CC+ Cream: Choosing Your Formula, Shade, and Coverage
“CC cream” can sound like a lighter alternative to foundation, but formulas vary. IT Cosmetics CC+ Cream Original is sold as a full-coverage foundation. It is one of the products we have personally tested, and choosing the right version and shade is the first step.

Check which CC+ Cream you are buying
IT Cosmetics has more than one CC+ formula. This guide refers to the original CC+ Cream, rather than assuming every product in the range has the same finish. Read the listing for the formula, size, and shade before ordering.
Choose a shade in natural light
If possible, compare shades in person before buying. Think about both the depth of your skin tone and its undertone. A shade that looks close on a screen may look different when applied, so avoid relying only on the name or a photograph of someone else.
Start with a small amount
Because this is a full-coverage formula, you do not need to begin with a thick layer everywhere. Follow the product directions, blend carefully, and decide where you want more coverage. Look at the jawline and hairline as well as the center of your face.
Test it with the rest of your makeup
Your skin preparation, application tool, concealer, and powder can change the finish you see. Try the combination on a regular day before wearing it to a wedding, event, or photo shoot. Notice whether you like how it feels after a few hours.
Bring your preferences to your appointment
If you are booking professional makeup, tell your artist how much coverage you normally wear and what you like about your current products. You do not have to buy this cream before an MBT appointment. The most helpful starting point is a clear idea of the finish you want.
