Review: {The Face Shop} Aura Color Control Cream

Hello lovelies! I'm back with a review on a cc cream! This is the first cc cream I own. I opted for the one from face shop because Dahye unnie on Youtube really love this product! You can find her channel here ^^.

So people say that CC creams are the new BB creams. It's like a skincare product that can be used as make up as well! Basically the concept is your skin but better kind of thing.

This particular cc cream comes in 2 shades. No.1 Bright Beige and No.2 Natural Beige.
The Shop assistant recommended Natural Beige so I got that one (:

Moving on to the review!

When your done using it you can even get a refill! I guess you can save money that way hehe

The top. It's really great that it has SPF30, PA++

So that was just the plain box and the actual product looks like this

The bottom! No.2 Natural Beige. You can push it out to put a new refill!

This is how it looks like when you open up! The mirror is protected by a film and you can peel it off to be able to use the mirror. They also provide a puff for you to use.

There will be sticker on top of the product to ensure the product doesn't spill during shipping and packing. Remove the sticker and push the plastic at the bottom for the actual product to come out.

When you remove the sticker it'll look like this.

You can see the product coming out from the tiny hole when you push the plastic button.

Blended! Actually there is a shadow there so it's not very accurate ><! But it does lighten the skin a little and gives a matte finish.

What The Face Shop Says:
"3-in-1 product!
Wrinkle Care + Whitening + Sun Block

* It gives brightening effect to the face!
* It's skin caring function enhances tone of skin!
* Makeup did in the morning lasts for 12 hours!
* Easy to use container at anywhere!
* Skin Care + Makeup! Easy Care! "

PROS
- Nice coverage

- Long lasting but not up to 12 hours. Maybe about 6-7 hours? Still pretty good!

- Buildable

- Does not enhance my dry spots!

- Has a little whitening effect that does not look fake.

- Nice scent.

- Has sun protection!

- Easy to carry around.

CONS
- A little bit pricey but it's worth it!!!

Overall rating: 5/5! It's a good product!

Repurchase?: Most likely, but I would love to try out other cc creams. Like maybe Banila co. or Tony Moly hehehe.


I might post a review of a mask tomorrow if i have time! Stay tuned!
