Is this foundation? What is the difference between foundation and CC Cream?
Foundation comes in various forms (pressed powder, liquid, stick, etc) and typically provides maximum, full coverage while feeling heavy on the skin. The “CC” in CC Cream stands for “color correcting,” so it works to conceal and even out skin imperfections while feeling weightless on the skin. CC Cream is a multitasking formula that hydrates the skin (so no extra moisturizer is needed), has anti-aging properties, and provides SPF protection. Our Buildable Blur CC Cream with SPF 35 features color-adjusting micropigments to brighten and revive dull complexions while concealing redness, rosacea, discoloration, dark spots, pores, and fine lines. The creamy, lightweight formula is ideal for daily use allowing you to build your preferred coverage level similarly to foundation but it never feels heavy or cakey!
Is the SPF mineral or chemical based?
We use both mineral and chemical sunscreen in our CC cream. Under the guidance of our team of dermatologists and chemists, we developed Buildable Blur CC Cream with mineral and chemical sunscreens to ensure our CC cream is a product all skin tones and types can safely enjoy. Titanium Dioxide and Zinc Oxide (two ingredients in our CC cream) are wonderful sunscreen ingredients, but when they are the sole source of sun protection, they cast too strong of a white tone to the formula which makes it impossible to achieve deeper shades which is incredibly important to us as a company.
What is the wear time?
Our Buildable Blur CC Cream is a long-wearing formula that will last you all day! When paired with a primer and/or setting powder you'll get a flawless finish that lasts until you’re ready to remove your makeup.
What finish is this?
Our Buildable Blur CC Cream has a natural finish. If you’d like a more matte finish, try using it with the Filtered Effects Blurring Primer and/or Filtered Effects Soft Focus HD Setting Powder!
Will it clog my pores?
Our CC Cream is a lightweight, buildable formula powered by our key ingredient Flaxseed Extract to help soften + smooth skin with omega-3 proteins which help to improve skin texture and tone over time! Our high-performance ingredients are always formulated without parabens, phthalates, sulfates and synthetic fragrances to ensure they're safe for all skin types!
Is this formula for sensitive skin? Will it work with my skin type (oily/dry/combo)?
Our Buildable Blur CC Cream Broad Spectrum SPF 35 was created for all skin types and is safe and effective for those with sensitive skin. It’s formulated with flaxseed extract which will help control and absorb excess oil to reduce shine without drying out your skin. It's also packed with Vitamin C to give you an antioxidant boost every time you apply it and create a brighter, more youthful glow over time!
