First Impression: Rachel K cc cream

Rachel K cc cream
I think Rachel K is awesome. As in the woman not the brand. I only tried this cc cream, so I can't really say much about the brand. But the woman bring some glory to Singapore for "creating" the famous cc cream.

I am sorry to say this but I don't like this product. It's a thick beige color consistency. I find that with or without primer, it's still hard to blend into the skin. I use primer on half my face. I really don't like that kind of foundation as I do not like to tug on my skin. I find that it can be drying and it always flake. The main reason I don't like this, my pores around my nose area is very obvious.

The cream itself is quite light on my skin. I am a MAC NC30-35. So I bronze my hairline on my forehead as the flakiness of the cream and the lighter color just looks like I have dry scalp. Anyway the cream oxidize and it turn out to be the exact match for my skin. Well at least it looks good to me overall. Except the nose area which I really hate and very conscious about. In the end I remove around the nose and just use a powder to cover it.

I use this for 10 hours. It doesn't make me oily. But I don't really get oily around my cheek. The t-zone test is a fail coz it's a different product. So I can't say about the oil control. I just know that they state the end effect is flawless, non-oily and radiant. It also has a SPF of 35. Really a pity.
I really wish that it had work for me. But it doesn't. Oh well.

This is in the shade 201, creamy and a hint of light milky pink. I like that it is pretty, but the shade doesn't really suit me. What I like best is that they can engrave your name on the packaging. So it is pretty.

Beauty Uk Baked Blush

A red blush looks really intimidating on the box but I picked this up cause I want something different for my collection. It's just a cardboard box kind of packaging, secured with magnet, so it's really simple. It's quite big and like all baked product, it's dome in shape. So it's actually quite bulky. I wouldn't bring it for travel that's for sure. The color payoff is good, but instead of red it's more pink. You can use it sparingly and it will be lighter or you can pack on the color which will gives you a really bright pink. In fact, if lightly dust over your cheek it is more coral than pink. It has tiny specks of shimmer, but it doesn't show. I can't remember how much I bought this for but it wasn't expensive. It's not my favorite blush, but I find myself reaching for it a lot. So that's something isn't?
