Review + Swatches : A'pieu Aurora Luminous CC Cream


Hi bubblies!
How's your day?
Hope you have a splendid time eveerrr! :D


Here is my review to one product that offering the trend of "CC CREAM".

What is CC Cream? What's the difference with BB Cream?
<< CC Cream is more like Color Correcting or Color Control Cream,
while BB Cream stands for Blemish Balm or Beauty Balm Cream >>

A'pieu is one from many Korean brand that may you rarely hear about. I also got this product to try on through my trusty online shop as a sponsored items.

And here is my full review about the product for been using it quite sometime now.
With trial and error while testing it out. Different period of time, technique for application &  on my oily skin type face.

 A'pieu Aurora Luminous CC Cream





I got mine in the shade NB 01


And unfortunately, this product also come in 2 shades only.
At first, I was confused to pick the right shades to me personally. And it's not much different between those 2 though ( especially through the webpage color scheme vs the reality ). #hais.
But, I was thinking to go with the NB instead. With the thought of NB stands for Neutral & CB for Cool as it would make my face look paler. haha. I'm just playing guessing games here! and hope it was right. #TryMyLuck #ngarangbebas :P :P




The Packaging
The packaging is quite nice. Nicely made, sturdy enough. Has a nice weight also. But, being too bulky from the shape if I want to restore this in my makeup purse I must say.

See? quite big like the size of my hand :/


 

It come with a concealer jar on top and there's a mirror inside the flip cover.



While being separate with the body is the CC Cream itself.



☆☆☆ The Concealer ☆☆☆
Texture-wise : It's quite nice. It's creamy, even feels runny when you touches them. Easy to blend. Lightweight feeling also.




Swatches :



The concealer performance is quite sheer & lightweight feeling like I said before. I would say it's more suited for the under eye area for it will not cake you up. The pinky tone also counter act the dark circle and works wonder as the brightening effect to it. But sadly, it won't cover any blemishes or my redness post acne mark as it goes on sheer as for the coverage.

See the picture below :

black arrow : where I saw you the before ( under the left eye ) & after ( under the right eye ) picture for the performance of the concealer as for the dark circle problem. << which is quite amayzeng for it! :D
red arrow : where it shows the not-so-covering redness from my post acne "monthly" mark that I got. #eugh

And about the longevity of the concealer itself, I can see it holds up pretty good job for not settling into fine lines as it "feels" like hydrate skin as well. Maybe because It's not on the dry side of texture and feels runny like water when you touches them. BUT, too sad it fades throughout the day because of that. Even I already use setting powder on top.



☆☆☆ The CC Cream ☆☆☆
Texture-wise : They have more of a whipped, light, fluffy feel.

To get into the product, you need to push it down.

and it will come out through the center of the circle.



Swatches :




It leaves a dewy finish, and have a strong fragrance scents. which I'm not a fan of. >,<"

Definitely the performance of the color correcting itself is instantly brighten, even WHITEN up my skin. I feel so pale and ghostly white after putting this onto my face.>,<" And the color won't turned or adjusted into my skin tone ( still leaving that white cast afterwards ), that's why I need to put and set it with face color powder on top.

About the longevity of the CC Cream itself, it also doesn't do a good job for me either. Felt like it's not sunken in to my skin, just sit there on top and opportunity is : slides from my face in a couple of hours. Yep.
Even when I already prime my face and use setting powder on top. Even tried using buffing brush as for application. or finger. Just the same.


All in all..
Well, I surely not recommend you to buy this. This product doesn't work for me, even though I tried to like it before. And now I even rarely reach it for my daily makeup. Exception for the concealer part, I still use it sometimes as a quick fix to my under eye area dark circle problem.
