Recently I have been looking for a foundation or a cream that would be light but give me good coverage. Sometimes I just don't want to use my everyday heavier foundations, so when I was taking a wander down the make up isle in Boots I thought I would check out Sleek Make up and found their CC Cream.
I like Sleek Make Up, I have a lot of their eye shadow palettes and of course, the Face Form contouring palette but I didn't realise they do a liquid foundation range. I was tempted by their actual foundation, the packaging was gorgeous but I found the lightest shade was too dark for me, then I spotted their CC Cream.
I'll be honest with you I don't really know what the differences are between, CC Creams and BB Creams and which one is better than the other however all I know is I like the look of this product. I used one of the testers on the back of my hand, I always go for the lightest shade they have which so happened to be called "fair" and I was pretty impressed.
This CC Cream blends incredibly well and gives a light amount of coverage, it almost has a blurring effect on my pores as well, which I'm not sure whether it's supposed to but it looks nice. I have quite badly scarred acne skin and my heavier foundations do well to cover the majority of the scars but I will say this does not cover them. To be honest though I wasn't expecting the CC Cream to do so. I literally just wanted this foundation to give me a little bit of coverage for when I'm not going anywhere important or popping to the shops. It seems to even everything out as well, it really does do the job I was hoping it would.
Have tried this CC Cream?
I think CC creams are a little bit thicker than a BB, closer to a foundation than a BB cream. I tend to like them too, they are much easier to blend and great when your in a hurry. I love the Bourjois one and also the Seventeen. I might have to pick this one up too!

DeleteI have heard so many good things about CC creams as they tend to be thicker than BB creams. Sleek does some really amazing products, I have currently been loving the Sleek Eyebrow Stylist x
