Review: Lumene CC Cream #Medium (EN)

 

 

Hello beauties ❤

Everyone and their mothers is obsessed with Lumene’s CC cream, but it is really so good? Let’s find out 😊

I couldn’t miss giving this hyped product a try, literally I hadn’t read negative opinion about it. In the last year and half I don’t wear makeup that often and I also don’t wear heavy makeup so a nice toned face products is welcomed to my makeup collection…and routine 😊  

Lumene’s CC cream has light watery consistency and light coverage as well – it evens out my skintone, but it does not cover any spots or imperfections, so in case you have such you’ll definitely need some concealer.  You can easily apply the CC cream with just your fingertips, it’s so easy to apply and it does not require additional blending.  I hate having makeup on my hands so I always apply the CC cream with either foundation brush or beauty blender as I kind of prefer the second way because it gives me even more natural coverage. Application is flawless – formula does not set super-fast, so you can easily blend it, it does not stay spotty, it does not accentuate any dry areas on your face, it does not crease around my eyes or nose, it’s simply great!

The formula has arctic thermal water and arctic wild raspberry extract, it has SPF 20 (tip: always apply additional sunscreen!) and the packaging itself is light and compact. It contain the regular amount of 30 ml product and it’s made of more than 50% recycled materials.

I did some research and the color selection contains 10 shades, but I’ve never seen more than 3 available on the Bulgarian market: Light, Medium and Dark. I bought Medium – medium beige shade with neutral undertone. As reference I can point that Medium almost matches my #200 Rose Vanilla foundation Always Fabulous by Bourjois and for another reference #55 Golden Natural foundation by Max Factor Radiant Lift is darker and more yellow.

Medium is kind of adaptive to the skintone once applied, it does not oxides and due to the light coverage I think that even if the shade isn’t exact match for your skin you can easily correct this difference with some concealer or powder, which won’t work if this was high coverage foundation.

Finish is semi-matte, fresh and so natural – until now I haven’t tried a product that looks so natural once applied, which makes it a great option for using on daily bases. In real life you can barely tell I have something on my skin so it’s perfect if you are no makeup makeup fans.  Longevity is ok – keeping in mind the light coverage and formula, but as I said I set my CC cream with some powder on and it looks good on me for about 8 hours.

On my opinion Lumene’s CC cream is suitable for ladies that are looking for light coverage, natural finish and even skin tone, ladies that are into no makeup makeup looks. It’s nice option if you have dry or normal skin, although I have oily skin I don’t like heavy and matte foundations so with some powder on top I think that this CC cream is good for oily skin too and it’s my favorite to use on everyday bases. If you are looking for high coverage, matte finish and high longevity, then this Lumene CC cream is not for you J
