A'Pieu Nonco Teatree Tinted CC Cream Review

Hello :)

  Lately I have been experiencing some stress related breakouts and so I have updated my skin care routine to help control it. When I do have a particularly bad skin day I like to wear a light base that lets my skin breathe and then I just conceal more problematic areas. The product I have been using lately is the Nonco Teatree Tinted CC Cream from the brand A'Pieu. I purchased this product here from Jolse for $8.48 USD.
 
    This CC cream comes in a simple 30 ml tube with a twist off cap. The product has SPF 25/PA ++. This product contains 42% tea tree leaf water and 2% Centella asiatica extract. The ingredients are supposed to soothe skin as well as to provide mild exfoliation.

    The texture of this product is like a light lotion and it does not feel greasy at all on the skin. It smells like tea tree but I like this because it makes it feel more medicinal but maybe thats just me. This CC cream only comes in one shade which is pretty light but is also very sheer. This seems to me to be pretty typical of most CC creams thought. This allows more skin tones to be able to use this product but I think if you are darker than shade #23 it may make you look a little washed out. However, you could always use this under your regular makeup products or mix it in with another CC cream or BB cream to get the skin care benefits of the product without looking too pale.

     This product has very little coverage but I do feel that it helps even out some of my redness on my face. I do need to conceal blemishes and around my nose and under eye circles still. This CC cream does not irritate my skin or dry it out, I find it quite moisturizing and it has a bit of a dewy finish but nothing crazy. I usually set mine with powder since I find it wears away a little around my nose throughout the day. However, I have yet to find a product that does not do this on me to some extent.
 
    In the photos below you can see you how the CC cream helps with some of the minor redness on my hand and makes the tone a little more even but that it does not really cover the beauty mark at all. You can also see the shade of the product.

   I feel that this doesn't make a huge difference in my breakouts but that it does help. I feel like my skin can overall breathe a bit more and it does not break me out. I also notice breakouts clearing up a bit faster when I use this instead of my regular BB creams as well as reduced breakouts in general when I use this for extended periods of time. I am not so sure about the exfoliation benefits though.

  Overall I like this product. I like it for my light makeup or bad skin days and I think it does help a bit with minor breakouts. I do not think this is enough of an acne treatment on its own but I think it is a good supplement to a skincare routine that is already in place to improve breakouts. I think any skin type can use this product but it will obviously benefit irritated or acne prone skin the most. Have you tried anything from this brand? If you have let me know. :)

        What I liked: - Feels nice on the skin
                              - Helps with minor breakouts
                              - Lightweight
                              - Good price

What I didn't like: - Only comes in one shade - may look ashy on darker skin tones
                              - Unsure about exfoliation effect
