The CC+ eye is the CC+ in a different package and the powder is really celebration foundation in silver packaging with a new name. The ingredients in both are exactly the same. Jamie Kern and QVC must think we all are stupid.

The CC eye is most definitely NOT the same. It is thinner and has some light diffusing qualities. The new powder compact isn't the same either. It is lighter. Not a full coverage foundation.

Ludog, did you read the ingredient lists? They are exactly the same ingredients given in the same order. If I bake 2 cakes using the exact ingredients in the exact amounts stated in the recipe I will be making the same cake.

If you bake two cakes and use different amounts of the same ingredients your cake will be different. I applied both products today and they are different. Just saying.

The eye product is not the same at all. The BBUE is much denser and drier. The color is different in the medium in both products. THe youtube reviews I saw said the same. Coach glitter did a side by side comparison and the consistency is totally different.

The finishing powder is much sheerer and lighter than the celebration foundation too. I have seen other posts saying they are the same. They are nothing alike.

The CC foundation is the same product, just a different delivery system.

It hasnt occurred to anyone that Q posted the wrong ingredient decks? If you compare the products side by side you wouldnt say the concealer is the same at all.

Thank you. My kit is on my doorstep waiting for me to see for myself. I think It Cosmetics is a very reputable company and I would find it hard to believe they would just repackage something and try to fool anyone.

I really don't want to arguementitive but the ingredients are not in different amounts. According to the packaging the 1st ingredient is is the highest concentration in the product, the 2nd is the 2nd highest amount etc so if you look at the ingredient list for both, you will see the exact same quantities listed in the exact same amounts. If it was made differently you would see the same ingredients listed in a different order. These ingredients are in the exact same order. And the celebration can go on differently depending on the brush you use.

look at them with your own eyes, and compare. They arent the same. I have both the celebration foundation in 2 colors and BBUE. Comparing them live and in person they are not the same.

More conspiracy theories than facts around here. This company makes millions, what possible reason would they risk that by lying about this?

I think the posters here are saying that the eye product is the same as the CC cream, not BBUE.

Thank you suzyQ3! I still dont believe it, but you are probably right. I have seen a bunch of posts saying the powder is the same as the foundation, too.

I just cant see such a successful reputable company doing that. I like the new concealer, used it this morning. It seems to be a similar consistency to the CC foundation, but I highly doubt its exactly the same.

What possible reason would they lie about it? They have mega sales, arent struggling to make money, so what motive would they have?? Makes no sense at all.
