We all know that CC Creams are getting hot just right after the BB Creams boomed the make-up industry. I received many request to write a review of any cc creams so I decided to bought myself one from one of my favorite korean cosmetics online shop, Kkochipida. Mizon Correct Combo Cream (CC cream) was my first cc cream after I received the Etude House cc cream.
Will CC creams boom just like the popularity of bb creams? then continue reading for my thoughts regarding this Mizon Correct Combo Cream.
PRODUCT INFO:
BRAND: Mizon
NAME: Correct Combo Cream
NET Wt: 35ml / Tube type
BOUGHT PRICE: PHP585 ~ Approx. USD14.2
MADE in KOREA
MAIN INGREDIENTS:
Birch Sap Instead Of Water, Desert Plants, Argan Oil, Moringa Milk Plant, 40 Type Moisture Ingredients, Collagen, Elastin, and Ceramide
PACKAGING: There are two types of packaging of this Mizon Correct Combo Cream; the Twist-sealed container & Tube type. And obviously mine is the tube type one, I didn't actually know that there are tube type of this until I received my order. (Charm, didn't post a photo of this so I was expecting that it would be a twist type, LOL). Anyway, the tube is just like the usual bb cream tubes, it's white with black text and silver lining which makes it very simple yet elegant looking. You also have to pump it a few times before the cream comes out at first.
SWATCHES & VERDICT:
Mizon CC cream has a white cream color and will start to blend on your skin tone upon application. Yes, this one is self adjusting so you don't have to worry if you think that it might be too light on your skin. It also has this "dewy, healthy glow" finish but won't offer the coverage you might need to conceal or cover your flaws.
The texture is a little thinner in consistency, that makes it easy to apply, spread and absorbs into skin and leaves a lightweight coverage. Have you used jergens lotion? then they have quite the same smell.
Here's a photo when worn on face, it might not give you a good coverage however it really do correct skin problems like redness, darkness, dullness, or uneven skin tone. The only thing that I don't like about this cream is that- it doesn't have a decent staying power, it stays for only 2-2.5hours in this hot weather here in Philippines. So I suggest to use a primer/base first before applying this.
To give you a better reference on how it looks like when worn, I will leave you with my FOTD:
(please bear with my weird looking face LOL)
Overall Rating: 4/5
The missing one point goes to it's lack of staying power, it really is an issue to me because I am lazy to retouch time to time. Haha! Anyway, I recommend this Mizon CC cream to those who needs a correct skin problems but not to those who need coverage and concealing.
And that's all for today's review! I will do the comparison review of my two cc creams and my two favorite bb creams soon. So watch out for it, 'kay? :)
Thank you very much for reading! Bye-bye~
