Comparison of It Cosmetics Bye Bye Foundations

Here’s a link to a good YouTube video comparing the It Cosmetics Bye Bye Foundations from Beauty Guru “HotandFlashy”: https://youtu.be/Ac9BOG8T8O8

Re: Comparison of It Cosmetics Bye Bye Foundations

I tried the Bye Bye Foundation and sadly, I didn’t like it. Very heavy, seemed to make my skin look dry and very, very orange. Even my DH asked what was on my face and the word Oompa Loompa was used. I’ll stick with the CC Crream.😊

Thanks for the link to Angie Hot & Flashy's youtube video. She's very thorough in her side by side comparisons of the original CC cream and the "new" foundation. I think the foundation without any setting powder looked terrible on her and showed all the texture like enlarged pores. The CC cream wasn't a whole lot better on her either. I think for me that a long wearing product whether it's a CC cream or a foundation isn't for me. I prefer to re-do my foundation if it looks like I need it rather than put up with flaking or patchy wear later on in the day.

I  have the original IT Cosmetics CC cream in the medium, light, and fair shades and I mainly use light but also mix light and medium and use the fair under my eyes as a concealer. It's not perfect but it's doable.

I've never viewed HotAndFlashy before, but I took a look last night.

 

I really couldn't relate to her because she's got the most beautiful skin and bone structure, like a model. She's younger than me, and up close you couldn't see a pore on her face.

 

I use the IT CC cream and I'm happy with it. I just wish I could buy another shade to make it perfect, since they have so many more shades now, but I can't justify spending big bucks on another one when mine is almost full. I guess I could blend them, but I don't know if that would work and I wouldn't know which shade to order, being I now have Medium.

 

Any ideas?

Yes, you can mix shades of the CC creams. I frequently mix medium and light. I squirt a dollop of each color on to the back of my hand and mix it and apply it to my face. If you are near a Sephora you can get a free sample of the color you want to try by asking the beauty advisor for one. They also sell travel size CC creams but only in light and medium. Macy's also has the travel size IT Cosmetics CC cream too and maybe Ulta as well.
