How to Apply CC Cream for Natural Coverage

Apply CC cream like skincare first, then build coverage where you need it.

CC cream is for people who want to look like themselves but better, not like someone wearing makeup.

  1. Start with clean, moisturized skin. Wait five minutes after moisturizer before applying CC cream. This prevents pilling and helps the product blend seamlessly into your skin instead of sitting on top.
  2. Use the right amount. Start with half a pump or a pearl-sized amount for your entire face. CC creams are more pigmented than you think, and you can always add more.
  3. Apply in sections. Dot the cream on your forehead, cheeks, nose, and chin, then blend outward with clean fingers or a damp beauty sponge. Work in small sections to maintain that skincare-like finish.
  4. Build coverage strategically. Add a second thin layer only where you need more coverage. Press rather than rub to avoid disturbing the first layer.
