It Cosmetics CC+ Nude Glow Lightweight Foundation + Glow Serum with SPF 40 and Niacinamide ($42) is a new color-correcting medium coverage foundation with a glowy finish. This serum-like foundation contains an SPF 40 that provides coverage with a gorgeous radiant glow.

Hi, I’m the only person alive that hates glowy foundations. I’m sorry but I’m not sorry. I love me some It Cosmetics CC Cream but this is an easy skip for me. I’m not here for the glow as a girl with a round face. But hey, cool launch as right now glow foundations are having their moment in the spotlight.

This one combines the benefits of Niacinamide and Hyaluronic Acid. Although, I’ll be a downer and say they are fairly low on the ingredients list. I always love the idea of combining coverage and skincare into one product but in reality, I know I’m never happy with it.

That being said, I’m pretty sure It Cosmetics CC+ Nude Glow Lightweight Foundation + Glow Serum might just be a hit with those that love the original formula but wanted something radiant for Spring/Summer looks!

It Cosmetics CC+ Nude Glow Lightweight Foundation + Glow Serum with SPF 40 and Niacinamide is available now.

About the Muse

Isabella MuseIsabella is just an average everyday geeky girl who doesn’t blend her eyeshadow correctly, wears too much blush, and hopes she never finds her holy grail products because she likes the thrill of the chase so much. Her mission is to bring you super honest reviews on makeup, skincare, fragrance and all things beauty. She’s in no way an expert on the topic and she sure as hell isn’t a super model. But she’s passionate about makeup and is seeking like-minded individuals that like pina coladas, getting caught in the rain, and ones that enjoy spending hundreds of dollars at Sephora without feeling buyer’s remorse.

    I did pre order this from IT. I do like it and noticed my face looked more glowing after the first time I used it. I think it’s a different glow then their illumination one. I also have a round face but I like how it looked on me. Been following you for years ❤️

      Yay! Glad to hear it. I always feel like I look awful in glowy or radiant foundations! Maybe I need to try! Thanks Melissa! that means the world to me!

    Sounds kind of that abysmal fail for me, Saie. As if I’d primed with crisco. (Bad) words fail me. When TM sits like a grease blob on your face, big f no! This IT sounds very similar, at least in intent, if not ingredients. IT and I aren’t besties, anyway. Nope to this.

    I jumped on this after hearing it was a lighter coverage than the original. It is definitely more like a tinted moisturizer. I love the consistency and finish. I would not say it gives a glow but just a healthy hydrated look. However the shades are wonky as hell. I am usually light/med neutral. They had just gotten it at Sephora when I went in. They matched me to Light. It oxidizes like crazy. I will be returning. If I could get a good match I would love it but not feeling real confidant about that. I would love to hear about others experience with the shade matching.

      I always struggle with their shades. I’m typically a lighter medium as well but the undertone is too yellow or too pink for me. Thanks for the good word about the “hydrated look” versus a full on glow as I really hate radiant foundations! no bueno for me!

    I purchased this from IT and received it last week. Loved the original for years but looking for less coverage. I am very happy with this new version. It has a glow without looking sweaty. Perfect for this time of year but may look too dewy in summer. I got fair/light which is my usual shade and it felt it bit darker but with the light coverage it blended out really well. I suggest getting a sample from Sephora in your shade match and giving it a try.
