I do not feel the new Serum CC cream in the compact goes on as smoothly as they said it would.  I am using the brush and having a hard time smoothing it in.   I actually used the other CC cream in the compact today and felt it went on much better.  Now I am having a hard time deciding which one is the best for me.

 

What do you all think?????

How are you applying it? I havent tried mine. I just put it on the back of my hand with the brush. I think it will go on easier with a brush. Did you tap and swirl the brush in the compact. It turns liquid when you do that. I will try mine in the next couple of days.

I just tried mine for the first time today and love it! I've always been a fan of compact foundation. It goes on smoothly and evenly with the brush, and the coverage is buildable. It is the reason I purchased the TSV and I am very pleased! I still like the CC cream and the other compact foundation, too, so in my book this is another winner from Jaime!!

I wasn't sure about this TSV.  I wanted to try all of the items (except the moist. cream as I had tried that before, and returned it to Ulta....made me itch).  I have used the Serum Foundation in the compact maybe 5-6 times now and I have decided I really like it!  As a matter of fact, I have had two compliments on how I look since trying it.  Hmmmmm....I was surprised!  I swirl the brush lightly in the compact the buff buff buff it on my face. It is buildable and I like it very much.  I think it looks very natural.  I really like the brush too.  The eye cream is good.  I tried the moisturizer again and it didn't make me itch.  So this TSV is a keeper.  Now I will see how long this compact lasts.  The other compact foundation didn't last long at all.  I love the CC+ foundation and it is always my favorite.  Now I have two favorites!!

I already sent mine back and cancelled auto delivery because I did not think the foundation went on easy at all. The face cream was OK, the eye cream seemed to make my eyes water. The TSV was a disappointment to me. I will stick to the CC cream.

I tap and swirl and it goes on very smoothy. However, I find the brush is a dickens to get clean. My other brushes work well cleaning with Dr. Bronner but this brush seems to absorb so much of the foundation. In between washings, I use the IT brush cleaner but it doesn't come as clean as my other brushes. Maybe it's because of the white brushes that I can see the makeup easier.
