It Cosmetics CC cream or Dr Jart Premium Beauty Balm?

I tried both and they both look pretty similar on my skin so confused and need your help.

Which one you like better please??

 

I have Combination but dehydrated skin, medium to medium-tan skin with yellow undertones. Looking for light to medium coverage, natural look.

@CC3616 yes I noticed that if I do not moisturize and prep well, IT cosmetics one actually accentuated fine line that weren't even there before. Also, I read on beautypedia that IT CC cream has photo sensitive citrus oils so I am leaning towards Dr. Jart now.

Re: It Cosmetics CC cream or Dr Jart Premium Beauty Balm?

I have very dry skin and use both, I prefer the dr jart. The IT cakes and flakes much easier when my skin is very dry even if I mix in a little oil before application and also is a little bit heavier feeling than the dr jart. I also feel I get a healthier, more glowy look with the dr. jart than the IT. I think IT has a little more coverage if that's what you're going for, but personally I don't need that. @naturalooks15

I have combo skin and love how the Dr Jart Premium BB balm works for me. I have never tried the It CC cream, so I can't give a comparison.  I do have medium skin tone and the light/medium works great and gives such a nice canvas alone or with foundation. I hope this helps and you can find which one works for you.

Thanks @kikyochan 

 

I tried "Medium to Deep" and it was looking ok on me or maybe I should try mixing two shades as neither is looking as good as the foundation colors I tried .

For IT Cosmetic, I'd probably have to mix Medium & Medium Tan.

I like them both, but IT cosmetics cc cream feels more hydrating

Re: RE: It Cosmetics CC cream or Dr Jart Premium Beauty Balm?

Other than the hydration, which one has more beneficial ingredients. These two seem to come very close and quite talked about. 

Re: RE: It Cosmetics CC cream or Dr Jart Premium Beauty Balm?

I'm not a skin care ingredients expert, but IT cosmetics contains collagen peptides, niacin, antioxidants. It even has snail secretion filtrate ( I personally always find snail slime disgusting sounding, its really popular in South Korea and suppose to contain peptides/glycolic acids/ etc thats really beneficial for skin. I've only used a couple of things with snail slime and haven't found it too helpful, then again I've only used a couple of products with snail slime in it)

Dr Jart BB cream has peptides, arbutin ( I've used product from Ordinary with arbutin acid and it does brightens the skin)

One thing to keep in mind is that because Dr Jart is Korean, it means that there are not that many shades ( there's only two actually, korean ladies in Korea tends to like foundation/bb/cc creams slightly slighter than their natural skin color which is like the opposite of us in the US)

Both of them have physical suncreens rather than chemical which is great. 

In the end I still prefer IT cosmetics CC cream, because of more shade options ( I still have to mix two together), and my skin just feels nicer at the end of the day.
