Review on 🌈 Almay Smart Shade CC Cream, Light to Medium Coverage by Carri Taylor

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Not - it accentuates uneven textures

I really wanted to like this. I usually love Almay products but this one just doesn't fit with the rest of their line. Ever since they discontinued their Smart Shade/Smart Balance product (which is pretty darn cool) I've been trying to find a replacement. It's not like this. My skin is a combination of some dry and oily spots and this product just brings out all the ugly spots I'm trying to hide. If your skin texture is good and you're just trying to balance the color, this might work for you. However, if you have texture issues (dry patches, enlarged pores, oily skin causing the product to slide) skip this step. It already looks bad after application and becomes more and more uneven and blotchy as the day goes on. My skin looks better with regular powder than with this product. I give two stars because my skin is very sensitive and I didn't have any acne.

Pros
  • Available in 3 universal shades to match skin tone
Cons
  • Works Speed
