What is niacinamide? What does it do?
A formula with niacinamide, also known as vitamin B3, can help minimise the appearance of dark spots and pigmentation and can promote more even-toned, radiant-looking skin with ongoing use. Our patent pending formula contains 2% niacinamide, helps brighten skin and improve the overall quality of bare skin.
What are the differences between CC+ Nude Glow and CC+ Cream Original, Illumination and Oil-Free?
There are a few differences between CC+ Nude Glow and our other CC+ Creams.
CC+ Nude Glow has the same colour correcting power you love but with a different texture, level of coverage and finish than our other CC+ Creams. It’s a lightweight fluid that provides medium coverage with a healthy glow finish. It includes a built-in Brightening Glow Skincare base containing 2% niacinamide, hyaluronic acid and green tea extract. The benefits are focused on brightening the look of bare skin in 4 weeks and sun protection with SPF 40.
CC+ Cream Original is our fan favourite full-coverage CC Cream. It contains an anti-ageing base made with hydrolyzed collagen, peptides, niacinamide, antioxidants as well as SPF 50. The texture and finish are different, as it has a rich cream texture and natural finish.
CC+ Cream Oil Free is our oil-reducing, full-coverage CC Cream. It contains an anti-ageing base made with charcoal, colloidal clay, tea tree extract, hydrolyzed collagen, peptides, niacinamide, hyaluronic acid, antioxidants as well as SPF 40. The texture and finish are different, as it reduces pores for a matte finish.

How to find your foundation shade:
Start by identifying your shade family: Fair, Light, Rich or Deep. Then identify your undertone by answering a few simple questions:
- Does silver jewellery compliment your skin tone best? Do you notice hints of pink or red tones in your skin? If yes, then you have a cool undertone!
- Does gold jewellery compliment your skin tone best? Do you notice hints of yellow, peach or gold tones in your skin? If yes, then you have a warm undertone!
- Does both silver and gold jewellery compliment your skin tone best? Does your skin show a balance of pink and yellow tones? If yes, then you have a neutral undertone!
Now that you’ve identified your shade family and undertone, choose one or two shades with your undertone to try! Plus, if you already have Your Skin But Better Foundation + Skincare, you can use that shade as your guide.
What is the best foundation brush to use?
Our #7 Complexion Perfection brush pairs perfectly with CC+ Nude Glow!
How much should I use?
We recommend using 1-2 pumps of CC+ Nude Glow. You can use additional product as needed to build coverage in certain areas.
Can I wear sunscreen or moisturiser under it?
You can prime your skin with your favourite moisturiser but it's optional. Plus, SPF is already built in! CC+ Nude Glow contains SPF 40 which provides UVA/UVB broad-spectrum sun protection (when used as directed) and is a 90% skincare-based formula that provides instant and scientifically measured hydration for 24 hours and is infused with hyaluronic acid.
