I watched a youtube vid about comparing the CC and Foundation, sorry I can't remember who on yt. But she said she did not find any significant difference between the two as far as performance on the skin. She said if she had to choose it would be the CC because of the cost.

Kathleen Lights did a comparison of the two. She said they have the exact same wording on the back of both packages. The only difference she found was the scent.

I have been using the CC 50spf cream for almost 2 yrs. I bought the try me kit off the TV - BYE BYE Spf 50 foundation ++ other items $39.00 I did get roped into an autoship that I was unaware of = $ 154.00 foundation, powder, mascara, lipstick and concealer ( may be something else (? cannot remember). I was able to cancel it. I like to buy what I need in pieces rather than AS kits. I find the CC cream is more yellow based ( I am med) more emollient , spreads easily and a TM finish . This Bye Bye 50 spf Foundation ( in med also) is a little thicker , more coverage and no so yellow based which I prefer. I am not sensitive to these minor smells they have so I did not even notice . I at first wondered if they are the same but concluded they are not- slight difference in color, coverage and spreadability. Just like WEN from Guthy has a slight difference.

Am I getting this correctly then -- the one on the infomercial has no scent and the other one does??? I ask this because I have problems with fragrance in products. Thanks.

I haven't smelled the BBF myself. I don't know if there's NO scent - I just know the CC Cream is more citrus smelling.
Here are a couple more comparison reviews:

Thanks for this information. I, too, wanted to try the one on the informercial but already have the CC cream in Illumination, full coverage, and the new bronzer.
Also what stopped me from ordering from the infomercial is that the kit is NOT $39.95, that is just the first payment installement of 3!

Thanks for replying, I appreciate it. But now that I see that I was wrong about the price (another poster pointed it out), I will not be ordering. Too much money for me!
