Just when we had replaced more than half of our skin care products with a single magic jar (the BB cream), we were hit by another puzzling letter combination, with the promise that it was going to surprise us even more!

In 2013 the CC creams (a.k.a. complexion or color correctors) came almost as a natural consequence of the BB creams (a.k.a. beauty or blemish balms), and they created a beauty storm with their mission

to camouflage and fight redness and visible pores, hide skin imperfections, provide natural glow, offer sun and anti-aging protection and a moisturizing effect.

It was a matter of time before cosmetic companies boasted their own CC creams, and here is what we found out works best:

Chanel CC Cream Complete Correction Sunscreen Broad Spectrum SPF 30 fuses makeup and skin care in a spectacular way that only the French house can achieve. It

fights the external damaging factors (it contains Rejuvencia, a natural active ingredient), moisturizes (thanks to hyaluronic acid) and evens out dark spots and redness, diminishing pores. Its SPF 30 and PA+++ sun filters offer amazing sun protection and last, but not least, the cornflower extract soothes even the most sensitive skin. Something is telling us this is a must-try!
