The Best CC Creams for Women Over 50
Do you use CC creams? I’m not sure when I first became aware of them. When I first started wearing makeup as a teenager, all we looked for was a good foundation. Now it seems there’s a cream for everything! So what is a CC Cream? The term “is used by some brands to mean Color Control cream or Color Correcting cream, and some brands claim to reduce the appearance of skin redness .” Thank you, Wikipedia! Not sure where to start? I’ve put together a list of some of the best CC creams for women over 50.
The Best CC Creams for Women Over 50 -Under $20 Dollars
I love a good creamy compact. These come in two to a pack, one cream and one matte concealer, and include a “mushroom” head applicator. Wet the applicator, “stamp” the cream onto your face, and blend. Voila! Just $14 dollars.
ELF is always an inexpensive way to try a product. Their CC cream is available in 30 different skin tones and is just $15 dollars. It provides medium-to-full coverage, not too heavy and not too light. Worried about sun damage? Good news! This is formulated with SPF 30. I think that’s helpful, especially in the colder months when I don’t normally think about sunscreen.
The Best CC Creams for Women Over 50 -Under $40 Dollars
This CC cream is available in seven shades and not only includes sunscreen, but also moisturizer. The name “stem cellular” made me wonder if it included stem cells. I mean, it’s in the NAME. But when I look at the active ingredients, it just says things like aloe, coconut oil, and organic apple juice. Whew. It has a 4.3-star rating and is $35 dollars.
This lightweight tinted CC cream has an SPF of 50 and is available in 4 skin tones. It’s good for all skin types – oily, combination, sensitive, dry, and normal. I’ve tried several lightweight creams and have come to love them. If you use a heavy foundation, it might feel strange at first, but the coverage is great, and it doesn’t flake, etc.
I love the name of this – Hey, Honey Trick and Treat CC. This cream comes in 4 shades and has an SPF rating of 46. This is especially good for red skin and rosacea. It is infused with honey which is known for its antioxidant properties, and bee propolis, which is used to encourage new skin cells. The price is 42 dollars for 1 oz.
The Best CC Creams for Women Over 50 -Under $50 Dollars
This CC cream includes Centella Asiatica. Unfamiliar? Many skincare products incorporate Centella Asiatica, utilizing its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-cellulite, and anti-aging properties. Where do I get this plant, and can I sod my yard with it?! This has 25 SPF and is animal cruelty-free. I mean, they had me with the anti-cellulite and anti-aging, but it’s nice to know they don’t test on animals. Approximately $46 dollars.
Not going to lie, Gurls, this is one of my all time favorite CC creams. This comes in 12 skin tones and includes an SPF of 50! What I always loved about this cream is that it has light-reflecting pigments to give glowing skin without glitter or shimmer! This is a full-coverage cc cream, but it doesn’t feel heavy. According to ULTA, it’s the #1 selling CC cream in America, and I don’t doubt it. One of the key ingredients is Hyaluronic Acid which helps retain water to hydrate and visibly plump, AND minimizes the look of fine lines & wrinkles. A little pricer at $47 dollars, but again, one of my faves.

Finally, this Lune+Aster cream is not light, and not heavy, but a perfect medium coverage. Yes, it’s got sunscreen and an SPF of 50! It’s available in six shades and has vitamin E, hydraulic acid, and sea buckthorn! What is sea buckthorn? Sea Buckthorn, found in Asia and Europe, boasts vitamins A, B1, B2, B6, and C, along with other active ingredients. Traditionally, people have used it to slow down the aging process. Someone import this plant now!
