Personally, I have an uneven skin tone and experience the most redness across my cheeks, nose and chin. However, since it feels a lot lighter than foundation and even BB Cream, I think for summer I can get away with just using CC Cream with a little bit of concealer and powder. For someone who has extremely dry skin on the cheek area, it is not enough as a moisturizer. However after applying moisturizer, it applies very smoothly.It definitely brightens up any dull areas on your face and helps minimize pores in photos so I would say this is a great makeup base for those who wear foundation or BB Cream or alone for those fortunate enough to have great skin!
