My Experience with Lakme 9 To 5 Color Transform CC Cream – Bronze :

I am a big fan of CC/BB creams because I like go for such light coverage offered by them on a day to day basis. I loved the old Lakme CC cream a lot and Garnier BB Cream have been my all time favorite. Let’s see if this new CC Cream in town is here to stay..

Shade – Lakme Color Transform CC Cream in Bronze is a surprisingly a white colored cream with tiny granules which I feel are the color pigments because once blended they give color to the base and transform to a skin like shade. At first, I was surprised to find such a light shade as bronze but after blending it into the skin I absolutely loved how it camouflaged to my skin color.

Texture – This new Lakme CC Cream has a very light creamy texture with fine granules which is very-very different from the old version. The cream blends in beautifully into the skin as the granules dissolves to give the color. I really love how light and comfortable on skin.

Finish– It gives a beautiful soft matte finish to my skin which I prefer in hot-humid days. Though, for winters I will prefer to use it over a good moisturizer so that my skin looks healthy and hydrated. The formula take a minute to color transform to the skin color but I love how natural it looks.

Coverage – I don’t expect CC creams to deliver a medium to full coverage. And this one also just provides a very sheer-light coverage. It might not be able to hide pigmentation marks or dark circles but it can still give an even looking skin by hiding light blemishes and acne scars. It instantly brightens up my complexion giving a nice clean look to my skin.

Staying Power – The staying power is pretty decent. As it is such a light weight formula I don’t actually realize when it’s gone from my skin. But as soon as skin starts getting oily it’s gone. It lasts easily for 4-5 hours on my dry skin but for oily it might last lesser. So, set it with powder to extend its stay on skin.

Fragrance– I am in love with the scent of it. The fragrance is absolutely different from the old one and its so enticing and beautiful with some sweet fruity notes.

Shade selection –There are only 2 shades available which is a bummer as the lighter shade Beige is way too light and will work only for fair skinned girls. Bronze is the shade that will work for most of the Indian skin tones between NC 35- NC 40. I am afraid that duskier beauties wont be able to find a good match for their skintone.

PS:

• I love that it doesn’t transfer to my phone screen or anything that comes closer to my face like Garnier BB Cream
• Should be applied on a well-moisturized face for dry skin or it will look patchy and stick to dry patches on face.

Old Lakme Complexion Care CC Cream Vs New Lakme Color Transform CC Cream

1. Old Lakme CC Cream is packed in peachy tube with silver cap while New Lakme Color Transform CC Cream is packed in a peachy ombre tube with rose gold cap.

2. Old Lakme CC Cream is a straight up beige toned cream while this New Lakme Color Transform CC Cream is white colored base with colored pigments infused as granules

3. Old Lakme CC Cream is more hydrating and offers better coverage than this New Lakme Color Transform CC Cream

4. Old Lakme CC Cream lasted longer on me than New Lakme Color Transform CC Cream

Recommendation: Lakme 9 To 5Color Transform CC Cream is nice light weight CC cream for a daily no makeup-makeup look. I really liked the concept behind the formula where the color pigments will dissolve on blending, matching to the color of your skin. Owing to my dry skin, I will need a moisturizer underneath in winters but if you have oily skin you will love it’s soft matte finish. I am in love its gorgeous fragrance and it’s packaging. However, I would have loved it even more had it provided more coverage and lasted a little longer. Also, Bronze is the shade that will match to most of the Indian skin tones. I wish Lakme had come up with more shades in the range. Overall, good option for light-coverage on day to day basis especially for the price but that really depends on what are your priorities.
