IT Cosmetics CC+ Radiance Palette | Review and Swatches

Press Sample (Affiliate Links)

I am so late to the party about IT Cosmetics, and despite the fact that my blogging friends have been loving and using this line for what seems to be an eternity– I have only just now entered the fold. From the moment that I first opened the IT Cosmetics CC+ Radiance Palette I was taken by its beauty, but it was touching the ultra finely milled texture that I immediately saw why everyone effusively gushes over the line.
CC+ Radiance Palette is described as "the one stop beauty shop for color correcting, brightening, bronzing, and blushing."  It is essentially an all-in-one color correcting palette with a gorgeous brightening powder, a matte blush and matte bronzer. The powders in the CC+ Radiance Palette are filled with antioxidant rich anti-aging skincare ingredients that benefit the skin– while making it look perfected. It enhances, color corrects and evens-out the skin tone while giving it a unmistakable radiance. 
Color Correcting CC+ Brightening Powder, CC+ Matte Blush & CC+ Matte Bronzer

According to IT Cosmetics,

Each anti-aging powder includes color correcting pigments that enhance and even-out the appearance of your natural skin tone while adding the perfect sun-kissed bronze, the complexion brightening blush, and an all over-skin brightening radiance that will boost the warmth and radiance of your skin while blurring the look of fine lines and pores.

We believe that great makeup can give you great skin. CC+ Radiance Palette is infused with anti-aging ingredients and is formulated to do the work for you. CC+ Radiance Palette is talc-free and infused with anti-aging skin loving ingredients plus color correction technology to brighten and correct the appearance of your skin for your most beautiful skin ever! It’s for every woman who wants full coverage that looks and feels like her own skin! Every woman who wants a radiant, bright complexion with products that do the work for her! Every woman who wants cutting-edge anti-aging technology infused into high performing yet easy-to use products that help you look and feel your most beautiful!

CC+ Brightening Powder in Radiant Light (left) is a beige all-over powder that was specifically designed to blur the appearance of pores, to even out skin tone, and to impart an overall brightened and radiant effect. It is finely milled and silky smooth to the touch, and it effortlessly glides across the skin. It adds just a touch of warmth to the skin, but is otherwise almost imperceptible on my cool pale skin.

CC+ Blush Stain in Love (center): is a silky smooth matte blush is a lovely shade of coral. It is intensely pigmented, and therefore should be applied with a light hand. While it is designated as a matte blush, it is neither flat nor dull in appearance. It gives the skin a very natural flush and finish.

CC+ Matte Bronzer in Warmth (right): is a very smooth bronzing powder that effortlessly glides across the skin and deposits color evenly and beautifully. Unlike many bronzers that oxidize on my skin and morph into an unflattering shade of orange– this one does not. Like the blush, the bronzer is ultra pigmented and requires a light hand.

  1. I, too, have been wanting to try more It Cosmetics. I am a fan of their Bye Bye Redness colour correcting base as well as the IT brushes for ULTA, but I haven't tried as much of their colour cosmetics. :-) This looks stunning (and handy). :-)

  3. Oh and I'm so late to the party too lol. If it wasn't for my travel size Bye Bye Undereye from a monthly beauty box (ipsy I think), I still would be in the dark and wouldn't bother with it. But that concealer simply really is as amazing as everyone claims! So I'm kind of sold now ...
