Pur Minerals CC Cream Broad Spectrum SPF40

Pur CC Cream Review — Pur Minerals CC Cream Review

Pure CC Cream Broad Spectrum SPF40 is a color complexion correction cream. Complexion Correction products are very popular these days! Seems like everyone is in the market for a BB or a CC, or other alternatives to traditional foundation. What is special about a CC cream, is that while you’re wearing it, the product is also working to correct the flaws in your complextion. As an example, some product works to improve hyperpigmentation and/or discoloration while you wear the product.

Pur CC Cream Swatch, Medium — Pur Minerals CC Cream Swatch, Medium

In particular, the goal of this CC is to brighten the complexion, and improve radiance. Pur Minerals CC cream is a full coverage product, for sure. If you generally wear a tinted moisturizer, this will be a lot more coverage than you are used to. Also worth mentioning is that this product runs on the light side. I’m a pretty pale person, but have been wearing the shade “medium” which you can see swatched above, with much success. So if you generally consider yourself to have a medium complexion I think you might want to steer toward a shade darker, to ensure you get a good match.

Retail price is $38. Click HERE to buy yours at PurMinerals.com.

It’s a great choice for women who want to try the orange makeup trend, but are gun-shy when they wear vivid matte versions of orange on the lips.
