Juice Beauty CC Cream Review



Stem Cellular Repair CC Cream

Juice Beauty - The Organic Solution


Stem Cellular Repair CC Cream, Natural Glow

I have been trying out this CC cream from Juice Beauty.  Juice Beauty makes products that contain natural ingredients.  You can find Juice Beauty products at Ulta.  I have been using this for a little over a week now.  The color I chose was natural glow.  This is a very sheer cream.  This will not cover any imperfections.  It gives my natural skin an even better look.  I love the fact that the sunscreen is not a chemical sunscreen (suncreen spf 30 Zinc Oxide) .  After a few minutes of applying it to my skin I see how it warms up to my skin shade and enhances it.  (This product did not oxidize on my skin at all) I then dust some of my Alima Pure satin matte foundation all over my face and my skin looks so natural.  I really like this cream.  Some say it gives a dewy finish but I did not find that to be the case.  It made my skin look very natural.  This would benefit those with normal to dry skin.  Like I said this will in no way cover any major imperfections.  If you have no major issues with your skin and you would like to enhance it and apply some sunscreen in the mean time this is perfect.  I also think that this would be a great first time makeup product for young girls just getting into wearing makeup.  It did not break me out at all.  With all the natural ingredients in this product I really think that this is going to be a benefit to my skin.  I moisturized my skin, applied Juice Beauty CC Cream and then dusted some Alima Pure Foundation over the top.  Instantly my skin looked beautiful and natural. 

Let me add that the smell of this product is not pleasant at all.  But after a few minutes of wear it, the smell did go away and I did not smell it at all.  I even asked my daughters if they smelled anything on my face and they both said no.

Here are the ingredients per Juice Beauty website:
Active Ingredient: Zinc Oxide 20%
Inactive Ingredients: Juice Beauty proprietary blend of fruit stem cells: apple buds, grape buds & lemon bark. Organic juices of pyrus malus (organic apple juice)*, vitis vinifera (organic white grape juice)*, aloe barbadensis (organic aloe leaf juice)*, cocos nucifera (organic coconut oil)*, caprylic/capric triglyceride, sorbitan stearate, ricinus communis (castor seed oil), polyglyceryl-10 laurate, magnesium sulfate, helianthus annuus (organic sunflower seed oil)*, simmondsia chinensis (organic jojoba seed oil)*, tocopherol (Vitamin E), magnesium ascorbyl phosphate (Vitamin C), sodium hyaluronate (vegetable hyaluronic acid), malus sylvestris (apple buds), vitis vinifera (grape buds) & citrus limonum (lemon bark), iron oxides, phenethyl alcohol, ethylhexylglycerin, citrus reticulata (mandarin) & citrus aurantium (petitgrain) pure essential oils.

Again, I really liked this product.
