Review and Swatches: L'Oreal Nude Magique Anti-Redness CC Cream

Hello!

Today's review is on the L'Oreal Nude Magique Anti-Redness CC cream..

I have been sorely disappointed with L'Oreal BB creams (hello, orange) but was hoping for some improvement with their redness correcting CC cream. Unfortunately, history repeated itself.









Here's the proof:

Initial application of L'Oreal Nude Magique Anti-Redness CC Cream

 Now, the initial application was a bit scary. The fact it's green is fine, it was that if you have a look in the middle, there's a neon-green streak which is what it looked like being spread around. That scared me!

Final application of L'Oreal Nude Magique Anti-Redness CC Cream

 It did settle down to an ever-more orange hue...In the above picture, it's not very well blended, deliberately because I wanted to show what a heavier application looked like. Needless to say, it's nowhere near my skin tone.

As for redness....my hand looks fairly pink there and this CC cream does cover that up...by making my hand look orange instead. Not ideal.

Cost: AUD$26.95. Ouch! That's expensive orangeness. 

Final Verdict: F
Over-priced, overly orange.
