA🌷

I really like the Celebration illumination powder, but it was not looking good in my 67 year old wrinkles. Figured out I was using to light a shade. I have combo to oily skin. It does not cover completly but pretty good.

I had same experience. It does not cover age spots, tried the concealer it was heavy and cracked, giving me wrinkles where I didn't have them.

I like Balance and Brighten Laura Geller's line. I find it natural, nondrying, and it creates a silky finish.

It amazes me how many of us, ( myself included ) buy the presentations, even after we see it on ourselves with our own eyes.

I can't explain what they do on air, but something 'ain't kosher'.

I've only seen demonstrations of the CC cream covering redness and minor blemishes. Anything more you need a concealer. My favorite is Laura Geller on that. I absolutely love the IT CC cream! It gives me the most flawless finish I've ever gotten from a foundation. Very light and feels like nothing on the skin. Love it!!

Is this the cc cream with the 50spf in it? It is my favorite foundation now! Interesting how some people like it and others do not. I find it has great coverage without looking like a mask....and it looks very natural. I mix the light and the medium...apply it with the brush.

I liked the feel of the It CC Cream but it did not cover the flaws like Jamie said it would.

So how are we to ever believe anything about products? I get tired of returning things.

I think it covers my freckles and dark spots. I will use it tomorrow and report back. My spots of hyper pigmentation aren't as visible now though since I started using PC products.

Jamie shows herself just using a small amount and she says this is all that is needed. I don't like a lot so that is why I was going to buy it. I may get it and try for a few days as I can return to ULTA if I don't like it.

I personally love this cc cream and yes it covers everything for me. I use three pumps so I get a full coverage on my skin. It dries in a few minutes. You can also use the celebration over it. Try this as this is the best line for makeup anywhere. and bonus is the 50 spf!!!!!

Jacie — Thu, 13 Oct 2016 12:43:41 GMT

I have used this for quite some time and find it covers everything for me. If I need more coverage I would maybe mix some with my Bye Bye Undereye and dab where needed.

But that would be a rarity for me. Love this stuff.

FYI-Might stockup! Loreal purchased IT cosmetics. From past experiences with companies that sold, Quality went out the window. Time will tell, Loreal owns several high end brands, Some better than others. Why can't Loreal be cruelty free?! IT cosmetics made in China. Decided need to research find makeup-> Made in America.
