Too orange for me.....
I really wanted to like this since it was branded as "Number 1 Bestselling CC Cream." I was highly disappointed. The packaging is super neat and beautiful but when I applied this on, it was more brownish-orange than I expected. I bought the light-medium shade too. It also didn't provide as much coverage as I wanted it too. It looks like a tinted moisturizer but the color barely shows up but leaves...read more orangey-brown patchy spots on my face. I like the thick texture of this and the lightweightedness of this product but I had to return this since this was pretty pricey at $20 and since it wasn't my shade, I wasn't planning to use this after one time of trying this on.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 4 of 4 people said helpful

Too Sheer for coverage
This is the first time I'm trying a CC cream and I guess it's not what I was expecting :p It is way too sheer to cover up any skin discolorations. I have to put concealer on top for full coverage. It is, however, a decent tinted moisturizer, I would say. Nicely scented also.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Light weight buildable coverage!
I was honored to be a participant in the Olay CC Cream- Total Effects Tone Correcting Moisturizer review program. I am a fan of Olay products and have used them in the past. I was very pleasantly surprised with the CC cream and will be a long time user. The clear bottle showcases the twists of tint, moisturizer and serum. A little bit goes a LONG way! It is definitely worth the investment. ...read more At first application, I was surprised at how moisturizing and light weight this product is. It feels as if you are applying a light gel type product. About a pea size amount is more than enough to provide full coverage of your face and neck. It feels like it is going on clear, but once applied, the dark spots seem faded and the tone of my skin seemed to bee more smooth and my age spots were delightfully covered. With the light weight product, you can build coverage to your desired level. I found that two applications gave a very full coverage without the heavy feeling you get from a BB cream or regular foundation. It felt like my natural skin, but smoother tone and soft to the touch. This product has a nearly non-detectable fragrance. You can apply it directly with your fingers without leaving a film of foundation on your hands. I imagine it could also be applied using a sponge or a foundation brush, but I found that applying it with clean fingers, I was able to achieve the full coverage effect that I wanted. I will continue to use this product as my dark spots/age spots seem to have decreased and the tone of my skin is much more even. I rated this product an 8 out of 10 only because it calls for reapplication every 2 hours when in the sun. Over all I love the Olay CC total effects tone correcting moisturizer with spf 15 sunscreen. I look forward to the tone correcting effects it will give me with long term use. I definitely recommend this to any person who is looking for a high quality light weight coverage without the heavy feeling of a foundation!This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 3 of 3 people said helpful
