According to Palmer's, this formula provides 8 essential benefits: 

1. Helps even skin tone
2. Brightens appearance
3. Primes skin for makeup application 
4. Moisturises and hydrates
5. Provides sun protection 
6. Conceals minor skin imperfections 
7. Aids in reducing the appearance of redness
8. Aids in reducing the appearance of visible pores

I have enjoyed using this CC Cream, It's not a full coverage makeup (obviously), but does provide a tint to the face which glides over minor imperfections. It does provide the skin with some moisture and hydration, not enough for me to go without my daily moisturiser under though, but I find that it does keep things evened out throughout the day without getting oily or greasy, which I find to be perfect to use as a day to day base for my foundation. The texture is slightly stiff at first, and I find that you really need to put effort into blending the product out, to make sure you don't end up looking patchy, the product also dries quite quickly which means you only have a limited time to work with it. After application, the product feels "sticky", but this only lasts for a few seconds or so. After the product has completely dried and settled into the skin, the skin feels very smooth and soft, the skin does appear to be more brighter and vibrant (which has to be my favourite thing about this CC Cream). It doesn't seem to reduce or do much at all to either conceal or reduce the appearance of redness on my skin, there is no significant change to the appearance of my pores either.

 No irritations, allergic reactions or breakouts (thank goodness, something in other Palmer's products does tend to break me out). 

In all, I have enjoyed using this product and I will be re-purchusing this once more, but that's not say that my search for the perfect CC Cream is over just yet.
