The Face Shop’s multi-tasking follow-up to the CC cream
The product: The Face Shop CC Cushion SPF50+ PA+++
What it is: The CC Cushion is a cushion compact that combines the benefits of CC cream with the versatility of cushion foundation. It has age-defying, brightening and anti-wrinkle properties and comes in two variants: Intense Cover for strong, flawless coverage, and Ultra Moist, which delivers all-day hydration for smooth, radiant skin.
CC Cushion has powerful treatment functions that go beyond simple hydration. The difference lies in the luxurious radiance you get after use — similar in feel and effect to applying serum. Blooming Coverage technology brightens your complexion and keeps blemishes and imperfections at bay.
Where to get it: Both are available at The Face Shop stores in three shades at P895 each and come with a free refill until Dec. 31, 2015.
