This is a truely incredible product. I havent even used base since i was sent this product to review. Its such a natural, super easy blending CC CREAM and the shade was perfect match to my skin. I have seen huge changes in my skin. It glows, feels soft and supple and my acne marks are fading. I love the spf factor, an all year round must have!
I will definitely be purchasing this product again, as i am so impressed.
It comes in 9 shades, so theres one for everyone!
Hint: I applied this with a foundation brush.
Everyone has been complimenting me recently on my skin and how good it looks!
Thanks BB for allowing me the opportunity to review yet again another amazing AVON product!

For the purpose that it is made for, it is a good colour corrector, and hide blemishes well. Although I have noticed that to have an even complexion all round, which I think most women are finding difficult. It is not a foundation. It is just simply a colour corrector. When I had applied my foundation over it I had much better results than just using the CC cream alone. Overall it is a great product. Something I would advise women buying if they have uneven skin.

I wish i had something more positive to say but i have to be impartial and honest. I have not had a great experience with this cream as it is lacking in something as a moisturizer, i found it was not sufficient to moisturize my skin before base application and i had to use it in conjunction with my regular moisturizer. I was hoping it would be great for colour correcting as my skin is really in need of that in certain areas, but i have yet to see the results, although i am not giving up that easily. I will continue using it in the hopes that it just takes a couple uses before you see results

I was one of the lucky few to be chosen to review Avon's Avon Ideal Flawless Colour Corrector Cream.

I was quite excited about this as I have never used a CC or a BB cream because in all honesty I didn't know what exactly they were and what the difference was between them. I now regret not trying this out much sooner.

It is basically a tinted moisturiser with and SPF50 that helps hides flaws and over time evens your skin tone.

I found it to have a really pleasant smell as apposed to most foundations and moisturisers.

The cream is lightweight upon application and gives a light coverage on the first application, and a medium coverage on the second application.

It's great to use instead of a foundation as it does not become flaky, and after using it for a week I am happy to say my skin tone is more even and radiant.

The usual price is R159.95 for 30 ml, but is currently on special for R84.95.

I have attached photos of without the cream and with the cream applied that readers can compare the amount of coverage.

I don't use foundations as they usually make my skin oily and cause break outs, which is why I was a bit skeptical when it came to the CC cream, but it turned out to be pretty light and didn't make my skin oily in the slightest (which came as a great surprise). I love the ease with which it spreads, there is no need for pulling the skin and it is not making me feel like I have cake frosting all over my face. It also has a high SPF of 50, which is always a plus when it comes to sunny days.

Don't know how much you can see from pics, but it does make pores smaller and evens out the odd redness or unevenness of my skin. I use very little for each application, which also means that it is probably going to last me forever :)

My only gripe is that there are no instructions on how to use it on the packet. I wasn't sure if it is a before cream or after cream, before primer or after primer and I don't want to double cream myself in the morning, so had to experiment a bit. It looks as if, with my skin, it is best to go after a proper morning routine and use it after my morning cream.

I would recommend this product to my bffs and anyone else interested. Definite win.

I’ve heard so much about CC cream but never had the opportunity to try one. I was very pleased to receive a sample of the new Avon CC cream in Shell.

The CC cream is perfect for you if:
- you suffer from dark spots,
- uneven skin tone, and
- require sun protection.

The CC ream contains liquorice and Vitamin C to improve dullness and skin tone.


After the launch of their BB cream, I anticipated it’s CC sister wouldn’t be too far behind.
CC cream is short for Colour Corrector and Avon’s Ideal Flawless Skin loving CC promises to conceal flaws which is a must in todays age, corrects uneven skin tone, corrects spots and marks. A product that can do all that is worth it, wouldn't you agree???
I must first say how surprised I was when I started using the cc cream how light it was on my face and how colour correcting is really was. My favourite part is the SPF 50 which protects my skin from the weather.


When I first tried this, I applied it using my clean fingertips as I felt that was the best way to blend it. I will say I really liked the finish. It didn’t feel sticky or tacky to touch afterwards like some CC creams can, it just sat nicely on the skin. This product has an SPF of 50, making this the ideal product to take away on holiday with you, or just keep in your bag on the go.

Overall, I would recommend you try this product . This would make a nice sun protectant during the day whilst evening out your skin tone at the same time, if you aren’t prone to problem skin.


So go on ladies give it a try...it's worth it!!!

I've now tried and tested Avons CC Cream and I'm really impressed with the results. I think I like it even more than the Avon BB cream which I've been using up to now.

Reasons are as follows:
-The colour corrector cream is more suitable to my skin mainly because it helps cover my pigmentation in my skin since I frequently suffer from flare-ups which is sometimes embarrassing but human ;-)

-It contains a high SPF 50 which means I get added protection when going out in the sun! Hey, bring on summer people.. I`m so ready to look and feel amazing!

-The CC Cream comes in 9 shades so there's basically a tone for every skin tone, ranging from dark, medium to lighter colours. Shades include: Sable, Caramel, Nutmeg (Dark), Soft Honey, Medium Beige (Medium), Natural Beige, Nude, Shell (The colour I tested), Ivory (Lighter Shades).

The Colour Corrector Cream makes for easy application. I dab a few dots on my cheeks, forehead and chin, and while using my foundation brush, blend in the dots smoothing it out. No need to apply any additional powders to take on the oil, since there are no oily concerns to be worried about! ;-)

The CC Cream comes in a 30 ml sized tube, but its really long lasting since I`ve been using it for two weeks now and my tube is still full. I love it- cause I don't need to keep re-applying it one application per day is really all you need.


*The colour I used: Shell

-Something I had also noticed unlike other creams I`ve been using, this CC cream makes my skin glow as soon as I apply it, without causing it to shine though. ;-)

I definitely wont be continuing to use my BB cream cause the CC cream has way more benefits and its more suitable for aged skin and since im moving towards 30 now...sssshhhh.. i better use it lol ;-)

This Avon Ideal Flawless CC Cream retails at only R84.95 so its really not a wallet buster..go out and get yours. Thanks Beauty Bulletin for the opportunity to try and test this Product!

This is my first time using a CC cream as I have always been using my trusty Garnier BB Cream. In my opinion, the AVON CC cream is very light on the skin and it has a lovely scent. It is also applied quickly which is useful when one is in a rush. It is thus not as heavy as a BB cream/foundation. It is true that it corrects colour, I have noticed. It also has a glittery application, and has SPF 50 inside. I did receive a few compliments the day I applied it too. But, it is a little expensive according to its small size (usually R160), and it is not really for complete coverage and would not be ideal if one had a spot or two.
