Bourjois' 123 Perfect CC Cream

Hello everyone! Last weekend, I picked up the Bourjois 123 Perfect CC Cream for just under the £10 mark. For those of you who do not know, CC generally stands for "colour correct", meaning that it addresses issues such as redness and those unsightly black bags. 

 This product provides you with light to medium coverage that looks very natural on the skin, perfect for day-to-day wear. I'd say it is fairly suitable for all skin types as it is neither matte nor dewy, however I do find that it sometimes clings to my dry patches (no one would ever notice though unless they were looking very closely!).

With this CC cream, I find that a little goes a long way. For the best results, squeeze a pea-sized amount out onto the back of your hand and dab a bit onto your forehead, nose, cheeks and chin. Then, with a make-up sponge/beauty blender, simply blend the product upwards and outwards in small circular motions.

When it comes to drugstore CC creams, lots of them look cheap and tacky, however, Bourjois has done an incredibly good job at packaging theirs to look very upmarket. The product lasts all day and feels comfortable on the skin. It comes in four different shades: Ivory, Light Beige, Beige and Bronze. 

Overall, I am really happy with this purchase and would definitely recommend it to anyone who, like me, is new to the world of make-up and just wants something that provides good coverage and gives a natural-looking finish. Let me know if you enjoyed this sort of post and whether or not you'd like to see more product reviews in the future!
