In love with Erborian

You remember I told you how much I love shopping at Ici Paris XL? Well, this is one of the reasons :) This is the only place I know (next to &Other Stories now recently opened in Antwerp and opening in BXL) they sell the brand in Belgium. They offer a wide range of Korean skincare. My first Erborian product was the BB cream during the period the BB creams started popping out of the ground and I was looking for a decent one.  

But then all of a sudden, I received a great sample of the Estée Lauder CC Cream and saw Erborian also had a good CC cream, so why not try it out?

Of course, this product promises to do it all. But what does it really do? This is what the Erborian website says:

“Creme HD a la Centella Asiatica by Erborian is the first ‘high definition’ radiance skin perfector and treatment in one, made in Korea. This ultra-fine texture is concentrated in CC pigments, a new generation of ‘Colour Controlling’ pigments. These high-tech pigments melt on the skin, to reveal luminous complexion, freshness and radiance. Enriched in Centella Asiatica, a botanical active from the Korean pharmacopea, CC Creme HD a la Centella Asiatica prevents the first signs of ageing, moisturises, enhances your skin and helps diminish imperfections. Your skin is luminous, radiant, more perfect, simply and naturally. Apply in thin layer like your daily moisturizer, before makeup. “

I love the fact that it diminishes imperfections but that it's just a daily moisturizer. So no foundation! Because BB creams can really feel like a foundation and sometimes I feel too covered up. 

When putting on this "cream", my face really looks more illuminated and not oily. The only thing I should tell you is that the colour it leaves behind is quite yellow. But because my skintone is quite yellow, it's perfect for me. 

When blending the product on my hand, you can see a slight difference of colour so that's good. You do see my hand is more egalised and more illuminated. 

I think this product is really worth its price. That's why I bought the Erborian CC cream instead of the Estee Lauder CC cream. For a young woman, the Estee Lauder is a bit too expensive I think... 

You can buy this CC cream at Ici Paris XL for € 39,95 (45ml). There's also a smaller size available for €16,55 (15ml)
