{REVIEW} STUDIO GEAR HYDRATING CC CREAM


Picture from www.studiogearcosmetics.com
 By now after reading my blog posts I am not really a make up /skincare expert but I do know when I use a product and it looks good I love to let everyone else know. I got try Studio Gear's new Hydrating CC Cream (color: wheat) for free compliments BrandBacker recently and it was a good experience. This was my first time trying out a CC Cream so I was excited to find out what it is good for. I first needed to understand the name 'CC' Cream, CC standing for Color Correcting or Color Control. Supposedly suppose to reduce redness and/or improve uneven skin tone.

I had to do my research so that I can know what to expect. Ofcourse visiting their website to see what the benefits are, which are stated below:


  • Protects:  SPF 20 protects the skin, while Hydra-Extend technology provides moisture for up to 72 hours.
  • Perfects:  Enjoy natural looking coverage while micro-encapsulated pigments perfects and fade dark spots and acne scarring.
  • Corrects:  Anti-aging and collagen building ingredients help minimize fine lines and wrinkles.
  • Hydrates:  Hydra-Extend technology provides up to 72 hours of continuous hydration.
  • Conceals:  Micro encapsulated pigments deliver a fresh dose of color that adapts to your own skin tone, creating the most natural looking coverage.
  • Smoothes:  Skin nourishing ingredients help to correct and maintain youthful complexion.
Studio Gear has stated their benefits and I needed to test it out to see whether or not they meet my par. I used Studio Gear CC Cream for 2 days and was delighted to see what my face looked like while using it on its own and when used under my bronzer (some days I look rather pale). 

I think the results speak visibly for its self. I looked more awake, my uneven skin tone was not visible and my face felt and looked moisturized but not oily. The moisture lasted even after washing my face at night almost as if there was an extra layer of protection. I was complimented on my radiant and confident look. I used so little from the tube and it smooths so easily and evenly over my skin. I was not disappointed and I am now looking into the other products carried by Studio Gear Cosmetics. 

Studio Gear has so much to offer other than their amazing Hydrating CC Cream.. Here is a little history on the company:

    1. Thanks that is sweet of you... I am used to wearing BB Creams also but this was better because my color tone can be a bit blotchy in some areas and it covered so well.
