As you can see This is what Marcelle cc cream claims:
- Corrects and helps prevents the appearance of dark spots and imperfections
- Offers complete coverage
- Even out skin tone and texture
- Controls shine
- Allows long wear hold for lasting perfection
- Reduce fine lines and wrinkles revers the signs of aging
- Favours and improves skin elasticity
- Protect skin from environmental stressors
- Offers immediate and intense hydrating benefits
- Soothes and calms dry/damaged skin
It has creamy but not too heavy texture and comes in 2 shades light to medium and medium to dark.My shade is light to medium.
Here is my thoughts:
I apply it with my fingers then I go over my face with a buffing brush like most cc or BB creams.It applies and blends nicely and provides a medium coverage.It has semi matte finish. It smooths out the pores and imperfections and Evens out the tone and texture up to a decent degree however It does not give a flawless finish like a full coverage foundation,But it works well for me because As I mentioned it before I don't like a flawless full coverage!

The cream claims to give an immediate and intense hydrating but I feel it is a bit drying for me and I have to apply a good moisturiser underneath.
It stays nice for a good portion of the day (almost 8 to 10 hrs) and I have not noticed any oil break through or any shiny zone appears on my face through out the day,even thought I did not apply primer prior to the cream or any powder after.
As for the anti aging effects I can not say if it does what it claims or not because one week is not enough to see any changes however I have to say that I am not a big believer of anti aging effects for any cc or BB cream!
I consider them a tinted moisturiser or a light foundation with SPF with some hydration!
In conclusion I like this cc cream enough to use it up specially for warmer seasons since it has very little hydration and also the fact that it controls the oil and last fairly long make it suitable for warmer weather in my opinion.
You can purchase Marcelle product from most drugstores in Canada or on line.The price is 26 to 29 CAD depend on the store.
I hope this review was helpful, Thanks for visiting .I would love to read about your experience with this cream,Please leave a comment and have a pleasant day! ♥ ♥
