The foundation that can do a little bit of everything
Photo: Color-Correction+Creme on the left side, no makeup on the right side. This is my go-to, daily, and favorite liquid foundation. I have light skin, freckles, always forget to moisturize, never wear sunblock, and as a result, have plenty of uneven skin tone and the occasional blemish. This CC Creme is a life saver for someone that wants a product that can do a little bit of everything. The CC foundation is amazing for the price and quantity you receive. I do not use this sparingly, literally covering my face, jawline, under eye, and eyelids every morning and one tube lasts me about two months. A little bit really goes a long way. Though for full coverage I have found a brush works best, it's very easy to apply with a sponge, and by fingertip seems the better method for trouble areas. The foundation is medium in weight, not sheer, blends freckles on a first coat, and covers red blemishes with a second layer. One extra bonus is that the product includes sunscreen, incorporating sorely needed coverage into my routine that I otherwise tend to forget. On the skin, it feels like a water-based creme, has a matte finish, and a nearly imperceptible plastic smell. It does not feel nor look wet, but if rubbed right after application, it transfers easily. I work indoors and this foundation tends to last about 8 hours before needing to be retouched. I use it to blend freckles, as sunscreen, to smooth over fine lines, hide under-eye circles, cover blemishes, and as eyelid primer. After a full day of wear, this product is simple to clean off with warm water and soap. That said, I'm terrible about removing makeup before bed, fall asleep with this on all the time, and it doesn't cause me to breakout. It doesn't clog my pores either even though that is a problem I have with almost every other skincare product. In fact, I've never had any issues with this, or any Physicians Formula products, in regard to skin irritation. All around, this is an amazing product for someone looking for a 1-tube-does-it-all foundation that is fairly inexpensive, lasts forever, and readily available at the local drugstore.
