We've all heard about BB creams, now it's the turn of CC.
What are they?
Colour Corrector Creams. You know, those red patches, uneven skin tone, and pigment spots that make us wish we had Photoshop in our handbags instead of just a bag of make-up. I have a scar just under my nose that's pretty visible, and I like to use a blur cream there to fade it out a little (Rosehip oil helps greatly too).
Last month I gave Lavera 8 in 1 CC cream a try. I found it a little bit drying to be honest, but a decent moisturiser corrected that. Otherwise it did a good job on my scar area, and evened out the redness that appears after the first glass of wine, or a walk in the fresh air. Living in the sun, I'm more than happy with the SPF 6, but only wish it was higher. There's a slight plumping effect as promised, which in turn left my skin feeling firmer. It's anti-ageing - always a great thing.
Would I buy it again? Yes, but the colour is a little dark for lighter skin tones, although perfect for me. £19.90 for 30ml.
Secondly, I tried (well, the whole family had a go) at the new Lavera Organic Orange and Sea Buckthorn Natural Deodorant.
This was the stand out review winner for me this month. Green Tea and Witch Hazel act as the deodorizer agents, and it kept us dry and smelling as fresh as daisies. A pump spray- so no choking aerosol fumes - and a pretty glass bottle. The scent is fresh and fruity, light and not overpowering, this formula WORKS. It smells a little bit like marmalade :)
At just £9.95 it's a steal, it lasts ages, and I cannot wait to try out the other scents in the range. Suitable for everyone, it's neither girly nor masculine, it's just fresh and clean. Love, love, love.
