Stila CC Color Correcting Cream review

Hi


I don't know about you but for me finding a great foundation and BB or cc cream is a never ending search.I am still on the hunt for the perfect every day  and special occasion full coverage one.I am trying a bunch of different cc creams and foundations and I have a week supply sample of each one because I don't want to spend money on the full size before I make sure that I love it.I will try each one for one week and at the end of the week I will review it for you.I will insert a picture of the full size for you also.
last week I tried stila color correcting cc cream.This cream comes in 40 ml (1.3 oz)tube .
It has Broad Spectrum SPF 20,and It come in 6 shades from fair to tan.It is paraben and oil free.

This is what the product claims:


This green-based formula color corrects upon application to reduce the appearance of  hyper pigmentation,while brightening skin and softening fine lines and wrinkles

  multitasking formula adapts to your skin tone for flawless, invisible coverage and 72 hours of continuous hydration.

 complexion is left brighter, more youthful-looking, and shielded from damaging environmental effects. 


I am mac NC 20 for reference and my shade in this cream is fair.I applied it on my face after moisturizer .I tried it with and without primer(benefit porefessional) .

These are my thoughts:



Stila CC Color Correcting Cream



This cream as you can see in the picture starts green and it blends to a shade very close to your skin tone.

It blends easily ,I applied it with my fingers and brush however I like the coverage and finish when it was applied with fingers better.

it gives a light to medium coverage


It gives light coverage but you can build it up to medium .It does seem better when it was applied over primer and it did not become oily or shiny with primer but without primer the finish is still Nice but oil did show up on the sides of my nose and my forehead a little through out the day but it was not too bad! I have an acne prone skin and it did not break me out.

The lasting power considering it is a cc cream is fairly good and I like this amount of coverage for every day makeup.Even though it is oil free but unlike some oil free face products that dry my skin specially during the cooler months it was very hydrating .It is very light weight and I like the fact that you can't feel it on your face! It does make your your skin look youthful and it has satin finish that gives a little bit of glow to the skin.In general I was very happy with this product!

Will I purchase the full size!? Possibly yes but I still have a ton of cc creams to try out!!
You can purchase it at sephora and the price is 57.00 CAD.
