Before using Avon's CC cream my skin felt a bit dull. After using the CC cream my skin had this natural looking glow to it. With my skin feeling less dull my mood automatically improved. Another improvement I noticed is that the red marks around my nose started to get lighter and were less noticeable. With the CC cream being so light it felt as if I wasn't wearing any makeup at all. Dark marks around my eyes seem much lighter. This cream is definitely a product that I would add to my shopping list and continue to use and recommend to my friends.
