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.

The new Glow Recipe Strawberry Smooth BHA + AHA Salicylic Acid Serum dropped at sephora.com just in time for the Spring Savings Event that starts on Friday! If you’re Rouge you’ll save 20% off your total with code SAVESPRING.

Like most Glow Recipe products this new Strawberry Smooth BHA + AHA Salicylic Acid Serum is making waves across social media. It’s a combination of AHA and BHA with an acid complex combination of 10%. It looks like one of the main fruit extracts used is strawberry which happens to be a great source of Vitamin C but which Glow Recipe promotes as a way to exfoliate and reduce excess oil and even out skin tone. There are other brightening ingredients here as well such as Azelaic Acid which is great to tame redness and even out skin tone as well as Niacinamide and even Glucosamine. Oddly the brightening ingredients seem to overpower the acids but I’m not complaining. There’s also Salicylic Acid and Hyaluronic Acid which may combat the dryness that Salicylic brings on.

The serum is meant for those with visible pores, textured skin, acne, and blemishes to create a clearer, smoother appearance. BHA/AHA treatments are becoming more and more common in the skincare world but I do fear for our skin’s barriers at times as people are really overusing acids lately. Nonetheless, Glow Recipe’s formula appears to be gentle enough but of course, that remains to be seen.

Glow Recipe Strawberry Smooth BHA + AHA Salicylic Acid Serum is available now at Sephora.
