REVIEW : Silkygirl Skin Perfect CC 2-Way Foundation

Price - MYR26.90
Where to buy - Guardian and Watsons
Size - 11g

We actually got this in Singapore, Isetan if not mistaken. However it is now also available in Malaysia. We have all heard of BB creams, and now the beauty industry has introduced CC creams. What does CC stand for? Color Control. CC creams aim to even out skin tones and control the tones as well whenever applied.



This Silkygirl product comes in four shades, 01 Light, 02 Nude, 03 Natural, and 04 Medium. We tried this out in shade 03 Natural. If you happen to come across this product in the store, how do you choose your colour. Narrow down your options to about two, and never choose a shade to white for your face, you do not want to have a white-off effect in pictures or even in person. The powder is supposed to be a colour close to your skin colour so it could even it out, not to cover over your skin. Its four shades come in two types of colours, one with yellow undertone and the other has a more pinkish tone. Depends on how your skin is choose the opposite to cover it up. It covers redness pretty well.

What we really like about this product, is it really works like a BB cream. Actually even better, because most creams still make you feel like you have an extra layer or moisturiser or or when you touch your skin you could feel it. However, with this CC powder, it feels matte on your skin and even in pictures bumps are less visible. Say bye to all the little craters on the surface on your skin. You could use a pore eraser to fill your pores out first then have this applied on top.

We are actually loving this product so much, we have been using it everyday. Not only does it control your skin tone, because of its powder base, it controls oil as well. You can even touch up easily on your makeup whenever it gets too hot or oily. You can easily pile on powder but again becareful that you don't end up with a white-off effect.




Packaging wise, nowadays beauty companies have probably figured out consumers do not prefer their sponges to be constantly sitting right above their powder. For hygiene purposes as well. Therefore with this product, there is a flap that separates the sponge from the powder. Each time you open it up, just take out the sponge and pull the flap up and there you have your powder. It also comes with a small mirror behind the lid. We would definitely recommend this product.

Verdict - Good product. Will recommend for use.

Rating - 4/5
